So here is what happened: Guy figured out that they were using the cells of the kids grandfather (maternal side) for medical trials. Since the family did not know that, that was highly illegal. He wanted to confirm that the cells were that of the grandfather and so he ran a DNA test on his son. In the end the family got 10 million.
Henrietta Lacks. She was born with an interesting genetic defect. Her cells replicate with no mutations. Meaning that even as her actual body decayed with age, her cells would be immortal so long as cared for in a lab. Her DNA was harvested for a study into her cancer, but upon discovery of her cell's special trait, doctors and scientists multiplied her cells without her knowledge and without her consent. Her family would not learn of what scientists had done until the late 1970s. Her cells became instrumental in medical science because they gave researchers an unlimited supply of medical samples that all had the exact same reactions because they were completely immortal and never changed. Today, it is estimated that there are over 4 tons of Henrietta Lacks cells in labs around the world. Her family has received donations and awards for her contributions, but they dont want the accolades for being the victims of a system that violated their trust.
I definitely wouldn't say that they wouldn't change. The cells kept mutating, their genome so many generations down the line doesn't even resemble a human genome. Because they are not a part of a bigger organism and don't have active tumor suppresion genes that would induce apoptosis, all the genes not instrumental to self-sustenance and mitosis are mutated beyond recognition.
@MrQuest0 HeLa cells still retain the correct genome. Matter of fact, her genome was published publicly in 2013 from a fresh examination, its all still preserved, thats why HeLa cells are so unique. While the method of immortality her cells use can be replicated now, allowing sources other than HeLa cells for research, HeLa cells are still the best and most stable ever discovered, all because of a quirk in her genes that hasnt been thoroughly identified. Theoretically, if such a gene could be isolated, it would be possible to halt the aging process by making all cells reproduce perfectly with no degredation from the Hayflick limit.
@@ForageGardener except no. Her cells were not chosen at random. Her cells are perfect for replication and testing. normal cells, even cancer cells, dont replicate as reliably and stable as hers

I _know_ I’ve seen this episode before. Barely remember anything about the plot, but there’s something familiar about the way Detective Bernard spoke to the victim’s son. Rather heartwarming for a show about homicide motives.
Yes; the actors really made that scene resonate. The detective is sympathetic and unpatronizing, the boy in mourning but still trying to connect with his dad.
I both love and hate these amazing clips! 😂 They JUST get me hooked and - BAM! Theme music starts playing! 😫 I don’t have Peacock so I’m grateful for the comments with “spoilers!” 😁
I know right, rude, disrespectful and nasty. I’m a RN and my shoes stay in the garage plus I strip down into a garbage bag so as not to contaminate my home with a proliferation of bugs I may have encountered during the course of work.
I’m sorry, but: “Jayden, finish your cereal.” “I will, Mom. I just have to use my inhaler to BREATHE first!!” I don’t know why, but it just annoys me. Lady, look at your son!! See what he has to do!!
@@alrik359 Was stabbed because because a medical company was profiting off cancer cell taken from their grandfather and taking blood from the rest of the family to use in medical testing, getting rich off it while the family saw nothing (similar to Henrietta Lacks). His cousin took a plea deal in order in exchange for the medical company paying out 10 million to the family
His cousin killed him because he was going to take a low-ball offer from a medical research firm for his son's DNA, the same firm who stole his grandfather's cells and turned it into a multi-million dollar line of research cells known as NARO cells. The cousin wanted the company to compensate the family, which had been mired in generational poverty while the company thrived. Cutter was able to get the company to pay the family $10 million in exchange for the cousin (Doug E Doug) pleading guilty to manslaughter.
I feel it ironic how father and husband has been living a double life without them knowing. Or was it just the wife and only the son who knew about it? Considering before he left the house and before he was killed, he’s mentioned to his son about a special trip that the mom didn’t know about
You are mistaken. Why would you think thank, it makes no sense. Every cab in a city of millions having the same key? All it would take is 1 person to make a ton of copies and every cab would be vulnerable. dumb.
@@russellv6234 / you see this in some applications such as rental equipment (Ryder), fleet vehicles, Et cetera. It would not be unheard of for a taxi fleet to do the same.
Something to chew on. A convicted murderer of a woman, son, and son's friend that were killed. The murderer was convicted of life in prison and people feel safe thinking he gets his life in prison. However, he is sentenced to life with the possibility of parole after 30 years. They don't mention that to nullify people. I think he may get out and kill again and no one will take responsibility. That's the type of people we get to choose from. What is said is..., what is done is for money and benefits. Therefore, I trust no one and now you know why!
so basically the kids father was selling his own blood to some research institution and so the fathers cousin killed him because he was mad that he was selling his blood to them
@@calvinallen3424 Not quite. The victim was killed because he was going to cooperate with said pharmaceutical company. Aside from profiting off the grandfathers cells, they were taking blood samples from the grandfathers whole family (for reasons). Family was trying to sue but the desperate dad broke rank and was going to take money from the company in exchange for blood. Fight between the dad, a cousin, and a PI used by the company to find relatives saw dad get stabbed. Cousin took a plea deal in exchange for the company paying out $10 million to the family
I feel so bad for the kid his dad is dead and had no clue his father was questioning his paternity and his dad thinks a man who died 50 years ago was his son's father was he hoping his son would get some kind of inheritance out of this
I know a lot of people and to my knowledge only one of them owns a Ford. And I am only aware of that fact because he is married to one of my best friends.
The victim was his grandson. He was trying to get money from Hudson as restitution for using his grandfathers cells for 50 years. Look up HeLa cells. This happened in real life
Mi send Fi them from in a 2,015 and all now mi cannot see them.. Mi only a see Aunt Dorothy. Where is my family line which I filed for in the year 2,015? Wey dem, dey?
ever sins dstv force this show for everyone to watch the main characters of the show act like heels plus every night i see things that is wrong especially on how the main characters badly tried innocent victims this show need to go deleted from dstv

Immortal cells didn't do Henrietta any favours. The cancer (cervical) killed her in 1951, aged 31.
That is totally completely untrue. She was a cancer patient and it just so happens that hers is the d n a they've chosen to use
@@ForageGardener except no. Her cells were not chosen at random. Her cells are perfect for replication and testing. normal cells, even cancer cells, dont replicate as reliably and stable as hers
This episode got to me. It speaks to the reason why so many black folks are still hesitant to trust medical professionals today.
yet blacks still support planned parenthood for abortions in which the aborted fetuses are sold to research labs
yep!!!!
How do I watch the rest?
What season & episode? Did her doctors impregnate her with someone's sperm? Or is she a decendant?

This is the episode that features Cutter putting Lt. Van Buren on the stand and exposes her health concerns in open court without her consent
@@irishpogi So what happened with the dead father and his plan?
@@alrik359 Was stabbed because because a medical company was profiting off cancer cell taken from their grandfather and taking blood from the rest of the family to use in medical testing, getting rich off it while the family saw nothing (similar to Henrietta Lacks).

Question is why did any of this have to be a secret? Why did Jerome have to keep this info from his wife? They seemed to have a decent marriage.
