A stolen lunch was the inciting incident in today’s case, as a violently angry young man kills a co-worker in a frenzied attack over the smallest of issues - and tells the court in his trial it could have been anyone, “even a 4-year old kid…”

So, the theory that one reason he committed this crime with the intent to stay in the United States is valid. I work security and I can't tell you how many of the homeless came into the store I was stationed at and stole items on purpose because it meant 3 hots and a cot; mind you, that meant stealing $700 worth of items in order for it to be a felony & the store could press charges. Some others would steal simply to get a night in jail and a hot meal. It's awful to see people having to resort to that. It's not an excuse by any means to commit murder but it could have been a secondary motive.

@annekristiina7503 2 ай бұрын

Yes, I agree. This is a motive most normal people can't even think of. In my European country it has happened a couple of times an immigrant that has been denied their stay has taken to violence and random murder or rape to get sentenced. Our prisons are like 5-star hotels in their home lands.

My fiance worked security at a hospital and when I worked as a cab driver, I would hear stories about the place from some of the workers who took cabs back and forth from there- and homeless people would also beg for a stay in the psych ward of this hospital. There was a young guy (maybe 19-22) who was discharged from that psych ward and begged them not to make him leave. He told them he was homeless and didn't have anywhere to go. Mond you this happened in the dead of winter. Anyway, they put him out in the parking lot and he sl**hed his wrists, just to get a bed back in the hospital.

My husband told me that when he was in high school at one of his jobs many of his coworkers complained that someone stole their lunches from the refrigerator and no one could figure out who it was. Weeks went by and everyday someone’s lunch would be taken. A few coworkers decided to teach the person a lesson in hopes to also find out who was taking their food. One of those coworkers made a nice fat burrito and left it in the fridge and it was stolen. Inside the burrito was a dead rat and after that day, lunches were no longer stolen. Unfortunately no one knew who was the thief, but they were glad it finally stopped.

I think he asked for the longest sentence to avoid deportation as long as possible Edit: my reasoning was everything in this case down to what he told the judge was a result of possible deportation. He stated to the judge “I promise, your honor, I won’t kill someone again,” while at his hearing after asking for longest possible sentence. I personally feel like he killed for the pure purpose of staying in the country even if it meant prison. He got what he wanted in the end and it came at the cost of an innocent’s life.

I don’t think murder is OK, but also- DON’T STEAL PEOPLE’S FOOD. For some people, it could be the only meal they had that day. Edit: So some people can’t read or lack context clues. I never said that it was OK to murder someone over food. I clearly said murder was not OK, and I also made an unrelated statement to this case about how we shouldn’t steal another person’s meal. And just because you’re hungry, it does not make it OK to steal another person’s food. You don’t know their situation. They are not Walmart. Whilst Walmart will probably survive if a hungry person steals stuff from the shelves, a human being who doesn’t resort to stealing may not be able to have another meal to eat that day. Food for thought.

I'm a mother, who's 20 year old son passed away suddenly, there are no words. As a parent of a deceased child, there are simply no words to accurately describe to you how it feels, it's, quite literally indescribable. And parents who haven't lost a child can't imagine what it's like because the human mind isn't capable of imagining something so incomprehensible. Before my son died, my friends son had a car accident,, he was ok, I said to my friend "can you imagine.....?" At my son's wake, I reminded my friend of that conversation and told her "you can't imagine, not even close" So please, anyone reading this, if you haven't lost a child but know someone who has, please don't say "I know how you feel" or "I can imagine." Instead, offer a coffee, a shoulder and an ear, followed by a hug. Many Blessings from Australia 🌹🌹

Everything about your uncle’s situation is sad. First the fact that at 18yo they sentenced him to 30 years for a non violent crime. There are child predators & even people that have unalived their victims (or tried & came really close) that get WAY less than 30 years! Your uncle didn’t know anything about being an adult in the real world. I’m 45, thinking about how much the world, technology, EVERYTHING has changed since I was 15, some things are still tricky to get the hang of & I’ve been out here to learn as the transitions happen. Can you imagine the world being one way when you get locked up then you come out & you don’t recognize anything? Overwhelming would be an understatement. I don’t understand the thought process behind the punishment? Here’s a kid stealing money so to fix it we’re going to lock him up for 3 decades where he doesn’t have much hope of learning ti be a positive, contributing member of society, matter of fact he’s pretty much guaranteed to fail… IF he survives until his release date. It will be nearly impossible for him to find employment to support himself between no job skills, no job experience & nobody wanting to hire someone that’s spent more of their life in prison than out. He’s probably wrecked mentally & emotionally, having seen/been thru stuff most of us couldn’t imagine. Knowing all of this the prison just sets them free to figure it out on their own. Then wonder why they end up right back in prison. Smh I take that back, they probably don’t wonder or care, prisons are just cash cows making a profit off everyone locked up. Your uncle’s story is sad & frustrating. Unfortunately it’s also way more common than it should be.

Don’t kill my buzz sir, I’m having the time of my life shopping between museum visits.

One of your American viewers here and before you even got to the end, it occurred to me that maybe he wanted to be in jail to be cared for in some way. Not the kind of insanity that reduces culpability but it does sound like he was super emotionally and mentally distressed, plus the prospect of being deported to terrible circumstances. It messes with people to be really isolated, too, and it sounds like he didn't have anyone here or to go home to. Feel bad for the way he seems to have been let down so many times. No excuse for random violence, though.

God bless the USA…in a sarcastic tone. I am a physician who lost insurance coverage when my employer found out I needed a double mastectomy. There are laws where we can purchase the insurance for 18 months after leaving an employer. BUT the employer doesn’t contribute so I paid $1200 a month for the whole 18 months. Of course I ended up having complications with reconstruction (silicone allergy) and had a total of 6 breast surgeries. I owe thousands now in medical bills and am currently uninsured (we have Medicaid for those below a certain income) which none of my providers take and Im healed interviewing for a position as a hospitalist. I am a Family Medicine Physician however due to our current healthcare model (15 minute visits including nurse assessment for existing patients) Primary Care Physicians are constantly overburdened and buried in paperwork.

Same! I also live in Fairfax County and was not expecting to hear the county from Eleanor! I don’t remember hearing about this incident on the local news, but I’m an elementary teacher in the public schools, so I know I was focused on the sheer bonkers-ness that was trying to teach 8-year-olds in-person and online at the same time that spring. It was quite eerie to know (and have gone to) every location that Eleanor mentioned in this video.

I've had that happen before with that chapter videos I could have sworn I saw the exact same case he uploaded a year or two ago. But it said it was recent. So I went back searching for the video and suspiciously couldn't find it. I swear it was a sneaky re-upload but couldn't find any comments saying the same thing. I know I'm right though because there was a line in the story that I will never forget. The victims 3-4 year old daughter was left alone with the mothers body for days and had blood on her face and hands from attempting to nurse.
