The doctor's credentials are extremely impressive. I can't imagine the pain the parents and family members are going through.
@cpw vuk fo
So sad. I can't imagine and yet they HAVE to be there,for their child's memory and closure.
His mom's grieve just crushes me as a mom. I think anyone with a lick of empathy would have feeling for this. 😞😭
@@Amo_818 Not Cruz. He did not shed one tear (that I noticed) during medical examiner testimonies or impact statements where even most of his own defense team were blubbering messes. They sure drew shitty straws as public defenders to be assigned to represent this evil monster. Being completely devoid of empathy is how someone could do such heinous acts of violence and cruelty. God bless his poor mom and dad. 💔
A gentleman & a scholar ... dude's a hero.
of all of the medical examiners that testified, I have to say....Dr. Tops was probably the most compelling. No doubt, ALL of the victims suffered a horrible death. But, Dr. Tops made it very clear how horrific these injuries were. My heart goes out to all of the victims and their parents
Yeah! Not a lot of medical words, easy to understand how horrible what happened!
Yes, he's a brilliant man. He keeps his terminology simple for all people to be able to understand. This must have been very difficult for the family to hear. Those details would add to the devastation. NO kid should go to school, and not come home. NO kid should have to have drills on how to act in these events, because these events should not be happening. I'm praying for all these families. R.I.P to these victims......
He humanized the medical terminology
My heart goes out to the families that have to relive this night mare please put this kid in prison for the rest of his sorry life no no parole i wonder if he has any remorse for what he did or does he not care
@@cynthiadavid5282 hopefully he has some type of remorse/guilt. How can he not!?!? Then again, in the first place, who does what he does? It takes a certain kind of "sick/mentally ill" to do what he did!! I just hope the victim's families can find some sort of peace..... It puts me in mind of Carrie Underwood's song called The Bullet. Give it a listen. It's a good song......
How the HELL can the Jury listen to this and not vote for death penalty?
I love how professional he is and how he explains everything clearly. Making sure EVERYONE understands the amount of trauma these babies suffered. What a terrible terrible experience for everyone.

@@emboarepicthose are babies. Their whole lives ahead of them. All with dreams and skills that they’ll never get to exceed or fulfill. Just babies new to all that was to come from life.
You can see when he said “he could have been saved” just broke his parents heart.
He was saying that specifically for the second wound, and only if he received immediate medical attention. Tragically though, the first wound was fatal. I'm not trying to be cold or anything, just clarifying. Regardless, their heartbreak is very real, of course. I think that goes without saying.

My god. The strength it would take having to listen to the gruesome details of how your child died is so absolutely horrific, it’s just inconceivable. My heart bleeds for all of these parents brothers sister grandparents, my god
Maybe, probably, they already knew about it. If I'm one of the parents and I hear about all this details about how my child died, I would have cried and hyperventilate imagining it
@@ReyKaf they probably had to identify their kids :( so they probably knew at least partially the gruesomeness, but to hear it all read outloud in an autopsy report in court WITH the killer there... man that sounds gut wrenching
Idk how they kept their composure!!!! To have to identify your child is one thing but to actually hear the details of what the bullets did is entirely another & with the killer sitting right there....... I Can't Even Imagine the Pain their going thru!!!!! God Bless 'em!!!!!
Horrific, capital G for God.
To be related to this man would be such an honor. His testimony (AND background) will assure justice is served.
That's a nice sentiment, but his background has nothing to do with justice! Look at the size of the psychopaths legal team, there is no shot he gets what he deserves.
@@davedronski7749 quality over quantity. If there is enough evidence against him he can still get the death penalty

While it might be hard for them to hear, this was absolutely necessary and I’m so glad he did this. He needed to paint this picture for the world and the jury. Those children suffered terribly and we should know how. And more importantly, we should acknowledge that suffering with justice.
@@brie3679 why is it our business to know? It would be nice if the government could pull out military from an occupied country successfully and station 2 soldiers in every school instead. They could even have a piece of equipment in the parking lot instead of abandoning it in Afghanistan. I’m sure that would discourage any shooter with a “powerful AR” How about instead of scaring the public with testimony they put fear into the hearts of the killers instead? Why do they only teach schools Sex Ed to ensure population doesn’t grow, instead of also teaching firearm safety to save lives? Because more people die from accidents using firearms than shootings. But people also die from cars way more. Even fists kill more people. My point is that showing an entire world of strangers the pain of grieving parents and how effective these firearms are at defense to invoke fear and entertainment is wrong. They are making so much money on this the parents will never see. These rifles are to remain available in case of government oppression. With pistols we wouldn’t stand a chance in hell.
@@oldaccount5217 it's not to put fear in us. It's so the jury decides the death penalty over life in prison. He is the states witness for a reason.
@@oldaccount5217 "why is it our business to know?" ... no one is forcing you to watch this.
@@oldaccount5217 While I do agree we should be teaching about firearm safety, Sex Ed is more to stop teenagers having unsafe sex that leads to teen pregnancies. Also a military soldier in schools wouldn't help, plus very odd. They put security guards and some police personnel in schools since 2015/16. Do wonder what happened? Some of those left their guns in bathrooms and common areas kids would be around multiple times. A kid would now have access to a gun if they stole the gun. Don't even think about arming the teachers cause it would also be easy for a kid to steal it from the teacher. There has already been a teacher that brought a gun into school and barricaded his classroom, just suiciding basically. The students and staff members didn't see any changes in behavior and the posts leading up to it was happy, inspiring, quotes or comments. People snap for one reason or another.
It should be that we pull back on gun manufacturing, Take away the unnecessary weapons you can legally buy right now, better access to therapy or physiatrists and stricter gun laws. Cause we make more guns then our whole population, and you can buy a grenade launcher and flame throwers. The main thing people say is that they buy a gun to protect themselves, well more guns equals more problems.
To sit there and listen in detail to the injuries your child has suffered takes real strength. I’m not sure I could do the same. The parents show real courage and I hope the evil thing gets what it deserves

The fact that Cruz looks up to see the victims body tells me he is proud of his work. That's disgusting.

It’s all wrong and religion causes nothing but pain!
I'm so impressed with Dr Top's knowledge and how respectful he was. About broke my heart for the parents. So painful for them. So sad.
I can’t imagine being a parent listening to this. Sad
Me either
Having a kid is dumb af 2022
Not only listening to it but seeing it , I couldnt even stand to see strangers , this is terrifying and sad , peace be upon them really it's sad
Oh these parents who sat through hearing every detail of the victim’s agony. Lord please grant these parents comfort, love and peace to handle this pain.
These poor kids. Just going to school, it's Valentines Day, it's close to the end of the school day. And their lives are taken from them. Imagine the pain and fear they went through. This is so horrible.
and how many of them had dates planned for that day?!
Imagine the pain and horror Cruz has been going thru his entire life. imagine how a lonely and depressed guy like Cruz feels like when love of his life rejects him and calls him stalker, this is so horrible. no wonder he broke, he was desperate and desperate times ... require desperate measures, he did the last thing he could. I don't blame him.
@@SethiozProject bruh
@@SethiozProject I see you in multiple replys trying to justify cruz's actions.. How can u pretend that this was justified in any way..
If you get to the point where you are so depressed, sad, in pain or whatever else, there still isnt any justification for murdering innocent people.
Why should they suffer/die to "share his pain"???
As much as suicide is a terrible thing as well, i could MAYBE understand such an action.

That’s what they should do leave him to the parents
@@deviantlord142 most people do get bullied in school, have also been rejected in love and don’t murder people. So yes, he’s a demon.

I get what you mean by 'demon' but I wish people would stop making such comparisons. It plays into his defense that he was possessed or acted with the influence of something not of this world. He is just a man. A man that committed an evil act and hopeful will face the harshest punishment. Then die like the sad man he is.

this blood is on Angie's hands, Cruz just did a horrible thing out of desperation.
Ask yourself this: If Angie would have accepted Cruz as her boyfriend, do you think Cruz would have still gone thru with this shooting? because I can bet my own life on it and say NO! he would have been happy and thrown this idea out of his head, but this b!atch Angie had to reject him... it's all her fault.

The doctors background (specifically his stint in the airforce doing autopsies on American servicemen who were k.i.a. during o.i.f. and the g.w.o.t) make him specifically qualified to explain what gunshot wounds do to a person in terms of the traumatic injuries made by high velocity rifle rounds due to the ballistics and kinetic qualities these rounds have.
This doctor's military background overseas prepared him to handle injuries from going to school in America... When I let that sink in...:(
O.k. If you would have explained yourself more like a civilian instead of writing abbreviations. I would have understood you.
It’s not a military thing, it’s everywhere. Everyone seems to use acronyms excessively nowadays.

Dr. Tops description of the autopsies were in point and he did not miss a beat. He did his due diligence and captured exactly the damage that NC caused to his victims. Him adding the position that the victims were in was needed.

And totally pre meditated! I saw the videos he made laughing and saying you're all going to die.
Totally agree with you.Evil as they come.
Apparently Nikolas Cruz's mother was on crack cocaine while she was carrying him and so he had crack cocaine going into his brain before he was born. As a result he likely has brain damage because of it. As one would expect he has had associated behavioral problems, including violence, all of his life. But you're right, let's put him to death. That will solve the problem for sure. Until of course the same thing happens again. Oh wait. It already has.
Dr. Tops is not only a highly intelligent and qualified Expert, but he was also compassionate in his delivery. This is just all around sad.
Very intelligent and COMPASSIONATE
Luke is a spitting image of his father. May his soul rest peacefully for eternity
That's exactly what I thought. The spitting image of his dad. RIP Luke.

Excellent witness.would have loved him as my professor in nursing school.Great teacher.The jurors are hearing the true damage of these horrific, destroying, pulverizing bullets.😢😢😢
The explanation from Dr. Tops was easy to understand and gives a picture of what could have happened to Luke Hoyer. My impression is Luke was shot first in the pelvic area and as he was falling, he was shot in the neck.
The parents are so strong. Listening to these witnesses day in and day out. My heart goes out to them.
It’s crazy how one bullet can do so much damage to a person’s body
Yup. Biggie Smalls was shot 4 times but 3 out of the 4 were not fatal, missing all of his vital organs until the final shot; the bullet went through his hip and ricocheted into his colon, liver, heart, upper lung and stopped at his shoulder. It truly depends on where the bullet goes. I remember reading about Dustin Theoharis, he was shot 16 times including being shot in the head multiple times and LIVED. He’s not paralyzed or disfigured or anything, just certain joints are more prone to injury now. The human body weird asf
@@XXXTENTAClON227 wow that’s amazing , you learn something new everyday .
@@theyluvaariel these people were shot with a rifle as opposed to a hand gun. The velocity of the bullet fired from a rifle is about 3 times that of a handgun. The equation for kinetic energy shows that speed of the object is exponentially proportional, so by tripling the speed, the energy is about 9 times greater. When the bullet hit a person the energy is released into tissue bones as well as the bullet fragmentation. The tissue is first crushed by temporary cavitation then lacerated by the projectiles (bullets and bone fragments)

Dr. Tops was the best medical examiner at this trial in my opinion. His description of the victims’ wounds was easy to follow, and consequently, you could really get a sense of how the victims suffered.
The one dad just breaks my heart..
You can feel and physically see his devastation.
The medical examiner was very professional considering the horrific injuries *to children*
sad to hear all the details of Luke's death and even sadder that he had a chance of survival if not for the second fatal shot to the neck. Seems like Luke was first shot in the torso while going down assuming he was trying to duck and then while injured on the ground Nikolas goes closer to him to deliver that fatal second shot which shows the no mercy he had in his mind and proves that he can't be free again if spared the death penalty
The expertise and compassion just show forth brilliantly in this doctor! The parents must be in agony hearing this- everyone is agonized.
After listening to all these testimonies and the testimonies of the survivors and what they lost, I can’t help to feel very angry at Marjory Taylor Greene and the people who voted for her after they saw how she harassed Parkland survivors.

Man is well accomplished...pity he's using his expertise in such messed up circumstances
Its crazy that someone can kill your kid and your not allowed to speak to this person or go near them
The poor parents having to go through this my heart breaks for them 💔
Mrs. Hoyer please know your baby is in peace and no longer in pain. I’m so so so sorry he had to endure this. I’m so sorry.
Prayers and love to those poor parents 🙏 I can not imagine the pain and anguish they must be going through listening to that...truly heart breaking..
R I P dear luke.. and all the other victims..
This man has done everything. He’s a true American hero.
Makes him successful, and an expert in his field, not a hero. Jesus.
@@toreckman8899 He is a hero, he helps people. He gives answers as to what caused somebody to pass away. He works hard for the people. Obviously you don’t seem to understand what creates a hero. He is a hero for helping to hopefully put Nikolas Cruz to death.
@@b.f.3636 I help people definitely more than you. Doesn’t make me a hero. You’re what’s wrong with our society. I guarantee to you, the doctor doesn’t see himself as a hero.
Participation trophy winners like you do.
PS - heroes aren’t ‘created’
PSS - if this what has to be done to put a slam dunk mass murderer to death, there’s something serious wrong with the process, wouldn’t you agree?
@@toreckman8899 a military vet and a doctor isn't a hero to you?
@@laurieb3703 by your standards I would have heroes lined up outside my door and up the street. By the other persons standards everyone in the courtroom is a hero because they are trying to send this scum to hell.
What is it with you people and the word ‘hero’?
Like many he’s an accomplished and inspirational human being who has had a stellar career
With that said, I consider him no different than a man who pushes a broom and is able to provide love, education and a roof for his children.
Try setting the bar a little higher mom.
I feel so heart broken for the parents who have to endure and listen to what their child went through…and how the bullet literally destroyed his body that is seriously so heart breakin😢😢😢 god please wrap your arms around them.
The fact that this guy is Still Sitting There makes me furious. I Hope He get's what He deserves
This is so hard to hear.
Why are Americans so hell bent on the "right to bare arms"?? Why are guns so easily accessible??
These young people should be here today living their best lives ever and contributing positively to society. This massacre should never had happened to them.
Because freedom 🇺🇸🦅
Because some people are pathetic and have nothing else to make them feel powerful except a gun.
I'd just like to say ALL these parents (as someone who has a child myself) are incredibly amazing!! I can't imagine what it would take to have to sit there through something like this, for them all to remain within the rules the court laid down... You're all amazing men and women!! I grieve for the loss they've(you) had to go through and I pray for them(you) all!
God help these parents. I can't imagine having to go through what they're going through.
These poor but very brave parents
18:48 eww can you imagine having a bullet there? He’s guilty do not show him mercy.
I can't even begin as a parent imagine the unjustifiable pain and loss these parents feel!! 💔
Just the look on the families faces breaks my heart. I can’t imagine losing one of my children especially in this manner. My heart aches for them more than words can explain,
Why does the title of this video say, Nickolas’ Cruz victim. Does he own the victim? A revision should be made to this headline.
So true
No, the deceased was victimized by Cruz. He owns the crime through which he turned this human being into a victim. That's what that means.
This is so incredibly sad I can’t even imagine what the families of the victims are going through! 😪
Prayers for Luke. Sounds like he was such a sweet kid. Strength to his parents🙏🏼this is just heart breaking.
Phew, close to 100 times testifying in court for forensic evidence… You have to have the mind of steel to be in this occupation and recount all the horrifying bodily trauma you’ve examined. A true professional here.
i cry for everyone affected, i truly cannot imagine what this must feel like. i send these families light and warmth
If nothing else in this trial was enough to sentence Cruz to death, THIS should’ve been it. There’s no way you listen to all this and *STILL* conclude that life in prison should be considered.
He described the deaths with such details, I think he secured the death penalty
Edit. No way Luke hoyer weighed 192lbs no chance
That's not how it works.
@@mountsj the first pathologists to give evidence where careful in what they said oout of respect for parents, Dr tops said it how It was , the wording of j.olivers autospy was sickening, the jury now know a teenagers brain exploded in his head . You would be crazy to think he ain't getting death penalty, it's well secured.
Dylan roof got death for shooting 9 adults with a handgun causing Injurys no we're near as horrific as msd .
@@Jk-ph3zy it's not about the damage caused. It's about motive.
Heartbreaking
my heart honestly goes out to the loved ones of this bastards victims
WOW... High respect for this Dr.
As an Australian watching this, I am heartbroken. My sincerest condolences.
As a human I am heartbroken.
Hopefully you aussies don’t have to deal with horror like this ever
No idea how those parents looked at those photos and sat quiet and still. That rips my heart out thinking of them seeing their beloved son's horrific injuries and what was done to him.
I’m only watching bc I’m from that area but moreso bc I feel like these families need to know that there are strangers whose hearts are just broken for them and their children.
To hear that this young man could have been saved had he received immediate medical attention emerged as all the more heartbreaking! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
That is not true, only the wound that entered his pelvis could have been treated had he received medical attention right away.The other wounds of the neck and torso were fatal.
@@Michelle-dl5go Thank you for this clarification. Apparently misunderstood the doctor’s reporting. I may listen again but it was so tough listening to such details the first time.
@@lesamccoy8373 No problem! And yes it was so devastating to listen to, I just kept thinking how scared they were, poor babies and the three staff members may they rest in peace 😢
He explained that if he had sustained that injury alone, he could've been saved, but the other injury was fatal..
Could have been a possibility yes, been watching this trial for a while now and to my understanding luke and another boy (Martin Duque) were the first victims, they were knocking on their classroom door to get in and at that moment the shooter shot at them probably hitting Luke in the hip first, the shooter went to the other side of the building and started shooting other kids, after that he went back to where he shot luke and the other boy martin and shot them again while they were on the ground, i believe that was the fatal shot to the jaw that ultimately killed him.
So yeah if they did pulled luke into the classroom after the first shot and helped him he might have survived
Sick to my stomach. My condolences & prayers to the families.
Dear God, how do you sit there as a parent and listen to these autopsy details of your child, I have no words.
It's too bad they just can't have a firing squad right in open court.
Much cheaper too!
Keep that same energy if and when someone you love is ever accused and convicted of wrongdoing.
@@dewilew2137 are you serious? If your family member shoots up a school and kills 17 kids out of hatred of the world and community I hope you’d disown them
If he was here in South Carolina, he could face a firing squad
Too quick tho
My oldest son age 55 died unexpectedly,recently. I don't want to see or hear autopsy results nor did I view him at the funeral home. I know he's dead but only saw him alive. I can't imagine the pain, anguish and rage these parents must feel. Hearing and viewing autopsy reports must be horrendous. Praying for comfort 🙏🙏🙏
I’m sorry for your loss. I hope you are able to find peace and solace. 🕊❤️
How can not view your son? Terrible.
@@joyrarefilly5354why would you even question this she wanted to remember him as he was thats not terrible ur terrible
Lots of people had tough breaks, especially kids raised in care or by abusive parents or drug addicts/ alcoholics. This teenager was abusing and threatening his adopted mum before she died ( per the bank employee), frightening classmates and torturing animals. He was buying guns months before the killings. 'The love of his life' was another target to control, he sent the coercive text messages as a guilt trip. Lots of people saw enough to worry them- if they all informed police and if police had reacted appropriately maybe this could have been prevented and this teenager might have taken the opportunity to turn his life around. It was his decision to kill those children and he was helped by bought off politicians who make available the type of weapon that enabled him to shoot 34 people in under 6 minutes, killing 17.
Sadly, I do not think that the police would have responded.
They DID inform the authorities, including the FBI.
He could have done that with a handgun. Both are semi-automatic. He could have done that with a bomb which would have been more devastating. Taking away guns won't cure our country of sick and demented kids who slip through the cracks of our society. Fixing mental health and checking in on everyone is the only cure.
@@giancarlocarattini4985 They did? Well... now I have some questions. If I post a dick pic online my life would be over, but this kid makes dark comments about killing people and the FBI just lets it happen? Almost like they wanted this to happen to push anti-gun laws. That would mean these kids were sacrificed for a political agenda, and I wouldn't be shocked. Call me crazy if you want, but these politicians don't give a crap about you or me or anyone but themselves.
No legal way to stop gun ownership without mental commitment history or felony conviction or domestic violence conviction.
Can't imagine what these kids went through and what their parents are going through. No one deserve this type of evil. Stay strong. 😢
I'm here crying my eyes out years after the happening. Can't imagine what the victims and the parents are going through and making that monster wear a glasses to make him look the opposite of what he really is (monster👹👿) is pathetic 😡🤬
The huge glasses make him look worse. He has got to be the ugliest person on the planet.
That's gotta be the hardest thing in the absolute word to be a parent and listen to how their kid died. Prayers to them.
Sick to my stomach...
Rest peacefully Sweet Luke..
It hurts to hear the medical examiner’s testimony. Knowing what they do, you never want to hear their report on your family.. heart breaking.
These poor paarents... Both my son and daughter-in-law work in schools here in East Tx as well as 4 grandchildren still in school and one great grandson. I worry and pray they get thru their days at school safely. In my days [ early fifties to late sixties ], this type of atrocity was unheard of. So heartbreaking...
Well it's not unheard of now. And you should be scared. Right-Wing MAGA Cultists and psycho-sociopaths run the State of Texas, they give NOT ONE SHXT about you/your family. Period. Uvalde definitely was not the first nor the last. Apathetic Texans are Pathetic.
Mrs Linda do you think back in the sixties these things weren’t “happening” because there was just no media coverage? Or was it really because it just wasn’t happening. I hate that they record all of this. Like a movie. It’s a little bit disturbing but I still watch 😞
@@Camposlearningjourney I was in kindergarten in NJ in 1953 and high school in early/almost mid sixties... the worst trouble ppl got in was for smoking cigarettes in the bathrooms, throwing spitballs and chewing gum... I think anything as sensational as this topic would have been covered on the nightly news station such as the on the university campus back in the day. Before that I was naive to think schools and churches were safe... so maybe both can be true.
Ban assault weapons in America. PERIOD. End of sentence.
nope everyone needs to keep their weapons
These poor babies suffered something my heart can’t conceive
Prayers for the Parents
Prayers 🙏
