I was annoyed by his sardonic smile in so many of the pictures. Then I was glad to learn he was a quivering coward on the gallows. He felt suffering, as did his innocent victims.
He was an uneducated, low IQ fellow. They said "smile for the camera' so he did. It is a creepy smile though. 😒 it's probably the most attention he ever got. And it may have been the only time he got his picture taken.
So basically, the sick coward could beat and hurt young kids, but couldn’t take his punishment like a man. He could give it, but not take it! I’m glad the victims got justice! I’ve never heard of this case. Thank you for teaching me something new. Rest in peace to all victims.
It never fails to amaze me that there are some mothers who, no matter what evil their child has done, will go to extreme lengths to protect their child.
The thing is he is smiling and laughing in some of his pictures. If I was in his shoes as an innocent man I would be simultaneously angry and scared shitless. He thought it was a joke until the last minute.
@@angelobinder6159He was spoiled rotten by his mother. He was her favorite child, her golden child. She did everything for him. Like covering up his crimes. His dad was a pushover wimp.

He slumped down and that reduced the drop. If he has stood up straight the rope would have broken his neck. Northcott’s legs gave way and he began to collapse just as the trap sprang. His collapse took the slack out of the rope, and as a result his fall was too short to break his neck.
That's a possibility. Those people at San Quentin knew what they were doing. A lot of prisoners were hung back in those days, and the prison staff had lots of practice doing this. They probably used the US Army chart for determining rope length based on weight and height. No, I don't think they goofed it up accidentally.
Clint Eastwood made a masterpiece of a movie about this incident. Its called changeling, it was horrific what they did to a woman during this case. Look it up
It sure was a damn good movie i remember after watching it this movie i actually went and read more into this case he was one truly disturbed sick twisted young man and from what i found out the original house and chicken coop where the property it once sat on were both tore down not long after this happened.
@@patrioticyank4940 they renamed the town to Mira Loma thinking the legacy would die with the old name. What they put her through over her missing child was absolutely disgusting as well
@@thekentuckyrifleman Yup and come to find out i guess his parents had money to and to think they actually bought this little jerk that house plus along with having that chicken coop built for him cause he told his parents that's what he wanted to do for a living was raise chickens yeah he sure wanted to raise chickens alright.
The Changeling is a good movie. The Northcott property also still exists. I remember after the movie came out, people were constantly going by to check out the house. I believe the people living there didn't know what has occurred.
@@anbar1179 I know they torn down the original house along with the chicken coupe which i feel is the right thing they did out of respect out of the victims and their families some times they don't even tear down the house they just re sale it i know i lived not far from a home where the whole family was murdered inside it a triple homicide and they just turned around and sold the house anyway and i find it rather disrespectful and disgusting.
Fun Fact: One of his accomplices escaped to winnipeg where he committed another murder and was hanged at headingly jail, when the governor of california was called by canadian authorities asking if they wanted to extradite him he said "you guys can have him".
Me too,because Sanford makes no mention of this at all in his account. As far as I know there was no other accomplice,except maybe his mother,and there were no escapees from the ranch and no survivors.
1:50 min picture of the house.. this house is still there and is occupied.. Mira Loma , CA. The Excution wasn't botched..he was hanged till he stopped moving, a doctor was present.
The full story is far more horrific than you present here. He was a debauched pervert/sadist. That they let him slowly strangulate - I think - was done on purpose.
The Americans stopped hanging people because of incidents like this. They eventually came to the realisation that they weren’t very good at it. The problem was that too many organisations had the responsibility and they just didn’t have the expertise to do it properly. Here in the UK and elsewhere in Europe, there was a state executioner who had attended hundreds of executions and knew what they were doing. Not that I’m in favour of capital punishment.
His mother was probably trying to take responsibility for him. I wouldn't be surprised if there were bodies back in Canada where they lived if he was in fact guilty.
Is the clint eastwood movie The changeling based on that story, the guy in the movie owned a chicken farm and kidnapped and murdered loads of young boys, one managed to escape and raise the alarm and the guy was arrested with another young boy who was his accomplice in the murders, the guys name in the movie was gordon northcott so that's why i asked was there a connection between the two???

There's a Clint Eastwood-directed movie, "Changeling," that tells some of this animal's story, from the standpoint of the mother of one of his victims.

Not botched. Hanging is not an exact science. The video made of this execution differs from this narrative as they do not blindfold him prior to coming to the gallows as indicated in this narrative.
A dramatization of this execution can be seen in the movie "Changeling." That said, you know you're incompetent at the death penalty if you can't get hanging right.
Quite a good movie, would definitely recommend. After the actual Hanging of Gordon Northcott, it was proven that the execution was botched on purpose as a way to make Northcott suffer for his atrocious crimes.
@@-prayforthecleansing-5062 Too many evil people get off to easy, These nasty murderers don't care that their victims kicking a screaming - He deserved no better.
sometimes child killers just may get a short rope as some staff may not understand the exact length you need to make sure of a quick death and less suffering it was such a shame for him to die that way really it is such a shame sometimes when such things happen they usually pull the legs to help them maybe due to there was no one big enough to get his legs moving on.
@@seymourclearly didn't know that but i agree with you on this issue in America states with the death penalty have a much higher murder rate than States without it
@@seymourclearly Deterrence is not the issue, the issue is justice and keeping the murderer from reoffending. You cant deter sociopaths from killing any more then you teach a leftist logic!
@@charlesciminera5881 Yes there is a small possibility (less then 1%) of an innocent person being executed. The solution to this is having all the anti death penalty advocates pay for their incarceration out of their pockets.
He's last moments he knew what his VICTIMS FELT! NO sympathy for THIS CHILD monster -- should have been longer than 11mi minutes. I hope they have the body parts & use DNA to find who were the children.
You should go for elecution pronunciations vocab lessons. First time ever in my life have found such an annoying voice pronunciations. I apologise if your not English. It's the same in all your videos.

Although his name wa Gordon Stewart...he did no go by the Name Gordon, he was known as Stewart. The movie is very accurate concerning christine Collins, but TOTALLY inaccurate about Gordon " Stewart ". Stewart and Sanford were NOT cousins....Stewart was his uncle and Sanford his nephew. Very little details while in court. Both Stewartvand his mother turned it into a dramatic Kangaroo court. The movie stated that kids escaped, especially one in particular, but according to Sanford, noone escaped. Nor do they say exactly WHY the kids were on his ranch or what he did to them while they were there, and its probably to protect the memory of tjose boys an its likely thete are descendants and couins and such still alive today.....but he basically raped the living hell out of them,then killed them....
An very interesting piece but dear God please get a professional actor to do the narration- all those elongated syllables at the end of sentences, eg "Californiaaa", "fatherrrr".

They have a chart of height/ weight and what the drop is supposed to be according to the measurements. The least you can drop anyone is 2 feet.
As far as I'm concerned, it WAS NOT a botched execution. As long as he left the prison dead, it wasn't botched.
If anyone deserved the death penalty it was Gordon Northcott

I sure - he went straight to - HELL.
