just so yall know this kid changed his story 3 different times on why he killed his mother. Dude is not "possessed" he's just psychotic
It’s like he really, honestly don’t know for sure why he killed his mom. I really believe he’s a sick person, and what ever scenario that played in his head that night really pushed him to to just kill her. Something is definitely going on in his head.
@@iloveahsharah very mentally ill for sure, criminally insane.
@@iloveahsharah he was planning it for years.
@@iloveahsharah well he planned it for years, his computer was littered with history of serial killers and their stories and dude read horror stories constantly. he even wrote about his favorite killers so yeah hes not sick, hes an evil person who fooled idiots like you with his stupid facade.
@@LunaOyaShe No he wasn't. He had thought about the act of doing it for years. He didn't plan it out until the night that it happened. There's a difference there.
I just watched the EWU episode on this making it clear that this guy is likely getting off on people reacting to him playing this evil character. Dr. Phil doing this and televising him as the ultimate evil character is his complete dream from the result of what he did. Awful that he’s getting this platform.
100%
Yes notes he wrote before show he is not like this all the time I get he watched slingblade and copied the character of Billie Bob perfectly
Personally I think it's fantastic to see this legend back on our screens.
What an inspiration to everyone and prey for more honest and straight talking people like him and Dr Philliam of course
@@philosophical2284 Legend? He killed his mom for goodness sake?
I just watched that too, in this interview I think his voice isn't as monotone as it was in the interrogation video on EWU. (still very eerie though!!)
I like how "Dr." Phil calls him evil. Because Zachary likes being called evil. You can see it from his interrogation. He smiles when one of the interrogators mentions how he has a look about him that looks evil. His story about hearing his deceased father was not his original story. He's acting. He's not evil. Calling him evil gives him what he wants. He's just a straight up psycho who deserves prison.
100% true. This is just a really messed up kid with serious mental issues that thinks his evil villian act is something cool. It's probably a coping mechanism too.
If he’s not evil, then what is? Lol you don’t make any sense.
@@Tatusiek_1 Calling him evil is giving him what he wants. And the world isn't black and white. It isn't evil or good. There's more to it than that.
@@KNOTTYBUDS Okay, sure it’s giving him what he wants, but that doesn’t take away that he’s evil. If he’s not evil then what makes someone evil?
@eggrollsoup It's like I said. Life isn't black and white like that. There is no standard for what makes someone evil. It's only an opinion. It's not fact. Unless he was literally the spawn of Satan, had horns, and had 666 across his head. You're asking me what makes someone evil when my requirements for what makes someone evil might be different from yours.
It's scary that he acted like he loved his mom, sending loving texts but turned around and did this.
Might not have been an act. He's very, very sick. I don't think even he understands why he killed her.
Fr they even went to the movies together! My mom didn't even allow me to go to the cinema when I was a kid
textinh sucks ❤❤
Yes..that's the scary thing that it seemed like their relationship was pretty good. Very deceiving!
1:55 You can hear he is trying to say “It wasn’t me.” but the demons take over and say “YEAH.” his voice and his movements from than on are barely human-like in my opinion.
I can't imagine how someone can have the courage to do an interview with someone so evil. Zachary must have some balls to agree to meet Dr Phil.
🤓👍
Lol
Damn 😂
Nothing to be scared of. Just a very mental person. That kid isn't all the way there for sure.
Mate he killed his mum, you really think he cares about a show pony like dr phill 🤣
If you read the last text her mom sent out it did not sound like she doesn't take care of them. She sounded like a great mom
She likely was a great mom
She definitely seemed like a great mom she texted them daily constantly letting them know that she loves them and tried to always come up with fun things to do as a family. Not only that but she seemed like she took care of herself she did biking and running as a hobby. She was doing all this on her own as a single parent. That kid was just born as a bad seed.
Yep. Sick bastard just wanted to feel some power in his life, so he killed his mother in her sleep like a filthy coward, claiming his brother rappped him, and she didn't protect/believe him.
Well, some parents are very good at acting. I talk from experience. It's not always what it looks like. A child that has been abused repeteadly will turn into a very twisted teenager and he did make a claim that he had been sexually abused at age 11 and nobody believed him. We do not know if that's true though; but i am just saying, things are not always what they look like.
She ignored him when he told her josh raped him and I 100% believe josh did rape his little brother, his interview and his mannerism is not normal of a young man who just witnessed his mum beaten to death.. he was too calm too. I believe he was worried about the abuse getting out..
Why do you think the lawyer requested Dr. Phil interview him? Is he trying to get Zachary some exposure for a book deal, movie, etc.? Is the lawyer trying to get some clout or money for it? I am willing to bet they make a movie about this kid.
No most likely going for the “not mentally fit to premeditate this crime” angle.
people do things out of curiosity. Dr. Phil wants to learn about people - obviously he interview him because he wants to know why he did what he did
@@nathanreeder1054 could have gotten that from a real psychologist instead of a tv personality.
@@teewhyeee He also knows what will get him a ton of views and revenue. I'm sure he's interviewed hundreds of psychopaths before.
@@micchaelsanders6286 man can do whatever he wants lmao
"I'd smash his head in with a can of green beans"
....
"DO YOU HAVE A STORY OR QUESTION FOR ME??!"
Lmfaoo
You know what’s interesting? Rewatch the interview, Zachary didn’t say that, Dr Phil was giving an example of what could potentially happen if Zachary had returned to society, because of how he had rationalized killing his mother. He felt his mother wasn’t being fair, and when asked why he didn’t just talk to her about it, he kind of shrugged it off and said it probably wouldn’t have done anything. I think that’s exactly what he would do if he had came back into the world.
@@StealthMode3924you’re right. I’ve seen this episode more then once so I pretty much had the word memorized, which makes me wonder why Dr.Phil chose to change it, but it’s obvious I guess, he wanted the kid to sound even more demented.
@@StealthMode3924 No, Dr. Phil wasn't giving an example. He was literally quoting Zachary. Dr. Phil was asking Zachary. and Dr Phil is telling us what Zachary's response to the questions were. This isn't just a random example.
This just in .... a manager was stoved to death with a tin of green beans today! We are still not sure if they were Birdseye or Del Monte, but we can confirm that no beans were harmed during the attack.
what a surreal experience to be in the same room with a psycho. but knowing you're all chained up and he gets to walk free to go back to his TV show.
LOL underrated comment
N1
W
For the Win!
Okay well played there
When he nods ( upwards ) in agreement is so bazaar.
Never seen that before.
I went to school in the early 90s with a kid who everyone knew was mentally challenged and he also nodded upwards as well. Only person I ever saw do that.
4:32 I like how he goes from talking like a war veteran with severe PTSD to "Smash that subscribe button and don't forget to like!" in 1 second
Showes you how fake phil is😂
Clearly that's the prerecorded clip he uses at the end of ALL his videos....did you not notice the difference in wardrobe?
@@loveboxinglucky1716 Completely different clothing....y'all be reaching 😂
“Some folks call it a sling blade…um-huh.”
I remember this interview. Here’s the thing about this one compared to let’s say Ted Bundy or somebody you wouldn’t know has dark fantasies, Zach is OBVIOUSLY depressed, dark, socially awkward, and dead in the eyes. You can 100 percent tell with him which is less scary to me. Jeff was also an obvious red flag. Then you have people who are good at what they do. Charming, manipulative, cocky, arrogant, smart, and charismatic. Some of these people are even attractive. Demons roam earth in all types of people. We’ve walked by a killer at least once or more in life. There’s demons everywhere…
Well said!
like the med student from Harvard. As an applicant to a doctorate level program it baffles me to know he passed the interviews with flying colors and gained admission and yet was a cold murder. They make you take a test called the CASPer that is suppose to be bullet proof....and he still fooled the committee.....scary indeed. Ted Bundy passed the LSAT and was a law student.....
That’s me❤
Obviously he was socially awkward.. his voice is the creepiest I've ever heard. I'm sorry but it's freaking me out.
🙏
Schizophrenia 101. Used to work at a locked down psych facility for four years, saw multiple people like this. Paradoxical laughter, changing voices, odd beliefs, command voices internally, etc.
Is levitation a part of schizo too?
Most definitely schizophrenia
Lol "for four" sounds funny.
I know. So sad. He actually believes he's a doctor.
@@Kmouch_Channel Why??
The EWU video got me here...
I think he deeply resented his mother because when he told her he was raped, she didn't believe him. His thinking was that if his father was alive they wouldn't have moved to the new place and the rape wouldn't have happened. He blamed his mother for alienating him and found it conflicting that she spoke so often of loving him and everything motherly but couldn't "take care of his family" when he needed her most. He completely shut down emotionally after that and lost it. When it comes to child rape, the child is usually groomed and slowly coerced into the act. It sounds as if he was violently raped in an episodic way and that completely broke him. He never forgave her for not believing him. He was bitter and he loved inflicting that pain onto her. This guy is gone. He should not be allowed back into free society.
Why I felt like he is s*x victim from them both......
Excellent observation, I said something very similar under the video of this guy.
it almost sound like you justify is actions.
@@tsachie4822 No need to attempt to gas light me. The last two sentences of my original comment should explain how I feel about what he did. I wasn't justifying the behavior, albeit it abnormal and multi-pathological, I was suggesting that there's usually a psychological explanation for this type of shocking and grotesque behavior. The man who raped him should be named, arrested, prosecuted, convicted, and thrown in the same cell with this guy.
Spot on
Listen carefully from 1:50 and hear him say "it wasn't me" before he said "yeah"
😳😳
Woe!!!!
Insane find
Good find
Yeah something fishy I think. Also why is Dr Phil asking him questions like what sound it made, pretty sick question.
He sounds just like Billy Bob Thornton in Sling lade
Yeah that’s the one!
I watched this man’s interrogation with the detective, and I will never forget it
There are worse than this.
I think he's 15 yrs old.
Straight out of a horror movie. The fact that he was so polite made it even more sinister.
His mother's not here to defend herself but when the cops checked text messages, she was calling him her "sweet child" and they're were plenty of ❤️ emojis between him and his mom and his brother. He also said he still wanted to kill his brother.
My mother absolutely tortured me in my child and teenage years in ways people wouldnt believe. She told me , for years, things like "I wish you werent born". That's actually one of the nicest things she used to say. Yet people still to this day believe she is a good person and mother because she never, ever showed that evil side to others and of course she'd always pretend to be nice when texting, she'd never leave any evidence. Things are not always what they look like. I hated her and took me many years to forgive her and she didnt deserve my forgiveness at all. I wouldnt have done what this boy did but his case was much worse than mine if it's true that he was raped at age 11 as he claimed on his first interrogation. Who knows, i am just saying that it's possible, these things happen and it's not always as obvious as it looks.
@@vanessaruiz4705 Sorry for what happened to you and I'm well aware abusive people hide themselves from others and the problems appear to be the abused. I had a friendly and abusive husband. I was quiet and kept to myself, so people generally had a negative impression of me while he seemed like this great guy, so I know what it's like to know the real person when everyone else sees something else. He may have been raped and may have blamed his mother for not knowing/not protecting him/being part of it. Hopefully, if he were abused, his brothers would speak up; but I don't think they corroborated his story. I'm also aware one child may be abused and the others are not. He seemed to be disturbed at an early age and that may or may not have anything to do with abuse. We'll just never know and she can't defend herself. He also said he wanted to and still would kill his brother. We just don't know in his case what's real and what's not and what caused his break, but certainly *something* happened. Sad all around... People have their public faces alright that's for sure. Take care...
While it is true that some individuals with mental illness may exhibit violent or harmful behavior, this is not the norm, and many people with mental health conditions live normal, productive lives.
Ultimately, the difference between someone who is mentally ill and someone who is viewed as a "monster" depends on how society chooses to perceive and treat them. By understanding and addressing the underlying causes of mental illness, we can help individuals receive the care and support they need to lead healthy, fulfilling lives.
It may be best to distance yourself from the person and seek support from friends or a therapist. It is also important to remember that not everyone is who they appear to be initially, and it is okay to be cautious. It is important to set clear boundaries and expectations for how you want to be treated. If the person is unwilling to acknowledge their behavior or make changes, it may be necessary to distance yourself from the relationship.
Yes, confronting someone with schizophrenia can be a challenging task as they may experience difficulty in distinguishing their thoughts from reality and may have intense emotional reactions to certain situations or triggers. It is important to approach the situation with empathy and understanding, and to take into account the person's unique experiences and needs.
However, it is important to remember that everyone has the capacity for good and bad, and there may be underlying factors or circumstances that contribute to someone's behavior.
@@vanessaruiz4705 ❤
I have a theory there was some sexual abuse going on and he blamed his mom for not stopping it or for doing it. It just seems like the most likely motive seeing as he doesn't want to share it.
"Did you kill your mother?"
"It wasn't me"
I remember that part freaked me out so much.
He didnt say "it wasn't me", do you often gaslight yourself 🤣🤣
@@K4inan Right before he says "yeah" you can hear "it wasn't me".
@@stephaniemarie4303 No... you cannot.
@@K4inan I can. You are just deaf. Tell me what he said then?
@@stephaniemarie4303 He said nothing, he was just fumbling his words.
1:19 most raw handshake ever
Nothing more evil or creepier than Dr. Phil.
Demagogue
I think he knows what he's doing and trying to portray.
@Juan Luis I think it's still "him" but I think he definitely knows wtf he's doing and he enjoys it and enjoys being "weird"
He absolutely loves the attention from acting like this. He’s not psychotic. I totally agree with you.
We had this thing among friends when I was a teenager. We'd look at blood and gore videos like people watch America's Funniest Home Videos. We fed into "evil". We were all depressed, cynical, antisocial, self-harming, anxiety plagued kids. Being called "evil" was a compliment. Just like it is with all these other mentally ill people. Richard Ramirez was the cringiest. The difference between us and these people is that we still had a buried conscience. They don't.
@candycat No $hit, m0r0n.
I hate that curiosity and the human brain makes us want to explore the darkness. Like this video for example, and the entire TH-cam channel
@@Mr0ptimistPhil's head is a perfect hatchet receiver though
Because you can hate the world and all the evil in it, the unjust treatment of others that exists, you can hate this world , but you can forgive everyone. Murderers just want to watch the world burn
i couldn't help but feel sorry for the little boy he once was...but then the giggle....
Hehehe
Creepy indeed. Could have been a nervous reaction.. but this dude always gives me the creeps
Don't be sorry that's why people like this exist.
My heart literally sank when he laughed
he has been diagnosed with schizophrenia. laughing when you know you shouldn’t is a common symptom
same
omg me too
I laughed too
You guys are weak
I understand Davis was diagnosed with schizophrenia. The ease with which he is demonised and written off as "pure evil" here is dismaying. This is undoubtedly a tragic case but we do not live in a black and white world.
I agree. Someone can be labeled as pure evil but there’s always a reason for this evil behavior underneath this exterior. Trauma and mental illness are two of them.
I wonder if he’s being treated for his mental illness. It doesn’t look as if he has changed.
I heard that he didn’t get life without parole but a 70 year sentence with a possibility for parole somewhere down the way. I expect that he won’t get out on parole but the fact that he didn’t get life in prison baffles me
He's clearly unwell.
murderers are generally evil
Agree. I think sane people who kill out of greed and selfish interest are evil. Hes just sick. People just saying hes evil cause he talks like batman and comes off creepy.
"There is a black, and there is a white, but the middle is always evil".- Ayn Rand.
Omg this is beyond scary and evil.
Was waiting for him to say, "im batman"...
My personal theory: His father's death (from ALS) affected him deeply around the age of ~9. In his initial curiosity to understand the concept of death as a child, he became increasingly fixated on it, and obsessive about it. Into adolescence, he was reading a lot of Stephen King and various books regarding homicide. Also browsing many 'gore/death' websites etc. They say he had a vast 'collection' of gore images. Adding to all that, his mental/emotional illness or 'odd/flat' demeanor, being picked on at school, I think all this death/murder fascination actually became somewhat 'incorporated' into his identity*. It's clear in his own personal writing that he saw himself almost as 'death itself' embodied. It probably made him feel powerful. Fantasizing about murder and other violent crimes. In short, I think he was horrifically traumatized by his father's death, his fascination with death became an integral part of his identity, and almost served as a developmental disability in it's own right alongside whatever other 'issue' he clearly has. I think his mother and brother were targets of convenience, at least more than anything else. He was a disturbed child who became a disturbed young man. What's chilling, is that was just the late 2000s internet age. Children should most definitely never be given unrestricted internet access. That's a good way to screw someone up.
I think that was the worst time for children to be on the internet. even though its still insane, its still way more regulated today than it was in the early 00'. It was like the wild west back then.
@@Jules-rk1sp I would argue that it is far worse today. Apps like TikTok were engineered with the help of behavioral scientists and aggregated (personal) Social Media data. They created something like a digital addiction machine. Now, a teenage girl with body issues, who lacks a sense of purpose or belonging, can stumble across gender ideology and find herself popping hormones a month later.
The strange generation produced by the early internet created a lot of nihilistic parents with the same absence of 'purpose' who won't hesitate to use their children as a political statement. Even altering them physically for life in some cases.
Overall, I think this is just what Cultural Decline looks like. Lots of Nihilism, and Vapid self-serving Vanity. A kind of self-worship. Almost certainly no good will come out of it. I just hope we find a way to adapt somewhere down the line. A lot of these problems are very Western Culture-specific.
I think this is a good assessment, but I also feel he might have been triggered to do this by the teacher who he thought hated him but had been his friend.
He has no idea why he did what he did. You will never get a real answer, because it doesn’t exist. Psychopaths do things for LACK of emotions, not because they have good reasons
what is up EWU crew
Before he says yes, when asked if he killed his mother, you can hear him trying to say "it wasn't me". I believe if anyone is possessed, it's him.
Maybe the father ? He keeps saying that the mother wasn’t taking care of his family that sounds like something the deceased father would say, maybe this kid thinks he’s possessed or is possessed by the father
@@karenpotter3562 There is nothing like that, u cant be possesed by dead soul but buy demon who can only pretend to be someone who is dead
No you can't. You're just hearing what you want to hear. He literally was just fumbling his words.
He's not possessed 🙄
It’s an act. He thinks he can outsmart people by emulating characters from books. I don’t find it believable in any way. There are subtle ways in interviews where he can display real emotions but just masks very subtly. He is evil, and the devil is real. I just don’t believe he is one of them, just pretends.
Out of all the Interviews Dr.Phil has done. This one Stole the cake. Zachary Is Sooooo Dark it’s demonic . He truly gave me chills . It makes me think 💭 WHAT WENT WRONG? Like what made him just become this person over the years .
The devil
1/29/23… It seems both boys are emotionally vacant. The other brother never shed a tear in the police interview. He never asked what’s going to happen to Zach. I think there maybe be a gene missing from both children.
Psychosis, schizophrenia and depression left untreated
Absolutely demonic.
@@susanobrian2616 did you take into account that MAYBE he was in a state of shock?
I don't think he's evil - he is very ill mentally - and he has never gotten the help that he has needed. This is so incredibly sad on so many levels.
Either way he is evil
You can be both...
He is not evil. His father died, and lots of things :(
@aqualemon6453 yeah, um.....when someone tells you out of their own mouth they laughed after they bashed their mother's brains in.....then believe me. They're evil
@@aqualemon6453not being strong enough to resist makes you weak, he is weak either way, and certainly evil for not considering the life of his mother
The fact we all think about such a horrible crime he gas done and how evil or monster he is is kinda scary, I was wondering how lonely and scary it is living as this kid when no1 understand what's wrong with you including yourself.
It’s up to people around you to take care of the situation before it gets out of hand.
In the interview I watched few years back, doctor Phil give a "what if you could walk out of here"
I remember Dr Phil saying " if you get a job, and you think your boss wasn't treating you fair, would you take another approach on how to handle the situation or would you pick up a can of green beans and beat him to death in the head. Towards the end of this show, he said that Zachary said all that. Mind you i think Zachary is evil should never be released but Dr Phil told a straight lie about the can of Green beans. I'm going to search for that interview he had with that boy when he was seventeen to see if I'm wrong but the only person that brought up smashing someone's Brains in with a can of green beans was Dr Phil giving an "what if" to Zachary, asking Zachary, how would he handle that situation if he was given a second chance. If I'm wrong, then my apologies, I remembered wrong but you guys search that interview. Post what you think.
Yeah, I just watched the whole interview and I came back here to see if anyone else said anything about Dr Phil lying about the green beans thing. I also found it strange that here he says he's evil and in the original interview he said he really needed help. Maybe he changed his mind as time went on? The whole story is so disturbing that perhaps it's just something he's misremembering now.
1:55 He whispered "It wasn't me"
you tripping
He definitely said it wasn't me than said YEAH @@austinirwin9347
Shii that is super scary
he didn't!
That was creepy.
He makes Hannibal Lector look like Barbie
“ I’ m a Barbie Girl 🎼🎼😉
what a weird question... who asks what it SOUNDED like when you murdered your mom?
Why would Zachary's attorney want Phil to interview him?
I think he watched slingblade, became Billy Bob Thornton's character Carl to a T, or maybe felt they were the same? in the movie billy bob's character Carl killed his own mother and a man she was making love with. It really is shocking how similar he is to that character!
Yup, dudes trolling
I haven't watched Sling blade but when I first looked at him. He reminded me of and emo kid trying act like the Joker or something. Makes sense he took in that character and it consumed him to this day. He's probably there inside but he won't break character. I wonder how he is in prison. Kicking it with homeboys eating Ramen noodle soup and watching the Titans game?
@@jasonkane4295 well it's a great movie and should be watched and I guarantee you'll understand where I was coming from!
Thought the same thing. Sounds like sling blade
The guards didn't want to be in the same room? Lmao how much Dr Phil pay them?
New title: Dr. Phil gets possessed by Zachary after watching interview replay.
Clearly this man is ill and he’s where he needs to be. I sure hope he gets the mental health that he desperately needs.
What would be the point of mental health treatment for murderers who are confined to their own personal cells and never physically interact with other inmates?
It's not like he personally suffers distress from his murderous urges, nor does he have any opportunity to satisfy them. So what would therapy or medication accomplish?
He says under his breath after he asked him if he killed his mom "it wasn't me"
i heard it
you're all imagining things!! it was just mumbling
Later, in a new version of the story, he said that his brother killed his mother. So...maybe he almost blamed him and gave up anyway.

He sounds like Billy Bob Thornton in Sling Blade
First time dr phillis didn’t try to bully a guest. He was shitting his pants.
I love that Dr Phil said, Whole "Nother" Level.
I believe when he said that his mother was not taking care of his family it was because of when he was raped at the age of 12 when he told his mother and she thought she had made it up. That's what I believe what he's talking about that his mother was not taken care of her family. Also he spoke about killing his mother for several years. And this was the reason why because she wasn't taking care of her family
I don’t think that laugh can be interpreted as easy as oh he thinks it’s funny. Theres something there, behind that laugh that holds nervousness and fear perhaps ?
It is a almost like a tic that he can't control it seems. Definitely a symptom of whatever is wrong with him. He honestly should be in a mental hospital..
I don't think so. I think he thinks it's funny.
he admittedly thought killing her was funny so why would the other time be nervousness
Seems like zacky boy is putting on a show. He watched too much sling blade.
He spoke like this for the entire 3 years I went to school with him. Don't be ignorant.
A lot of it is pure act
I was thinking of sling blade when i heard his voice!!!
@@ska66i6alDid he act like this too, completely indifferent to life?
He just looks so broken. I wish we knew more about his life prior to this... people dont snap like that by being loved and cared for.
I beg to differ... their are people who were loved and cared for who do just snap.. its called mental illness
“I thought she deserved it.” Evil.
Not someone I would want living out in the world, even 40 years from now.
@@piperbeaudry7348 Your exactly right... No amount of love was going to stop this kid from killing him mom.
Loving and caring too much using has an adverse effect.
I think his brother also had something to do with it. He was so calm and emotionless when his mother died.
It's very possible
he was probably in shock, he just lost everyone in his family that night
I thought the same
He was asleep in bed when Zach tried burning the house down, ran over to the neighbors house and called 911. His brother was completely normal, I was in JROTC with him back in high school. Zach just snapped
He thinks he's Michael Myers. Actually comical in some ways. 😂
People really do need to learn what schizophrenia is and telling the difference between that and evilness.... omfg
Speak 🙄
Yep. Shocking opening to this video especially from a doctor.
People can be both.
I mean he was diagnosed schizophrenic with a depressive disorder by medically trained doctors so I’m guessing they know the difference.
well you can be a schizo and still evil, its not exclusive.
he had plans to be a serial killer too... at age 15.. and after he bludgeoned his mother to death he set the house on fire hoping it would kill his brother but the fire didnt spread far
If you're going to call this guy evil, that term needs to take a back seat to selfish and cowardly. Evil implies there is some sort of power that he possesses. Like we should be in awe of him. Not likely. No doubt he is segregated from general population. They'd eat him alive. The guards not wanting to be around him is probably because he projects a selfish negative depressing energy.
Yeah, Phil saying the guards didn't want to be around him seemed more like part of the sensational atmosphere Phil's trying to create, and serves the same purpose as the eerie music that plays during the interview. It makes Zachary Davis seem like some kind of demon, when he is not. He is a man with mental issues, the dangerous sort, who did something horrible and needs to be kept somewhere so that he won't hurt anyone again. Treating him like the boogeyman doesn't help anyone, and it gives him attention that he doesn't deserve.
thanks, Dr. Phil
There is no such thing as pure evil. There are reasons why people end up like this.
Yes
Killing cats without a reason as a kid is pure evil
No such thing as pure evil? Hitler? Ghengis Kahn? Pol Pot? Saddam Hussein? Vlad the impaler? Ted Bundy? Charles Manson? C’mon man!
Nobody should care about the reasons
He obviously watched SLING BLADE and thought that would work.
Interesting theory, only... Hes convicted and there is no point in keeping up the show. Think about it. lol
Anybody noticed the way he shakes his head when answering yes to a question? That’s a sign of something I think
Brain damage?
Just another one of Zachary's little attempts at being interesting
@@prebenjaeger Ahhhhhh
@@prebenjaeger this isn't a joke or game. Mental illness exists. Not everyone tries to be edgey . It's Dr. Phil that wants the views ... he isn't even a therapist. He exploits ppl.
This is demon possession. That is why he's very dark around his eyes.
This kid was raped by some family member (maybe his brother), he told her mom, her mom didn't believe him... She took him out of therapy so it wouldn't be known... That event, combined with a mental problem, led to this.
Raped by his own brother at 11, told her mother she never believed him, they both created a monster.
...no matter what we do or been through ...its no excuse i could tell you things that would make you squirm
Dr Phil's writing himself pain pills, he's high as a kite on that good dope lol... opiates
Anyone else notice this kid nods 'up'?
My cousin killed his Mom. He had been diagnosed but so gentle growing up. I believe he snapped,she was sending him back to an institution, she couldn,t manage.
He was pulling a Slingblade all the way. He didn’t run around talking like that his whole life and his mom never got him help!
Glad I wasn't the only one who thought that.
His brother and teacher said he always talked like this.... explore with us has the full docu and interviews of police
“Some folks call it a Sling blade, I call it a Kaiser blade, mmm hmm”
His mom DID get him help and sent him to psychologists.
@@saltypasta9562 that’s my point. I was being sarcastic. Obviously if he is acting like this a parent would get their child some help. Or try to help them
He said in the police interrogation that she wasn’t a good nor a bad mother. Here he says she never took care of the family. He is evil, no need to put labels on it.
his brother supposedly r-worded him at the age of 11, & his mom didn’t believe him. & this was just after losing his father. i honestly think that was his motive. & i think that’s what he meant when he said “she wasn’t taking care of my family”
I didn't realize he said his brother. I thought it was an uncle or something
@@bloombloom4245 actually it was never revealed who he was referring to, but it would just make sense if it was the brother. It'd explain it all. And the brother, if you watch his parts on their first interrogation after the murder, was not behaving exactly like a normal person either.
@@vanessaruiz4705 it was revealed, zachery told the police in his interview eventually.
He said it was some family member other than his brother, and if he suffers from delusions then it likely didn't happen, even if he believes it did. The truth to this might never come to light.
This boy had been fully possessed since he was 11. This is a level 1 physical possession, the human soul is not present at all, it's been deactivated completely. Schizophrenia many times is a strong mental, spiritual or total physical possession to varying degrees. This is the nature of this reality we're in and it would do everyone good to become aware of these things, and it has nothing to do with religion or being religious.
Many times possessions to this degree happen after a severe trauma (such as childhood abuse or grape). Lack of ability to process leads to dissociation, attracting dark energies to fill the void, feeding off the pain and wanting to creating more pain for fuel. That's their food.
Evil entities enjoy attention and being called evil. It's flattery for them.
That outro was very fitting
I agree. That transition was weird
What a delightful chap, engaging, insightful with a relaxing voice, great stuff!!! Take note people, don’t let your son stay in his bedroom on his lattop
I wonder if the prison would let him narrate horror stories? That voice could make The Cat in the Hat spooky.
What is deeply disturbing to me, are the comments here. Dr. Phil meets with a psychopath who bludgeoned his mother to death .. the mother that regularly exchanged notes with him that say "I love you", and with hearts drawn. He even said he didn't want her to suffer. That's because she was a good, normal mom who loved him. He set a fire that was meant to burn his brother alive. He never shows emotion nor remorse. He said he'd been planning the murder for several years before he did it. He laughed when he remembered the "sound" of bashing her head in. He laughed when he told the detective that he threw his shirt away because it was splattered with his mom's brains. Originally, he'd planned to stab her to death. He talked about killing other people as well.. anyone who got in his way. He always speaks in monotone, like something possessed. Yes, he was raped. Once. Not that any amount of rape would be okay, of course. But millions of people get raped, multiple times, even for years, and they rarely become robotic murderers. But here, these comments range from hurling insults at Dr. Phil (do we have a lot of 7 year olds here?), to excusing the psychopath's behavior as being a result of a less than stellar childhood, to clamoring for his release because surely he can be cured and become a normal human being that would never hurt anyone again. It appears that a large segment of humanity has chosen to replace sanity with indifference and contempt. It seems we're a world splitting in half between the sane and the insane.
This is really sad. He is obviously very sick.
I just see two people without shame or empathy sitting in a room together.
He never said that he would do that wit the can of green beans you said that dr Phil 🤦🏽♀️ I hope this kid got some help man. What he did was sick n sad but he’s sick himself! He’s a sad lost soul
A man in my hometown lost it and decapitated his mother and carried her head while he stabbed his aunt so many times they couldnt get an exact number .
His nephew managed to run and made it a few hundred feet before he caught him and stabbed him 28 times . Someone came driving by and found him across the railway tracks.
He was placed in a criminally insane asylum and will never be free .
If it is possible for a person to be possessed this person in the video is .
The feeling over the internet is pure evil .
Thank God he was caught before he had a chance to do this to some one else .
My god Dr. Phil is the most unskilled TV host, even after all these years
he has a good show for what it is, hes a decent entertainer but a horrible ''doctor''
Dr. Phool
He seemed genuinely freaked out by Zachary lmao
When doctor phil asks him if he killed his mom he stutters out "It wasnt me" under his breath before saying "...Yes." Its at 1:54 and easy to miss. I didnt hear it the first few times I saw this interview. Its creepy af. Not sure what would cause this but its one of the most unsettling things ever. I don't think he is acting.
Let's not forget that in most! - maybe not all but most - cases people don't just become evil out of the blue, but really bad things were done to them.
Zack was bullied left and right from what I was told by his older Brother as well as my own Brother who was best friends with both of them.
im glad that this type of thinking is starting to become normalized. there are no evil people. only people that do evil things, and they do them for a reason
@Pack Rat No he was not, keep up the tall tales. Nobody bothered Zach because everyone pitied him and respected his older brother. I never once heard or saw anyone bully him, just gossip behind his back occasionally.
Sometimes.
@@ska66i6al ... excuse me but josh talked about the bullying in their first interrogation, it's on video. There was also an alledged rape.
I cant agree with Dr Phil on this one, however I do agree with him 95 % of the time. Evil is not the issue here, this person has a serious mental disorder, its easy to see and hear. He lived many years with his mother, if he were evil this would have happened long before. He is sick mentally, maybe a serious form of Autistic Spectrum disorder or Psychosis. I cant think of any reason to broadcast this the way Phil did except for,,,,, well I think Phil is just plain wrong in his wording and approach.
He didn’t say he would smash a boss with green beans.. You said that.. Why Dr phill are you trying to make him look worse than he is. He’s done a good job doing that himself.
Exactly he never even said that
Jesus how many times does Dr Phil blink 😂
The way his lips move when talking is fascinating. Absolutely fascinating.
Nigga what
I don’t like it. He’s like some ugly puppet thing.
This guy is less messed up than the world
On original footage his mom failed to protect or even believe he was sexually assaulted by his brother and that was the reason it started. Possibly the evil persona is his shell. Neither he or his brother were very emotional in footage hours afterward, both acted like nothing much had even happened. He did say he wished he had killed his brother too.
Was it his brother? In the video I watched it just said a family member, it didn’t specify who
That man is beyond evil.
That’s the persona he wants
@@ParadoxicaI_insomnia whether he wants it or not is irrelevant. He is evil.
He was diagnosed with schizophrenia and depressive disorder. Something that can happen with the loss of a family member in childhood. An untreated episode of psychosis can result in structural brain damage due to neurotoxicity. This is why a lot of these people hear vocies to convince them to do things. Like killing a parent because the voice say so. In this case, the voice of his dead father
I think he’s completely sane. That voice is all an act. When he laughs it’s cause he’s breaking character.
Wat
I'd like to see the whole interview. Where do I find it?
look up the channel " Explore with us". Its such a good channel you'll want to subscribe.
Oh jeez this is so scary to think your son could do that to you , I hope my son don’t hold it against me for all the times I’ve told him times up on his computer, so sad poor woman 😢
Lol are you scared now from your son ?
Lea Bo Just don't restrict his computer time anymore and you'll live. You're welcome.
@@Rover-gg8jj no not at all
@@davidl570 it’s crazy to think he could do this to his mother my son shows me nothing but love
@@lea24457 Good to hear!
I hope for society's sake that he stays locked up.
1:55 it sounds like he went
“it wasnt me…. YEAH….”
is this dude being controlled by demons? Wtf
Wow
psychopaths actually remember things very differently. So of course his story would change a few times.
Everyone is so quiet 😈
I came here after watching his full police interview and I have so much pity for this kid and I don't know why. It's as if he's never been awake enough to know goodness, never even been given the chance to reject it.
And his poor brother. A normal kid with a long dead father, an insane, murderous and infamous brother, and his brother's brutalized victim that he saw with his own eyes, his mother.
There’s nothing more deceiving than evil masking as sympathetic.
That was pretty slow going, thought Dr Phil was going to fall asleep.
Mf looked stoned at 1:33
Is it just me or does this guy sound like Carl from Slingblade?
