Gilbert police let Lori Vallow and her brother walk for shooting Charles Vallow when the evidence was pretty damn obvious. What kind of crimes Do they investigate?
The answer why they aren't taking this serious is because the suspects are "affluent" i wouldn't be surprised if the cheif of police own son is involved!!!!
Excellent information. Thank you for all you are doing at AZ Republic. Emma, you asked all the questions that I was asking. Thanks for your Momcast news channel. 🙏 ❤
Can I just say that I am appalled at the kids who hang out at Target in Queen Creek. Your children are acting like little thugs and this is a direct reflection of the community, parents, schools and police! Please STOP the crazy antics of the kids in your community! I was visiting my daughter this past weekend, I went to Target to shop. There was at least 40 teens there looking to intimidate shoppers, going through the store wreaking havoc and the employees said they can’t do anything about it? Really target.. because I used to be a security officer for the company and now I’m a school social worker trying to prevent this despicable behavior so these feral kids don’t scare me, but I am scared for your community! What I witnessed was nuts and before everyone starts pointing fingers at everyone else, its starts with you!
The parents and community should have stepped up more than 2 years ago. The adults instead film it and do absolutely nothing. It wouldn’t happen in the country as the adults would come out of every home and stomp some heads in the ground. The fact the community of adults have allowed this to go on is absolutely criminal on their behalf. A bunch of candy pansy arse adults scared of some kids not even using weapons.
We will eventually find out that some of the parents are guilty of felony charges for hiding and covering up what their kids have done or are involved in! My guess some of these parents will come as a shock to us! If they were smart they would get ahead of this. Just because the kids are juveniles isn’t necessarily going to save them from being charged as adults! As for Preston’s murders, they should all be charged as adults! The fact that they are from “affluent” families should mean they should serve a lot of time! Prove to the communities that rich kids in these communities are going to time spend behind bars. It’s example time! Squash the “white privileged” card and serve just justice for these victims!
If there’s “gang” activity or any grouping of people immediately stand up a task force and flood social media, tv, etc. with ads about them and that information/reporting is needed from anyone that has information. Once word gets out that police is aware they will likely disband or move their attacks. This is awful and parents hiding their kids that are involved in the attacks should be charged too
The adults of the area should be ashamed of themselves for not stopping it and stepping up to the parents to get their children under control. The fact the kids aren’t being held accountable by the community themselves is absolutely disgusting. Preston Lord died because of the lack of community support to get their neighborhood in control & to do crime watches in their communities. These parents should also be charged of these little goons & then the adults filming these videos, instead of stopping it & reporting it. They should also be arrested and charged for not stepping up and protecting these kids.
Excellent summary of the problems you’ve had with these young thugs in your area. I don’t live in AZ and just heard of Preston’s murder today in a recommended video on YT. It’s so frightening and outrageous. Thank you for your coverage. I will be following this.
That boy's parents should higher a top-notch lawyer and Sue every one of those affluent families for that young man's death. They should sue every one of them because it is the parents fault not to bring their children under control knowing that this was being done so the parents are responsible
The mom sounds to be part of the problem, no accountability. Honestly, no normal person wants their child to be involved in something like this. As horrifying as it is, if an investigator tells me he has a video of my child or my child’s friends committing a crime, I would ask to see it so I am able to make a valid determination whether or not my child was involved. This mom sounds like she is burying her head in the sand. Kids aren’t dumb, if they know their parents will always believe them, why stop. Losers went out two weeks later and got in trouble again. Since the kid sounds like a minor, I hope the prosecutors build a case to hold the parents responsible too.
Lack of reporting from the kids being attacked. Their parents didn’t allow them to file a report. Can’t blame the cops if they aren’t being made aware of the attacks or given the videos that adults are taking. The parents all need to be charged.
Yep, or intimidating them. Preston Lord was not the first person they assaulted in this way. He's just the first to die. The DA failed to press charges.
Maybe not direct payments, but they contribute to police funds, etc. in California where I live, the highway patrol had something called the 11-99 Foundation. This foundation provided financial support to Officer families. If you were a big money donor you received a license plate frame with the words “11-99 Foundation Member.” He was stopped many times and always got off with a warning. He used to brag that it was well worth the donation dollars. I think they shut that down due to the publicity
Horrible police department. They were all set to let this go. The American obsession with affluence and the veneration law enforcement affords these people is deranged. As the lady further down in this comments column remarks: They would have shut down any black or hispanic perpetrators immediately. They'd be in jail, where they belong.
Absolutely…the rich and influential in a community always get a pass, especially in small communities like Gilbert. America remains a very corrupt country and the majority of corruption seems to occur when the rich are implicated in a crime. I see it in my community as well. People need to stand up and pressure local governments and the police departments to treat people equally and to do the right thing. Letters written to local city councils, the press, police departments, etc get more attention
This is horrible! It’s like these kids have no conscience??!!! Don’t they understand good vs bad?? I don’t understand why the police couldn’t investigate and realize these are juvenile criminals and get them help?! It’s atrocious that this is happening.
Wealthy Gilbert residents are paying off the Gilbert PD to protect their Goons kids . The news comes out saying they can’t figure out who the Gilbert goons are. Give me a break !!!
The reason is rich privilege! Lord's parents need to sue police department. If it wasn't for the press collecting prior innocedants or news coverage, these wanna be thugs wouldn't of been charged
Just for peace of mind for all... we need to give the DA and police departments some time to make their case(s) so the strongest charges they want to place can stick. The burden of proof lies on the plaintiff's, not the defendant' s. I truly believe justice will prevail here. Thanks to the community for standing up in all of this!
Why was this not addressed earlier? You don't go from a normal kid, to a whole gang of very violent kids overnight. They should have been harshly dealt with on day one. Clearly everyone involved needs life in prison & the families of the kids need to have every asset/dollar to their name seized + a few decades in jail. Nip it in the bud
This blaming the parents/family narrative is getting sick! You can’t blame EVERY parent for this! Taylor comes from a loving and good home they’re a close knit family.
@@Alexxis_Sherman "You can’t blame EVERY parent for this!" Of course you can. Minors are under the complete control of their parent. While they are minors, the parents are 100% responsible because they have 100% control & have had that control since day 1 If you create a monster, I expect you to deal with it, not make it my problem.
@@Alexxis_Sherman Good for what? Being turned into mulch? Might be prudent to process the entire family. A factory producing product that poor needs to be shuttered
Hmm, no. Just look up the history of the sons of Sadam Hussein. One of them made a habit of looking for wedding receptions, kidnapping the bride assaulting her and dumping her. No consequences.
I don’t live in Gilbert but if I did I would write a letter every week to the city council raising the issue of the apparent lack of police response. It is the only way that justice will be done. I would continue even after any arrests were made.
Gilbert advertises what a great small town feel it has. Good schools, safe parks and community involvement! lol the only truth is the Community involvement….thank God for that!
Actually the community are cowards and wouldn’t even allow their own children to report the attacks on them. This isn’t the cops fault, this is the victims parents not allowing them to even speak up.
Just cause they rich doesn't mean ther good families we all no rich brats get away with murder treat people like trash all over the world. They won't see a day in jail
Go to the parents of the goons houses and express your second ammendment right and right to open carry and request a polite discussion to resolve the issues :)
"The mormon part"? What the hell is that supposed to mean? These are spoiled rich kids, with little or no parental supervision. "mormon" has nothing to do with it!
Sue the city, they are restricting the police. I'd would ask all police to resign because you are not protected. Mesa LEO s it will get better. But resign cause you will be not protected for doing what you swore to do
Connection is really bad, who ever is causing this needs to disconnect to let the show go one. One thing I have a question about is DID PROJECT LILY GET INVOLVED IN VIGILATE ISSUE BC it sure sounded like that when some 17 yr old was accused wasn't involved. If you were involved in the BS, u need to disban and move on bc u have no business being involved in a NO BULLYING non profit, when your involved in bullying a innocent person. Instead of starting nonprofit get to the parents of children early bc at 15 years old, your to late. FRICKEN SHAMEFUL.
I just don't see how Talen Renner's attorney is going to get him out of this ? Got into a fight... killed a kid... I guess I don't know my own strength... is his own words
This is what happens in a world where parents yell at teachers because their kids are failing. Where discipline is seen as abuse. Where filming disrespectful behavior has become something that can be monetized and shown on social media. Where does this all end???… In more deaths just like this one?
Where’s your proof? This is all hearsay. How do we not know this is just a party fight gone wrong? We were all kids once, do you forget that? You are all know it alls quick to judge when you know nothing
THis is not really new, 30+ years ago in highschgool there were groups in every little town who were known for sport fighting a group that lived to fight. they would even travel to other towns n test their skills against similar groups in those towns the fights were mostly random and often kicked off battles between towns where everyone got involved
Good grief there are ALL colors and nationalities across the country. Where do you ppl live under rocks ? It goes on everywhere every day , just like mass shootings daily that NO ONE recognizes, that's also selective , ASK YOURSELF WHY ITS GOTTEN WORSE OVER LAST FEW YEARS.
It’s disgusting to be blaming the parents not ALL of them are neglectful and awful as the Renner family. Stop dragging innocent families names in the mud!
These are extremely depraved attacks. These thugs need to be held responsible.

Those deviants are Mormons too
Very disappointed of the police!
This is where the Vallows are from!? Oh Dammmmmmn

Exactly...and Caucasian. If they had been black or Hispanic, this gang would have even shut down immediately.
Sounds familiar on a national level.

Evil thugs have been getting a pass from parents, friends, school, community, police. Justice for Preston Lord.
Hope the FBI charges & arrests some of the parents (especially the ones who intentionally obstructed justice!) of these creep kids!

Exactly. Apparently, the affluent in the town aren’t addressing inappropriate behaviour by young people. Time to step up!
Typical Gilbert PD. They hide so much; i’ve lived in Gilbert for 14 years. Gilbert seems obsessed with the perception of perfection.
Do ur cops wear cameras?

You might want to pay attention instead of bs, that's NOT exactly true, not all those kids were rich🤦♂️
