It's sentences like that, that make me believe...man...maybe people do just grow apart some times. They seemed like they at least were on the same page when it came to their kid.
and don't forget, the dude was WALKING LATERALLY at a pretty brisk pace too. the level of skill needed to nail that shot on such short notice was crazy.
My favorite part is that, later in his life, when he was interviewed about the incident he was asked two questions that stand out to me: "Do you regret killing Jeff Doucet?" To which he replied: "No." And: "Would you do it again?" To which he replied: "Hell yeah."
Gary actually hit him dead center in the ear like it was a target, and he got a bullseye. drunk and/or sleep deprived, 180-degree turn, guessed where his target is, drag shot, shot without even close to aiming, moving target, target surrounded by people, and this man was still able to hit his target dead in the ear without hurting anyone else. this man pulled off a 1/1,000,000 shot while only having one chance, and he did perfectly. I can't think of another shot in history more impressive than Gary's.
@@HamsterDud Indeed, likely millions of arrows have been shot throughout history, and at least some of those shots had to have been nearly impossible to land.
You daydream about your own kids getting molested/raped so you can get revenge? How about just dreaming that it doesn't happen to begin with? You guys are weird.
@@classmst89 More like what he did was inherently wrong. We have a justice system and rules for a reason. I understand his grief and his actions are understandable, but that doesn't make what he did any less wrong.
you forgot the best part, he hadn't slept in 3 days. that man waited three days without sleep to preform community service. thank you Gary Plauche you absolute fucking legend
I'm calling shenanigans on that ridiculous response. I'm sure he was your typical cop and was afraid that Gary would spend the rest of his life in prison, which I'm thinking most fathers would be OK with.
My mom and dad both worked with Gary. They said he was quiet, friendly, and got along with everyone. This is what happens when kind men are pushed too far.
Tbh more like a 90% chance because Bethesda made 95% hit chance actually be a 100% in v.a.t.s in 3, NV and 4 for some reason. At-least it's been like that for me since I first played fallout 3 in 2009.
I love that Gary and his wife were estranged, and when they interviewed her and asked “what would you have done if you knew what Gary meant to do?” “Give him a ride”
Out fucking standing, I remember watching it on the news the night Gary became a National Hero, and just several years later after becoming a father for the first time I completely understood why Gary did what he did, a little extra tidbit of you guys didn’t know, Gary for quite awhile had been mowing the lawn at his church weekly for free, when he was sentenced to community service the pastor of that church said he do his community service with him, and just immediately signed off that he had completed his community service and I believe his probation officer also signed him off early as well. That is what you call a community who had each others backs!!

I was almost beaten to death in a robbery in 1991 by 2 criminals. My dad tried to bond out 1 of the criminals & the police wouldn't let my dad for some strange reason.
@@JacobJoesph yeah AFTER ABUSING HIM FOR A FULL YEAR. none of you people even bothered to read up on the case, your parents were probably children when it happened.
Its because the cops knew gary well and wanted him to just get his son back and not be hurt anymore. They never expected him to kill the guy, let alone infront of them which, while the judge was excellent could easily have been a murder charge.
he's probobly thinks Gary through his life away for this revenge when his kid needs him the most greatfully the judge was a true American much like Gary and sentenced him to community service
Literally. He mowed the lawn at his church for free, the pastor said Gary could do the community service in that way, and the pastor immediately signed his service as done, and so did the probation officer.
When he neared the end of his life Gary was interviewed one last time after his stroke, and was asked as the final question "Would you do it again" to which he responded with a clear "hell yes".
even better because the interviewer had to censure the answer (and i think he was also just shocked with how quickly he answered) by saying to the camera "Oh yes?"
For those who are curious, there was a documentary that featured his now adult son and his mother going into great detail about the before and aftermath.
“Why, Gary, Why?!?!” Keep in mind brother’s that the cop there was on first name basis already with Gary. He was thinking “my man just threw his life away on a slam dunk case.” He was worried for Gary. Nothing more.
@@telepathickitten4653 appreciate it but I'd prefer to think as myself as pretty baseline, most other dads or mothers (at least hopefully) feel the same way.
@@twinphalanx4465 My youngest is 23 and a 6'5" young man. I'd still give my life for any one of my kids simply because they are my kids. Take care of your family. Make sure they know that you love them. It matters.
And the fact that his friend had possibly just earned himself a life sentence. That cop was good friends (according to the son of gary plauchet) with gary and had known him since jr high. Likely he did NOT want to see his friend go to prison because of what a pedo forced him to do.
The absolute best part, dude never showed an ounce of remorse, no should he have. Before Gary died he was interviewed about it and asked "would you do it again?" Gary: "your damn right I would"
You need to get one of those shirts to Jody Plauche, he's quite vocal in his support of his dad's actions, and is also an advocate for abused children after what he went through. Really stand up guy.
I remember when that happened. At first, I was like, "Did I just see what I think I saw?" Then I thought, "If he goes to trial & if I were on the jury, I'd never convict him in a million years."
@@theRPGmaster yep, people like that sicko get 3 weeks behind bars now, oh but LITERAL KIDS doing wheelies on scooters get 15k fine and 10 years for doing it on a pride flag similar things happened in germany where a child was repeatedly.. done in by 11 arabs for multiple hours.. the judge let all of them go saying "they are stressed from the migration and just needed to blow off some steam", her name is Anne.. she also fined Marie Kaiser 6k for exposing these freaks and she got actual jailtime and not those guys the judge has let this also happen dozens of times, even excused child trafficking once
Ok so, I was born and raised in Louisiana and VIVIDLY remember watching this go down on WBRZ News. Mr. Gary Plauche (PLOH- shay) did what any real father would've done in that same situation.
It still amazes me how Gary just got community service. We live in a time right now where if you murder a murderer you get more time than the murderer would have
theres an interview with the judge from many years later and he said he regrets letting him off because he felt it was bad legal precedence even though it was obviously morally justified
@@MB-ms3ud when you take the emotion out of it. The countries principle is innocent until proven guilty. i dont know anything about the case and i am sure it was bang to rights he did it. if he hadnt been found guilty yet in the eyes of the law and the law allowed a bypass for peaple to take their own justice then innocent peaple may be killed. and before anyone says that wont happen i remember some idiots murdering a peadiatrician becuase they thought it meant he was a peadophile. that said i probably might have done the same thing becuase like everyone else am human and not a machine
Agreed. This story is why when my son started jiu jitsu classes I pulled his instructor to the side to let him know that I have more black belts than he does and a whole room just for my guns. I also told him to look up Gary Plauche. He already knew the story so I think we're good.
@@joaopedrobaggio4475 perverts is not what i would call them, monsters without the concept of consent or age is better. those desires should be kept to fictional characters or growing adults who consent to it, and they can't do either.
@@beacher50_ i don't, and i honestly wonder what is even being said in therapy to give them the basic idea of "don't do that to kids" finally in there head. there case is same as those with the R and ist, no therapy is going to fix there choices.
This man put himself at the chance of life in prison or even death penalty for his son. Every parent needs to be willing to go that far for their kids. Happy Father’s Day y’all
@@WednesdayAddamsMWsame way people get excused due to reasons of insanity, parents like this should get excused due to parental instinct to protect or avenge their child.
Thank goodness it was Texas in the 80s and not a blue city in 2024. A modern DA would make a public apology to the abuser’s family and the alphabet soup community.
Because Gary in that moment possibly ruined his ability to be a proper father for his son, and gave the dude mercy. He is INCREDIBLY lucky that he only got probation from a plea baragin, as most people who get revenge for their child get sent to jail
@@ricedbroccoli Which is exactly why my dad has often said he *wouldn't* do something like this. He loves me and my siblings, but he can't do his job from a jail cell.
Weird how "fuck me" is ok to say but not a certain word for a "child chaser". It's almost like there are people in high places that dont want to be called that, despite being one.
I think children should be aware that child abusers exist so they are more careful around strangers. Hiding terrible things from children only results in them not knowing how to correctly respond to such dangers.
@@DakkaDakka12I totally agree. I don't understand why people try to hide facts from kids. Like even stuff like parents arguing & about to divorce, some people think it's best the kids know nothing, then get blindsided at the last minute with the news. I'm like better to know the facts & be aware of possibilities.
this dude was piss drunk, hadn't slept in 3 days, was wearing sunglasses, had to do a 180* turn, shot from under his arm, at point blank and landed a headshot bro was built different
I needed this video today. I am a fulltime single dad, and about 30 mins ago I was told by my 6 year old daughter (who was the victim of molestation with a weapon) by her ex step father, that she would rather live with her mother. Her mother hasn't done ANYTHING in the past three years to help me or my daughter. No money, no cloths, and hardly gets her ever. I almost lost my cool, and am now bawling my eyes out because I feel like I can't ever do enough to be respected or admired. I am a good father, and I've sacrificed sooooo much to make sure my daughter is safe and well taken care of. Thank you brandon, because this video made my day a little better.
I learned from my friends who adopted two young kids from an abusive situation that small children often transpose the bad thing that happened to the current adults in their life. It's just how the child's mind processes things, and they have no idea it wasn't you who did it. Later in life, she'll figure it out, but in the meantime, all you can do is show her love.
Yeah is wild hearing “why Gary why” as the cops reacted, because they thought Gary Plauche was going to jail for killing this POS instead of being absolved. Good on the Baton Rouge DA!
I'm not sure a jury today would willingly convict him, much less back in 1984, so the DA probably saw the writing and possibly pedo brain matter on the wall, though he might have also agreed with him.
That case was very sad. It seemed that Marianne, after enduring a crappy life of her own, was finally finding her feet. Then to have her daughter taken that way....
That was in an airport... I couldn't understand when it happened, but now a father of an 11 year old son, oh boy ... that protective instinct is very alive ..
It was, he also knew when to be there, not too early to arouse suspicion and not too late to take the shot..... If not all, most of the deputies transporting the duche knew that he would not board that plane alive.
@@Smickster01 Gary didnt get to stay in a prison. He gets a community service at which was signed off immediately by the probation officer and the church pastor because of his service on cutting grass on a church years before his sentence which adds up to him completing the community service as soon as he gets the sentence. So not only that your statement isn't correct, he's still the most badass father in history.
@@diqweed69 he was worried for Gary, because Gary could have got himself killed or thrown to prison by discord mods. And that act had zero meaning, he just did the job of woodchipper guy for free, that's all
I was in the Army with Gary’s nephew. I remember when the video was making the rounds and we were watching it in the barracks. In strolls Plauche and says oh hey that’s my uncle. All of our jaws drop in disbelief. TLDR The Plauches are great
Can we stop and appreciate the fact that not only was Gary able to underhand a 1 second headshot and not hit anyone else, he was able to know what airport the instructor would be landing AND what route in the airport the police would be walking him. Makes me wonder if he had any help.
That underhand hipfire is what scares me. I don't condemn what he did, but how he did it was very risky. There's a great deal of luck in a shot like that, even with for heavily proficient shooter. Thankfully there were no collaterals.
@@CrazyChemistPLit’s actually somewhat easy to get good at hip firing pistols. Practice your angles and make sure to keep your angle of eyesight directly above the angle of fire. Cowboy action shooters do this type of thing for fun. I’m positive he trained doing this for years before he dusted Doucette
@@danikaflorence444 I know. Still there's a huge difference between doing Cowboy Action at a properly setup range and doing something like this in a public airport. So many things could've gone wrong. I'm pretty sure the escorting officer and the cameraman went home with brown pants (no intent to offend either man here, bur the bullet missed them by few inches). I know I would.
@@45Gunner556 Even more of a W is that Jody not only fully supports his dad's actions, but also grew up to be a child outreach specialist who helps other kids who have been SAed get over their trauma.
ive seen the full video of mr Plauche's heroism and ive gotta say 1: the initial impact is way less messy than id personally expect 2: the way that thing reacted to being shot was . . . it was almost artful, the potato sack thump; the bulged, bloodshot eyes; and EMS checking for a pulse as a formality . . . *chef kiss*

Well said indeed
“If it was your son, you’d do it too” Gary’s response to his cop friend saying “Why Gary why??”
That cop though.
"Why, Gary? Why?"
And the Oscar for cop who totally didn't know it was gonna happen goes to...
Its because the cops knew gary well and wanted him to just get his son back and not be hurt anymore.
They never expected him to kill the guy, let alone infront of them which, while the judge was excellent could easily have been a murder charge.
left unsaid: "That's OUR job! WE wanted to ventilate him, dammit!"
@@thatorangeguy3646 oh he's not going to be hurting anymore. and the other guy is not going to be harming anyone either.
he's probobly thinks Gary through his life away for this revenge when his kid needs him the most greatfully the judge was a true American much like Gary and sentenced him to community service
Yup. And best director goes to the cameraman who called Gary and told him the exact time to be at the airport.
Judge: "you get community service" Gary: "already done bro"
For real though he took care of a literal demon.
Literally. He mowed the lawn at his church for free, the pastor said Gary could do the community service in that way, and the pastor immediately signed his service as done, and so did the probation officer.
@@StupidAnon-gn8ih How many hours of community service does someone need to do in advance ? Asking for a friend .

The main difference is that the original was a moving target, which exponentially increases the difficulty of that shot.
Making it all the more incredible that Gary aired him out first try
It really doesn’t especially if you’re looking from the side like he was, Gary was already tracking him before taking the shot
I also think they were closer. I'm also surprised they were not more concerned with the pressure escaping around the cylinder.
gary: i shoot better when my target is moving
When he neared the end of his life Gary was interviewed one last time after his stroke, and was asked as the final question "Would you do it again" to which he responded with a clear "hell yes".
even better because the interviewer had to censure the answer (and i think he was also just shocked with how quickly he answered) by saying to the camera "Oh yes?"
For those who are curious, there was a documentary that featured his now adult son and his mother going into great detail about the before and aftermath.
Is it on youtube?

@@striker1553no, bestie.
“Why, Gary, Why?!?!” Keep in mind brother’s that the cop there was on first name basis already with Gary. He was thinking “my man just threw his life away on a slam dunk case.” He was worried for Gary. Nothing more.
Because his life was thrown away by the ex-monster. As a parent of a little girl, my life is to be thrown away at her discretion. Kids are off limits
@@twinphalanx4465 You sound like a great dad. She's lucky to have you.

Take care of your family. Make sure they know that you love them. It matters.
You know the cops were only mad that they had to fill out that paper work and clean that mess up
And the fact that his friend had possibly just earned himself a life sentence. That cop was good friends (according to the son of gary plauchet) with gary and had known him since jr high. Likely he did NOT want to see his friend go to prison because of what a pedo forced him to do.
The absolute best part, dude never showed an ounce of remorse, no should he have. Before Gary died he was interviewed about it and asked "would you do it again?"
Gary: "your damn right I would"

similar things happened in germany where a child was repeatedly.. done in by 11 arabs for multiple hours.. the judge let all of them go saying "they are stressed from the migration and just needed to blow off some steam", her name is Anne.. she also fined Marie Kaiser 6k for exposing these freaks and she got actual jailtime and not those guys
the judge has let this also happen dozens of times, even excused child trafficking once
@@theRPGmaster i mean, the guy was on his way to jail in police custody, he wasnt free of accountability at all XD
Ok so, I was born and raised in Louisiana and VIVIDLY remember watching this go down on WBRZ News. Mr. Gary Plauche (PLOH- shay) did what any real father would've done in that same situation.
It still amazes me how Gary just got community service. We live in a time right now where if you murder a murderer you get more time than the murderer would have
Less democrats then back when america was free and mostly homogeneous.
theres an interview with the judge from many years later and he said he regrets letting him off because he felt it was bad legal precedence even though it was obviously morally justified
@@MB-ms3ud when you take the emotion out of it. The countries principle is innocent until proven guilty. i dont know anything about the case and i am sure it was bang to rights he did it.
if he hadnt been found guilty yet in the eyes of the law and the law allowed a bypass for peaple to take their own justice then innocent peaple may be killed.
and before anyone says that wont happen i remember some idiots murdering a peadiatrician becuase they thought it meant he was a peadophile.
that said i probably might have done the same thing becuase like everyone else am human and not a machine
His actions show the lengths a father will go for his child. Remarkable yet heart-wrenching story.
Agreed. This story is why when my son started jiu jitsu classes I pulled his instructor to the side to let him know that I have more black belts than he does and a whole room just for my guns. I also told him to look up Gary Plauche. He already knew the story so I think we're good.
Cops: "Why? Gary, why??"
Gary: "You know exactly why!"
Jury: "Understandable, have nice day"

The idiot had to ask "why"?
"Why, Gary? WHAAAAAAAAAAAA?"

This man put himself at the chance of life in prison or even death penalty for his son. Every parent needs to be willing to go that far for their kids. Happy Father’s Day y’all

“Why, Gary?”
That always pissed me off. You know damn well why.
He sure did, which is why he asked why did he make them more paperwork and risk his family.
Apparently the cop knew Gary personally. He was probably sure that Gary had just bought himself a life sentence.
Because Gary in that moment possibly ruined his ability to be a proper father for his son, and gave the dude mercy. He is INCREDIBLY lucky that he only got probation from a plea baragin, as most people who get revenge for their child get sent to jail
@@ricedbroccoli Which is exactly why my dad has often said he *wouldn't* do something like this. He loves me and my siblings, but he can't do his job from a jail cell.

@@ImBarryScottCSS They kne him personally.
Weird how "fuck me" is ok to say but not a certain word for a "child chaser".
It's almost like there are people in high places that dont want to be called that, despite being one.
I think children should be aware that child abusers exist so they are more careful around strangers.
Hiding terrible things from children only results in them not knowing how to correctly respond to such dangers.
@@DakkaDakka12I totally agree. I don't understand why people try to hide facts from kids. Like even stuff like parents arguing & about to divorce, some people think it's best the kids know nothing, then get blindsided at the last minute with the news. I'm like better to know the facts & be aware of possibilities.
They want to be accepted in the alphabet soup but, not even the soup wants them.

I needed this video today. I am a fulltime single dad, and about 30 mins ago I was told by my 6 year old daughter (who was the victim of molestation with a weapon) by her ex step father, that she would rather live with her mother. Her mother hasn't done ANYTHING in the past three years to help me or my daughter. No money, no cloths, and hardly gets her ever. I almost lost my cool, and am now bawling my eyes out because I feel like I can't ever do enough to be respected or admired. I am a good father, and I've sacrificed sooooo much to make sure my daughter is safe and well taken care of. Thank you brandon, because this video made my day a little better.
I am sorry to hear that
Stay strong man eventually as she gets older, she will probably realize the things you have done for her.
@@noway-sk3yr I'm sure she will. Thanks for the kind words.
Tell her that if she ever needs you, you'll always be there.
I learned from my friends who adopted two young kids from an abusive situation that small children often transpose the bad thing that happened to the current adults in their life. It's just how the child's mind processes things, and they have no idea it wasn't you who did it. Later in life, she'll figure it out, but in the meantime, all you can do is show her love.
Yeah is wild hearing “why Gary why” as the cops reacted, because they thought Gary Plauche was going to jail for killing this POS instead of being absolved. Good on the Baton Rouge DA!
I'm not sure a jury today would willingly convict him, much less back in 1984, so the DA probably saw the writing and possibly pedo brain matter on the wall, though he might have also agreed with him.
Idea for Mother's Day: check out the story of Marianne Bachmeier, she shot the murder of her daughter in court.
She did it for Anna
That case was very sad. It seemed that Marianne, after enduring a crappy life of her own, was finally finding her feet. Then to have her daughter taken that way....
She was a shitty mom, but tried to make things right in the end.
She's an honorary mad lad.

It was, he also knew when to be there, not too early to arouse suspicion and not too late to take the shot.....
If not all, most of the deputies transporting the duche knew that he would not board that plane alive.

not really, maybe the most badass on camera.....plenty of good men in jail for their service to society. its very sad to be honest.

@@Smickster01 Gary didnt get to stay in a prison. He gets a community service at which was signed off immediately by the probation officer and the church pastor because of his service on cutting grass on a church years before his sentence which adds up to him completing the community service as soon as he gets the sentence. So not only that your statement isn't correct, he's still the most badass father in history.

This difficult shot is known by other names. However, most individuals affectionately refer to it as "the diddler" . . .
TBH, "What about my car's extended warranty?" is probably the coldest line before you waste somebody I've heard of.
Can we stop and appreciate the fact that not only was Gary able to underhand a 1 second headshot and not hit anyone else, he was able to know what airport the instructor would be landing AND what route in the airport the police would be walking him. Makes me wonder if he had any help.
I think it was one of the reporters leaked the info to him so he could confront the pedo. They wanted a juicy story. They got a juicy shower.
He had God's help.
That underhand hipfire is what scares me. I don't condemn what he did, but how he did it was very risky. There's a great deal of luck in a shot like that, even with for heavily proficient shooter. Thankfully there were no collaterals.
@@CrazyChemistPLit’s actually somewhat easy to get good at hip firing pistols. Practice your angles and make sure to keep your angle of eyesight directly above the angle of fire. Cowboy action shooters do this type of thing for fun. I’m positive he trained doing this for years before he dusted Doucette
@@danikaflorence444 I know. Still there's a huge difference between doing Cowboy Action at a properly setup range and doing something like this in a public airport.
