That's what I was thinking too, poor baby must've tried but wasn't able to do much 😔

She probably had a lot of problems after that Like she was probably terrified of men after that, ptsd can happen to dogs and its so sad knowing thats probably what happened

🥺😩 🐶♥️🙏🏼

🥺 I felt so bad for Penny too!! She had to watch her owner die

this made me cry

It really made me cry

I know, that was heart wrenching 😫

Ikr I had to pause the video for a few minutes to cry

That hit me hard...

I started crying when she said that :(

Hey, I know this is a pretty old comment at this point, but one of my classmates was also murdered during our senior year 2021, and I just wanted to empathize with the feeling, it's quite devastating and not a day goes by that I don't wonder how she'd be doing now. I hope the people in your small town were able to move past this without forgetting April

I’m so sorry you went through that that must have been terrifying

That's insane. But I like that added note at the end, they're happy together now and reunited. No one can hurt either of them.

Thank you for sharing this! I'm so sorry for the loss your community suffered. I appreciate you sharing a real life point of view from someone close to April. And thank you for sharing the update bc that's not something we get a lot, present day updates to less recent crimes! What April and Penny had to go thru hurts my heart, but it helps to know that they're back together again 🥹😢 so again, thank you and I'm sorry for the loss you and your community endured!

@@sarahniwho was it

i was just thinking the same!!!

Another scary thing is that 'it' had ran in the family. Father was a sex offender too, right?

I love this lady lol

This is both hilarious and infuriating that she even has to

tell that lady i love her

I know and the sad reality is that drug dealers get a much higher sentence than sex offenders, I’d rather live next door to a dealer then a sex offender. I think they get released on good behaviour whuch is disgusting but mainly because the prisons are sooooo full.

That's probably the worst part because if he's a repeat offender he's probably already thought about or done something to the boy. :/

@@mayaroseakennasferu5814 yea it’s disapproving that there’s no law or legal obligation to tell partners that you are a sex offender , I think. And then to live in the home with one with a child. 💔💔

Sex offenders will do it again and again

I'm crying

@@winter5988 yes it did, the man clearly had the intention to rape her but for some reason didn't- don't you think that maybe the dog had something to do with that? Whether it was physically protecting her owner or making noise so he didn't feel safe enough to do it then and there?

That would’ve been useless. Should’ve called 911. But yeah he was just a kid, probably wasn’t thinking.

even if she called him she probably wouldn't have made it back home since the murderer was running after her and he probably had caught up

People get robbed while they are on the phone all the time. If you're talking on the phone, you aren't as alert to your surroundings. Same w/ taking a video, if the perpetrator doesn't know you're doing it: Here's a video of the guy who is going to kill me in a few mins. You won't actually see him do it, b/c I'll drop the phone about 45 seconds before he kills me, at the point where he pins my hands to the ground behind my head. But rest assured, it'll be him. Might help catch the guy, won't help anyone stay alive.

well it sounds as though she didn't send anymore texts after that one, so he could have texted and called her but she didn't reply since she hadn't replied to her mums texts and calls either

Maybe he didn’t see it until much later?

same!! i don’t care how well i think i knew them, theyd be dead to me

True. Call me evil or whatever, but I didn’t conjure your existence just to take someone else’s life away.

Exactly, being 'family' doesn't mean you stick with horrible people.

Amen to that. I have children too. As much as I love them I would never excuse this sort of behaviour.

fr. no matter if son, brother, father, they'd be dead to me the moment they're revealed to be guilty.

I agree a thousand times! I encountered a situation on a train a few years ago. I am a mother of 5 and I would hope someone would look out for one of my kids in a tough situation. There was a young girl, maybe 14, sitting a few seats away from me. Nearby there was an obviously grown man who kept talking to her, he had even moved from his seat to hover by her. We were the only people in that car. I watched her body language for a few minutes and realized she was incredibly uncomfortable. I know when I was that you I wasn't really able to speak up for myself. Anyway, after him telling her she smelled nice 🤮 and asking what perfume she was wearing I spoke up. I asked him why he was harassing a little girl when she obviously wasn't enjoying his attention. He immediately got defensive. He actually threatened to have his girlfriend kick my ass when we got to his stop. I asked him if his girlfriend minded him preying on little girls? I told him he was welcome to bring it on. Eventually he got off. The girl didn't say much and, honestly, I imagine she was just really uncomfortable. My daughter (23 years old) and her boyfriend had to pull over late at night not too long ago and help a woman getting beat by a man on the side of the road. I absolutely refuse to live my life doing nothing if I am able to help.

@@bbjjbb61 that's a really lovely story. I'm sure the girl was really grateful afterwards but didnt know how to say it

i saw a TikTok were this guy noticed a girl being harassed by an older male, so the TikToker went over to her and acted like they knew “aunty Jen” but “aunty Jen” wasn’t real, it was an excuse to take the girl privately far away from the disturbing old man

I agree! I recently came across a very young mother with a baby being yelled at and screamed at, in public with no else around but me though, by who I can only assume is/was a partner of hers. She was tiny and he was so tall and also built quite large, so fir this I worried he would easily be able to harm her if he wanted to. I kept my distance but watched to feel out the situation for a couple of minutes, while he proceeded to yell at her and talk down to her so badly. I finally built up the courage to walk up to them. I intentionally came from his back side and facing her. I probably looked like a lunatic, but I was locking eyes with her and winking sooooo much and just hoping that she would catch on. I then proceeded to pretend to know her and I was like 'hey girl!!!" and walked right up to her and hugged her and whispered in her ear "If you're safe I will leave but if you're in danger squeeze me right now." She said "I'm ok girl! It was sooo good to see you again!" I did walk away, and I hope to goodness that she and the child are ok, but I would have not been able to sleep that night had I not at least tried to make sure she was ok. Had she needed/wanted help, I am so glad that I did that, but I didn't want to force her or make the situation worse for her.

im 14 and when my mom was mentally abusing me in public i was darting my eyes, scared of her returning, crying, my fingers numb and red because she wouldnt let me in the car, etc. nobody even batted an eye

it's because there were people on the trail at the time of the murder.

This should be taught to everyone not just men 🤨 everytime a man is raped it gets covered as "wife forces husband to have sex with a butcher knife" never just as "wife rapes husband" what we need is equality

It's just a shame that the idea of teaching young men not to abuse women is even a thought. It seems like that should be common sense, clearly it's not to some.

Agreed. I think we also need male curfews like they had in Brazil so women can actually feel safer about. We need something tough. I am fed up with feeling I will be attacked every single time I walk to the station or cycle.

@@crash9275 True, but it is mostly males with sexual violent fantasies and control over the woman

Yeah! It happens way to often in modern-day-time and nothing is really being done about it. I never really hear about cases like this too which makes it worse. :(

Sadly, that's an easy prediction

I mean if her clothes were in the state they were described as being in, it's not really that surprising. Context clues. Its not like she was fully clothed and they were like "oh gee, it was rejected sexual advances" I agree that it's gross that this kind of thing happens so often (to both men AND women) but it's literally not a huge shock that they were able to predict a rejected sexual advance by her shorts/underwear pulled down and her shirt ripped open.

Some men are so fucking weak they KILL over being rejected. And they said Women are the weaker sex, lmao right,

Ikr :(

penny also passed away? :(

There is no legal precedent for telling someone your sex offender status. The mother might not have been told/ known. I doubt she would have lived with them if she'd known, given her willingness to testify against him in court.

As a grown woman it still freaks me out a bit when men get touchy and pushy with me when I say no, I cannot imagine how scared I would have been at 14! Poor girl, may she rest in peace 🕊

i think a better slogan that "no means no" is "yes means yes" by this i mean if someone says nothing its not a yes, if someone says no its not a yes, if someone says anything that's not a yes, its a no. i hope this makes sense and i, as a man who hasn't experienced any @buse, am so proud of any of you that have been brave enough to share your stories and if you dont feel like you can speak out, that is ok, what happened to you was not and it is *never* your fault. hope you all have a good day

I mean I could have gotten rid of the bike because he went back and rode it directly after the murder. Enough crime shows on tv show forensic evidence as a thing that even if the bike wasn't there at the time, he may have been worried about something transferring off his clothing onto it.

Thank you!!! I asked myself the exact same questions but didn't want to be the one questioning the verdict. I really hope they have the right guy but I have my doubts. There are too many inconsistencies and question marks

public execution is ok sometimes :)

Totally agree!!! There’s no reason a repeat offender should be walking around free!!!🤬🤬

repeat offenders should be either locked away in extreme isolation or executed.

Wasn’t it the father that was a repeat sex offender? It was the son that killed her. But yes either way neither of them should be allowed to just live their lives.

Aunt? Lol she’s younger than me

@@kadeelacayo4806 anyone at pretty much any age can be an auntie/uncle

She is an Aunty. She has a nephew. He calls he auntie Ellie, he was in a video before.

Probably but honestly surprised he didn't just kill the dog too, especially if it was trying to attack him, since he had no issue killing a whole ass human being.

@@cf8321 well dogs are smaller than humans and have pointy teeth. doing so would be doable after the girl already died or "went down", but dealing with both would be hard. I'm gonna bet the dog barked too (mine does for way less important stuff and this one seemed to be aware of something srsly bad happening to its owner), which would be a major cause for worry for the killer in a public place like that. He already had luck that the dog probably did not bite him (even through biking clothes, he'd probably get injured, right? those police dog training clothes look waaay thicker)

@@cf8321 i mean considering what he did to her he probably values the life of a dog more than a young girl

Actually, rare is the dog that is willing to take on a creature bigger than them. All dogs may be capable of biting but it's purely defense only when no other option is available. They'll bite then run usually. Even when you get a dog bred for defense from a long line, only a 1 or a couple from the little will come out with the fortitude to do such and then they need training to boot most of the time. However, dogs are very loyal. Whether or not Penny tried to defend, we'll never know but regardless, she stayed close enough for her to be found and that is still huge. She was certainly affected by the encounter and a hero for trying.

Really late reply, but sorry for 95% of most dogs will immediately run if your life is in danger, they'll bark and show aggression to try and scare them off, however when push comes to shove, unless the dog is taught to defend its owner, they will run.

We do live in fear of men, that is the issue.

See, the reason I’ll give her appreciation is because there’s COUNTLESS amounts of cases in which the killer’s partner defends them.

@@tokofukawa4654 !!! that’s why i respect her so much. i’m really glad she didn’t defend james and she told the truth.

Plus it's the father of her child and she probably lost all support from his family the moment she opened her mouth!! I think she is pretty amazing and it seems like her statements really helped in this case.

I'm so glad she spoke the truth and didn't lie in court, she did the right thing! I'm sure it wasn't easy and must have been tough bc that's the father of your child.

@crema de la soda there have been some cases where some partners still chose to support their criminal partners, and would lie and follow through despite having children.

That’s what I was thinking too and that just breaks my heart even more that poor dog saw and experienced so many horrible things.

Thats great, but for anyone wandering, rapists and murders dont tend to follow rules, they know what they do is wrong and dont care, so to actually really prevent assaults on lone people, dont go out alone, always tell people your route and when you'll arrive and if you think you nearly get kidnapped, scream to high heavens or phone to police immediately or share your location immediately or send an sos on your phone immediately, dont continue walking and text someone who might not see the text for hours and dont go out alone without protection

Honestly I live in a small town (not as small as this one, it’s about 20k) and no one locks their doors, especially in my area. We are deep in the mountains so not many people are around, and if they are we definitely hear about it lol.

Shes much more respectful of the victims for sure, saw someone in the comments say that el is biased like no shit one got killed and the other did it, she should be biased

I also like how she really puts into perspective the difficulty of building a strong case. Commentators on social media like to pretend they know who's guilty and "burn them at the sake" but we have due process for a reason. to make sure the innocent go free and the guilty don't get away on technicalities.

You have only said one supportive thing about the victim which is "the little angel who shouldnt have gone through what she went through" only as a defense for yourself after I called you out. Your comment mocking women which I quoted above was mentioned before your words about the victim, and so were your "not all men" comments. It shows where your priorities are when it takes you that long to defend the victim but in the same sentence you deflect from the real death of a real girl to reiterate your views of "and yes all men are not rapist just like how all women are not the victim. Men can be victims and women can be rapists." Ziyan, CHECK YOURSELF.

Me too. This is the first of eleanor’s vids that made me a bit emotional. Maybe because I hike with my dog and I can’t imagine my dog having to see something like that.

Yesh me too. Everytime an animal is mention in this videos i inmediatly feel so bad for them.

Animals are the best least he found help for his owner

I'm 12 and have done that but I was walking not running, not paying attention at all just walking around the apartment complex next to my house, I'm lucky nothing happened.

I’ve done that too, but I was usually in very public places with lots of traffic. If I wasn’t, I usually had my dog with me, so there were totally precautions.

@@rachelhansen2417 this case shows that dogs aren’t always a big enough precaution, please stay safe

I still do. I actually feel more safe running in the dark away from the streetlights where no one can see me. I'm sort of paranoid about things like this but somehow doing this doesn't scare me. Then again, I don't live in the states so maybe that's why.

I remember when I was 16, a man who had parked his car on the side of the road stopped me when I was in the middle of my run, started talking to me and asked if I needed a ride somewhere... it was dark, because in winter days are really short where I live and I had strayed from the main road... but I managed to turn away and just ran far away from him. I learned my lesson that day😅

Good that she did the right thing instead of protecting him, must have been so hard to get to terms with.

Especially with a small child

RIP in the chat

Well it’s his father that is the sex offender not him @25:41

@@AllureALERT she was living with the father aswell, so either way she was living with a sex offender

Exactly! One of the many reasons I like Eleanor's content

This actually just made me tear up. I never thought about it like this. Really does the victims Justice

It's humanizing. It reminds that they gave the world more than just a tragic death story.

@H Hawthorne Absolutely! It is sad that such horrific things happen in this world & we have to expose our children to it. However we have to teach them to be safe as early & as often as possible. They need to know to stay away from strangers no matter what they offer or promise. How to scream, yell,run away & get peoples attention if they are in trouble. How to call 911, thier address& phone number as soon as they can learn it. To tell an adult if someone is hurting or touching you, even if they threaten you. It's so important to educate children to be safe & be prepared in bad situations. We had a "password" that would change frequently when mine was little. If someone wants you to go with them but they don't know the password then you don't go! Nor do you listen to that person. Even if you know them or have seen them with me before. Its scary to think about and hard to do but it is so worth it. I would much rather be safe then sorry.

Thats what i love about her, Danelle Hallan and Kendall Rae. They humanize them and it makes me feel like i’ve met someone like them before or would love to. :,)

I find the entitlement disgusting, but not surprising. I’ve seen this mindset too often to still be surprised

Narcissists and psychopaths are like 3yrs old.... Except they are very evil 3yrolds in an adult body, a dangerous combination!

Dogs are too pure for this world 💔

Rightttt

We really don't deserve them. Made me tear up 😢 They are so loyal and loving. I am so glad he didn't kill Penny too, so she was able to try to get her help.

Right! That part made me tear up :( imagining how panicked the dog was and how they just layed next to her and cried 😭

I love both your comment and your username

You are weak

@@buckets1623 Okay?? It’s called sympathy.

@@awolace1577 dont listen to her. Shes putting this reply on every comment that said this was sad. Obviously shes the weak one if she has nothing better to do in life than put others down. That is whats actually weak!

@@buckets1623 Says the one with her cat as the pfp lmao

@@akatsukifangirl8894 Cats a top tier.

i don’t know i think turning in your boyfriend who murdered a 14 year old girl is the bare minimum

@@katielynn4438 the whole situation probably impacted her very badly too. I’m proud that she did that & hope that she is able to heal

@@katielynn4438 women stand by their disgusting partners like this all the time.

@@katielynn4438 you'd be surprised how many women stick by their man, despite overwhelming evidence and they chose to not speak up.

Yes I honestly had to stop watching for a while, just thinking about how confused and upset penny must have been breaks my heart.

Yesss it just hits different when a animal is in the case 😭🥺

Same!!! We don't deserve dogs

Literally just did

My heart broke into a million pieces.

Hey I've found you here as well

@@harperstewart5010 ahahahhhaah yeh I love true crime and I probably would've commented more on true crime videos if I knew what to say

i doubt she was including you in that statement lmaooo

@sip Are you confused? OP was saying they are mad the murderer's mom still supported him even after he killed a child.

No wonder her son was like this, she has probably taught him that he's the best most important person and that he's entitled to everything and deserves every woman, yikes.

@@teijaflink2226 or you can still love someone despite their issues she’s his mom so she has an unconditional love for him even if they don’t want to

@@kaitlincoulter1811 I don't think I could love my son if he turned out to be a cold blooded murderer.

I was thinking about that. I think penny stop him from assaulting April.

This is why I walk with all three of my dogs. My wolf hybrid is too timid to defend anyone but the Aussie and the husky will. I still tell someone where I am going and how long i will be gone.

I know, this one made me cry.

I believe that dog prevented the SA from happening

@@bethcarr5749 I thought the same! Penny certainly stopped the sexual assault. So sad 😞

Loyalty. He loved her. She was his best friend.

You could tell she loved her soo much! 💜

bro i wanna cry i feel so bad for the doggy , must be hard living without ur bestfriend and owner.. i wonder if hes confused:(
