I’m really wondering if the dad or someone else abused the son and then he turned around and did it to his sister. Either way, this case was shocking and sad. They should not have been on tv with this. My heart goes out to the sister, she is a certified survivor!
The only one you can blame for that is the son who started this case. I agree they shouldn't have been there. The son sounds like he needs help. I'm glad the sister has gotten help.
Yeah but I have to question the mom in this and The sister because she said yhe where getting close again before that happened that means 3 to 4 years after that happened. And he was there in that place living with them.
Interesting that she had no issues throwing her daughter under the bus on national television to win a case against the son. She doesn’t give a crap about either of those kids.
This is absolutely crazy, from the moment that the son started talking I got a creepy vibe and was thinking to myself I bet he using those cameras for his pleasure..... gross gross they are NEVER rehabilitated.
Nobody could have foreseen that bombshell. Totally separate from that is what I've noticed about his demeanor, attitude, monotone, lack of emotion, etc that has become so common in males currently under the age of 30 that use to be extremely rare. My son and all his friends in their mid to late 20's are like a hundred generations removed from my own. As a whole they are so removed emotionally, emasculated and trying to redefine what is naturally male, lack social skills in comparison to every previous generation. I'm proud of my son and love him in every way but it's like he and his generation largely rejects anything masculine and having a really difficult time finding their true selves or place in this world. Not at all the same with my daughter or her friends in the same age group.
Coming from a abusive home myself, l can honestly say whatever was going on with everyone in that household... They barely scratched the surface of their story. This entire situation was heart wrenching to watch! There’s something definitely off with that mother, she seemed so detached!
Did you want her wailing and out of control? I think she was this way for her daughter. She portrayed strength and confidence, not detachment. Detachment would be she wouldn't even be there and would just give into her son.
Yep .. His mother said his father stop speaking to him when he was 7 years old because he S/A the sister. Then she said he was arrested. How was he arrested at 7 years old ? Or did his parents wait until he turned 18 then have the sister file charges against him ? Because if it was reported at the time it happened. Both children would've been taken away. She only mentioned the S/A (AFTER) he started talking about the extreme amount of abuse in the house. His mother really wanted to change the subject because, she probably suspected, He was getting ready to tell the world, what really went on in that house. His mother seems extremely vindictive. Why would she try to destroy her 19 year old son's life. I suspect there is a whole lot of Dirty, going on in that family.
Anyone think that Dad has a partial hand at how this family ended up? The son claims years of abuse as well which may have triggered him to act like his father.
Yeah and mom is probably trying to cover up how long she let the abuse of herself and the kids go on before divorcing dad. The other incident gives a good excuse to make her not look bad. Even if the father hit him (apparently broke his nose?) after the thing with his sister, the father and mother covered up felony child abuse of a minor.
@@tvtvtfan3767 Notice that mom doesn't want to talk about the father's role in all of this. She has likely been a domestic abuse victim, as well. She's trying to keep her shame from showing due to not doing anything. This family has a lot of dark secrets.
Me either!!!! I would have not done that!!! The mother says mistakes she didn't make???? I am sorry there was abuse going on as a mother what did you do to stop it!!!
I'm pretty sure she allowed her mom to say it. You can see her nodding to Michelle before she says it. But still, even though I don't think he would've won the case if they omitted the assault, it _was_ relevant information if they ever wanted to counter his abuse allegation. If they only said "actually, my husdband wanted nothing to do with him after an incident that happened 4 years ago", judge Marilyn probably would've asked for clarification anyway. I don't think they should've aired it, but I think it wasn't out of line to bring it up (since Alexa seems to have agreed to do it).
I am sure she got the permission. You could see her look at her daughter and her daughter nod. It may help her, she is not ashamed and does not need to hide.
You don't even know if that's true. How come she lived in the same house with him all along?! How?! Your brother sexually assault you and you lived for 5 years with him in the same house?! Really?! That's weird! Because in reality, if that really happened, they should have placed him somewhere far away from his sister. That's how it works. I'm very skeptical about this kind of allegations. Especially when the three of them agreed to say that he never had a problem before... That's weird.
I'm not sure that he sexually abused the daughter. If he's guilty, he's guilty. But if he's not, I'm not accusing someone of something that I don't know for sure. Mom seemed like she "couldn't wait" wait to tell that irrelevant detail in the case to "get back" at the son. Mom is a loser. Dad was probably abusive to the son (must have broken his nose at some point, too) and tried to make himself better by using the so-called abuse (we have no facts that it actually happened) as a way to make himself look better. Daughter has issues. Son has issues. Father sounds like he was abusive. Mom doesn't seem to want to talk about anything that happened to the son, just the daughter. Everyone is at fault. Bad parenting.
I will remember...how do you know that? I watched it & I sure didn't pick up on that. He has not been loved by anyone since he was 13. He is not a rapist or everyone would know by now. He made a mistake! Can't someone in the family forgive him? This family has abandon him & he feels mistreated since the age of 13.
@stratfordbaby.... now I know what you mean "he's the one that wanted this on TV". I'll bet he didn't know his Mother would bring up the past of almost 10 years ago & reveal it to hundreds on TV/RUclips! It just shows her unconditional love...she has none. Jacob was a child of 13 then. I am sure he will be very sorry (if not already) for what happened, if he ever quits having to carry the guilt himself. How dare adults not give him the love & understanding....and help....he needed through this! He gave his Sister the Mountain Bike (which is very expensive) & now wanted it back because she doesn't use it! From the age of 13 on he was treated badly by family. They will all pay on judgement day for their self righteousness!
I’m sorry y’all but something is off with the whole family. Normally abusers are abused so where’s dad. I feel for the son. Something is not right with this family
It not normal it a possibility but it a misconception that abusers been abuse. We just know that if you been abuse as a child you are more likely to become an abuser when you older. If I had to guess the son and daughter was very close growing up. During his teen years when he more sexual curious he touch his sister. The dad got mad and disown him. The mom trying to keep the family together try to block it out.
@DtillColorado.... this boy was abused! He got no help through this to understand & learn right from wrong in all situations. Spoiled sisters go through generations too! Her case is traumatic & Jacobs is crime. Kids kill people & only lately do some of them get punished as adults. But Jacob is guilty without knowing the true facts we have no right to even know about this!!!
First of all the judge missed an opportunity here. CLEARLY something happened to the son as well. He’s drinking, he’s despondent and allegedly sexually assaulted his sister at a young age. Does anyone care about what’s going on with him? While I feel bad for his sister, the judge not once considered maybe the dad was doing something to the son or someone else. I can see the hurt in his eyes and voice. Something is troubling him.
I was thinking that too....a lot of times victims of sexual abuse become the abuser themselves. At first I was completely against him....but the more I think and read the comments.....I went back and watched it again....yea, this goes far deeper than a 20min video. WOW. Not sure if this one should have been a televised case. This family clearly has a lot of skeletons in the closet. Yikesssssssss.
@Robin D. and we don't know if it's true that he abused his sister, a statement doesn't make it fact. Also having a mental illness is no excuse to murder people, so those propel should go to jail no matter what and not a mental hospital.
That son looks so lost, and heartbroken. I have a feeling he was abused as a kid and therefore thought it was a normal thing to do to his sister. Its so sad. They all need help.
Judge kept prying to understand all the confusion so the mother asked the daughter before sharing to offer some clarity. It was quite foggy at first. Hard to understand the tension.
I am an SA/R survivor and my heart hurts for the sister. The mother had no right to bring that up - it should have been up to the daughter bring up on her own. I've had family members bring up my own traumas to garner their own sympathies and its nauseating. (Despite her saying she was okay with it being mentioned.) I feel like the plantif went through something similar tbh. Abused people, can tend to also become abusers, sadly. Acting out situations they've been through. He brought up 7 being the age things changed with his father... What exactly happened to that boy at 7? I feel like he was absolutely abused, in all the ways he mentioned and perhaps more. I feel like the mom refused to see or believe it. Leaving him broken and him in turn breaking his sister. Both children need healing and my heart hurts for them both! 😔💔
If you watch the part where the mother brings up the daughters SA, you can see she nods her head to the mother and then the mother explains the story. The daughter was giving her permission.
If he can do that to sister and still deny it he's a horrid monster who doesn't deserve even an ounce of pity or sympathy and apparently the judge felt the same way toward him she couldn't rule in the mother and sister's behalf fast enough.
Stop reading so much into what MAY have occurred and concentrate on what HAS occurred. I am not a drinker and, yet, have come through gr grandmother, grandmother, mother being abusive alcoholics. Why would I want to continue that legacy and HURT others? We all have a choice! I could have played the ‘victim’ but CHOSE not to. Also, the daughter MAY have wanted her mother to voice the past trauma. You and I don’t know what May have been discussed. So, let’s just concentrate on what we know has occurred.
@@dorothypage7410 the mother clearly asked the daughter before mentioning it, so maybe YOU may want to actually watch the video before going into attack mode on people.
Something about this mom doesn't sit right with me. Why would she announce to millions of viewers what happened to her daughter? She could have worded it differently to protect her daughter's privacy if winning the case was that necessary. I believe there's a lot of truth to what the son is saying...
@@7-up813 you hate women with a rage and intensity that scares me even more than this boy. I wouldn't be surprised to hear you had done terrible things to females. You think this girl "enjoyed" being raped? Is that what you tell yourself? You are human garbage, and need to spend the rest of your life sealed in a wall, alone.
@@TreasureOne Whoa whoa take a breather. No one said anyone enjoys being rape, you are now putting words into people's mouths. What I am pointing out is rape did not occur because of discrepancies in the timeline of events. I suggest you calm down and re-read my comment to understand why the females are lying in this specific case.
This is awful! He probably did assault his sister but I'm convinced that he's a victim as well. The mother had no right to expose that family secret on television. I don't understand how the judge couldn't see how despondent and detached from reality the son is. His aura is a blank. He's dead internally and his exterior shows it.
This made me respect the judge even more. She immediately stopped and asked if she was OK with her mom sharing that. Seemed as if she was asking because she would have made sure it was edited out of the episode had she had a problem.
The mother was crying for help in the most dignified way she could. The son has fallen under bad company and the two women are not equipped to deal with him. The son needs to leave and make his own way in the world.
15 min in I'm thinking some part of the story is missing, how nobody wants anything to do with him....minute 16 min and BAM! I was not expecting that! My prayers go out for them. Maybe father molested the son? I'm going to lose sleep overthinking this tonight.
You are right. The smirk was evil. The mother's demeanor was much more bizarre than everyone else's. Got a strange vibe. I noticed the smirk and the look on her face more than anything else, scary.
@@S.K.Smith-Greennaw. There was something weird with the mother too. What mother would instantly call the police if your child goes out at night with a bat… when you know wildlife is around
Something isn’t right with this family at all. I believe he was abused and turned around and abused his sister. There is a total lack of personhood with him. He seems empty. The way the mother just blurted out her daughters personal business, almost like a slam dunk to win the case. This was just sad and disturbing.
@samantha7384.... I'm sure she knows her worth after all all good attention has gone to her. There is more to this story than is told. We don't know, they told us what they wanted us to know. For all we know she was a participant in this trauma & is afraid to say, or the parents may be protecting her. We don't know. We do know Jacob has been abused, hated, blamed, unloved, taught his word means nothing Can't you see the dazed look in his eyes, can't you see he is dead inside. He was a little boy too & should have been guided through this trauma. We all make mistakes & sometimes bad enough to need help to get through our mistakes. The best thing is for Jacob to get away from them all! As an example you saw how she "helped" him with the DUI. Why didn't she just leave him alone like he wanted! He would have been so much better had she left him alone & sat it out in jail for the DUI and suffered the penalty for the DUI...a good lesson learned!!
I'm not condoning his behavior by all means, but I can tell by his eyes that he been through some shit. They all have and I hope they can heal and somehow go to family therapy to mend their broken household 🙁🙁 I know it will be difficult for the sister to forgive him, but I just hope they all find peace
I agree. I feel the father was being abusive. IMO The mother either knew but said nothing or enabled it. I.E. told the son, he deserved to be abused or something along those lines. He could have also told her and she just didn't believe it because the father was that sneaky. Doesn't excuse his behavior but this dude clearly needs mental help. I find it odd the father wanted nothing to do with his son after the alleged sexual assault. I'm not saying they made it up. However, at the same time, we can only go by what he was charged with as a minor. I find it strange that the father wanted nothing to do with his son after that. Clearly, they are all hiding something.
@@bb120308 I suspect that the father was abusive, mom probably was also abused or at least knew about the father abusing the son and let it go on for a long time, as happens very frequently.
The sister gets plenty of love & pity & everything she need to survive! You don't know anything about this except their side of the story. Maybe she participated & is to afraid or ashamed to admit it. Kids lie! He got nothing but blame, hate, no love, no understanding, no help, no family! Anyone can see he is dead inside & barely hanging on! So unjust! So Sad! I am sorry what ever happened, happened to her but I guarantee you there is a lot more to this story & Jacob has been the one to suffer his life since the age of 13. He was a child too!!!
@father-of-Death.....my heart goes out to her (sister) too because she has been pampered & babied all through this & never really got it taken care (helped), now she feels sorry for herself & doesn't really know how to cope. She has been taught her Brother is wrong & she was wronged as with the bike HE gave her, she's not using it & he needs it, but she's not going to let him have it back, the whole family is in on "hiding" the bike so he can't get/use it! They are so bad to the Brother, not helping him through this too! I am a woman, not a man & I can understand the situation. We will never know the real story, just the persecution to Jacob with no help at all just rejection.
I absolutely agree the mom looks very suspicious! And for the Brother to do that to his sister, it was extremely WRONG it seems like there’s more to this story.
@puppylove1165 you bet it's wrong of the Brother & of course you are assuming the Sister had no part in it & where is the help Jacob needed through all this? He's their child too. Many, Many children play sex & a lot of parents never find out. As long as they have told on Jacob, why don't they tell the whole story? I don't feel they would tell the truth! I feel sorry for the Sister too, but no more than I feel sorry for him. They don't need sympathy, they need to understand why that happened, how they shouldn't do that & serious help through the whole thing.
I definitely also agree that this whole family needs therapy, but I see emptiness in his eyes. There is nothing there anymore, and that is both sad and scary.
I suffered with every type of abuse from my elder brother for 16 years, sexually 5 years, these people have no sympathy from me, they deserve what they get. I didn’t abuse anyone else because of my abuse
@@prairierider7569 hey kiddo I had someone else in my life not knowing how bad the damage in your life compared to mine yet I'd say it gets better You won't be proud or sad you just live ,a happy life Small circle~
ophiecat That is the look of a guilty person who thinks that there was nothing wrong with what he did to his sister. Unfortunately, I know the look, I have seen it in a real courtroom. No remorse, no reaction, just dead eyes.
She was 13 and he was 14. It seems like they put MUTUAL behavior on him and convinced her that she did nothing wrong. She would be just as guilty of molesting him.
@@michaeldelyjah5696 What the fuck? How did you get that out of the few seconds they spent talking about it? I can only assume you're confusing statutory rape and assault with just... molestation. By your logic, one teen could never molest another no matter what because...they're both underage, I guess? I don't really understand your point. If he touched her without her consent then no, she was NOT "just as guilty of molesting him"
@@Bakaferret I think he means if they consent to sexual contact, we don't know the story. Just because they say something happened doesn't mean it did, but it also doesn't mean it didn't happen. If they both consented to sexual contact, than both were in the wrong, if he hurt her, it is possible it could be because he was a victim himself when he was younger. Who knows, we only heard a few seconds or the story.
@@michaeldelyjah5696 Shame on you for attempting to victim shame a young woman who was abused by her brother at the age of 13. Disgusting. Comments like yours are why people who have been sexually abused are scared to come forward. Your comment is akin to the 'she was asking for it' attempted defense of rape.
This is so sad..SHAME to that mom. If your son is SA his own sister, claims abuse, is an alcoholic at the age of 20 obviously there’s a bigger issue here. Hope both son and daughter are getting the help the need and deserve.
Shame on the mom... and not the ahole brother who raped his sister and terrorized his mother and sister? What is wrong with these people making such abnormal comments? Are you set up by rapists or what??
The plaintiffs eyes always reminds me of this quote from Stephen King’s Misery: Paul was frightened by what he saw on her face, because what he saw was nothing; the black nothing of a crevasse folded into an alpine meadow, a blackness where no flowers grew and into which the drop might be long.
honestly thats not what i see at all. weirdly i see pain aswell. the dad thats misteryously out of the picture is probably a big factor to all this. smells like abuser was also abused. makes no sense to me for an abuser to want to distance himself from his victim, unless her presence in his life is an active reminder of not only his horrible act but also something bad that he tries to repress. i might be reading too much into it, but im not basing this on movie type shit, this is behavioral patterns that you see on certain victims. instead of demonizing him i honestly just wish they both got the help they need, cause his behavior is not normal, but not in aserial abuser kind of way, man is shaking through all of it, its really sad.
@taylorbrickman3872 ....right! She sounds like his worst enemy. He said it was not unusual to carry a bat when going for a walk! His Mother knew that. Why couldn't just leave him alone? He didn't want her help with that DUI. Why did you take it the, was what he was asked? Bullied again until he doesn't even try to defend himself. They even went to the extent of hiding the bike so he couldn't get it back. The Dad helped! Maybe he needed it to get to work! They didn't care, they didn't even talk to him about it!!! I don't feel sorry for Jacob, I'm SAD for him. I can tell they never listen to him but are the first to think ill of him. Even prisons work with people to make life better, but not this family....he's guilty as charged.
They brought everything in the lawsuit that they could bring to return to him. That’s when you know that they HONESTLY wanted to be rid of him and everything he represented. They wanted him to win so he could let them be. This was so sad. Being abused by a close family member is confusing, hurtful and painful. I hope everyone gets the help they need.
The way that the judge literally dropped everything related to the case to comfort and offer words of encouragement to the sister got me good. Furthermore, the fact that he quite literally turned to stone when the allegations were brought up made me believe it completely. I think he thought she'd be too ashamed to say anything and that he could control the narrative of the household dynamic.
@kelslskfnvksfe ...... He didn't turn to stone because he was guilty. He has been accused so much, always the wrong one, not loved, abused, found guilty by family, never listened too until he is dead inside. An example of his treatment....the way his Mother "helped" him with his DUI! He would have been better off had she left him alone. She got him in more trouble & then he had the DUI to take care of too after her help! If help is what you call it!!!! He didn't want her help & had moved out & away from them all to get away from them! There is no one so blind & someone one that doesn't see! We don't know enough about this to be able to make a judgement. We heard the Mother & daughters side only!!!!!
I'm surprised any of them agreed to come on the People's Court. There's so much disturbing pain in their past... Very surprised they would all willingly chose to bring it to national TV. They don't seem like the types of people who enjoy airing out their dirty laundry. I guess money is a huge motivator.
Letting it out is one of the best way to heal. A way for all involved to be heard and in the end tie a knot to close off the past and begin to move on with life
How does a mother say she is done with her son with a smirk on her face? There are 3 sides to this story. His side, their side, and the truth somewhere down the middle.
My thought exactly! There's more she's not saying. But regardless, the daughter was the one who really stood out. She seemed like she was the most mature and had a better grasp on life than her mom.
My point exactly. There’s some things that the mother and daughter are not saying and it seems kind of weird. People can talk about him all they want to. Not saying that he didn’t do what she accused him of not saying that he did or didn’t do what she’s accusing him of. But it seems like she says that she never experienced that behavior with him and that they were super close. But then in another breath then they’re throwing out these little things like he was such a terrible person so it’s like which one is it. It definitely does seem like something happened to him and they don’t want to talk about that, they just wanna paint this picture of him.
My thoughts also, in one breath she says he sexually abuse his sister but then she also says she doesn't understand what happened because the three of them where close until he brings her to court, smells fishy.
That young lady seems like such a sweetheart. I pray for her recovery in this. I know how difficult things like this effects someone's life. My prayers go out to her and her heart.
My heart goes out the all of them. Yes, the son is disturbed and, I am by no means at all defending him. But they're all a very damaged family, and I hope they find some kinda peace.
Don’t matter what happened to him. When has it ever been ok to sexually assault any definitely your sister. They was prolly home schooled and stayed in the middle of no where they whole life.
@@omarbagent9829 No one said it was okay. Unless you're reading imaginary comments. Just said it's a very damaged family.

All in all, it's sad. Hopfully they all find peace and happiness.
House Krell Did I say you said it was ok? I’m just stating it don’t matter what the predictor went through at this point. He is not a victim anymore if that’s the case! The fact that you said “you don’t mean to defend him” you’re defending him and trying to justify his actions because he went through a little trauma as a child. Fuck all that.

No tv judge is good for this case. The person that was bad for this was whoever was involved when the alleged molestation occurred. That family clearly has issues and it's crazy that more years passed with them all together.
The fact that the father is not in the picture any longer and that the mother was so casual in just openly stating that her son did that to her daughter (you really have to watch the video to understand the gravity of the situation) really makes me feel like the parents are a big part of why there’s so much wrong with this family. It’s so sad knowing that this kind of stuff is capable of happening. Nobody deserves to go through anything of this magnitude.
My dad physically and verbally abused my brother... Doesn't give my brother any permission for him to have sexually assault me most of my childhood (8 years)... He now still plays the victim after assaulting another minor and going through court... He refuses to take responsibility and grow up, he's babied and mum does everything for him...I was abused growing up and have never abused anyone.... Just because you are abused isnt an excuse to become an abuser.
Typical male identified nonsense. He was a teen when he made the CHOICE to assult his sister but of course you feel for him. Disgusting coddling of a grown man.
@@tinabod8321 it's not called "permission" when it's about a child. between the ages of 9-14, although the body starts maturing, not all persons around that age have the discernment to know better -- which is why there is a law specifically for statutory r*pe. most children act on feelings and instinct more than on rationality (which is why it's so easy for people to abuse them). however, I know there are some that indeed are evil, but that's just like the fable of the frog and the scorpion: one can only give what they have.
I agree I think both the daughter and son were abused in the family, the mother to me seems like she knows there is more to this story than what she is telling.
Amen. They spitefully threw that in . The smirking the whole time. What does a 13 year old learn that. I see plenty mistakes the mom made. SMH shame of her.
I disagree. The more exposure of stuff like this the better for others to speak out. I also commend the sister for her bravery. We as a society have to stop shaming those that want to speak out about sexual abuse and trauma. Not speaking about it and holding it all in is what leads to suicide.
So I was there I’m in the navy blue shirt front row behind him, the judge paused filming and she felt there is for sure something darker in the family, and alot of us were crying. I was shocked it aired or is on here
@@ronsbrat525 they’re not the same. Daughter has criss cross holes moms just has small diamond holes. Similar style but not exact same, u can see the difference at the exit interview when they turn to leave. I only notice bc I read this comment right before that and specifically looked to see if they were the same.
This is my thing yes we appreciate mothers for giving us life but at the same time non of us asked to be here... therefore we're human and want to do things for us....I have a mother that threw away all my things when I first tried to move out and she fought me every step of the way because she didn't want me to move out. But that still doesn't give her the right to physically, verbally,or emotionally abuse me just because she's my "mother". Our generation really needs to break this cycle.! I firmly stand on that. Just because you share the same blood as another person:relative,that doesn't give them the right to mistreat you.! Period.
1st of all, this is not LIVE tv. The show is taped and edited. If the sister had not given her permission, it would not have been broadcast. 2nd, the judge asked why the rift with the father and the mother answered the question with the sister's permission. The parties are vetted. They know beforehand what the issues are. The producers do not broadcast anything that would make them liable. I find it hard to believe that the son would consent to be on this show knowing the allegation would likely come out.
I’m so glad their is people like you who read between the lines. Who actually see the small things that the majority miss constantly when watching these shows. It kills me how blind people are. They go off whoever is screaming the loudest yet miss the small quiet things being said. I catch little stuff like that ALL the time on these court shows and everyone bashes the wrong person CONSTANTLY🤦🏽♀️
Omg . This case just got deeper than I had wanted . At first I was like wtf why is the mom so willing to disown the son but wow .. I wonder if something happened to the son .
Does this 19 year old "adult" realize that he needs to assume some grown-up responsibilities? The sister's assertion that her brother was different after returning from Job Corps is also troubling.
Exactly! I think something happened to him there... they do live in dorm style arrangements. And it’s usually like lost kids who don’t really finish school so you have all types of people there. Something definitely happened to him
Or because he was trying to out the dad and mom for abuse and they couldnt have that hapoen so they sent him away. I bet the dad abused him and either the mom abused him too or she let it happen, which makes her just as bad.
The Judge is all for “mama” ..hiw unfortunate! Looking at the son’ “deadness” i feel for him the most and the mama so heartlesscand manipulative makes her very creepy . She ‘s a narcissist and the father is abusive .
Right. These judges are freemasons etc anyways and since its reality tv its doctored up. Anyways.. If more people knew about narcissistic personality disorder and how family units with 1 or more narcissists operate, this case would make a bit more sense. Golden child, scapegoat/black sheep. The mother absolutely seemed like a narcissist. I grew up with multiple and they will be devils behind closed doors but everyone on the outside thinks they are saints, and they even convince people who know what they are to team up against you. The reason the son seems to have dead or flat expression is most likely from all the abuse and "grey rocking". The mother and father may have been jointly abusive to both the kids, but the daughter sucks up as a saftey percausion as the golden child. The children can end up becoming narcissists too. Both the mother and father could have sexually abused their own children. This does not excuse the son sexually abusing the sister, if that event is true.
you're just going to walk right past his victim and try to hold his hands. are you one of those people who send love letters to serial killers in jail because they look meek and tender?

What a sick case. Can’t believe the plaintiff’s nerve to sue his mother after what he did to his sister/family. They should get a restraining order on him
Carlos Arias They don’t have to, he’s on his own, no one wants him around and he doesn’t want to be around them. I can see why the father didn’t want his son around, I can’t imagine what that father felt like, looking into the eyes of the person that sexually assaulted his daughter, let alone living in the same house.
@@marymonson2187 maybe the father sexually assaulted the son and didn't want to get caught. I feel like something might have happened to the boy when be was younger. He could have been a victim of sexual assaults too.
As a victim of s3xual Assault. That boy has CLEAR SIGNS of someone who was assaulted themselves! If he did really assault his sister then it clear he learned it from somewhere
“if he did really assault his sister” as if she was just faking the tears and lied about being in therapy to cope? Please check yourself and your tendency to create possible backstories for men and refusal to take women at their word.
"Dad" is out of the picture because of parental alienation, one of a single mother's favorite weapons. Clearly, "mom" has issues, bouncing from house to house to house, using one child against another. The best thing the plaintiff can do to improve his life is shut her out completely. She is an absolute drama and control freak, and you can tell how much she's loving it.
@@piiweepiggy9775 you need to watch the video again. The mother clearly Whispers to the daughter and the daughter nods her head. The daughter gave her permission.
“It’s unfortunate that it came down to this for .. mistakes that I didn’t make” .. what does that mean lady!?? There’s 100% more to this story! You can see the pain in him & sister’s eyes! I hope everyone in the case heals!
I never took away from that fact that his sister is a victim!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He was a young child that did that.. thats learned behavior!! Which means someone did that to him. His mother saying “over the mistakes that I didn’t make” is telling which is why I pointed it out!!
OMG, I just want to go threw my screen and give his sister a hug! Being a victim of sexual abuse myself I know what she is going through even though it was not my brother who did it to me it was a close family friend
I feel like this goes deeper than what's been said. It's sad when a person is drinking so much to the point that they're almost passed out. It's a whole messed up situation.
Poor baby! She looked like she KNEW her mom was gonna bring that up in open court. Then, he looked hurt by the story too. He’s obviously going through some shit too
Looking at some of these comments is so disturbing...The guy clearly has issues rather they be personal or something that developed within the family. But for some of you to just say "this guys so creepy" or "I get creepy vibes" ...Something happened in this guys life to create this personality and it's important not to judge but to learn. Whatever the case may be, I hope that he finds peace and happiness.
@@zerotodona1495 Ah so your one of those people who will believe anything someone says. How's your cars warranty? It might be time to extend that warranty.
That was insane. That took a 180 degree hard left turn off a cliff out of no where! How can that kid even look at himself after what he did and is doing. Smh
Some things I find odd... The mother seems relatively unaffected by her daughters trauma ... rather, she is seen smiling as if she was vindicated yet her daughter is in shambles... The son mentioned that he has been the black sheep of the family since he was 7, and whenever "someone" needed a scapegoat, they used him... The daughter said that the son bought her a bike for her birthday ... I'm wondering how close they were, and why were they so close if he sexually abused her? Was the bike a token of his remorse? Were they so close because they were made to keep a secret, and we don't actually know the full story about the abuse? Were they protecting the father? The son was arrested for a DUI and the mother said this is the first time he has acted out in this way ... why was he drinking so much to be 3x the legal limit? He was alone when this happened, so I don't think it's likely that he was drinking in a social setting ... and he went for a walk afterwards with a baseball bat ... what was he trying to do? The mother was concerned about him doing something with the bat, so who was he going to see with that bat? I understand family drama, but when a child sexually abuses another child, I don't understand why people think it's a good idea for the abused child to live with their abuser ... she seems very strong and very empathetic, but I keep wondering how they managed to become close if he sexually abused her? Even as kids, I would never have a relationship with a sibling who had done that to me ... I've never been in that situation, but I can't even wrap my head around it ... I understand families need healing but THAT seems like something you keep your abused child away from... As others have said, there's definitely more to this story, and I am very interested to know what role the father played in this ... I kind of hate catching a glimpse of their life and having so many questions. It was a really good episode though.
I was wondering the same things .... so they became close and he bought her a bike after he assaulted her ? He must have gone to job core at around 17 ... so that means that for 3 years after the assault they were somehow close ... I don’t get it
The mom used her daughter’s abuse to win the case. Disgusting. It had nothing to do with case. The brother needs help, but there are holes in this story
Agreed! Why would the Mom take the 2 kids who the sexual assault just happened with and keep them together? Why would Dad leave Mom and daughter alone with his son who according to them just molested his sister? Something isn't right in this story. Mom drops this bombshell after it appears their losing ground on the bike issue. Seems like the cameras were most likely given to the daughter as well. I think the son had been being abused since early adolescence and either Mom was complicent or complacent. I'm not saying the son is right or ok if he abused his sister. I'm saying something isn't adding up in this whole story and I think the judge took a pretty one sided approach in the heat of the moment. There is way more to this story! Very sad.
The judge made her decision on the family story. She didn't keep it to what they were there for. The daughter gets therapy but he doesn't? This family gave up on him.
@@superduperkid3143 he isn't a kid anymore. Too late for that. How stupid are you to discredit this victim and let this happen to other girls as it most likely will? Thanks
So I was there I’m in the navy blue shirt front row behind him, the judge paused filming and she felt there is for sure something darker in the family, and alot of us were crying. I was shocked it aired or is on here the judge also wanted to know who casted them and what production assistant was on top of it she wasn’t happy at all.
@naufhijazi8980... The judge didn't act so great herself!!!! She doesn't know all the facts, just what the poor Mother & Sister said. Jacob was mistreated, hurt, bused, unloved, misunderstood & the charge of guilt was all on his shoulders!!!! No one asked him if it was OK to let the world know this family tragedy! Just the sister! He had been so abused with this that his eyes glazed over K& he went into his brain protective helpless trans! You don't know that the sister didn't participate in the trauma & just afraid to say, or maybe Mom & Dad are are protecting her! The girl is well re-hursed in self pity. Insteading of dealing with it to make them both strong in handling the trauma, they have made him the guilty one & her the self pitying sole she will probably always be when dealing with this!
@@judyjudyjudy1841 that’s a big stretch or assumption to say but I do understand where you’re coming from as an outsider. i was there and between filming the judge was not happy this was even brought onto the show as a case, she asked which producer worked on it, and was concerned given the information as usually minors who abuse are abused themselves, that is a different matter and belongs in criminal court or special victims and not her court room which is civil cases, her being an actual judge made her highly aware of svu cases or the types of situations that create them and that this was the absolute wrong place entirely for it. It is filmed live btw, only minor cuts or edits of her responses, judge shows like this are entertainment but actually involve real law and legal proceedings. This was way way way out of place and pocket for the type of show/ cases people’s court has. I am shocked this aired actually or is still on RUclips I was apart of more than a few audiences for this show cause it’s filmed in my hometown and I can tell you they do not have situations like this ever
@@Lokislookbook77 I appreciate your response, thank you! It isn't a big stretch or assumption, I have lived life and I know what I have said can be true. I am sad for Jacob. No matter what he says, he has been found guilty by all. He needed help through this whole ordeal, but never got it. I refuse to watch it again, even though it has aired twice in the last week & I had seen it before. Why won't someone that can, take it off the air? I don't know if it is worse to keep it secret, like when I was a child or make it so public, & ruin his life like they have. The poor Sisters life hasn't been so great either Both ways are bad. My brother-in-law got away with what he did to me & he had an encounter with another girl. One other that I know, I have no clue if the "other" girl was penetrated or not. I was not penetrated, but I suffered emotionally. I never thought I was as good as the other little girls I went to school with. I felt "it was my fault". I felt dirty. I can't even imagine the horrors of being penetrated! It took years to deal with it in my mind. I think when my brother-in-law passed away, I finally had relief! I remember reading about a girl that had been abused (sexually) & was told by ignorant people that "she should make up with her Dad because she would be sorry she didn't some day!" Fortunately the answer to her was "usually they are relieved when a molester dies". I was & I think that is when I could finally come to terms. My Mother called me, one day, and said he died. My response was "Thank God". He was a useless piece of flesh! Who knows how many other little girls he messed up their childhood. Jacob was a child, young foolish and maybe wasn't a guilty alone as people thought. No matter what, he deserved help through this tragedy too!
As someone who has dealt with a lot of young people from Job Corps- no one goes to Job Corps for a year-and-a-half without already having some serious problems. I’m betting that it was done to get him away from the sister. It would fit the timeline.

I’m really wondering if the dad or someone else abused the son and then he turned around and did it to his sister. Either way, this case was shocking and sad. They should not have been on tv with this. My heart goes out to the sister, she is a certified survivor!
I was thinking about that as well there was just so much with this family it’s really sad
I agree.
The only one you can blame for that is the son who started this case. I agree they shouldn't have been there. The son sounds like he needs help. I'm glad the sister has gotten help.
Alot wasn't said in this case...they got skeletons!
Yeah but I have to question the mom in this and The sister because she said yhe where getting close again before that happened that means 3 to 4 years after that happened. And he was there in that place living with them.
Something isn't adding up. I'm not convinced the mother is telling the entire story. Idk... but sounds like they all need help.
I agree
mom sounds not right. projects hate for dad on son
Interesting that she had no issues throwing her daughter under the bus on national television to win a case against the son. She doesn’t give a crap about either of those kids.
I agree, something isn't right.
@@julnjus not to surprising when you consider that after the son raped her daughter she moved out and took the son with her - not the daughter.

I do believe that there's more to this story.
This is absolutely crazy, from the moment that the son started talking I got a creepy vibe and was thinking to myself I bet he using those cameras for his pleasure..... gross gross they are NEVER rehabilitated.

This is one of the most disturbing cases I've ever seen on The People's Court
Nobody could have foreseen that bombshell. Totally separate from that is what I've noticed about his demeanor, attitude, monotone, lack of emotion, etc that has become so common in males currently under the age of 30 that use to be extremely rare. My son and all his friends in their mid to late 20's are like a hundred generations removed from my own. As a whole they are so removed emotionally, emasculated and trying to redefine what is naturally male, lack social skills in comparison to every previous generation. I'm proud of my son and love him in every way but it's like he and his generation largely rejects anything masculine and having a really difficult time finding their true selves or place in this world. Not at all the same with my daughter or her friends in the same age group.
Neither did I. Whoa.
Cagey
That's a fact
Coming from a abusive home myself, l can honestly say whatever was going on with everyone in that household... They barely scratched the surface of their story. This entire situation was heart wrenching to watch! There’s something definitely off with that mother, she seemed so detached!
She summed it up at the end. Perfectly. When Doug asked how she felt after all that- she meant it when she said "Good".
When
Did you want her wailing and out of control? I think she was this way for her daughter. She portrayed strength and confidence, not detachment. Detachment would be she wouldn't even be there and would just give into her son.
@@chrisshaffer2672 well said. I am appalled by these comments blaming the mother!!! I dont get where thats coming from.
Agree.
Yep .. His mother said his father stop speaking to him when he was 7 years old because he S/A the sister. Then she said he was arrested. How was he arrested at 7 years old ? Or did his parents wait until he turned 18 then have the sister file charges against him ? Because if it was reported at the time it happened. Both children would've been taken away. She only mentioned the S/A (AFTER) he started talking about the extreme amount of abuse in the house. His mother really wanted to change the subject because, she probably suspected, He was getting ready to tell the world, what really went on in that house. His mother seems extremely vindictive. Why would she try to destroy her 19 year old son's life. I suspect there is a whole lot of Dirty, going on in that family.
This case had more twists and turns than an episode of Law & Order SVU! Holy shit!
You nailed it! Perfect example, this got really deep and took turns I was not ready for
For only 20 mins, HELL YEAH🤯
Anyone think that Dad has a partial hand at how this family ended up? The son claims years of abuse as well which may have triggered him to act like his father.
yep
Yeah and mom is probably trying to cover up how long she let the abuse of herself and the kids go on before divorcing dad. The other incident gives a good excuse to make her not look bad. Even if the father hit him (apparently broke his nose?) after the thing with his sister, the father and mother covered up felony child abuse of a minor.
@@user-tb2jy9lu3d what do you mean, he was arrested for it
@@tvtvtfan3767 Notice that mom doesn't want to talk about the father's role in all of this. She has likely been a domestic abuse victim, as well. She's trying to keep her shame from showing due to not doing anything. This family has a lot of dark secrets.
The boy appears to be a socialpath. I don't know if he were in the best home he'd have turned out differently.
I cannot believe her mother outed her daughters trauma like that, my heart breaks for her. The way she closed her eyes when her mother said that....
Me either!!!! I would have not done that!!! The mother says mistakes she didn't make???? I am sorry there was abuse going on as a mother what did you do to stop it!!!
I'm pretty sure she allowed her mom to say it. You can see her nodding to Michelle before she says it. But still, even though I don't think he would've won the case if they omitted the assault, it _was_ relevant information if they ever wanted to counter his abuse allegation. If they only said "actually, my husdband wanted nothing to do with him after an incident that happened 4 years ago", judge Marilyn probably would've asked for clarification anyway. I don't think they should've aired it, but I think it wasn't out of line to bring it up (since Alexa seems to have agreed to do it).
I am sure she got the permission. You could see her look at her daughter and her daughter nod. It may help her, she is not ashamed and does not need to hide.
Because of the edits, it’s impossible to know for sure, but it looks like the mom asked her just before she said it.
I feel like the mom and sister are smart and they might have known that this could possibly come up so they probably talked about it before hand.
This is by far the saddest case I've ever heard on people's court

Agreed. I got serious creep vibes from him from the beginning!
You don't even know if that's true. How come she lived in the same house with him all along?! How?! Your brother sexually assault you and you lived for 5 years with him in the same house?! Really?! That's weird! Because in reality, if that really happened, they should have placed him somewhere far away from his sister. That's how it works. I'm very skeptical about this kind of allegations. Especially when the three of them agreed to say that he never had a problem before... That's weird.
I'm not sure that he sexually abused the daughter. If he's guilty, he's guilty. But if he's not, I'm not accusing someone of something that I don't know for sure. Mom seemed like she "couldn't wait" wait to tell that irrelevant detail in the case to "get back" at the son. Mom is a loser. Dad was probably abusive to the son (must have broken his nose at some point, too) and tried to make himself better by using the so-called abuse (we have no facts that it actually happened) as a way to make himself look better. Daughter has issues. Son has issues. Father sounds like he was abusive. Mom doesn't seem to want to talk about anything that happened to the son, just the daughter. Everyone is at fault. Bad parenting.
Jone they litterally said after that happenned they moved him out. Unclog your ears dude lol
Remember, he's the one that wanted this on TV.
I will remember...how do you know that? I watched it & I sure didn't pick up on that. He has not been loved by anyone since he was 13. He is not a rapist or everyone would know by now. He made a mistake! Can't someone in the family forgive him? This family has abandon him & he feels mistreated since the age of 13.
@stratfordbaby.... now I know what you mean "he's the one that wanted this on TV". I'll bet he didn't know his Mother would bring up the past of almost 10 years ago & reveal it to hundreds on TV/RUclips! It just shows her unconditional love...she has none. Jacob was a child of 13 then. I am sure he will be very sorry (if not already) for what happened, if he ever quits having to carry the guilt himself. How dare adults not give him the love & understanding....and help....he needed through this! He gave his Sister the Mountain Bike (which is very expensive) & now wanted it back because she doesn't use it! From the age of 13 on he was treated badly by family. They will all pay on judgement day for their self righteousness!

If I had to guess the son and daughter was very close growing up. During his teen years when he more sexual curious he touch his sister. The dad got mad and disown him. The mom trying to keep the family together try to block it out.
@Brooklyn Malone actually thst very rare most family never address it and actually shame the victim to hide it
Abuse runs through families generation by generation. How tragic and sad.
@DtillColorado.... this boy was abused! He got no help through this to understand & learn right from wrong in all situations. Spoiled sisters go through generations too! Her case is traumatic & Jacobs is crime. Kids kill people & only lately do some of them get punished as adults. But Jacob is guilty without knowing the true facts we have no right to even know about this!!!
First of all the judge missed an opportunity here. CLEARLY something happened to the son as well. He’s drinking, he’s despondent and allegedly sexually assaulted his sister at a young age. Does anyone care about what’s going on with him? While I feel bad for his sister, the judge not once considered maybe the dad was doing something to the son or someone else. I can see the hurt in his eyes and voice. Something is troubling him.
your right I hate this judge for ignoring him
I DEFINITELY AGREE! SOMEONE MOLESTED HIM AS WELL....PROBABLY THE DAD WHEN THIS ALL CAME OUT....TRAGIC
I was thinking that too....a lot of times victims of sexual abuse become the abuser themselves. At first I was completely against him....but the more I think and read the comments.....I went back and watched it again....yea, this goes far deeper than a 20min video. WOW.

This mother is outrageous! No real mother would reveal such private information on TV and to the world.
She actually asked the daughter if it was ok for her to reveal the information. The daughter acknowledged it was ok.
Judge kept prying to understand all the confusion so the mother asked the daughter before sharing to offer some clarity. It was quite foggy at first. Hard to understand the tension.
The judge asked you fool.
He sexually abused someone but the mother is outrageous for sharing what the daughter was okay with her sharing...?
Really the mom really tried not to say it the whole time
I am an SA/R survivor and my heart hurts for the sister. The mother had no right to bring that up - it should have been up to the daughter bring up on her own. I've had family members bring up my own traumas to garner their own sympathies and its nauseating. (Despite her saying she was okay with it being mentioned.)
I feel like the plantif went through something similar tbh. Abused people, can tend to also become abusers, sadly. Acting out situations they've been through.
He brought up 7 being the age things changed with his father... What exactly happened to that boy at 7? I feel like he was absolutely abused, in all the ways he mentioned and perhaps more. I feel like the mom refused to see or believe it. Leaving him broken and him in turn breaking his sister.
Both children need healing and my heart hurts for them both! 😔💔
If you watch the part where the mother brings up the daughters SA, you can see she nods her head to the mother and then the mother explains the story. The daughter was giving her permission.
If he can do that to sister and still deny it he's a horrid monster who doesn't deserve even an ounce of pity or sympathy and apparently the judge felt the same way toward him she couldn't rule in the mother and sister's behalf fast enough.
Clearly it was agreed to ahead of time.
Stop reading so much into what MAY have occurred and concentrate on what HAS occurred. I am not a drinker and, yet, have come through gr grandmother, grandmother, mother being abusive alcoholics. Why would I want to continue that legacy and HURT others? We all have a choice! I could have played the ‘victim’ but CHOSE not to. Also, the daughter MAY have wanted her mother to voice the past trauma. You and I don’t know what May have been discussed. So, let’s just concentrate on what we know has occurred.

This is awful! He probably did assault his sister but I'm convinced that he's a victim as well. The mother had no right to expose that family secret on television. I don't understand how the judge couldn't see how despondent and detached from reality the son is. His aura is a blank. He's dead internally and his exterior shows it.
This made me respect the judge even more. She immediately stopped and asked if she was OK with her mom sharing that. Seemed as if she was asking because she would have made sure it was edited out of the episode had she had a problem.
The mother was crying for help in the most dignified way she could. The son has fallen under bad company and the two women are not equipped to deal with him. The son needs to leave and make his own way in the world.
They would have taken it out of TV if the daughter would have said she wasn’t ok
The hell are u talking about that disgusting boy deserves a fucking prison sentence he got off easy with his hopefully shameful secret being exposed
Agreed whole heartedly...but if you what when the mom said it, she clearly got permission from the daughter to set the record straight.

We do know Jacob has been abused, hated, blamed, unloved, taught his word means nothing Can't you see the dazed look in his eyes, can't you see he is dead inside. He was a little boy too & should have been guided through this trauma. We all make mistakes & sometimes bad enough to need help to get through our mistakes. The best thing is for Jacob to get away from them all! As an example you saw how she "helped" him with the DUI. Why didn't she just leave him alone like he wanted! He would have been so much better had she left him alone & sat it out in jail for the DUI and suffered the penalty for the DUI...a good lesson learned!!
I'm not condoning his behavior by all means, but I can tell by his eyes that he been through some shit. They all have and I hope they can heal and somehow go to family therapy to mend their broken household 🙁🙁 I know it will be difficult for the sister to forgive him, but I just hope they all find peace
I agree. I feel the father was being abusive. IMO The mother either knew but said nothing or enabled it. I.E. told the son, he deserved to be abused or something along those lines. He could have also told her and she just didn't believe it because the father was that sneaky. Doesn't excuse his behavior but this dude clearly needs mental help. I find it odd the father wanted nothing to do with his son after the alleged sexual assault. I'm not saying they made it up. However, at the same time, we can only go by what he was charged with as a minor. I find it strange that the father wanted nothing to do with his son after that. Clearly, they are all hiding something.
@@bb120308 I suspect that the father was abusive, mom probably was also abused or at least knew about the father abusing the son and let it go on for a long time, as happens very frequently.
@@bb120308 I rly agree w that* the mother is not nearly as innocent as she acts
@@bb120308 Or the father beat him to a pulp for molesting his sister.
@@user-tb2jy9lu3d how would you know? You’re speaking without evidence. The mother could’ve been abusive or remained silent
Damn.
I hate that she brought that forward, but damn my heart goes out to his sister.
The son forced her hand. She was trying to leave out as much dirt as possible.
The sister gets plenty of love & pity & everything she need to survive! You don't know anything about this except their side of the story. Maybe she participated & is to afraid or ashamed to admit it. Kids lie! He got nothing but blame, hate, no love, no understanding, no help, no family! Anyone can see he is dead inside & barely hanging on! So unjust! So Sad! I am sorry what ever happened, happened to her but I guarantee you there is a lot more to this story & Jacob has been the one to suffer his life since the age of 13. He was a child too!!!
@father-of-Death.....my heart goes out to her (sister) too because she has been pampered & babied all through this & never really got it taken care (helped), now she feels sorry for herself & doesn't really know how to cope. She has been taught her Brother is wrong & she was wronged as with the bike HE gave her, she's not using it & he needs it, but she's not going to let him have it back, the whole family is in on "hiding" the bike so he can't get/use it! They are so bad to the Brother, not helping him through this too! I am a woman, not a man & I can understand the situation. We will never know the real story, just the persecution to Jacob with no help at all just rejection.
I absolutely agree the mom looks very suspicious! And for the Brother to do that to his sister, it was extremely WRONG it seems like there’s more to this story.
@puppylove1165 you bet it's wrong of the Brother & of course you are assuming the Sister had no part in it & where is the help Jacob needed through all this? He's their child too. Many, Many children play sex & a lot of parents never find out. As long as they have told on Jacob, why don't they tell the whole story? I don't feel they would tell the truth! I feel sorry for the Sister too, but no more than I feel sorry for him. They don't need sympathy, they need to understand why that happened, how they shouldn't do that & serious help through the whole thing.
I definitely also agree that this whole family needs therapy, but I see emptiness in his eyes. There is nothing there anymore, and that is both sad and scary.
I pay we don't see him on tv for a more serious issue. He is full of silent rage.
It sucks seeing families fall apart like this. Time is precious, you can't get these moments back.
The daughter/sister is one tough warrior.
Yes
Judge Marilyn herself will tell you she hates these types of cases.
I suffered with every type of abuse from my elder brother for 16 years, sexually 5 years, these people have no sympathy from me, they deserve what they get. I didn’t abuse anyone else because of my abuse

The mother seems to be in denial … something is not right.
That guy is throwing off creepy vibes.
BIG time. His eyes....giving me Dahmer vibes. Makes me shudder.
ophiecat That is the look of a guilty person who thinks that there was nothing wrong with what he did to his sister. Unfortunately, I know the look, I have seen it in a real courtroom. No remorse, no reaction, just dead eyes.
Going walking with a bat? LMAO!!
Seriously! I wouldn't be surprised when we see the mug shot of his killing spree
It's like if the Myers family from Rob Zombie's Halloween went to court. Or the Texas Chainsaw family
Poor girl. I admire her courage. They need to keep an eye on him. He probably has or will have other victims.
She was 13 and he was 14. It seems like they put MUTUAL behavior on him and convinced her that she did nothing wrong. She would be just as guilty of molesting him.
@@michaeldelyjah5696 What the fuck? How did you get that out of the few seconds they spent talking about it? I can only assume you're confusing statutory rape and assault with just... molestation. By your logic, one teen could never molest another no matter what because...they're both underage, I guess? I don't really understand your point. If he touched her without her consent then no, she was NOT "just as guilty of molesting him"
@@Bakaferret I think he means if they consent to sexual contact, we don't know the story. Just because they say something happened doesn't mean it did, but it also doesn't mean it didn't happen.
If they both consented to sexual contact, than both were in the wrong, if he hurt her, it is possible it could be because he was a victim himself when he was younger.
Who knows, we only heard a few seconds or the story.
@@michaeldelyjah5696 Shame on you for attempting to victim shame a young woman who was abused by her brother at the age of 13. Disgusting. Comments like yours are why people who have been sexually abused are scared to come forward. Your comment is akin to the 'she was asking for it' attempted defense of rape.
@@granitemoss1451 He was 14. They molested each other.
This is so sad..SHAME to that mom. If your son is SA his own sister, claims abuse, is an alcoholic at the age of 20 obviously there’s a bigger issue here. Hope both son and daughter are getting the help the need and deserve.
Shame on the mom... and not the ahole brother who raped his sister and terrorized his mother and sister? What is wrong with these people making such abnormal comments? Are you set up by rapists or what??
the son may be lying to try to justify his actions via gaining sympathy
When the judge said you’ve taken enough, I felt that shit.
Same!
The plaintiffs eyes always reminds me of this quote from Stephen King’s Misery:
Paul was frightened by what he saw on her face, because what he saw was nothing; the black nothing of a crevasse folded into an alpine meadow, a blackness where no flowers grew and into which the drop might be long.
he IS! creepy & scary! think some mental issues going on.
Could not agree more. He is dead inside.....1000% deranged, and only a matter of time before he snaps.
Got those dead eyes.
That's dark af🥴
honestly thats not what i see at all. weirdly i see pain aswell. the dad thats misteryously out of the picture is probably a big factor to all this. smells like abuser was also abused. makes no sense to me for an abuser to want to distance himself from his victim, unless her presence in his life is an active reminder of not only his horrible act but also something bad that he tries to repress. i might be reading too much into it, but im not basing this on movie type shit, this is behavioral patterns that you see on certain victims. instead of demonizing him i honestly just wish they both got the help they need, cause his behavior is not normal, but not in aserial abuser kind of way, man is shaking through all of it, its really sad.
"tapping a bat on a bridge?" That's why you told the police to get him? Wth lady? Be a mom
@taylorbrickman3872 ....right! She sounds like his worst enemy. He said it was not unusual to carry a bat when going for a walk! His Mother knew that. Why couldn't just leave him alone? He didn't want her help with that DUI. Why did you take it the, was what he was asked? Bullied again until he doesn't even try to defend himself. They even went to the extent of hiding the bike so he couldn't get it back. The Dad helped! Maybe he needed it to get to work! They didn't care, they didn't even talk to him about it!!! I don't feel sorry for Jacob, I'm SAD for him. I can tell they never listen to him but are the first to think ill of him. Even prisons work with people to make life better, but not this family....he's guilty as charged.
They brought everything in the lawsuit that they could bring to return to him. That’s when you know that they HONESTLY wanted to be rid of him and everything he represented. They wanted him to win so he could let them be. This was so sad. Being abused by a close family member is confusing, hurtful and painful. I hope everyone gets the help they need.
Not "return TO him"....
But "RETURN him"......
I feel for the sister, when she stated to cry i did too.
That's exactly the impression I got from this.
They could have given it back without going on TV court
Abusers are excellent at playing innocent victim sweetie pies in front of a judge. That's the vibe I got from the mother especially.
There are no winners in a dysfunctional family.
Everyone was cagey because there are secrets.
They all need therapy.
The way that the judge literally dropped everything related to the case to comfort and offer words of encouragement to the sister got me good. Furthermore, the fact that he quite literally turned to stone when the allegations were brought up made me believe it completely. I think he thought she'd be too ashamed to say anything and that he could control the narrative of the household dynamic.
@kelslskfnvksfe ...... He didn't turn to stone because he was guilty. He has been accused so much, always the wrong one, not loved, abused, found guilty by family, never listened too until he is dead inside. An example of his treatment....the way his Mother "helped" him with his DUI! He would have been better off had she left him alone. She got him in more trouble & then he had the DUI to take care of too after her help! If help is what you call it!!!! He didn't want her help & had moved out & away from them all to get away from them! There is no one so blind & someone one that doesn't see! We don't know enough about this to be able to make a judgement. We heard the Mother & daughters side only!!!!!
@@judyjudyjudy1841why are you so antagonistic? Each and every one of your responses are that way. Do better
I'm surprised any of them agreed to come on the People's Court. There's so much disturbing pain in their past... Very surprised they would all willingly chose to bring it to national TV. They don't seem like the types of people who enjoy airing out their dirty laundry. I guess money is a huge motivator.
Cuz something is off with this whole family. He’s not the solo bad guy.
Letting it out is one of the best way to heal. A way for all involved to be heard and in the end tie a knot to close off the past and begin to move on with life
It's a paid free vacation. Woot woot!
He NEVER thought that would come out. He was counting on THEM to be too ashamed.
That & the fact that he needed to be ousted for there own protection.
How does a mother say she is done with her son with a smirk on her face? There are 3 sides to this story. His side, their side, and the truth somewhere down the middle.
My thought exactly! There's more she's not saying. But regardless, the daughter was the one who really stood out. She seemed like she was the most mature and had a better grasp on life than her mom.
I just commented that SOMETHING has happened to the son but nobody is focusing on it.
My point exactly. There’s some things that the mother and daughter are not saying and it seems kind of weird. People can talk about him all they want to. Not saying that he didn’t do what she accused him of not saying that he did or didn’t do what she’s accusing him of. But it seems like she says that she never experienced that behavior with him and that they were super close. But then in another breath then they’re throwing out these little things like he was such a terrible person so it’s like which one is it. It definitely does seem like something happened to him and they don’t want to talk about that, they just wanna paint this picture of him.
My thoughts also, in one breath she says he sexually abuse his sister but then she also says she doesn't understand what happened because the three of them where close until he brings her to court, smells fishy.
@@moneyisviscous EXACTLY!
I often hear cases when sibling abuse siblings, usually a parents or someone close has abused the abuser at a young age
the daughter got my respect. for the plaintiff who did the worst thing to his own sister, he should be in jail today.

@@KamalasNotLikeUs Nah, make that 30 seconds max.
No tv judge is good for this case. The person that was bad for this was whoever was involved when the alleged molestation occurred. That family clearly has issues and it's crazy that more years passed with them all together.
The mom didn’t even need to bring that up. She’s weird and they are all a little off.
The fact that the father is not in the picture any longer and that the mother was so casual in just openly stating that her son did that to her daughter (you really have to watch the video to understand the gravity of the situation) really makes me feel like the parents are a big part of why there’s so much wrong with this family. It’s so sad knowing that this kind of stuff is capable of happening. Nobody deserves to go through anything of this magnitude.
I feel for the son. There’s more to this story that wasn’t talked about. The boy was also abused in that home and was entitled to his own things.
Might have started with the father that caused him to act on his sister. They all need help.
He sexually assaulted his sister and you "feel for him"?? Cool😒
My dad physically and verbally abused my brother... Doesn't give my brother any permission for him to have sexually assault me most of my childhood (8 years)... He now still plays the victim after assaulting another minor and going through court... He refuses to take responsibility and grow up, he's babied and mum does everything for him...I was abused growing up and have never abused anyone.... Just because you are abused isnt an excuse to become an abuser.
Typical male identified nonsense. He was a teen when he made the CHOICE to assult his sister but of course you feel for him. Disgusting coddling of a grown man.
@@tinabod8321 it's not called "permission" when it's about a child. between the ages of 9-14, although the body starts maturing, not all persons around that age have the discernment to know better -- which is why there is a law specifically for statutory r*pe. most children act on feelings and instinct more than on rationality (which is why it's so easy for people to abuse them). however, I know there are some that indeed are evil, but that's just like the fable of the frog and the scorpion: one can only give what they have.

True. Now his life is ruined
I totally agree.
Amen. They spitefully threw that in . The smirking the whole time. What does a 13 year old learn that. I see plenty mistakes the mom made. SMH shame of her.
I disagree. The more exposure of stuff like this the better for others to speak out. I also commend the sister for her bravery. We as a society have to stop shaming those that want to speak out about sexual abuse and trauma. Not speaking about it and holding it all in is what leads to suicide.
So I was there I’m in the navy blue shirt front row behind him, the judge paused filming and she felt there is for sure something darker in the family, and alot of us were crying. I was shocked it aired or is on here
no wonder they danced around explaining the whole case. they didnt want to talk about that until he started the blame game.
Anyone else notice the mom and daughter have the same shirt on, different color? Lol

What is wrong with your eyes
The judge is so smart asking all the right questions.
Forget the plaintiff and his mother-the poor sister/daughter
This is my thing yes we appreciate mothers for giving us life but at the same time non of us asked to be here... therefore we're human and want to do things for us....I have a mother that threw away all my things when I first tried to move out and she fought me every step of the way because she didn't want me to move out. But that still doesn't give her the right to physically, verbally,or emotionally abuse me just because she's my "mother".
Our generation really needs to break this cycle.! I firmly stand on that. Just because you share the same blood as another person:relative,that doesn't give them the right to mistreat you.! Period.
The mother sounds like she contributed to this problem. She got him arrested the second time.
The mother is really sick to bring up such personal history ON LIVE TV, to me, it speaks louder than everything else she says
Amen
If you watch closely, the daughter gave her permission.
1st of all, this is not LIVE tv. The show is taped and edited. If the sister had not given her permission, it would not have been broadcast. 2nd, the judge asked why the rift with the father and the mother answered the question with the sister's permission. The parties are vetted. They know beforehand what the issues are. The producers do not broadcast anything that would make them liable. I find it hard to believe that the son would consent to be on this show knowing the allegation would likely come out.
I’m so glad their is people like you who read between the lines. Who actually see the small things that the majority miss constantly when watching these shows. It kills me how blind people are. They go off whoever is screaming the loudest yet miss the small quiet things being said.
I catch little stuff like that ALL the time on these court shows and everyone bashes the wrong person CONSTANTLY🤦🏽♀️
I was screaming that at the t. v.! She was completely out of line. And it speaks to her parenting skills.
Omg . This case just got deeper than I had wanted . At first I was like wtf why is the mom so willing to disown the son but wow ..

@@martinboyle9163 correct
Thx for sharing with a million viewers.
Does this 19 year old "adult" realize that he needs to assume some grown-up responsibilities? The sister's assertion that her brother was different after returning from Job Corps is also troubling.
Yes, did someone assault him while at job corps?
Exactly! I think something happened to him there... they do live in dorm style arrangements. And it’s usually like lost kids who don’t really finish school so you have all types of people there. Something definitely happened to him
So they were best friends before and after he raped her. But he changed after jobCorp. Something about that doesn't seem right. .
That’s why he was sent to job Corp. to get away from sister
Or because he was trying to out the dad and mom for abuse and they couldnt have that hapoen so they sent him away. I bet the dad abused him and either the mom abused him too or she let it happen, which makes her just as bad.
Plaintiff is so heartbroken too! A lot has not been told and is missing! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 prayers for them all
This episode brought me to tears. Such a brave girl!
I’m confused on why it’s so hard to tell the full story.
Because families this sick, esp. that mother, have lived their lives on a vast network of lies and betrayals.
Its hurtful.... embarrassing.... shameful... scary.... and its playing out for the world to see.
Mom: "It's unfortunate that it came down to this for mistakes I didn't make." Hu? .... OK, she takes no responsibility!
The Judge is all for “mama” ..hiw unfortunate! Looking at the son’ “deadness” i feel for him the most and the mama so heartlesscand manipulative makes her very creepy . She ‘s a narcissist and the father is abusive .
I love the way the judge just assumes the mom isn't a theif.
Right. These judges are freemasons etc anyways and since its reality tv its doctored up. Anyways.. If more people knew about narcissistic personality disorder and how family units with 1 or more narcissists operate, this case would make a bit more sense. Golden child, scapegoat/black sheep. The mother absolutely seemed like a narcissist. I grew up with multiple and they will be devils behind closed doors but everyone on the outside thinks they are saints, and they even convince people who know what they are to team up against you. The reason the son seems to have dead or flat expression is most likely from all the abuse and "grey rocking". The mother and father may have been jointly abusive to both the kids, but the daughter sucks up as a saftey percausion as the golden child. The children can end up becoming narcissists too. Both the mother and father could have sexually abused their own children. This does not excuse the son sexually abusing the sister, if that event is true.
What’s a “theif?”
Something is in the dark. He’s been crying out for help. This isn’t just about control. There’s some abuse in this family.

“if he did really assault his sister” as if she was just faking the tears and lied about being in therapy to cope? Please check yourself and your tendency to create possible backstories for men and refusal to take women at their word.
"Dad" is out of the picture because of parental alienation, one of a single mother's favorite weapons. Clearly, "mom" has issues, bouncing from house to house to house, using one child against another. The best thing the plaintiff can do to improve his life is shut her out completely. She is an absolute drama and control freak, and you can tell how much she's loving it.

@@zerotodona1495 Ah so your one of those people who will believe anything someone says. How's your cars warranty? It might be time to extend that warranty.
We dont even know that he is a criminal, your going based of an accusation, an accusation that was tossed out there to win a case.
That was insane. That took a 180 degree hard left turn off a cliff out of no where! How can that kid even look at himself after what he did and is doing. Smh
Some things I find odd...
The mother seems relatively unaffected by her daughters trauma ... rather, she is seen smiling as if she was vindicated yet her daughter is in shambles...
The son mentioned that he has been the black sheep of the family since he was 7, and whenever "someone" needed a scapegoat, they used him...
The daughter said that the son bought her a bike for her birthday ... I'm wondering how close they were, and why were they so close if he sexually abused her? Was the bike a token of his remorse? Were they so close because they were made to keep a secret, and we don't actually know the full story about the abuse? Were they protecting the father?
The son was arrested for a DUI and the mother said this is the first time he has acted out in this way ... why was he drinking so much to be 3x the legal limit? He was alone when this happened, so I don't think it's likely that he was drinking in a social setting ... and he went for a walk afterwards with a baseball bat ... what was he trying to do? The mother was concerned about him doing something with the bat, so who was he going to see with that bat?
I understand family drama, but when a child sexually abuses another child, I don't understand why people think it's a good idea for the abused child to live with their abuser ... she seems very strong and very empathetic, but I keep wondering how they managed to become close if he sexually abused her? Even as kids, I would never have a relationship with a sibling who had done that to me ... I've never been in that situation, but I can't even wrap my head around it ... I understand families need healing but THAT seems like something you keep your abused child away from...
As others have said, there's definitely more to this story, and I am very interested to know what role the father played in this ... I kind of hate catching a glimpse of their life and having so many questions. It was a really good episode though.
I was wondering the same things .... so they became close and he bought her a bike after he assaulted her ? He must have gone to job core at around 17 ... so that means that for 3 years after the assault they were somehow close ... I don’t get it
The poor daughter, but good for her for being brave and being a fighter =) I hope she has a happy life.
This one was CRAZY! Prayers for this family fr🙏🏽
The mom used her daughter’s abuse to win the case. Disgusting. It had nothing to do with case. The brother needs help, but there are holes in this story
Agreed! Why would the Mom take the 2 kids who the sexual assault just happened with and keep them together? Why would Dad leave Mom and daughter alone with his son who according to them just molested his sister? Something isn't right in this story. Mom drops this bombshell after it appears their losing ground on the bike issue. Seems like the cameras were most likely given to the daughter as well. I think the son had been being abused since early adolescence and either Mom was complicent or complacent. I'm not saying the son is right or ok if he abused his sister. I'm saying something isn't adding up in this whole story and I think the judge took a pretty one sided approach in the heat of the moment. There is way more to this story! Very sad.
I disagree. I think the son started to lie and forced her hand.
I’m speechless.. she should have left the cases separate. She pulled a uno wild card
yup, your blind. it explains why you would say such a horrible thing. pain has everything to do with the case. didnt u hear him after he lost?
He brought it up, he said "my dad lost interest in me when I was 7" and she responded "the family separated after he assaulted his sister"
The judge made her decision on the family story. She didn't keep it to what they were there for. The daughter gets therapy but he doesn't? This family gave up on him.
Sometimes when you cross a certain line there's no forgiving no more hope for ya
@@nira8289 so you don't think a kid who was 13/14 when he sexually assaulted his sister deserves therapy? How stupid are you?
@@superduperkid3143 he isn't a kid anymore. Too late for that. How stupid are you to discredit this victim and let this happen to other girls as it most likely will? Thanks
So I was there I’m in the navy blue shirt front row behind him, the judge paused filming and she felt there is for sure something darker in the family, and alot of us were crying. I was shocked it aired or is on here the judge also wanted to know who casted them and what production assistant was on top of it she wasn’t happy at all.
@naufhijazi8980... The judge didn't act so great herself!!!! She doesn't know all the facts, just what the poor Mother & Sister said. Jacob was mistreated, hurt, bused, unloved, misunderstood & the charge of guilt was all on his shoulders!!!! No one asked him if it was OK to let the world know this family tragedy! Just the sister! He had been so abused with this that his eyes glazed over K& he went into his brain protective helpless trans! You don't know that the sister didn't participate in the trauma & just afraid to say, or maybe Mom & Dad are are protecting her! The girl is well re-hursed in self pity. Insteading of dealing with it to make them both strong in handling the trauma, they have made him the guilty one & her the self pitying sole she will probably always be when dealing with this!
@@judyjudyjudy1841 that’s a big stretch or assumption to say but I do understand where you’re coming from as an outsider. i was there and between filming the judge was not happy this was even brought onto the show as a case, she asked which producer worked on it, and was concerned given the information as usually minors who abuse are abused themselves, that is a different matter and belongs in criminal court or special victims and not her court room which is civil cases, her being an actual judge made her highly aware of svu cases or the types of situations that create them and that this was the absolute wrong place entirely for it. It is filmed live btw, only minor cuts or edits of her responses, judge shows like this are entertainment but actually involve real law and legal proceedings. This was way way way out of place and pocket for the type of show/ cases people’s court has. I am shocked this aired actually or is still on RUclips I was apart of more than a few audiences for this show cause it’s filmed in my hometown and I can tell you they do not have situations like this ever
@@Lokislookbook77 I appreciate your response, thank you! It isn't a big stretch or assumption, I have lived life and I know what I have said can be true. I am sad for Jacob. No matter what he says, he has been found guilty by all. He needed help through this whole ordeal, but never got it. I refuse to watch it again, even though it has aired twice in the last week & I had seen it before. Why won't someone that can, take it off the air? I don't know if it is worse to keep it secret, like when I was a child or make it so public, & ruin his life like they have. The poor Sisters life hasn't been so great either Both ways are bad. My brother-in-law got away with what he did to me & he had an encounter with another girl. One other that I know, I have no clue if the "other" girl was penetrated or not. I was not penetrated, but I suffered emotionally. I never thought I was as good as the other little girls I went to school with. I felt "it was my fault". I felt dirty. I can't even imagine the horrors of being penetrated! It took years to deal with it in my mind. I think when my brother-in-law passed away, I finally had relief! I remember reading about a girl that had been abused (sexually) & was told by ignorant people that "she should make up with her Dad because she would be sorry she didn't some day!" Fortunately the answer to her was "usually they are relieved when a molester dies". I was & I think that is when I could finally come to terms. My Mother called me, one day, and said he died. My response was "Thank God". He was a useless piece of flesh! Who knows how many other little girls he messed up their childhood. Jacob was a child, young foolish and maybe wasn't a guilty alone as people thought. No matter what, he deserved help through this tragedy too!
As someone who has dealt with a lot of young people from Job Corps- no one goes to Job Corps for a year-and-a-half without already having some serious problems. I’m betting that it was done to get him away from the sister. It would fit the timeline.
I've been to job corps and I can say that if you go in with having problems you get them from being there
Except they said they were getting along great until he went there.
