Mike, my sister and I shared a love for your stories. She just passed away from ovarian cancer on August 1st. Thanks for always saying "I love ya" you just don't know what it means to someone.
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my little brother, and only sibling, 11/29/22. He was 34. He would have celebrated his 36th birthday on August 4th. Sending my love and heartfelt condolences, to you. ❤
Mike's "Because I love ya" is what made me subscribe years ago, before I knew it was 'safe' to sub (I thought I'd get spam email or something, lol). I only know of 1 other You Tuber who says it - Nexpo. I means a lot and does help at least a little, doesn't it?
I'm so sorry for your loss of your dear Sister. She'll always be with you and you will keep her memory alive by talking and remembering her. Rest in paradise to your sister. 🙏✝️🌹much love from Scotland. 🙏⚔️🏴⚔️🌹
Lol -- now every time someone asks me *( excuse me with a nice voice and all about my hair ima be thinking about this freakin woman I think I’ll say no Habla Ingles
FOR REAL. DID (disassociative identity disorder) is a serious condition.... Highlights in your hair doesn't qualify. It used to be called MPD (multiple personality disorder), pretty much the MOST severe form of schizophrenia.
The fact that Holly wasn’t arrested sooner is insane. I know teenagers that have been arrested for one single act of spray painting. Holly did that constantly and even left her own name
So true and sad. Sometimes I think “law enforcement” has too much bias. They hate teens by default and will give some crazy lady the benefit of the doubt. I say this as a 30 y/o.
Truly. Of course mental illness is very difficult to treat, and you can’t help someone if they won’t let you, but it doesn’t seem like there was ANY kind of help offered to Holly.
@@user-cq1hf2eb4gbeing someone who has a family member with severe mental health I promise you, they need to want it for themselves. getting them involuntarily admitted is not easy, getting them to take medication is not easy; no one can do anything for them except for themselves and after so long of watching them deteriorate the only thing you can do is cut them off
@@jdhutchinson506 Holly was actually making a reasonable point, I think, and the woman's comments about her were nothing short of disrespectful. In this one matter, I am siding with the person with mental issues.
Man. Holly Collino's case scares the shit out of me. I had a co-worker who had paranoid schizophrenia and went untreated for months. Our manager wanted to get him help, but he was always just able to not meet the criteria for anything non-voluntary. One day, I'm coming into work, and I see the police pulling him out in cuffs. Never saw him again, but man. I hope he got help. Before the symptoms really kicked in I liked him a lot. It's scary that mental health problems like that can just wait until you're in your mid-20's to strike. Wherever he is now, I hope he got some help.
as someone with diagnosed schizophrenia, I've researched this a lot for fear of my own shit, but statistically people with schizophrenia are as likely to become violent as those without schizophrenia, people with schizo are as likely to commit homicide if they're under the influence as other people under the influence- so unfortunate how sudden the onset is though
@desiree7429 - I guess a little context, as it sounds like I was scared because of the diagnosis, which isn't fair. At first, it was just kind of strange. We are unionized where we work, and he would go on about how "if he didn't read the union handbook, he couldn't be union," and we tried to explain that he signed the union contract when he was hired. His roommate, who also worked with us, mentioned that he started drinking more, and we wondered at first if this was related to the alcohol. He then stopped eating and dropped about 50 lbs. He became more and more incoherent, and we were becoming worried for his health. He then started coming in at weird hours (he was first shift, I was second shift). We would see him at 8 pm (his shift ends at 4:30 pm). Sometimes, he would come in without his security badge or in shorts (which aren't safe in our lab). Our manager would escort him out. For a few months, he seemed okay again. My manager tried to get him some help, but he refused any assistance. After about four months, he became incoherent again. He seemed convinced the union was going to hurt him and would talk about how they would make him sign. How he needed to protect himself. He would come in at odd hours, and our manager would come in and escort him out. It became legitimately scary to be around him because I think he thought someone was trying to kill him, and I was never sure who. And no amount of sense would get him to understand that the union was just there to protect our worker's rights. By the time he got taken away in handcuffs (I'm not sure what happened, but it isn't my business and no one got hurt so I assume this was more of a medical removal than a crime) I was really scared that he would do something to "protect himself" from the union or harm one of our union reps. Holly scares the shit out of me because I've been on the other side of that incoherence, and no matter what I said, I feel like I couldn't reach the person. I don't say this in a "every person with some sort of mental health is broken" sort of way. I just say it in the "she clearly needed help, but no one was able to do anything in time and I've seen that in my life" kind of way.
My ex co-worker took his own life a few years ago after s long battle with schizophrenia. He was nearly done with getting an engineering degree at Uni when his symptoms started. He was always tall and thin but the meds made him gain so much weight. It was a double wammy for him...the shock of the diagnosis, the weight gain from required meds as well as actually feeling like you're about to go crazy. He was a beautiful soul and I miss him.
** UPDATE **. I live in Glendale AZ and looked Cleophus up in the court system. His case is appears to be a capital one and there are a crap-ton of entries on activity on his case. The last entries show a trial date of 10/14/24. For whatever reason it wasn't showing any minute entries.
Because the law is very specific. Planning to hurt someone is not even close to the same as planning to kill someone. Also, for it to be 1st degree murder you have to plan to kill a specific person in a specific way and then take definite steps towards doing so. It's not hard to understand. Laws aren't general. They're worded very specifically using language that doesn't leave a lot up to interpretation.
And hello, but according to the news clip, Jennifer was his step sister. I would imagine it was pre planned. He didn’t attack anyone else but her?? C’mon. There was definitely intent and pre planning involved and he should’ve been charged with 1st degree.
Its mostly a profession of people who could not pass the police psych eval lol. Or some other issue that made them unable to be cops or remain in the military. Seriously. Its pretty concerning
I’m a native NYer, and there was talk about not letting “Jupiter Joe,” near your kids in Central Park, Prospect Park, near Yankee Stadium etc. for a while. The aphorism of “where there’s smoke, there’s fire” fits here.
This should be applied to everyone who works for NASA. Basically, if they have government clearance, don't leave them unattended around children. If they're willing to lie to you and your kids about the shape of the earth, they're willing to lie about anything.
@@heartlightslol.....don't even know where to start here. What would NASA stand to gain by lying about the shape of the Earth? I think you should take a little vacation off the internet and read about Aristotle and Pythagoras..
@@heartlights Flat earth truther still? In 2024 nonetheless? Im sure there are better time-wasting rabbit holes to dive in to but hey, no judgment. In fact, the FE “theory” fascinates me because I’ve often wondered if people “around” the world agree with you that it’s flat😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That Holly story is truly terrifying. I’ve dealt with someone like that first hand and it’s very very discomforting to experience that and feel helpless because there really is nothing you can do
Colino is a classic paranoid schizophrenic. I'm startled that no one intervened, she was never hospitalized, never evaluated. It's rare that schizophrenics become violent, but Colino's illness continued to progress unabated. This also highlights what's wrong with gun culture in this country - someone sold or gave a gun to a clearly deranged woman. Since she never entered the mental health system, there were no records, but still! Wildly irresponsible of someone.
In the beginning I kinda forgot who I was watching and I was all happy about a wholesome man making it his mission to teach about the universe... This is why we can't have nice things
@@naeberli9120I'm glad you said this because I had a weird feeling about him, like I was being pushed away. I couldn't explain it until I read your comment. I do my best to listen to my gut feeling, and I almost always make snap decisions based on how I feel in my soul about what the decision needs to be made about, and it's never led me wrong. Anytime I've made a bad decision it's been because of overthinking and worrying about making the decision.
As soon as I saw that heartwarming video of Jupiter Joe giving away a telescope to an extremely excited girl and her mother, I immediately thought, "Ah shit, this dude is gonna end up being a pedophile, isn't he?" The world is so dark, yet so predictable...
It's pretty wild hearing someone with a dissassociative disorder causally accusing others of it, showing they are fully aware of the concept and are at the same time completely oblivious they are actually self-diagnosing themselves. Apparently it's very common for people with mental health problems to be drawn to learning about psychiatry/psychology.
How did she not get turned in by somebody like a teacher or something. She was so freaking wild for so long. My younger sister has severe behavioral problems and dementia. At least she cannot drive a car anymore period and she lives out in the country with my parents. I'm always afraid of her burning the house down she likes to leave oven burners on.
WRONG. That is NOT what dissassociative disorder is. That woman clearly had Delusional misidentification syndromes. Google too hard these days to just simply fact check? All I did was literally google "mental health disorder where you think everyone is stealing your identity" and there it was. Basically, people with that disorder think others are trying to steal their identity or the identity of another person and they feel like people are always out to get them. Now, let's look up what dissociative identity disorder is. Huh, odd. It says it's when a person has one or more distinct identities. Well, that woman wasn't having that issue. She was accusing of others of stealing her identity, this makes no sense. Oh right, you don't know a damn thing about what you are talking about and are just saying BS, lying, and spreading misinformation. That or you are so lazy, you couldn't be bothered to take a minute of your time to look up real facts. Either way, you are wrong and spreading misinformation. When you have zero excuse to just, use google. Cause you clearly have access to it.
Very true. I don't think she has DID though. But people with severe mental issues like that are drawn to psychology because they see everyone else as soooo different and want to know why, they can recognize it's them that's different than the norm. Also studying psychology gives them a power boost as they can use it to brag and it gives them a feeling of authority. "I studied psychology, so I'm right and no one can question me because I'm an expert."
My neighbor seemed like a nice family man too - 4 kids and he was a middle school teacher - until I saw him plastered all over the local news for the kidnap and sexual assault of a 14 year old girl.
@jamesmaguire9518 she would be about 30 years old now. I also hope she's ok. She saved herself that day... stole his phone while he was sleeping and snuck outside to call the cops. I was at work when all the chaos happened. She lived like an hour and a half away too. Broke my heart for her.
There is a woman in my town with schizophrenia who is so similar to Holly. She has screamed at me before, “I know what you did!” The cops tell all of us to be cautious with her because she has a gun 🙄 Nobody is going to give her the treatment she needs until she hurts someone.
If you are in California you can 5150 her. Check your state for mental health crisis teams to see if they can come out and do an evaluation to "two PC" her. In other words have 2 psychiatrists declare she needs to be hospitalized. 311 is your friend
Wait a second... that smoking kid who stabbed a girl AT SCHOOL didn't premeditate the murder? So, it's normal for kids to bring gloves and butcher knives to school? Seriously??
The dude who made this video made shit up; prosecution originally charged him with 1st, his plea deal brought it down to 2nd, which is fucking infuriating.
@@86bIDO52JF Both the prosecution and listening to the video were infuriating; I worked with some of Jenny's family member's when it happened, and almost half of what Mike said in this video was just random BS that he made up after reading half a CBC article.

Yeah I kind of came here to post something along these lines. The fact that the brother just kicked her out because the mental problems that he knew she had happened to his girlfriend is just heartless. And the video creator just acted like it was the logical next step for a brother to kick out his sister
It’s one of those things where I do kinda get it. It doesn’t feel good, but it’s safer for you and everybody sometimes to just avoid those people. When I went to a big city here I had to avoid someone like that, purely because he was yelling in tongues at cars and turned to approach me as me, my younger brother, and our mom walked past just to try to get to your car. Sometimes it’s just one of those things where you see them once and never again, and especially if you’re with your family, you never know if these people have a weapon on them (especially where I live)
There isn’t much to be done. My sister is a milder version of paranoid schizophrenia. She’s been in and out of hospitals and the jail. Since they are grown (and not hurting themselves or other) there isn’t much we can force.
@@Anthus42069if you never had to deal with a family member with mental health issues it’s easy to say the brother was heartless. I’ve had to kick my sister out because she refused to get help. There is only so much family can do for a grown adult sibling . In most cases you can’t force anyone to get help until it’s too late. I could go on and on…point is , don’t blame the family if you never been in their shoes.
With the Jupiter Joe story, it drives me nuts when people say things like "it couldn't have been him, he is so nice"! Most of these creeps are personable, or charismatic, especially publicly or to other adults. These people have absolutely no business claiming it couldn't have been him.
@@JanieBgrand if one were trying to avoid that you failed to detect an insane individual in your life, one might blather all kinds of nonsense when one should just be quiet and ask oneself what one missed.
Yeah, but I think they’re just communicating their shock at who was, to them, a nice guy doing something horrible. I doubt it’s usually meant as a plea for their innocence.
large amounts of people just ignored her. Can see in videos they would put their heads down. That is how we are in society. We try to ignore all the obvious threats until it gets bad enough where you can't ignore them.
@@zippersocks it was, thank you. The worst part is she was lucid when she spoke to medical professionals but zonked out with us. When they took her to hospice she told them not to call me and not to tell me where she was. I got the letter saying she'd died May 18th 2023 on my son's 15th birthday, June 10th 2023. It's hard watching schizophrenia take both your parents before their time.
@@desertparanormal2791My goodness, I'm so sorry! Both parents? I really hope that you can do something good for yourself, and that you have a good support system 💜 I'm sending you gentle hugs, and hoping the best for you 💜
It's really upsetting when family knows about a family members mental health issues and does absolutely nothing and that results in the needless death, murder, of another. So many people failed.
Yes, "rapping" implies speaking inciteful, fun or boastful lyrics rhythmically to the beat of a backing track...not slurring incoherently with no consideration given to the music.
@@AuntieTrichome unfortunately Holly's mental break didnt happen until she was over the age of 18 so no one around her could force her into getting the help she needed. The state can only forcibly hold someone for 72 hours for mental issues. With Holly able to hold a job at times, a 72 wouldnt help her much without her wanting to continuing the help
@@starlingLee I understand that once you’re 18 it’s basically up to you and you can’t be collocated (fortunately in most cases) but friends and family could still attempt to change her mind, talk to her about it. It’s a pretty darn difficult situation.
It's so sad. My anxiety peaked too. And to me it's scary that these mental health problems can happen to anyone. And there's basically not a lot you can do about it.
The “wrong place wrong time” murders scare me the most. Just to die so violently unexpectedly. I just can’t comprehend it. Having lunch and then you’re gone because you came across someone at their breaking point. I guarantee she thought she was copying her. Her illness seemed to focus on that.

Haven’t opened the RUclips app in years it feels like. Saw a case on TikTok I wanted a more in depth look at. You use to be one of my favorite channels so I started binging again. Wow you’ve developed so much. Your videos still have a human like, heartfelt, even humorous feel but so much deeper and I just really appreciate the work you’re putting in!
My heart breaks for Megan and her family. When Holly got the appropriate treatment and was in touch with reality, it must have been frightening for her to realise what she’d done. It’s a tragedy she didn’t get treatment sooner - so many people she crossed paths with must have realised she was extremely unwell.
Yeah I was wondering that too. Imagine not being lucid and having no idea what you've done and then finally realizing what has happened. And it was something you did. Pray to God I never go through that or anyone else I know. And anyone who's going through it I pray to God that I can get the help they need. It's so tricky we really need to make it so we can get people help when they when it's involuntary. But how you go about doing that without it being used and abused to other people. Idk so frustrating..
"it must have been frightening for her to realise what she’d done" Nah, just like so many people, she too will hide behind the excuse of "muh mental issues"

I’m from Brooklyn and all of NYC knows about Minnie’s case. It was cold for a long time… I read up a lot more on it in my teens and again since starting law school. It’s one of those cases that our parents told us about to always let them know where we are and to tell someone where you’re going. I am so sad but also relieved that her killer has likely been found. Rest in peace Minnie 🙏🏽.
It's just easier to prove a second degree murder, that's why a lot of prosecutors will go with second degree which still can carry a hefty sentence, even when there was a clear plan beforehand. Because it's easier to prove, and less possible to insert doubt into the jury. Like here he technically could argue that he just wanted to hurt someone, not intentionally murder and if they would try for first degree murder the fact of him having the knife might not enough to convince everyone that he planned to kill someone, not just scare them or injure them.
Predators generally don't do us the favor of looking horrifying and creepy. Often, they look perfectly normal and even friendly. I wouldn't have suspected Jupiter Joe of anything. What a terribly sad case. There is a smoking fetish. Around 25 years ago, I posed for a series of photos involving women smoking cigars. We weren't asked to dress in skimpy clothing. I was wearing a sweater and khakis. The photographer simply asked us to wear heavy makeup. It wasn't degrading or demeaning in any way. My lungs certainly didn't appreciate it, even though I didn't inhale.
You can't inhale the smoke of cigars, it's supposed to be only kept in your mouth and then spat out. The contact with your gums and tongue can be enough for the nicotine to enter the bloodstream.. Swallowing or inhaling that would almost certainly just make one sick. Just saying.
I like weird music and noise core and I mess around with piano, my poor wife when I get a riff or melody going or when I'm practicing my scales for like 3 hours, and sometimes it's on an untuned piano. It sounds so horribly wonderful
I had a family member with that same trait in her mental illness. She believed other women were taking her body and impersonating her. She would chase them down and berate them. Thankfully, she never hurt anyone that we know of. I always thought it was odd that the women she targeted had complete opposite features than she had. She was darker skinned/hair, Italian, and the women were blonde and blue eyed. Sadly, she denied any need for help and just walked away from her kids and family one day and we never heard from her again. We generally know where she is but she is just out there living her unstable life.
Holly is a stark example of what happens when people don't have easy and free/affordable access to basic medical care. It's no surprise the US suffers from a rampant mental health crisis if people need to murder someone before they get the treatment they really desperately needed years ago. And before anyone says that she or her family could have gotten her treatment: The prohibitive cost of medical treatment, especially for mental health professionals, in the US will inevitably lead to people not considering this option at all or until it is far too late, instead hoping that the issue will somehow resolve itself without needing to pay thousands of dollars to a therapist. The US healthcare system is so utterly broken it's inhumane.
@@TheUberninjaChannel No idea, thankfully I'm not american. But it's beside the point, it should be available to EVERYBODY, period, no questions asked, no conditions, nothing.

The Holly thing, i was genuinely speechless when she pointed to some random woman in a park saying she was mimicking her hairstyle and she was surrounded by people who were copying her because they hated her. Holly needed help big time, becoming that convinced that people who don't know you are copying you when all they're doing is living their life; shes so delusional its terrifying. So sad.
@@SnagKing25 yeah I'm not surprised especially after that random guy asked her for a five bag.... then tried to backpedal and say he only wants to get a cigarette as soon as he got she wasn't a dealer.

Why was she left in this atrotious mental and physical condition for so long that she ended up taking a totally innocent woman's life. It was so preventable if the right people had done their job right....😢🤬💔
The Holly Colino story reminds me of The Outsider, an HBO miniseries about a supernatural entity that mimics other people, commits crimes, and feeds on the misery it causes.
I live in Phoenix and have never heard of this serial killer... so he's just been held in jail for the past 8 years? That's insane. He ended 9 people and hasn't been to trial!!
First, they have to treat him so that he is able to help in his defense. So he needs some help bad then maybe try will happen. Maybe he’ll be in an institution his entire life.
Holly is why we need comprehensive health care that provides mental health services; it shouldn't have taken a murder to send her to a psych ward. I have an untreated bipolar mother who acts very similarly to Holly, so I understand how hard it is (nigh impossible) to get a person like that to a doctor, but my god, her family must have been DEEP in denial to let her out into the world without so much as a warning to local police. Just a tragedy all around.
Here in the UK, our universal health care is so overwhelmed with the massive influx of illegal immigrants, that an appointment with a mental health specialist or psychiatrist is now an average of 2 years waiting list.
we have it. but like any health care you cant force someone to seek it. if i have cancer you cant force me to get treatments. just like you cant force mentally ill ppl to get help. many dont comply with meds, so its pointless unless you force them into asylums. but yall libs dont want to do that. so this shit will keep happening.

I could tell immediately Holly was Schizo effective. That's exactly what my cousin was and he acted so much like that, except the only life he took ended up being his own... He didn't see haters and mimics everywhere, though. Everyone was demons in disguise. He even had a "demon" in him that he went on a hunger strike in order to starve the demon out of himself. By time he "starved his demon" he was 130lb at 6'6" tall... He wasn't a bad man, just a very very ill man.
@@kristinebailey6554 My cousin had a bad habit of taking himself off his meds. By time we would realize he wasn't taking them, he'd be in full withdrawal. We found him in the back of the neighbor's car "looking for the portal to heaven" once. It was shortly after that that he ended up getting sent to the facility where he starved himself. They had to put a peg tube in him to force him to eat. It was awful. After he got out, he looked like was doing so well from the outside looking in. After he took his own life we found a journal he'd kept for the last year of his life. If you read the first page and the last page, you'd think it was two different people writing in it. The handwriting, grammar, and everything was completely different. Reading it you could literally watch the decline in him... We didn't know he'd gotten so bad again. He hid it so well.
I just want to say that if you take anything from my cousin's story, take that my cousin, who spent years in a psych facility and nursing home bc of his mental health, was able to go to Walmart when he got out and purchased the gun that he took his life with. He was able to LEGALLY buy a gun. If that doesn't concern you, you aren't paying attention. Think it would have been a good idea for Holly to be allowed to legally buy a gun, too? Yes, of course we're in America, before anyone asks.
"The drill bits keep breaking and they cant get past 12 miles" yeah my man it's called the earth's crust. Pretty tough stuff there. Some people didn't pay attention in 5th grade science
Bro, never heard of the Siberian Traps, I guess they left pretty solid material. I would laugh if fthey don't drill further because the drill is just not long enough or strong enough at that length. If I remember correctly, there is also a gravity anomaly due to the mass in that place.
Just watched a video on that drilling project. The problems were way more complex than that, nothing to do with any barrier or "gravity anomaly" LOL!! . Go look it up.
@@randomgrinn "Gravity anomalies" are actually a thing, due to the heterogene Earth crusts. Some parts are denser (like the dude that thinks he is the devil dense-level). The number of g is not homogene around Earth, the mean (or median?) value of acceleration of gravity (=g) is 9.81m/s^2 if I remember correctly, but I think around places like traps (places of former massive volcanic activity) the g value is higher. This would point to more mass per volume than usual. Hence, my thought, the ground might be harder to penetrate. But I go with the other person who said it's too hot. That sadly opens again arguments to wannabe devil, lol. He can say it's too hot because the hell is there. If it's his home, why is he never there, though?

Because if they were boring creeps, people would avoid them. That's like asking why bakeries use the scent of fresh-baked cookies to lure in customers instead of open sewage.
Mike, I love your stuff. Been a follower for well over a year. I like these new little dark dives but am a bigger fan of your single themed format. Imo you stand out from other true crime creators, with a perspective that feels authentic-not so caught up in the platforms restricted words that it weighs heavily on your scripts. Your other stand out strength is in finding people who haven't been covered ad nauseam, in the true crime video genre. Keep up the great work.
I worked at a convenience store for nearly 20 years I can’t tell you how often people came in like Holly Colino…. Seeing her recorded footage in places like that was tough. So sad
@@tpolutts3309 ikr. I *was* going to take a drink every time I heard 'Jupiter Joe', but thought better of it. Also, maybe Mike likes to tease us a bit by playing waaay too much cringy rap. lol
I'm a mental health care professional ( Psychologist ) and the reason I think there should be a return to asylums and better control over people with diagnosed personality disorders is on this episode. There is a good percentage of sufferers that are not compliant with meds, that cannot care for themselves safely, have a history of erratic behaviour or are in the high risk of a psychotic break - all of whom do not belong mixing with the general population. The cost is too high to society not to keep them housed in a mental health care facility. The problem is ensuring these institutions are more flexible, humane, well run and not the horror show they used to be. So many souls are on the street or in prison because we not longer have facilities that keep them and us safe.
If you haven't, PLEASE read "Misdiagnosis and Dual Diagnoses of Gifted Children and Adults" by James Webb et al (and share it with everyone you know.) The scores of people walking around with undiagnosed ASD face similar problems.
There are always going to be people that are sadly too ill to be in public. Some for medical or mobility reasons, and they get the care they need (for the most part) but mental health? Invisible illness has led to so much misunderstanding. These people that did such heinous things, I have to wonder if, had mental health been taken more seriously, if there wasn't such a stigma, they would have gotten the help they so desperately needed. I don't hate them for their crimes, I pity the prison in their mind that they can't leave
Preach. We should have never taken those facilities away. So many people who need consistent care to be okay were shoved out into the streets and now we have mass chaos. For why?
Dark dark stories. Mental illness can be very destructive if left unchecked. But intervention is difficult in these cases as well. A very terrifying and sad situation.
I am 70+ so I grew up around smokers, men, women, boys and girls. I have never seen anyone smoke like that guy. The way he would take a drag seemed shallow and most people didn’t hold a cigarette that. Most people that smoke out of habit don’t make such a show of it. It seems to me he was doing it for attention.
Escitalopram is an SSRI. SSRIs are known to trigger mania in people with bipolar. The effect Dylan described of starting the SSRI and having a 'flow of information that opened up a whole new pathway of memories in my brain that I am not of this world and for you to not see it is beyond me'....definitely a flag.
I've had a medication that forced sleep paralysis upon my body about 3 times a week. It was the WORST side effect. I forget which medication but it was either an SSRI or some mood stabilizer.
@@chrischriskidnicky6088Yeah, me neither. I've been on it for years for bipolar and I've never had a problem. Then again, everyone's brain chemistry is different.
Joe was the owner of our paintball team “Team Voodoo Paintball” I couldn’t believe when we found out. He truly was one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. He would give you the shirt off his back if you asked. I still can’t believe it. It just goes to show you never truly know someone. Be careful who you get close to. My heart goes out to the victims family.
It’s so hard to understand how the brain can check out and watch people try and deal with it . My mum had a thing called Charles Bonnet Syndrome. Now she was a retired maths teacher and incredibly intelligent and maybe I’m biased but the best mum . She was that teacher where even the bad girls would come knocking at our door asking for help on a Sunday night with their homework because they didn’t understand and they were worried that they wouldn’t complete their homework for the next day at school. She was greatly respected. Anyway , Charles bonnet basically is a misconnect between your eyes and your brain and you see things that aren’t there . It started off with the green soldiers sitting in the tree across the road to a woman in their shower and the guy in the bedroom who appeared as she took her jumper off . None of them spoke and she would say please tell them to leave so I would go into the bedroom and tell the shower lady’s children to get out of my parents bed . The horrible thing was she knew they weren’t real and understood the condition but after a while of not knowing to go along with it or be like my dad and quietly say you know they’re not there and mum would nod , it just drove her mad and scared because her logical mind just couldn’t cope . This is why I always take a step back when a person flips and has a mental episode that comes out of nowhere and they behave erratically. Unfortunately the worst can happen but as I said it can happen to anyone and that cry for help is bad when you can’t help . Weirdly it was related to an eye condition and she had to have injections in one eye and slowly it went away . Unfortunately years later she had Alzheimer’s and had episodes of unrealistic conversations and then be back in the room and back to reality but she never didn’t know who we were .
"Premeditated" may mean that a specific person is the target. In his mental state, Dylan may not have known who he would attack until he just decided to do it in the moment.
I am not a lawyer, etc., but I would guess that "premeditated" carries with it the idea that a SPECIFIC person will be the victim. He may have had no idea who would be his target until the moment before he did it.
It's all quite innocent really, he liked to use any free time to practice cutting up veggies... It's just like the media to intentionally leave out that, at the time of his arrest, he also had in his possession, a large wooden cutting board and a 50 pound bag of onions.
Wow...thank you for this video, it was shocking but also the truth, that a lot of times you do not know what some people are capable of, it can be scary. Be safe! We definitely need a lot more mental health help!

Sr. Prejean is a person that one can have respect for even if they have nothing to do with religion. The way she has helped those who have been accused wrongly and are on death row, or that were convicted and admitted to it, but she gave comfort to… Her work is amazing.
36:05 That statement right there: her own brother thought it was enough and he couldn't help her anymore. Yup. Happens all the time. I stopped talking to my best friend of 33 years last year. She is diagnosed with BPD (refuses to take meds and go to therapy, she's been completely untreated) and she's been so paranoid for the last few years that I couldn't take it anymore. She accused me of wanting to ruin her and tell people (don't know who, we don't have friends in common, we live in two different countries) all of her secrets. Why? Because I didn't want to delete YEARS of conversations we had and send her screenshots as proof that I did it. It was the only way she could trust that I wasn't her enemy. After 33 years of not giving her any reason for that. It's exhausting. I can relate to that man.
I feel like people think there is more the family can do when they are worried. We can let authorities know they are worried but it’s hard to prove they seem like a danger to themselves or others and if they do agree and a mental health institute takes them in- they usually only keep them for two days or something.

FOR REAL.
DID (disassociative identity disorder) is a serious condition....
Highlights in your hair doesn't qualify.
It used to be called MPD (multiple personality disorder), pretty much the MOST severe form of schizophrenia.
The fact that Holly wasn’t arrested sooner is insane. I know teenagers that have been arrested for one single act of spray painting. Holly did that constantly and even left her own name
So true and sad. Sometimes I think “law enforcement” has too much bias. They hate teens by default and will give some crazy lady the benefit of the doubt. I say this as a 30 y/o.
Yes came to comment this very thing.
The Holly Colino story is a sad reminder about what can happen when you leave mental health unchecked until its too late.
So many people cut her out their lifes and nobody tried to get her sectioned/help
Yes. And the dangers of going to far down rabbit holes. We need more mental health access here.
Truly. Of course mental illness is very difficult to treat, and you can’t help someone if they won’t let you, but it doesn’t seem like there was ANY kind of help offered to Holly.
@@user-cq1hf2eb4gbeing someone who has a family member with severe mental health I promise you, they need to want it for themselves. getting them involuntarily admitted is not easy, getting them to take medication is not easy; no one can do anything for them except for themselves and after so long of watching them deteriorate the only thing you can do is cut them off

Man. Holly Collino's case scares the shit out of me.
I had a co-worker who had paranoid schizophrenia and went untreated for months. Our manager wanted to get him help, but he was always just able to not meet the criteria for anything non-voluntary.
One day, I'm coming into work, and I see the police pulling him out in cuffs. Never saw him again, but man. I hope he got help. Before the symptoms really kicked in I liked him a lot. It's scary that mental health problems like that can just wait until you're in your mid-20's to strike. Wherever he is now, I hope he got some help.
Mental health problems are an excuse not a disease
as someone with diagnosed schizophrenia, I've researched this a lot for fear of my own shit, but statistically people with schizophrenia are as likely to become violent as those without schizophrenia, people with schizo are as likely to commit homicide if they're under the influence as other people under the influence- so unfortunate how sudden the onset is though
@desiree7429 - I guess a little context, as it sounds like I was scared because of the diagnosis, which isn't fair.
At first, it was just kind of strange. We are unionized where we work, and he would go on about how "if he didn't read the union handbook, he couldn't be union," and we tried to explain that he signed the union contract when he was hired.
His roommate, who also worked with us, mentioned that he started drinking more, and we wondered at first if this was related to the alcohol. He then stopped eating and dropped about 50 lbs.
He became more and more incoherent, and we were becoming worried for his health.
He then started coming in at weird hours (he was first shift, I was second shift). We would see him at 8 pm (his shift ends at 4:30 pm). Sometimes, he would come in without his security badge or in shorts (which aren't safe in our lab). Our manager would escort him out.
For a few months, he seemed okay again. My manager tried to get him some help, but he refused any assistance.
After about four months, he became incoherent again. He seemed convinced the union was going to hurt him and would talk about how they would make him sign. How he needed to protect himself. He would come in at odd hours, and our manager would come in and escort him out. It became legitimately scary to be around him because I think he thought someone was trying to kill him, and I was never sure who. And no amount of sense would get him to understand that the union was just there to protect our worker's rights.
By the time he got taken away in handcuffs (I'm not sure what happened, but it isn't my business and no one got hurt so I assume this was more of a medical removal than a crime) I was really scared that he would do something to "protect himself" from the union or harm one of our union reps.
Holly scares the shit out of me because I've been on the other side of that incoherence, and no matter what I said, I feel like I couldn't reach the person. I don't say this in a "every person with some sort of mental health is broken" sort of way. I just say it in the "she clearly needed help, but no one was able to do anything in time and I've seen that in my life" kind of way.
My ex co-worker took his own life a few years ago after s long battle with schizophrenia. He was nearly done with getting an engineering degree at Uni when his symptoms started. He was always tall and thin but the meds made him gain so much weight. It was a double wammy for him...the shock of the diagnosis, the weight gain from required meds as well as actually feeling like you're about to go crazy.
He was a beautiful soul and I miss him.
on top of that, people with schizophrenia are way more likely to be the victims of violence than the perpetrators @@desiree7429
** UPDATE **. I live in Glendale AZ and looked Cleophus up in the court system. His case is appears to be a capital one and there are a crap-ton of entries on activity on his case. The last entries show a trial date of 10/14/24. For whatever reason it wasn't showing any minute entries.
@Honkey-Donkey. Thank you for the update 😊 Ps love the user name 😂
He didn’t plan to kill anyone at school but, just happened to have gloves and a butcher knife on him?? How does that work?
Because the law is very specific. Planning to hurt someone is not even close to the same as planning to kill someone. Also, for it to be 1st degree murder you have to plan to kill a specific person in a specific way and then take definite steps towards doing so. It's not hard to understand. Laws aren't general. They're worded very specifically using language that doesn't leave a lot up to interpretation.
Yeah, that’s, um, not consistent with second degree murder.
And hello, but according to the news clip, Jennifer was his step sister. I would imagine it was pre planned. He didn’t attack anyone else but her?? C’mon. There was definitely intent and pre planning involved and he should’ve been charged with 1st degree.
Maybe he helped out in the cafeteria?
I just wish Jennifer was able to smash his lit cigarette in his eye while he took her life away from her. Rest in Peace beautiful Jennifer 💜

That Holly story is truly terrifying. I’ve dealt with someone like that first hand and it’s very very discomforting to experience that and feel helpless because there really is nothing you can do
Colino is a classic paranoid schizophrenic. I'm startled that no one intervened, she was never hospitalized, never evaluated. It's rare that schizophrenics become violent, but Colino's illness continued to progress unabated. This also highlights what's wrong with gun culture in this country - someone sold or gave a gun to a clearly deranged woman. Since she never entered the mental health system, there were no records, but still! Wildly irresponsible of someone.
As someone who has been here from the beginning, i love seeing how much Mikes channel has grown. It is certainly well deserved.

It's pretty wild hearing someone with a dissassociative disorder causally accusing others of it, showing they are fully aware of the concept and are at the same time completely oblivious they are actually self-diagnosing themselves. Apparently it's very common for people with mental health problems to be drawn to learning about psychiatry/psychology.
How did she not get turned in by somebody like a teacher or something. She was so freaking wild for so long. My younger sister has severe behavioral problems and dementia. At least she cannot drive a car anymore period and she lives out in the country with my parents. I'm always afraid of her burning the house down she likes to leave oven burners on.
@@AF_1892Some teachers really can't be bothered to help out troubled kids....know that firsthand....
WRONG. That is NOT what dissassociative disorder is. That woman clearly had Delusional misidentification syndromes. Google too hard these days to just simply fact check? All I did was literally google "mental health disorder where you think everyone is stealing your identity" and there it was. Basically, people with that disorder think others are trying to steal their identity or the identity of another person and they feel like people are always out to get them.
Now, let's look up what dissociative identity disorder is. Huh, odd. It says it's when a person has one or more distinct identities. Well, that woman wasn't having that issue. She was accusing of others of stealing her identity, this makes no sense. Oh right, you don't know a damn thing about what you are talking about and are just saying BS, lying, and spreading misinformation. That or you are so lazy, you couldn't be bothered to take a minute of your time to look up real facts. Either way, you are wrong and spreading misinformation. When you have zero excuse to just, use google. Cause you clearly have access to it.
Do you know about anosognosia?
Very true. I don't think she has DID though. But people with severe mental issues like that are drawn to psychology because they see everyone else as soooo different and want to know why, they can recognize it's them that's different than the norm. Also studying psychology gives them a power boost as they can use it to brag and it gives them a feeling of authority. "I studied psychology, so I'm right and no one can question me because I'm an expert."
My neighbor seemed like a nice family man too - 4 kids and he was a middle school teacher - until I saw him plastered all over the local news for the kidnap and sexual assault of a 14 year old girl.

@jamesmaguire9518 she would be about 30 years old now. I also hope she's ok. She saved herself that day... stole his phone while he was sleeping and snuck outside to call the cops. I was at work when all the chaos happened. She lived like an hour and a half away too. Broke my heart for her.
Whoa😢
There is a woman in my town with schizophrenia who is so similar to Holly. She has screamed at me before, “I know what you did!” The cops tell all of us to be cautious with her because she has a gun 🙄 Nobody is going to give her the treatment she needs until she hurts someone.
If you are in California you can 5150 her. Check your state for mental health crisis teams to see if they can come out and do an evaluation to "two PC" her. In other words have 2 psychiatrists declare she needs to be hospitalized. 311 is your friend
Same in my town. Meth induced psychosis I think..
I'd become a cop at that point. See if they have a part-time spot even.
Okay but what did you do 🧐🤣🤣

Yeah I kind of came here to post something along these lines. The fact that the brother just kicked her out because the mental problems that he knew she had happened to his girlfriend is just heartless.
And the video creator just acted like it was the logical next step for a brother to kick out his sister
It’s one of those things where I do kinda get it. It doesn’t feel good, but it’s safer for you and everybody sometimes to just avoid those people. When I went to a big city here I had to avoid someone like that, purely because he was yelling in tongues at cars and turned to approach me as me, my younger brother, and our mom walked past just to try to get to your car. Sometimes it’s just one of those things where you see them once and never again, and especially if you’re with your family, you never know if these people have a weapon on them (especially where I live)
Not wild. Shameful. Her family, her community and the law failed her😢
There isn’t much to be done. My sister is a milder version of paranoid schizophrenia. She’s been in and out of hospitals and the jail. Since they are grown (and not hurting themselves or other) there isn’t much we can force.
@@Anthus42069if you never had to deal with a family member with mental health issues it’s easy to say the brother was heartless. I’ve had to kick my sister out because she refused to get help.

I could go on and on…point is , don’t blame the family if you never been in their shoes.
With the Jupiter Joe story, it drives me nuts when people say things like "it couldn't have been him, he is so nice"! Most of these creeps are personable, or charismatic, especially publicly or to other adults. These people have absolutely no business claiming it couldn't have been him.

The state can only forcibly hold someone for 72 hours for mental issues. With Holly able to hold a job at times, a 72 wouldnt help her much without her wanting to continuing the help
@@starlingLee I understand that once you’re 18 it’s basically up to you and you can’t be collocated (fortunately in most cases) but friends and family could still attempt to change her mind, talk to her about it. It’s a pretty darn difficult situation.
It's so sad. My anxiety peaked too. And to me it's scary that these mental health problems can happen to anyone. And there's basically not a lot you can do about it.
Not true
The “wrong place wrong time” murders scare me the most. Just to die so violently unexpectedly. I just can’t comprehend it. Having lunch and then you’re gone because you came across someone at their breaking point. I guarantee she thought she was copying her. Her illness seemed to focus on that.

My heart breaks for Megan and her family. When Holly got the appropriate treatment and was in touch with reality, it must have been frightening for her to realise what she’d done. It’s a tragedy she didn’t get treatment sooner - so many people she crossed paths with must have realised she was extremely unwell.
Yeah I was wondering that too. Imagine not being lucid and having no idea what you've done and then finally realizing what has happened. And it was something you did. Pray to God I never go through that or anyone else I know. And anyone who's going through it I pray to God that I can get the help they need. It's so tricky we really need to make it so we can get people help when they when it's involuntary. But how you go about doing that without it being used and abused to other people. Idk so frustrating..

Im assuming they mean before that day, like no notes or something
It's just easier to prove a second degree murder, that's why a lot of prosecutors will go with second degree which still can carry a hefty sentence, even when there was a clear plan beforehand. Because it's easier to prove, and less possible to insert doubt into the jury. Like here he technically could argue that he just wanted to hurt someone, not intentionally murder and if they would try for first degree murder the fact of him having the knife might not enough to convince everyone that he planned to kill someone, not just scare them or injure them.
He must've tripped and stumbled while in the kitchen, over the knife block, wearing his halfway open school bag. It's rather obvious!
Moment you said the poor girl wanted to be an astronaut….my heart dropped
Predators generally don't do us the favor of looking horrifying and creepy. Often, they look perfectly normal and even friendly. I wouldn't have suspected Jupiter Joe of anything. What a terribly sad case.
There is a smoking fetish. Around 25 years ago, I posed for a series of photos involving women smoking cigars. We weren't asked to dress in skimpy clothing. I was wearing a sweater and khakis. The photographer simply asked us to wear heavy makeup. It wasn't degrading or demeaning in any way. My lungs certainly didn't appreciate it, even though I didn't inhale.
You can't inhale the smoke of cigars, it's supposed to be only kept in your mouth and then spat out. The contact with your gums and tongue can be enough for the nicotine to enter the bloodstream.. Swallowing or inhaling that would almost certainly just make one sick. Just saying.
Some build fun lands in their front yards and have sleep overs and because of their public persona people still refuse to believe the obvious .

I had a family member with that same trait in her mental illness. She believed other women were taking her body and impersonating her. She would chase them down and berate them. Thankfully, she never hurt anyone that we know of. I always thought it was odd that the women she targeted had complete opposite features than she had. She was darker skinned/hair, Italian, and the women were blonde and blue eyed.
Sadly, she denied any need for help and just walked away from her kids and family one day and we never heard from her again. We generally know where she is but she is just out there living her unstable life.
Sounds like a past life
Holly is a stark example of what happens when people don't have easy and free/affordable access to basic medical care. It's no surprise the US suffers from a rampant mental health crisis if people need to murder someone before they get the treatment they really desperately needed years ago.
And before anyone says that she or her family could have gotten her treatment: The prohibitive cost of medical treatment, especially for mental health professionals, in the US will inevitably lead to people not considering this option at all or until it is far too late, instead hoping that the issue will somehow resolve itself without needing to pay thousands of dollars to a therapist. The US healthcare system is so utterly broken it's inhumane.
There’s affordable mental health online and even through insurance if you work. People are simply just lazy I guess..
@@TheUberninjaChannel No idea, thankfully I'm not american. But it's beside the point, it should be available to EVERYBODY, period, no questions asked, no conditions, nothing.

I could tell immediately Holly was Schizo effective. That's exactly what my cousin was and he acted so much like that, except the only life he took ended up being his own... He didn't see haters and mimics everywhere, though. Everyone was demons in disguise. He even had a "demon" in him that he went on a hunger strike in order to starve the demon out of himself. By time he "starved his demon" he was 130lb at 6'6" tall... He wasn't a bad man, just a very very ill man.
This is so very sad. I am sorry for your loss.
They very seldom harm others. My friends son is a schizo and has never harmed anyone, he is on meds for life.
@@kristinebailey6554 My cousin had a bad habit of taking himself off his meds. By time we would realize he wasn't taking them, he'd be in full withdrawal. We found him in the back of the neighbor's car "looking for the portal to heaven" once. It was shortly after that that he ended up getting sent to the facility where he starved himself. They had to put a peg tube in him to force him to eat. It was awful. After he got out, he looked like was doing so well from the outside looking in. After he took his own life we found a journal he'd kept for the last year of his life. If you read the first page and the last page, you'd think it was two different people writing in it. The handwriting, grammar, and everything was completely different. Reading it you could literally watch the decline in him... We didn't know he'd gotten so bad again. He hid it so well.
So sorry for your loss.
I just want to say that if you take anything from my cousin's story, take that my cousin, who spent years in a psych facility and nursing home bc of his mental health, was able to go to Walmart when he got out and purchased the gun that he took his life with. He was able to LEGALLY buy a gun. If that doesn't concern you, you aren't paying attention. Think it would have been a good idea for Holly to be allowed to legally buy a gun, too?

"The drill bits keep breaking and they cant get past 12 miles" yeah my man it's called the earth's crust. Pretty tough stuff there. Some people didn't pay attention in 5th grade science
Bro, never heard of the Siberian Traps, I guess they left pretty solid material. I would laugh if fthey don't drill further because the drill is just not long enough or strong enough at that length. If I remember correctly, there is also a gravity anomaly due to the mass in that place.
The heat 12 miles down is extreme, and the metal drill bits were close to melting and thus ineffective.
Just watched a video on that drilling project. The problems were way more complex than that, nothing to do with any barrier or "gravity anomaly" LOL!! . Go look it up.
@@randomgrinn "Gravity anomalies" are actually a thing, due to the heterogene Earth crusts. Some parts are denser (like the dude that thinks he is the devil dense-level). The number of g is not homogene around Earth, the mean (or median?) value of acceleration of gravity (=g) is 9.81m/s^2 if I remember correctly, but I think around places like traps (places of former massive volcanic activity) the g value is higher. This would point to more mass per volume than usual. Hence, my thought, the ground might be harder to penetrate. But I go with the other person who said it's too hot. That sadly opens again arguments to wannabe devil, lol. He can say it's too hot because the hell is there. If it's his home, why is he never there, though?

Could he have had the knife and gloves hidden in the bathroom for when the right moment presented itself? He could have hidden a butcher knife on his person but those are a bit harder to hide than a smaller knife. Just a thought that crossed my mind.

I'm a mental health care professional ( Psychologist ) and the reason I think there should be a return to asylums and better control over people with diagnosed personality disorders is on this episode. There is a good percentage of sufferers that are not compliant with meds, that cannot care for themselves safely, have a history of erratic behaviour or are in the high risk of a psychotic break - all of whom do not belong mixing with the general population. The cost is too high to society not to keep them housed in a mental health care facility. The problem is ensuring these institutions are more flexible, humane, well run and not the horror show they used to be. So many souls are on the street or in prison because we not longer have facilities that keep them and us safe.
If you haven't, PLEASE read "Misdiagnosis and Dual Diagnoses of Gifted Children and Adults" by James Webb et al (and share it with everyone you know.) The scores of people walking around with undiagnosed ASD face similar problems.
There are always going to be people that are sadly too ill to be in public. Some for medical or mobility reasons, and they get the care they need (for the most part) but mental health? Invisible illness has led to so much misunderstanding. These people that did such heinous things, I have to wonder if, had mental health been taken more seriously, if there wasn't such a stigma, they would have gotten the help they so desperately needed. I don't hate them for their crimes, I pity the prison in their mind that they can't leave
I tried/found my brother a great home, where he would be safe, well taken care of. The judge denied. He ended up unalived.
Amen. It’s inhumane.
Preach. We should have never taken those facilities away. So many people who need consistent care to be okay were shoved out into the streets and now we have mass chaos. For why?

It’s so hard to understand how the brain can check out and watch people try and deal with it .
My mum had a thing called Charles Bonnet Syndrome. Now she was a retired maths teacher and incredibly intelligent and maybe I’m biased but the best mum . She was that teacher where even the bad girls would come knocking at our door asking for help on a Sunday night with their homework because they didn’t understand and they were worried that they wouldn’t complete their homework for the next day at school. She was greatly respected.
Anyway , Charles bonnet basically is a misconnect between your eyes and your brain and you see things that aren’t there . It started off with the green soldiers sitting in the tree across the road to a woman in their shower and the guy in the bedroom who appeared as she took her jumper off . None of them spoke and she would say please tell them to leave so I would go into the bedroom and tell the shower lady’s children to get out of my parents bed .
The horrible thing was she knew they weren’t real and understood the condition but after a while of not knowing to go along with it or be like my dad and quietly say you know they’re not there and mum would nod , it just drove her mad and scared because her logical mind just couldn’t cope .
This is why I always take a step back when a person flips and has a mental episode that comes out of nowhere and they behave erratically. Unfortunately the worst can happen but as I said it can happen to anyone and that cry for help is bad when you can’t help .
Weirdly it was related to an eye condition and she had to have injections in one eye and slowly it went away . Unfortunately years later she had Alzheimer’s and had episodes of unrealistic conversations and then be back in the room and back to reality but she never didn’t know who we were .
Thanks for the novel😢

It's just like the media to intentionally leave out that, at the time of his arrest, he also had in his possession, a large wooden cutting board and a 50 pound bag of onions.
I'm guessing he was charged with 1st to start with then got it down to 2nd because of a plea/confession of some sort. Easily first degree.
@@alekhidell3644 Not to be a know it all but that's not how it works. Doesn't have to be a specific person, it just needs to be planned ahead of time.
Thanks for a longer video today. I needed it! Would be nice to have longer ones about once a month.
Wow...thank you for this video, it was shocking but also the truth, that a lot of times you do not know what some people are capable of, it can be scary. Be safe! We definitely need a lot more mental health help!
There are so many sketchy youtubers out there. So many with crazy pasts that are either now gone (dead) or in prison. Some are still left to be descovered.
Like mike😂😂😂😂😂
Cleaning/organizing my room/office and enjoying this Sunday with Mike and y’all. ☺️
Im stuck inside due to heat today. I needed this.
It's quite amazing how homeless people who have been treated terribly by society report these things, it's happened in quite a few cases.
I feel so bad because, among many other things, they need counseling for that and I don't think they get it 😢 I can't imagine how that haunts a person
Thank you Mike for all you do!! Including the I love you at the end ! You never know who needs to hear this ❤
Holly actually accosted the server about 30 miles south east of Brockport. So she was all over the county...armed and dangerous.
Immediately suspect a guy would make his entire personality about his telescope, yet have such a cheap low quality telescope. Suss.
Was it really that cheap?
His telescope wasn’t that cheap
😭😭😭
Agreed, a beginner telescope explains why he moslty focused on the moon.
Not at all, we use simpler equipment in public. Easy to transport, easy to set up and in the city, they get banged up. My 6" got knocked over by a drunk on 9th ave. Your average joe wont figure out that 14" Celestron.
These types of stories, as well as the dark disappearance ones, are "lighter" ( lacking a better word) . A little switch up is just what I was needing. I approve, appreciate and request more of these ole ones. Any time .
I've been a fan for years, never had a patreon or listened to a podcast until yours. Anything you do is gold. Thanks for all of your hard work. i love ya!
I’ve been following you since you started and the fact that this case happened in the 90s in the Bronx down the block from me from the same middle school. I remember this story so much. Wow. Thank you.
Sr. Prejean is a person that one can have respect for even if they have nothing to do with religion. The way she has helped those who have been accused wrongly and are on death row, or that were convicted and admitted to it, but she gave comfort to… Her work is amazing.
I was about to go to bed, but eh, nevermind. I can fall asleep at my desk at work tomorrow. Can't resist the call of a new vid from Mike 👌🏻
36:05 That statement right there: her own brother thought it was enough and he couldn't help her anymore. Yup. Happens all the time. I stopped talking to my best friend of 33 years last year. She is diagnosed with BPD (refuses to take meds and go to therapy, she's been completely untreated) and she's been so paranoid for the last few years that I couldn't take it anymore. She accused me of wanting to ruin her and tell people (don't know who, we don't have friends in common, we live in two different countries) all of her secrets. Why? Because I didn't want to delete YEARS of conversations we had and send her screenshots as proof that I did it. It was the only way she could trust that I wasn't her enemy. After 33 years of not giving her any reason for that. It's exhausting. I can relate to that man.
I feel like people think there is more the family can do when they are worried. We can let authorities know they are worried but it’s hard to prove they seem like a danger to themselves or others and if they do agree and a mental health institute takes them in- they usually only keep them for two days or something.
Wow!its been awhile since I watched your vids and i missed that intro ♥️
Glad to see ya back!
Must be nice to blame everything you do or dont and find your self blameless bc of an imagery "person" in in the sk. Very convenient.....
