I dont see a heroine addict. I see someone desperately trying to escape a life of pain.
True so true , life was so bad she just needed something to numb the pain
she wants better so badly i believe, im so sad we need to create some help for her
Branmuffin That’s exactly what I see too. It breaks my heart.
Totally agree. Well put.
Branmuffin really? I see a junkie/ piece of shit mother.
Childhood trauma: the real gateway drug.
Tammy May Cormier YESS!! 👏🏼
Tammy May Cormier wow!!! I never thought about it that way. Eye opening.
So very true, I sadly know from experience!!
Thank goodness I had support or who knows where I would be!!??
Yes, those poor, traumatised people have only this in life, drug helps feel no pain.
Exactly..
The way she looks around the studio at the beginning and with that Hello Kitty tattoo on her arm - I can see the lost and frightened child in her. Poignant and heartbreaking.
Ugh. 💔💔💔
From the start, she just described everything in one go. You can tell she's been in her head a lot just replaying her life.
Poor baby
hhmm i got that too kind'a. at least one part in the brain has boredom
So sad. No pity, just an ache for Justice. I wish the world for her. From the stories puppy know she wouldn’t know how to handle a positive environment. Love. Constant, consistent love. I hope it finds her and she can breathe.
This poor woman wasn’t prostituted at 14, she was trafficked.
FourWingedAngels
Same fucking shit.
Phoenix Rising um no
Madrona Black umm yes
She's a liar and would never tell you the truth because it would make her look bad. She would never admit that "I was bored with my friends and we decided to get high. I became addicted and was so strung out I couldn't work a job to pay it so I started whoring myself out." It's always someone else's fault, they will never admit their mistakes because that doesn't make you feel sorry for her and give her money. These junkie parasites are scam artists and cons
Daniel Dryden oh yes of course that’s how it always goes! Wow you know it all don’t you lmao
Absolutely ZERO eye contact.. A tell tale sign of abuse.. despair & depression...truly heartbreaking.
So true heartbreaking
I totally agree
@@liveyourbestsoftlife5705 no one feels bad for you and your bullshit. There's still black people that are going through this, and every other race at that, you do nothing but spread hate, you contribute to the shit part of humanity and nothing else.
FTP
No one told her to put a needle in her arm.
You could tell she's in physical pain from her injuries during this interview. I feel very sorry for her and hope she's in a much better place today.
The only way she could be in pain, is if the dope is wearing off.
@@jessespad heroin is an analgesic, true - but for those who use it regularly and have built up a tolerance it becomes a far less effective pain reliever. Plus it often only lessens pain, not remove it entirely
I'm doing gear as I watch this. Woke up sick as a pig and trust me it don't get rid of pain just slightly blocks it emotionally and physically
@@dannysouthendutdramsay1212 what’s gear?
@@br00klynnative58 heroin!
Her face looks so painful. These interviews hurt my heart. But they’re also incredibly important and hopefully build empathy in people that do not understand trauma and addiction.
I hope they help people to have understanding and empathy. Anti drug propaganda has caused the general public to see addicts as some sort of shameful villains rather than traumatized, hurt people. The criminal “justice” system turned drug use into a moral and ethical issue which is never what it was about, but theirs still so many who truly do not understand.
@@memyselfi2005 yes.
When a child says they’re being abused, believe them.
Just Somebody true! Kids don’t know how to lie (unless coached but that’s abuse in itself
Thinking the same thing. If my kid would tell me my husband was abusing him, I would react. I hope I would... :(
I've seen where a parent knows but is so dependent on the abuser for everything that they choose to look the other way. It's really sad.
this is so so so important, people need to believe children
Just Somebody That shit of a mother for sure knew.
She is absolutely defeated. Her facial expression is just permanent sadness.
A true broken soul
Definitely feels broken and unloved. I feel for girls like her it’s so so sad.
This is so sad!! 😭😭😭😭
Melencholy, I hate this world sometimes
Ray C ~ I’ve been binge watching his videos, and this one struck me as the most heartbreaking. Just in the very beginning her face is so heartbreakingly sad. I’m so sorry Christie😢
Before she even started speaking I started crying. I only used for 8 months before I had a single overdose & have been sober since. It breaks my heart to see how far this addiction can take you & I couldn’t thank god more that I took the second chance I was given. I pray each of these people have the awakening they need before it’s too late
❤
Be wicked proud of yourself Sam! There's not a lot of us who get out of that life alive. Everyday is beautiful and a blessing
Samantha bogdan my god you are stunning what country do you live in
@@leehollebon4777 yikes dude 😂🤣
Amen🙏some dogs are treated better than this poor woman, no one should have to live like this, she needs a break!!! May she get what she desires and get well and get an apartment and see her daughter more, God bless her, please send the right people to help her and support and love her, so sad, I pray that this wicked bondage is broken in the name of our precious saviour Jesus Christ of Nazareth! 💖🕊🙏
Very sad interview. She comes across as a soft soul who has been preyed on and abused her whole life and has had no one to fight her corner. It's disgusting to think that she probably sees multiple men a day and none of them have any compassion for her situation and just see her as a sex object. I hope she gets her life back on track one day.
How can she get her life back on track when it’s never been on track? She’s been abused by men her entire life. She’s never had a chance.
Poor girl, you can see that she is ashamed, and broken. Not everyone is born into a loving and good life.
The world needs more compassion, help those in need.
A lot of drug addicts are born into good families, families who can afford to care for them. Families who love them and can ensure they receive a good education.. Etc etc etc. It simply does not matter. That is what's scary.
@@Stephanie-hc3sg that wasnt the point.
@@Stephanie-hc3sg Yes, that is some times the case. Some times however people are in such a bad situation in there life that they really don't stand a chance.
@@zacharyward3068 fk off, junkie
Poor girl my eye. She has made choices that have consequences. She is paying for those choices and SO ARE WE.
Her family disowned her for interacting with black people. Wow.
Teeterr my reaction exactly
I was like what in the world they most likely called her a wigger
Her family members are the ignorant ones. I feel for her and pray for her healing.
Her family probably disowned her because she was hanging out with drug addicts .. who just so happened to be black.. two sides to every story
@@savannahshon5928 You don't know that ... now do you? You're making an assumption, based on how she lives her life. Funny though, going on your premise, it's okay to deal with white drug addicts, but not black ones.
Racial hatred is racial hatred -- got nothing to do with drug addiction. However, it has everything to do with socio-economic status, skin color, prejudice, and bigotry. Hell, neither of her parents are morally, legally, or ethically fine models of society, doing drugs themselves. Sometimes there are MORE than two verisions to a story. Believe that.
She is so exhausted. I wish we could give her one peaceful night in a safe place for sleep. Completely broken watching some of these. Wish nothing but the best for her. I hope she finds peace.
me too.
You wouldn't take her in for a night punk
well said. my heart aches for this young lady.
She passed away. RIH
@@michele21auntiemReally😮? Where can I read about it? Do you know her name? This is absolutely HORRIBLE! Thank you
I am so thankful that I had two loving parents that watched me carefully and I did not have to endure any sexual abuse as a child. I wish we could wipe all of these evil demons off the face of the earth.
Amen

@@ChanceInLove Amen? God was the first pedo
She still looks like a lost child. Poor girl
Kim Le she is a lost child !! 14!!
@@michelleguzman3277 I meant like, a toddler, those innocent baby eyes... but damn, 14! I must have missed that! Poor darling!
Kim Le she isn’t 14, she said that she’s been on the streets since she was 14
Meh. She didn’t have to put a needle in her arm and bang dudes for $20 bucks. Poor girl “goes to the girl who goes to school and is working for a better further. This thing got brought to LA from her pimp since she was early teens. Whoever she chose to hang with messed her up. Bad.
@@jessicalychee8376 your lack of empathy is astonishing, please stay on your little pedestal away from anyone that is struggling as you will only keep them down.
In her defense, she wasn’t even provided the general basics of a head start in life. I honestly & sincerely understand how she got to this point in life. Her parents literally failed her before the world ever could.
In her defence?Like she is quilty of something??In her "image" you cen reflect our "westernized" society in it's true face...
I know plenty of people who were never provided the general basics and turned out fine and not a drug addict
@@wonderlove447 Ok but not everyone is the same so that's irrelevant lol
@@wonderlove447 Yeah, but it's very rare.
@@wonderlove447 people deal with trauma in different ways
If I could find this girl, I would let her stay in my home and I would do absolutely everything in my power to help her. She's the saddest and most defeated person I've ever seen. I seriously would nurse her back to health and show her love and kindness.
From what I gather, shes dead now
Get in touch with Mark, he can probably help you find her.
Be careful. Heroin addicts are accomplished liars and will promise to quit but at the first sign of cold turkey they will sell everything you own to the pawn shop just to get one fix.
@@bmmaaate exactly
What a beautiful thing to say
Every part of this interview was crushing, but the "probably sounds like everybody else's [story]" really got me at the end there. She's not wrong. We don't all live in LA but there are people suffering in the same way around our own street corners that we have the opportunity to help. At the very least to talk to in a way Mark does. Not judgmental but caring.
dont worry, shes surely dead by now :)
Yes! That would be a big step in the right direction.
It was the, "probably sounds like everybody else's story" that got me... almost like she feels guilty for acknowledging the severity of her situation
I felt the same thing. Poor girl. God bless
No she said that because she has first hand experience of cause and effect. The majority of people who come from ruff upbringings turn out like her. She has heard similar stories told be people she knows. Same with me everybody I met while i was homeless chasing meth or heroine has a dysfunctional past. 90% of the time.
Zach Ryan that's why I said "almost"... wasn't saying that's necessarily the case
Yes, it’s like she said that to make it seem like she knows she’s not special because she know people will judge. My heart is aching for her and anyone in similar situations.
Zach Ryan why are you saying “no” lmfao.. the original comment was correct and subjective. You can’t just disagree lmfao
She is absolutely broken you can see it in her body language and her eyes are vacant so sad.
Those were my exact thoughts. She doesn't want to do what she's doing. I think she thinks there's no way to get out, or just maybe doesn't know how or where to start.
Yea
I was going to comment the same thing. You beat me to it.
Bro that’s absolutely obviously obvious!
Honestly, she's so well spoken, knows what is going on, understands the questions and answers cognitively. Hope the best for yoy Christine!
Hi there? Hope you’re fine and staying safe?
It’s so sad how so many interviewees are so quick to tell their stories often only being asked one or two questions. They finally have a chance to tell someone
This poor woman.. Life has been just so cruel to her.. She didn't deserve any of this! Nobody does!
spiralout72 so people aren’t able to not come from well off backgrounds? The fuck?
spiralout72 You’re part of the problem. Fuck your apathy. Happy, stable people don’t do heroin. It’s a painkiller. It numbs all feeling. People who take it are desperately seeking some exit door out of life.
spiralout72 she literally said her dad molested her? Her sister also ran off how is that a good stable family?
Addiction doesn't discriminate anyone can be an addict. To be honest I think it's ridiculous to think everything she said throughout this interview is true considering she never even looked up from the ground, she mumbled and paused constantly throughout the whole interview, she played the victim card every chance she got and never once took ownership for anything that happened in her life. And literally shit on everyone mentioned throughout the whole interview, plus she's an active addict. Active addicts lie every chance they get and don't even realize it, this is coming from an addict in recovery.
@@christina7215 your heart is as hard as stone. She is the very picture of pitiful and anyone with some basic humanity would feel so very sorry for her. You sound self-righteous and condescending as hell - where is your sympathy?
She looks total defeated by this life. A permanent sadness. I felt like her SOUL IS TIRED.
Mrs. 11:11 Jesus said “Come to me, all you who are burdened and heavy laden, and I will give you rest. “She needs the only remedy, Jesus.
I feel hopeless for her. How do you actually get through this. From day one she's been abused, & mistreated.. I don't know @ this point if her body/mind/soul could even prossess happiness or true peace.. not in this life. I don't say it to be mean.. It just seems like entirely too much for one lifetime . My heart aches for her
brandogrl the only way she gets good in the next life is through salvation in the Lord Jesus Christ.
brandogrl There is always hope for a suffering addict as long as God puts breath in their body. I am a recovering addict with trauma, and a substance abuse counselor of 18 years.
@@sharonhare4835 Jesus also gives us doctors when we are sick and rehabilitation centers when we are drug addicted. Unfortunately Jesus allowed people to be molested, raped and abused when they were children and now they have trauma and trying to numb that pain. Jesus please just heal it, you are all powerful. Jesus, please heal, love, and nurture your precious children, please.
5 years recovering from heroin addiction myself. The look on her face is honestly devastating
10 years clean here man! Great job! We can do it!
Probably one of the saddest interviews I've watched, I wish could give her a hug. Truly heartbreaking.
These girls deserve our help and not our judgement. A lot of people think “oh, they knew what they were doing!” Uh, no they didn’t. What 14 year old child knows the consequences or even dangers of living in the streets? Furthermore these girls are threatened and beaten in order to keep them compliant and they’re given drugs to keep them docile. As a society it should be our job as adults to protect little boys and girls at all costs, if you see something, say something. If a child tells you they’re being abused, BELIEVE THEM, children don’t make up lies like these for no reason.
Yolanda G good to see like minded folks. We must stand strong for our country and the people that make it what it is. Although I’m pretty sure we were cursed to begin with. Nothing goes right here. Seriously we need a new reform through and though.
Amen. This woman is a victim, not a perpetrator.
I agree,,, the children deserve protection. But once you get to this point, it’s difficult. This woman has learned to survive on the streets. She has adopted the streets as her reality and unless she makes the decision to dedicate her efforts to make it out of that lifestyle, she will remain in that cycle. I’ve met several ppl like her. It’s very very sad. Only she knows what it’s going to take to change her life.
My mother warned me not to go play in the woods, bc there where men who would harm me. But the only harmful men lived in my home. Always believe your kids, they need your protection. And this young woman broke my heart, she obviously needs protection and a lot of love to heal..
@@ili1017 she can't make this decision on her own, she's addicted with no family/friends..
This one really hurt me. You can tell she’s truly defeated and drained emotionally.
I agree. Your hot.
I don't usually get why girls go down a drugs selling themselves but this girl got to me also ,, poor girl is so broken I hope she finds her way out but I fear is she so broken she cant be fixed so so sad , what a waste of a life , gob bless her
@@opiumdensRus Wow. Gross.
Eric Roberts bahahaha
Andro X ew lol
I've never seen anyone look so sad and depleted. I wish I could take her as a mother, give her a safe, warm landing spot with a nice bubble bath and a home-cooked meal. It looks like she needs a clean, comfortable bed, a long sleep, and lots of love and hugs. I have a daughter and can't imagine her in that shape. So incredibly sad.
I can see what she would look like without all the abuse and a grime, the pain and the drugs and she is so beautiful she really is. She was a Sweet child that's been broken down. I pray to God that she finds the way out of this life .Amen
The depth of her sadness feels endless.
She needs Jesus to save her soul
Yep, usually why you start doing heroin ... Pain
I cant stop watching these videos and i've associated with the homeless and addicts for some reason they are drawn to me and i am to them
Vicki Baker Jesus isn’t real. If god was real he wouldn’t let this happen unless he was a malevolent being. If that’s the case, fuck him. Stop worshipping nothingness
@@beckee6282 ya that's why I have a hard time with religion. Whats the purpose of life if this is the shit were put through 🥺
When people say “it’s a choice” and that they have non compassion for people on the streets because they “did it to themselves”. I wish they would watch these videos.
it blows my mind and breaks my heart. same as when people don’t understand that addiction is a disease. bless you
You would need SUPER human strength to get through this and be successful.
I agree. If you had a good role model or mentor be grateful for them. Not everyone is fortunate enough to have good role models and mentors. I feel so bad for this woman, she was abused as a child, that's where it all began. So heart breaking. She clearly has a vision of a better life but all the trauma she's gone through stops her. Sigh. I wish I could help somehow.
is it a choice, yes, do they do it to themselves yes.
Exactly
This poor young girl has had no decent family or boyfriends! ( the boyfriend that got her hooked on crack since 14 ! ) Jesus, just a child.
She has been abused by everyone she had the misfortune to meet since birth.
I’m amazed she got clean for 2 whole years with all that against her. That proves she has strength.
She needs just one decent person to give her a lift in life.
This girl really needs to have a follow up vid to know she is ok :0/
the fact her family disowned her when she was being trafficked and needed help as a 14 year old CHILD is so appalling
Spot on. I just want to hug her and give her a room at my place.
She isn’t going to be found to do another video. Sad but she’s a train wreck
She could’ve continued on that upward trajectory when she got clean but instead her baby daddy abused her and it just sent her right back to where she started. Absolutely awful human being.
@@chrisarm3047 open your doors
This is the saddest person I have ever seen. God I feel so bad for her. I just want to hug her.
This just shows not all drug addicts aren’t bad people, they are hurt people. We need to provide more help for drug addicts
Lauren Gilley they have to want the help for it to work. I’ve seen first hand. They can have all the help in the world but if they refuse it, it’s pointless.
Lauren Gilley Absolutely!
Not all of them
there’s always going to be successful people & there’s always going to be the people sleeping in tents. it’s reality. & we can’t help everybody. they have to help their self.
No. Drug addicts can be all kinds of people. I would agree if you said not all drug addicts are bad. Often how they are depends on how their character was before ever being fucked up high, their current state of mind, what kind of drugs they are on, and whether they are high at that moment, coming down, or having withdrawls.
Damn dude this fuckn hurts . She never had family to help her out . She’s someone’s kid, how can you leave em n in the streets .
Erika Anjanette Is he supposed to take everyone in?
Not only they didn't help her, they are the very reason why she ended up like this
Probably a really toxic household. She was trafficked when she was 14 smh. I don’t get it either. How could you let your child live this way?
SweetPhantom I’m not from Texas but still in the south. It’s easier for interracial couples now. My nieces cousins are mixed race and it’s none of the older family members say anything. When I hear someone do it though they never blame the children. “The mother should have known better!” Which just isn’t right. We’re all the same.
It Would have been great if somebody help her or help her now but the first step needs to be her, if she don't have the confidence of doing something about . Even if she haves all of her fam with her to help , if she don't want to get better she wont.
This girl wasn’t given the chance. I watch so many of your videos, and if anyone I’ve seen that has struck a chord with me, it’s her. She needs help, rehab, support system, road map to get where she needs because looking at her, she is capable of getting there. I hope you take her under your wing and teach her how to fly. You are a very inspiring man. Thank you for making a difference.
This interview really stuck with me too.
When you think your life is hard and you listen all this ppl and what they've been through 😢 you realise how lucky you are. Really sad to hear so many ppl been abused by parents..
When she said she wants to go back to school, have an apartment and be with her daughter in the next five years, that broke my heart. I pray and hope she gets a chance to live a life like that❤
Alexandria Nguyen Amen 🙏🏽 me too!! This made me cry 😭
Even as she said it in her mind it must have been like.... Fuck... Its not gonna happen... Why am i even dreaming
.....she keeps on mumbling away for a few more seconds and brushes away her tears from her face with her hand.
It is heartbreaking .
What the fuck is praying going to do? Make you feel better about someone else's misery? Yeah close your eyes and hope for the best. Instead maybe get out there and learn about what's really going on.
@@TerminusEst1982 if you're not the type of person to pray that's fine. I dont expect everyone to do it. I pray because I believe there can be change. Also I'm not saying praying is the only option... yes I do agree something should be done in order to prevent all of this from happening, I wish I could help this lady get back on her feet and start a fresh new life, not only her but to all of those who are in need. I've volunteered to help some of those individuals and they've shared their stories with me about their struggle. It doesnt matter if you're religious or not, this lady is pleading for help and torn in the inside. The only thing we can do is hope for the best for her.
@@TerminusEst1982 just because you don't believe in praying doesn't mean you need to be an asshole to someone who does. Its simply just a way of giving hope and respect to someone because alot of the time, we can't do anything to help. I'm not even religious either but at least I dont shame people for going by what they believe in :/
This is so sad.. she can’t even look up or look into his eyes to talk. She is just a shell of a human being
I hope she gets clean and gets to live the life she deserves
She's obviously stimming by going side to side like that in the chair. I would safely say she's autistic along with all the other issues. :(
It's Amanda I wouldn’t be so quick to call it autism, PTSD can mimic a lot of the symptoms of ASD. it’s truly a tragedy what this girl had to go through.
@@LadyDelSangue87 really?? Autism?? That's the same body language someone gives when they are not being truthful. It blows my mind how many people in these comments jump to crazy ass conclusions based off a ten minute video of some junkie answering questions.
My heart breaks for her! Sending positivity, love, and healing vibes for her! One day at a time, we do recover! I hope she finds her recovery!
This interview was one of the most heartbreaking 💔 ones to watch, and I've watched a lot of SWU clips. Oh my, this poor child. Some never have a chance. 😢🙏😢

Moona1966 I just want to hug her 😢 ugh you can feel her want more human connection when he says “Good luck out there!” And she goes, “alright....” 💔
She is still the 14 year old whose soul was ripped from her body. So very tragic
14? Or when she was 5 being molested by her father?
Her pain just radiates even though she’s probably so numb she feels nothing anymore, just a shell of the human she once was.
💔💔💔
After so many hardships and years and the street her beauty shines right through! She is a sad beautiful woman. I hope she is doing better now 🙏🏻
She really disowned because she “messed” with black people , she started at 14, she got beaten and she is mentally hurting I wish her all the best. I’m so sorry for her
Sammy ! - Hmm. She says that her family disowned her because she messed with black people, but you don’t know if it’s true. I find it hard to believe anyone is that racist nowadays.
Nonetheless, it’s extremely extremely sad.
@Betsy Ross believe me there are still people who are racist like that. And yeah that's sad
@@betsyross9503 you find it hard to believe anyone is that racist? Aw, ignorance is bliss.
@@betsyross9503 - there are certainly racists. Im sure you know a few, even if it goes over your head.
@@betsyross9503, sad to say, there are so many on the streets because their parents are so fricking racist. Racism is at every corner you turn. I could not disown my child for something as trivial as that, even if it came down to a divorce with my husband, we brought our kiddos into this world and we are the only true parents they get. God in trusted them to us, not to abuse them in any way, but to love them through what they are dealing with. I do realize at some point the tough love has to come out, but it doesn't involve beating them or sexually abusing them, those are sick parents that do that.
This poor kid has been used her entire life
😞 RIP Christie, just saw a clip that she passed. 1991-2024 🙏🏼
So sad, RIP Christie 😭😭💔💔
Oh wow she did? God bless her
So sorry to hear. R.i.P🙏
It all stems from such a traumatic childhood. I hope she gets the help she needs to turn her life around!
Imagine being so broken and used that running away with a pimp sounded like a better living situation
Daisy Adkins exactly.....why don’t people understand that?
Sorry I'm French but what's a pimp? Is it linked with prostitution or drugs?
@@potipwa A pimp is a person who controls prostitutes and arranges clients for them. They make money of prostitutes, a bit like being sort of a manager.
@@mandy22f thanks, that's what I was thinking
It's called sex trafficking. He groomed her for it idiot.
The fact that these poor women think they started 'prostituting' as teens, they were abused. My heart breaks.
This
I’m so glad you said that. I just can NOT understand how the world thinks girls/women choose to do this and can just easily stop working and stop getting used, stop getting abused, stop self harming ….
Best comment Iv seen in years girl x x
It’s called trafficking
This is the most ignorant comment ever. She chose to sell bums.
We truly need more social programs for these people. These are kids who fell through the cracks. Really devastating.
I’m really so sorry for what this young lady has been through. My heart breaks for so many of the people Mark interviews.
The look on her face is the epitome of absolute sadness.
She wouldn't know love if it starred her right in the face.
Definitely a strong lookin face
Yeah man, she is just so beat up. Them streets will always beat a human being up so bad. It’s a un winnable fist fight with them streets.
Yep agreed
Her face has a painfull look her voice sounds defeated.God please help her amen🐞
She is suffering to the point of numbness. There is no
real emotions, other than pain. She is in a ptsd survival
mode. I hope by the grace of God she is given a way
out before its too late.
Kim if god existed then she wouldn’t have been molested as a 5 yo child, or trafficked as a 14 yo child, then abused repeatedly and unloved to this day.
@@snowbird7377 All that happened to her was because of Satan's power over people who hurt her. They allowed themselves to listen to his promptings rather than God's.

@@funneboneskupcake3694 if god is all-powerful, he’d be able to stop this woman’s life from being brutalized from childhood. with all due respect, any god that allows this to happen to a person is a god that i fucking hate.
@@funneboneskupcake3694 lmao shut up fuck
That loss of hope you can see in every fibre of her being is so gutwrenching. Even when she spoke of where she’d like to be in 5 yrs there was no determination behind her words. I empathise so much, as vastly different as our worlds may seem. I hope with all sincerity she is alive and on her way to fulfilling the dream I don’t think even she believes she can fulfil.
Pretty sure she passed on.Pretty sure people that far gone don’t come back.Anythings possible but nothings guaranteed
All these videos are things you can not un see...but this one I'll never be able to un see. This was absolutely heart wrenching...I so hope that this woman finds real love and gets the help she needs and gets to a better place. She deserves a better and happy life .
This poor girl never had a chance. I hope she gets help and is okay.
This made me sick to my stomach , literally 😢
😢
Laura Sutcliffe It was so saddening to watch. Her whole life has been nothing but pain. I just want to give her a hug, a warm safe place to live and tell her everything is going to be okay. 😢
This is the result of a human being who never experienced love, even from childhood with parents. She was never loved, cared for, or protected to develop her own sense of self worth and self love. So incredibly sad. I truly think her only cure is self love to get out of this mess and violence, but I think she first needs to experience unconditional love from someone else. I think this is why many abandoned addicts find religion and God as a means to sobriety.
and yet there are also plenty of people with awful upbringings, but they don't end up as drug users etc.....
Amen. Well said. I never had peace until I developed my relationship with God.
@@MzAnzu They made the choice to stick a needle in there arm! fuck them!
That's just there excuse they use to do this shit. Its everyone's personal choice.
lar4305 she was a baby when a PIMP POS took her and put her on the street!
Oh man my heart is so broken watching these interviews. I wish I could play a part to help!
So heartbreaking! My heart goes out to you darling. Much love and blessings. Please stay safe.🥺🤍
Her constant rocking is a way of soothing yourself. She can’t even look up and keep eye contact. Heartbreaking!
Hi there? Hope you’re fine and staying safe??
Congratulations you are able to observe a video 👏
All I see is pain, in her eyes. I don’t think she has ever felt anything else but pain. So sad.
Jeannie French what eyes. She never looked up. She has scabs on her face and babies. What eyes!!

RainSara wow how hard did you search for that one second 💔poor girl. She never had to put a needle in her arm.
@@jessicalychee8376 it came up as I read your comment. Haha
@@jessicalychee8376 shut up
This is the sadness person I have ever seen. I just want to hold her tight and tell her she deserves better....
Christi needs to hear the words, I love you
God bless you mark you are so amazing. I wish I could sit down and give you my life story as a drug addict from 12 yrs old untill now 30 yrs old. I'm near Vancouver BC. Love u man thank you for everything you do I wish we had more people like you in this world
So many of these stories involve molestation. It’s just heartbreaking.
Child molesters should get the death penalty. It's on par with murder for the damage it does.
It's everywhere. Most victims never speak about it.
If you are used as a sex object, it's the road to Hell
Almost all of them. It's my experience that it often does more damage than physical violence abuse because when people see physical scars they will more likely get help for you, but people treat sexual abuse like it's something you just get over but it doesn't work like that. Then the emotional survival mechanisms start to turn on you and people don't want to deal with you and the cycle continues. My dad and stepgrandfather molested me most of my childhood and somehow I avoided some of the pitfalls many of my peers have with drugs and alcohol but I have some pretty severe emotional problems and extreme night terrors. I have a lot of heroin and alcohol addiction in my family and I believe that my trauma from seeing and experiencing the results of that gave me a healthy fear of it as well as the fear of being out of control. I smoke way too much weed though and I start dissociating if I don't have it for a long time. I got pregnant as a teen and they took my babies, as well. I wasn't even on drugs or anything. It just seems to start a cycle of serious problems for kids who get molested, especially by incest. Its the most prevalent and widespread in the entertainment industry but it's also very common in foster care and children's homes. LA is a hotbed for child molestation especially because of its prevalence in the entertainment industry. They have the most lax child abuse laws.
@@WeRNthisToGetHer I'm so sorry that you've experienced those things and I commend your bravery to share and to avoid drugs/alcohol. Peace, love and healing energy to you dear.
Imagine being disowned for having black friends...it’s clear her life was never easy,not even for a second
Edit: y’all have such peripheral vision. I was molested too. I didn’t want to think about it. Just because I pointed one thing out doesn’t mean I’m ignoring the rest. Y’all act like children,fr.
Lil Bicch 💔
Lil Bicch yeah it’s enough to make you want to be anything and everything your shitty parents didn’t want you to become.
Lil Bicch not surprised
My mother ..
Daniel she was 14.....they just left their 14 year old to be out on the street. Knowing she was hanging with older guys. A 14 year old GIRL at that. No excuse for what they did.
This woman is worth so much more than this. Bless her heart. Heartbreaking.
Firstly RIP and thank you For both of U. he is such an amazing person we can all learn from him. It's terrible what happened and the lack of support and aid for this incredible man. I wish he had a larger voice he could of been given such a voice as his message is so strong. Thank U for giving us the opportunity to hear and learn from one of the most amazing people. Thank you
the pain in her eyes is heartbreaking. she is so broken by how people have treated her. she hates herself. so sad.
@@christina7215 you are a beast, an evil idiot with no heart. Shut up please.
@@christina7215 You are disgusting. A vile, closed minded, racist puke. To say she DESERVES THIS! I always say we are ALL equal...but you my dear are a different breed...lower then gutter low.
Christina x ur ugly as fuck
Her family disowned her for hanging out with black people.....Like the nerve of her them. What they put her through and disown her over THAT?! I feel bad for her. She’s so damaged.
Her family sounds terrible in general. Not surprising that they're racist.
I don't believe that claim at all I think that is a deflection of why they really want nothing to do with her - because she is a selfish drug addict who lies and steals.
2020...its time to eradicate all sick blind hatred!!!!
@@HB-ey2dk true she might be lying
Cleo Mbangi maybe, but who knows? nobody but her. she might be damaged mentally by the drugs and abuse. either way, i hope she gets help 🤷♀️
This was a hard watch. I wish and pray for their pain to go away. My stomach turned so much watching this. Lord I hope you build a hedge of protection around this young lady and her children.
There you go. All good now.
I just saw Christie's video and now it's Feb 2022 ..Christie was understandably despondent and she left me in tears..l pray to God that people give her the respect she deserves!
I am a grown woman and every part of me wants to put my arms around this girl & hug her, tell her it will be ok. Help her in any way I can. No one should ever have to live a life like hers
What's stopping you?
Ali Scone so help her. Be the one. Go ahead.
Ross Taylor she's only trying to be kind. Why does that concern you?
Jessica Lychee again I sense anger here I may be wrong,but both you & Ross sound ticked off at the woman's simple statement of wanting to be kind. Did you ever think she might be ill herself?
Many empathetic people say things such as they'd wish to help.
What you don't hear is many have no transportation to get to the destination,they could even be mentally ill.
Some of the most empathetic ppl are.
I don't get the rude comebacks to this kind woman's just simply wanting to help.
People are wanting to help re the fires in Australia too.
But they pray to whatever faith they have & try & appreciate everyday life more.
Because who knows ,it could all be taken away like that.
You could lose your home & rough it on the streets.
So,if it were me....
It's not.
Please think before you write words that may hurt others.
We live in dangerous times full of cyber bullies,
Or just plain ppl that don't use their minds to think of their words effects
Upon others,not knowing their ages young -old
Online isn't a safe place anymore
Sorry, she is a grown woman. Not a "girl". Be respectful please.
As a recovering addict myself, trauma is usually the catalyst for drug use especially sexual assault. A child's brain structure is altered by trauma. I am grateful this man interviews addicts educating the world.
@@EchoBravo370 : most of all addicts say- when you ask them on the beginning of a rehab - oh yes I had a good childhood!!
Or at least - I had a pretty normal childhood...
But by 95 % when you ask deeper you will see that there was a lot of "not normal", a lot of violence, divorses, illnesses - physically and just more psychically, lonlyness, child abuse and neglect, emotionally emptyness, early deaths and so on and on...- in one word - a lots of trauma...!!!
But if you don't know anything else pretty all is normal for you...!!
Most of the addicts that you ask after a therapy would not say again that they had a '' good' or just even normal childhood'...!!!!!
Trauma happens on many levels, and a lot of it is unknown to people because it's societally accepted. There are professionals out there who are more and more aware of how this works and also what can be done about it, even later in life (check out Gabor Maté, and Bessel van der Kolk here on YT, just to name 2). But common understanding, legislation and enforcement of legislation are very slow to pick up on the scientific understanding of trauma... often also strongly hindered by politics.
@@EchoBravo370 yes ..
@@EchoBravo370 Yeah I agree! A LOT of the drug addicts I know were actually from rich families or mostly very good families and nothing traumatic ever happened to them they just couldn't give it up.
666 likes, idk
wait i love the way this was edited in the intro!?! MARK DO MORE INROS LIKE THIS
Bless her Heart! She’s so sad, lonely and lost. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️❤️❤️
One of the saddest stories. She looks absolutely fractured. Shame on the human race.
You use written word well.
😓😓😓
Shame on her parents. It's our job to protect and love our kids. They did neither. No 14yr old deserves a life like that.
darcie emge yup
Yes but most states help these addicts with methadone maintenance. And possibly housing n or a shelter
Completely broken. I wish so much for this woman and her future - and her kids, wherever they may be.
All I want to do is wrap my arms around her and never let go 😭😭
Let me just ask you how you can feel bad for someone like this? Like for real? Can’t even think straight because of drugs.
Andrew Link Maybe because we are normal human being with feelings and emotions? Lol? She had a terrible and horrible childhood upbringing which obviously led her to rely on drugs to numb everything that ever went on in her life. Sure it might’ve been HER decision to end up like this on drugs instead of get something good out of it but still don’t bash anyone for ending up like this when they have been traumatized, basically trafficked, abused, abandoned, and struggling their entire life. She is hurt, and as much as she tried to get better, the only thing that sadly helps most broken people is drugs.
Andrew Link I think that’s why people feel sorry for her
mitch jonas hell yeah! I have no sympathy for someone who sits under highway shooting up crack.
I pray you get your daughter back and overcome this addiction that is weighing you down. You deserve LIGHT and you are a beautiful woman inside and out!!!
Hi there? Hope you’re fine and staying safe?
So sad and the sense of hopelessness in her eyes and voice is crushing. How do we do this to each other, its insane.
Parents when your child tells you
That another parent or a family member is molesting them..please believe on them. Do not ignore them.
This is one of the consequences for a lot kids out there because of the sexual abuse.
They know and believe them, but deny it and refuse to take responsibility for it. That's all it is.
Especially not helpful when the very people that I report this type of abuse to don't listen to the child. DFS, CAC and court appointed guardians are complicit also!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Yeah because alot of them call their kids liars
Exactly, what child lies about something so serious? Kids don't just come up with that shit in their head. I know children lie a lot but when it comes to serious matters like this, I highly doubt a child would make that up. Especially the young ones who shouldn't even know what sex is.
I’m disgusted that nobody has helped her in life. Everyone has failed her. Hopefully the interviewer didn’t fail her but not providing her with some sort of information on how to get herself clean and off the streets.
Ain't that simple
stacy youst to provide her with information?
stfuhannah to get off the street. You could say “jUsT dOnT dO It”, but that does jackshit.
Sonja Jerome obviously it’s not that simple but offering her resources or information would at least guide her in the right direction, if she is in fact ready to become sober.
She already knows how to fix it. Chooses not to. She has choices.
This channel has made me more appreciative in life.
This absolutely ripped my heart out!
“I had a fucked up childhood” you see the pain buried deep down within her when she says that. I pray she finds a support system and finds the strength to get clean and sober. She needs lots of therapy and love 😭❤️
Sadly, I think she's too far gone. I'm in no way trying to criticize her. I just think some people are not capable of getting past their circumstances. It's all she's ever known. To try and overcome everything that got her where she is today would be extremely difficult! Not saying it's not possible, but I think very few would be able to overcome it. It's incredibly heartbreaking. JMO
@@markaburns4436 Only because she is on the street with no support...
This is crushing to watch. She thinks no one cares. I care.
:(
I care too❤❤
Same
@Booger Balls dude, you are part of the problem, part of the rotting mentality.
@Booger Balls pain exists in all races. Having known many white people who have committed suicide, I can say pain and depressing exists in all races.
I pray this woman gets help, you deserve the world and I hope your world gets better
I really hope things work out for her. I’m glad Mark is going to try to help. Heartbreaking.
I can't recall seeing a sadder interview with such a damaged person. So immensely sad
She really needs help.
I think the first thing is to address her nutritional and health needs:
1) a safe sleeping environment
2) optimal hydration
3) increase healthy vegetables and protein
4) healthy exercise and movement
5) safe meditation (the wrong type can bring up the PTSD)
Getting healthy will:
1) help her feel better
2) help her brain work better
3) make it a little easier to get off the drugs
AML Films also has some very disturbing heartbreaking interviews.
@@annetteyoutube742 no shit...u think if she could get those things she wouldnt? Jesus...
@@annetteyoutube742 healthy vegetables a priority lmao
You can’t be a child and be a ‘prostitute’ - you are being sexually exploited by a pimp, it’s not a decision! People need to realise it wasn’t her choice, she was groomed and exploited and this is the end result
I hope you are blessed with peace and surrounded with alot of love. You deserve to live the rest of your life happy and in peace.
She's so strong for not running tears while telling her story
If a child says they are being abused or touched, BELIEVE THEM, they may not be old enough to understand or know why it’s going on but they trust you to make the right decision and HELP them.
Hi there? Hope you’re fine and staying safe??
This is what people call "living Hell".
more like purgatory
@@lesleybrown1583 THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORDS, ppls don't get it bc just think ppls are getting beaten and raped right now and any soul in Hell would do anything to trade places with them, ppls won't appreciate life until it's to late...pls have a GREAT day and a AMAZING LIFE MY FRIEND AND MERRY CHRISTMAS 😇

@K Maxx do you think she had choices?
@@rosebailey7671 no, definitely hell lmao
the poor lady looked exhausted, I hope and pray she gets a break from this nightmare. I really hope the US government watches these videos, they will learn a huge amount. Mark, you should be given some sort of award for the work you do. none of it was staged. it's a real eye-opener. I wish someone like you would do this in the UK.
know that you made me smile and I would think you've created many in others. keep the hope and love
