I sent a few bucks, but US should really get public health care finally. I thought there are at least some nonprofit or maybe state organizations that help with med bills to victims of crimes, but apparently no and now donors from around world and US are paying for US health system failures to help the brave Thad. If any US citizen sees this, imagine: I am from eastern europe, we earn like peanuts compared to you and even we have public health care! And now I am sending money to US to help a victim like Thad to pay med bills that are usually crazily inflated by the health providers or declined to be reimbursed by private insurance? Pretty weird, innit? For a "2nd/3rd world" country citizen to be helping pay med bills of a "1st world" country and "the best country in the world" citizen, heh? 🤦♀️

@@vivelajonnyHe had a choice. When you hear stories like this (Mary Vincent is another survivor who makes you wonder how she could have been kidnapped by a serial killer, SA’d and tortured for hours, her arms were cut off, and assuming she was dead, was thrown off a cliff, naked. She somehow made it up the cliff and onto a highway. The serial killer served five years, was released, and murdered another young girl), the person survives because they are young and possess super-human determination. It isn’t a knock at people who die; I’m 100% certain I would give up. I don’t think it’s divine intervention. That suggests a higher power allowed those who didn’t survive to senselessly succumb to torture and murder. I genuinely believe people like Thad and Mary are wired differently. Their determination to live - and making it happen - cannot be explained. It’s truly incredible.

Omg. This young man is so incredibly strong, much stronger than myself. I've only broken one(serious) bone in my 34 years of life. When I was 15 I broke my leg from a 4- wheeler accident. It was excruciating pain, I actually blacked out from the pain and woke up in the car headed to the hospital. Anyway, I could not imagine having MULTIPLE bones broken, AT THE SAME TIME, with intent. This boy endured more pain than I can even fathom experiencing, and yet he still managed to survive and get away. He is absolutely incredibly strong!! And I hope he lives the best life possible after going thru this nightmare.

He's extremely lucky that he still has his legs. I was a military medic, years ago. Some guys were playing football on an astroturf field, on our base. One guy's boot got stuck in the turf, and dislocated his ankle. One medic turned up, realised he had no pedal pulse, and had to, with help, pop his ankle back into place. If she hadn't have reset it, he would have lost his foot. That is just a dislocation. I cannot imagine the damage done to Thad's blood vessels, with those injuries.

I’m so glad you elected to cover this. I don’t feel there is enough coverage of this case, and what is out there is all the same. There was a man working on a podcast and actually got interviews with both Thad Phillips and the perpetrator, but it eventually fell by the wayside and his podcast went a totally different direction. I would love to read those interviews, though. It’s appalling that the original coroner failed to identify all of those broken bones. By declaring it a drowning of undetermined cause, and by failing to complete a competent autopsy, it placed that “drowning case” at the bottom of the list of investigations - if it even made the list at all. Even with the Steiners being told that the perpetrator was involved, the police weren’t even calling it a murder and didn’t know that the bones were broken. So he was involved in… what? It just makes me feel awful for the Steiner parents and, most of all, for Thad Phillips. That coroner failed everyone in this case.

When I feel too consumed in my own problems and traumas, this really helps me in terms of seeing the strenght, courage and determination to live of these survivors in the most unbelievable and horrific situations. It humbles oneself in a good way, it‘s incredibly inspiring, motivating and empowering. My heart goes out to each and every one of these warriors and also all of the victims of such heinous crimes.
