I thought I would have to cheet and go watch this case on another youtube so I am that it publicly and not private but I had been watching eleanor neele for 3 and half year 🤶🏻
It’s so ignorant and selfish. So aggravating because they don’t have to worry about it daily so they can ignore it. When people say something doesn’t exist or they don’t really like to worry about it is quite a funny way to say “I don’t have to care about my rights or safety because it’s always been given to me automatically.”
Well they're correct. There are plenty of people who don't care for homosexuality, but that isn't a condition requiring a term. Calling it a phobia is ridiculous. We don't call dislikes phobias.
@@bevcrusher4177 since these terms are fabricated from society and culture, yes it does exist. it takes on a new meaning, not like the anxiety disorder that causes “phobias”. it utilizes the word “phobia” to describe that people deep down are scared of things that are different than them and in turn act out in foolish ways (like calling people slurs). language is not always just merriam webster defined.
Yeah, as someone who's been nearly hate crimed for being with their partner, it's not fun. We've gotten plenty of stares and ugly looks (we live in a very conservative area) and a few "f*cking d*kes" throw at us. And all we're ever doing is holding hands while we walk.
its bc those people are sad individuals who will never achieve anything in life and will be once forgotten when they die. they start shaking with rage when they see someone in the lgbt, who is achieving and living life to the fullest, and realize that they can do everything better than they ever could.
The fact that he had a crush on a boy and his friends told that boy, and not only that but this boy punches him Is SOOOOO horible and heartbreaking. I was on the verge of tears when I heard that. RIP
This put me in tears. Someone’s sexuality has NOTHING to do another person. He was being himself. He was comfortable . He was happy with himself. Not many people are comfortable in their own body. What a miserable person someone has to be to torture & murder him! He didn’t deserve what happened AT ALL.
Exactly. It shouldn't concern you who the person loves because love is love. If I knew this guy and was his age, I would've loved to be friends with him. We probably would've gotten along great. I wish he would've been able to live his life and not having it end before he could've found someone who made him happy
Hmmm, just to address a couple of comments I've seen accusing me of deleting some people's comments about this case - TH-cam actually holds your comment from being posted if it identifies that you've used hateful or threatening language in it.... Maybe that's why.
Also, while I'm here, I appreciate those of you that have commented to correct my description of gender fluidity/non binary/trans terms... You can do all the online research in the world, but nothing will teach you as well as an explanation coming from those people themselves - so thank you! I feel lucky to have such an understanding and polite audience - and I thank you all for being so kind with corrections as always Xx
You're deserving of kind audience! Maybe even a bigger one! This is definately the best true crime TH-cam channel I have seen and I am happy to be a subscriber!
This case was hard, but I loved how you held respect for the LGBTQ+ community and went through the trouble of explaining the terms and making sure they were understood.
the fact we have a poc & lgbtq member case has me with mixed feelings ): i’m happy we are covering these cases but it’s so upsetting these cases happen
I will never understand how people can kill someone for something as stupid as their sexuality, gender identity, race etc. like how can one person foster so much hatred.
Because they're uneducated, childish and pathetic. They can't take responsibility for their lives choices like an adult and change the way their life is going. Also meth.
@@lapislazulii141 Don’t equate pro-poc to “anti whiteness”, silly. And “Hollywood” being pro-poc has nothing to do with bigoted & homicidal white people.
@@lapislazulii141 how the hell is “Anti Whiteism” promoted in Hollywood? Not only that, you need to stop making things all about you when this has nothing to do with you. Based on the other comments I’ve seen of yours, I can tell you are racist and homophobic. Disgusting.
I dont get why people are homophobic if you know your straight what is someone being gay gonna do to your straightness thats why i think homophobic men are closeted but are scared to come out because of this disgusting world we live in.
@@qtbubblez5803 it does in situations like this, quite often poc murders don’t get taken seriously or get solved because of the systemic racism. this means that when true crime youtubers cover cases like this, especially unsolved ones, it can bring these poc to justice. in this i’m not saying that cases involving white people always get solved or taken seriously i’m just saying that it is a very big and real issue in today’s world.
@@qtbubblez5803 it does especially as black people do not get a lot of coverage at all , so it does matter when someone is making a difference and actually including different races in their videos
I don’t get why people get so pissed when people are different from them. Like how am I affecting you because I’m gay? Why are you mad that I’m gay? How does it concern you?
I can answer that question: I didn't know that there were different sexuality or pronouns. When I did learn about it- many other kids has already had certain bias towards people who were associated with different sexuality. They were very mean and making mockery of them. It's gotten to a point where someone would be bullied and harassed for being different. I have gotten influenced and gotten the mentality being different was bad or forbidden. That continued for few years until I have learnt more about different sexuality and pronouns from my partner. My partner helped me see through that disgusting mentality and helped me realise that being apart of different sexuality does not mean something bad. I shouldn't discriminate someone because they have a different sexuality. Since then, I have been learning different sexuality and pronouns- I try to use the pronouns that makes an individual comfortable. I do not have any discriminatory thoughts towards someone of a different sexuality thanks to my partner. I will try to help others realise this as my partner helped me so there are less people to suffer through harassment/bullying for being different.
I found her facebook. Damn she loves her children (as any mother should) She’s so strong. Along with his siblings. He was comfortable to be who he was at home & honestly not everyone in the community has the chance to do that. That alone boosts my respect for her by a million !!
I'm a 31 year old dude who makes and fills paint for a living at work. Every day (monday-friday 5am to 130 pm) I pop my headphones in, put my phone in my pocket and listen to these videos. Wanna say I appreciate you. You make my work day fly by. These two part videos last long enough to make my day a little easier.
Im a nurse and i work 12 hour shifts so when im doing paperwork or some kind of work that im not directly with pts o do the same thing. I turn on these videos and a few others and let them play while i work and it really does make the day go by faster.
i really just don’t understand how people (especially men) get so angry when a gay and/or trans person says they like them like ??? how is that an insult to you ?? and if you think that’s weird or ruins your masculinity or whatever you have to get tf over yourself
If it were a girl who approached them and said they liked them but the feelings were not reciprocated they certainly would not punch her in the face for it. A reasonable person would be flattered, kindly say thank you but I do not feel that way, and move on. But no. People have to be violent and hateful because someone is different.
@@emileelamica7701 thats not true. "Ugly" girls most certainly would get shit too. I was kicked in the vagina for having a crush on someone in highschool. Like enough to bruise me. I still dont understand why anyone would react with violence if a man or a woman expresses their feelings for you, i agree with you there
I love that Eleanor made a genuine effort to explain the difference between genderfluid and non-binary, and as someone who identifies as both, It's very accurate!
Had this video on my watch later for a little while now and as someone who is also fluid and trans non-binary I couldn't agree more! Eleanor did amazing and was so respectful! Thank you so much for validating both identities; Kedarie and Kandicee in the video! May they rest in power!
hi, no hate at all but how can you be gender fluid and non binary? do you feel female one day, make the next and then don’t feel any gender some days? can you explain it to me please? :)
@@poppie188 Okay so I might be TOTALLY wrong and I hope one of the folks in the comments feels comfortable correcting me if I'm wrong! But I looked it up because I was also curious, and it makes a ton of sense when you read the definitions! Non-binary doesn't mean "genderless" as much as it means "does not associate as strictly male or strictly female." Gender fluidity varies in both identity and expression, so some people may express themselves fluidly while identifying as male or female. However, there are then folks like Kedarie, who sometimes feels male and sometimes feels female, and his identity changes on some days as well when he may feel extra feminine and identify as Kandice. PLEASE correct this if this is incorrect! You will not hurt my feelings lol.. Not looking to spread misinformation but I was curious myself and wanted to share what I found so we can hopefully all be more educated and inclusive.
@@averyrose2262 it’s ridiculous that we have to look up how someone identifies…. And there is still debate on what it means…. Like who the hell has time for all that?? It’s like people want others to be confused and then get mad when they don’t get it right….I feel people can do whatever they want unless they impede on someone’s else life.
I really love how you presented this case. You gave this young man respect. You gave the victim a voice. And you explained his sexuality in such a respectful way. You’re the best, Eleanor.
One thing I don’t understand is why people are homophobic/transphobic etc. Is it that hard to support people under any circumstances or be kind to people?
In my opinion a lot of times its cause their scared of their own feelings. They aren't able to live freely so they hate people who do. When you "come out" its cause u know exactly who u are. When u hate someone for how they live their life i think its cause their not living their true life.
I ask myself the same question every day.... I’m gender-fluid (they/them and he/they) and I’m questing my sexuality about liking men and I ask myself every. Single. Day.
Can we talk about Kedarie’s/Candance’s friend? She gave him/her one of her bras bc Candance didn’t have one. Bras can be expensive, but the fact that she supported her friend to gift one is such a pure act of kindness to me. Rest In Peace Kedarie. You will not be forgotten 🙏🏼
As someone with a bisexual daughter, this breaks my heart. Someone else’s sexuality/gender identity IS NOT ANYONE ELSES CONCERN OR BUSINESS. It doesn’t affect anyone else!!! Please raise your babies to love my babies ❤️❤️🏳️🌈
Nobody should give a shit if someone is queer. If it "goes against your religion", then just accept that not everyone has the same beliefs as you Also, if you say that we're "forcing it" and you shit on LGBT people for not being christian or any other religion, you're a hypocrite 100% love you and your daughter
Bless that momma. As a single mom I can't imagine just up and moving, that must have been so hard for her financially but she is one hell of a good mom to always put her kids happiness and safety first ❤ many mothers could learn from her.
Eleanor is such a beautiful person. Covering African American cases and ones in Lgbt 🏳️🌈 community . These cases need to be more known and brought to the public’s attention. There’s so many that go unsolved and cold. There’s one Kendall covered of an African American transgender I can’t remember the name atm but it’s still unsolved to this day and it kills me .
Hi btw I loved your comment but here's a tip for next time just for more education xx! I wanted to make it clear that African American isn't a synonym for black some people get it confused. Some black people aren't African American Xxxx
@@rachelle9518 thank you ! I actually do know that and shouldn’t of used that. At the time of typing that I felt like saying “black” was the wrong term to use idk why and that’s why I said African American but your absolutely correct . I think it goes back to when I was growing up and during THAT time of being corrected of not using the term black and using the term African American . But thank you I always trying to use the most respectful words possible because I would like people to do the same for me , what would be best for me to edit that to to be the most respectful ?
Honestly, I share many of her videos with my son. He came out to his dad and I two years ago, at age 15. The closer he gets to 18 and flying the coup, the more terrified I get, thinking of him out in this big, evil world :( Not everyone is willing to live and let live. I get scared of what could happen. I know I can't hover over him forever, but I want to share enough to keep him ultra alert, aware of the dangers that he may face. My son is amazing. His sexual orientation should not concern ANYONE else. He's not out there trying to "convert" anyone, he's just living his truth!
@@GenXfrom75 I know that it’s still scary and still a lot of people are judge mental and prejudice towards the lgbt community but I’m happy he is apart of a time and generation where it is much more acceptable and there is a HUGE community standing behind him in support.
I don’t really want to bring race into this but as a black person I honestly love the fact that his family supported him and just wanted him to be whoever made him the happiest. The love and care they had for him was amazing to hear, I know a lot of poc don’t get the support they should from their families .. Rest In Peace to that beautiful soul ❤️ Also the fact that the celebrated at his funeral the way they know he’d want them to and soooo many people showed up made me actually cry. Such a senseless evil thing to do for absolutely no reason at all, some people honestly disgust me.
i completely agree with your comment, its so sad that for once a person who fully is accepted by their family and has the chance to grow into a beautiful human full of love and happiness was taken from the world.
@Rochelle Gomez umm he was accepted by his white peers and the hate he got was from other POC. Privilege had nothing to do with this. He was murdered by Homophobic POC
As an Asian I agree, he deserved so much more, my family ignores my feelings and would probably kick me out if I was gay (I’m bi and will NEVER tell them) but I’m so glad he had that little support to be himself :(
@Cian MacGana No one is talking about death penalty. We are talking about a person murdering another person because of their sexuality. Respectfully, if you want to discuss death penalty and abortion, make a new comment so you can open up that discussion. Let’s not get sidetracked here.
when u described the state of the bag and how it had scratches... it broke my heart. the undeniable fact that kedarie was fighting and trying to escape is so heartbreaking. so cruel and disgusting people that exist.
This world sucks. Cases like these get put out of the spotlight way too fast, and that really doesn’t sit right with me. Everyone (excluding murderers and other disgusting humans) deserves a full life.
@@millie3milk808 your right, one way to contribute to these horrible issues is by sharing, no matter how disgusting it is the more you know the more you grow. Put a light on this horrible people who do horrible things. SHARE SO BEWARE BITCHES!!!!!
As a lesbian who has encountered homophobia, this is really disturbing to me. I don't understand why people are so hateful toward the LGBTQ+ community when our sexuality doesn't concern you at all 😶
Ikr? I'm also a lesbian and I personally don't have a problem with people not supporting the LGBT+ community. If someone doesn't support it, that's fine but actively discriminating against the LGBT+ community is just so disgusting.
the only time someone's sexuality concerns me is if I am looking at them as a potential partner, then it is "Hey, are you interested in dating" "yeah sure" or "no thanks I'm not into women" then it ceases to be my concern.
honestly the hate people get , at the end of the day love is love , love isnt gender based at all so why does it bother people , im bi and no one in my family knows because a lot of people dont understand i just hope one day even if its hundreds of years from now that people see lgbtq as normal and accept it
I genuinely will never be able to fully understand why some people think sexuality and ethnicity concern them. Ethnicity and sexuality is absolutely nobody’s concern and is never an issue, yet people try so hard to somehow make it an issue, specifically their unnecessary issue. 😐
Genuinely cried when you showed the clip of people dancing and clapping at his funeral. The impact he had on everyone is so beautiful. Kedarie seemed like such a sweet person, he was literally the main character. It's truly heartbreaking to see him go
i don't often cry at true crime cases, but I'm a lesbian and recently discovered that i am genderfluid (she/they) so this really affected me, i relate to kedarie a lot as i have experienced bullying due to my sexuality and kedarie sounds rather similar to me. rest in peace kedarie
@@Dobetter15 gender fluid is when their gender changes. It's a little different for each person thou as to how, why or when it changes and what it changes to ect....
me too, I made sure to leave a comment thanking her for doing that as I'm sure someone learned something today! She also did it very respectfully and I'm happy that she clarified that the definitions aren't 100% concrete :)
@Ana MX babe you are so uneducated its literally embarrassing i see you are not going to go and actually educate yourself so there is no point in anyone interacting with you.
@Ana MX gender and sex are not synonymous. In terms of language, they compliment each other because people have been using them incorrectly for a long time. Your reproductive organs may make your sex biologically "male" or "female". Just because you are born with these organs, doesn't mean you associate or identify with social gender norms. i.e. things we may now call sexist (boys like beers, cars and fighting vs girls like glitter, make up, cleaning). I think everyone deserves to like what they like and be whoever they want to be. Life is too short and humans are far too complex and interesting to be split into two categories and we should embrace individuals who truly love themselves. Respect and love those around you.
@@bubblesbop8245 it's really sad when people can't say, "thank you for educating me on a topic I realise I was being so ignorant about." and use that knowledge to better themselves, isn't it?
Its so heartbreaking that kedarie just wanted to be his/her self and that the whole family had even moved for kedaries safety and wellbeing and this still happened.. I just don't understand why people get so upset about someone else's gender and sexuality!?!? If you don't agree with someone for whatever reason just walk away you don't have to talk to them and if they try to talk to you all you have to say is that your not interested in speaking with that person ...I would much rather have someone tell me to my face that they don't like me so leave them alone then be murdered for something that really never affected them in the first place! I can't belive this happened in 2016 and is still happening now in 2021 its ridiculous. ..kedarie was just being him/her self being such a happy confident unique individual and kedarie didn't deserve such a brutal murder knowone does...Rip kedarie
Hey using they/them pronouns are usually most proper with gender fluid or nonbinary people highly recommend using they/them instead of (him/her) cause it doesnt come across the way you intended it and I feel like you didnt mean it in a rude way so thats probably a better way to go about talking about people just using they/them pronouns or just refer to the person by their name to avoid pronouns as well if that makes it easier for you.
There will unfortunately always be hateful people. And society has been in a mess about sexuality for hundreds of years (I blame the Dark Ages and Victorian "sensibilities" for a great deal of it). It will take much more time than only a few decades for human beings to truly understand that love is love. Too much work was put into the education of hate.
I will have to agree with this Before coming out as gay , even I was sort of weird thinking about homosexuality but education and self acceptance helped me a bunch And my brother on the other hand is still the same idiot😊
My father was raised to be severely racist and homophobic, but since I came out and he’s been exposed to other views, he’s become a strong ally. I just wish kids were raised to be accepting and choose their own views.
I knew what to expect going into this, yet when you said “it was 16 year old Kadari” I started crying. Just hearing you talk about him I could feel how beautiful his soul is. Rest In Peace love ❤️ we will never forget you
And the funeral! I don't know who the killer is yet, but I hope they saw all that love for him and realized their hate wasn't validated, it wasn't welcomed and no one agreed with it.
i absolutely love how Eleanor teaches us about the importance of sexuality and it’s different perspectives and corrects herself as she says something with no bad intentions
I’m so glad I was raised to see everyone as equal. Being gay shouldn’t be look at as “different”. Everyone has their own preferences, whether you’re gay or straight or anything in between
I’m a trans guy and Eleanor making this vid made me happy. Some people in this world are just terrible human beings. He/she was killed for being normal, it’s disgusting.
It’s actually really pathetic how many true crime channels I go to look at and there’s literally none, or extremely few, cases featuring BIPOC, especially since those are the cases that receive the least media coverage to begin with 😢
@@MiVidaBellisima i know its really upsetting to see 😔 but its people like Eleanor who are trying to stop that and spread the topic to all races and not just primarily white cases. that alone give me so much respect for her ❤️👑
@@sandrasteele976 well, first off, I was replying to the original poster's comment. I wasn't grouping anyone. If you read my comment, I said not just black, but he was gender fluid.
Kedarie was a beautiful person inside and out. My heart truly aches for what he had to endure. Some people are just monsters. Insecure and pathetic monsters.
Poor kedaires friend probably regrets his decline of walking with kedarie home that night with her dog. Kedarie probably didn’t go his/her usual way home to throw the car off or grabbed kedarie and brought him/her that way. I wanted to try to be as respectful to the lgbt 🏳️🌈 gender fluid community in this comment so if I didn’t do it properly please correct me !
I was thinking his mom probably regretted moving, but then again he could have easily been murdered in Chicago or anywhere. It’s kinda like moving a teen girl for getting targeted but then she gets raped. You have that risk just for being a woman. And apparently so do people like Kedaire. It’s not women or lgbt that need to change, it’s society. BUT DO protect yourselves. It’s not their fault.
this is one of the most heartbreaking cases I've ever listened to...his whole life taken away from him simply because someone didn't like how he was being himself...that's just heartless
As someone older gender fluid and non binary isn't something I grew up knowing about so it's nice to have someone explain without feeling like your rude or an idiot for not knowing in the first place. Thank you!!
@@rsukut5866 Thank you very much for your kind words! I'll be honest I don't understand or know a lot about these new and different terms but I'm learning bit by bit, and as long as the individual is happy and not causing any harm that's the main thing. Xxxxx
This breaks my heart, someone’s sexuality or race DOES NOT concern you. To this day in 2021 there are still people out there who kill and hate on people for their sexuality and race. What a horrible world we live in. May he/she Rest In Peace ❤️
OK but can we all just really appreciate that she took time to explain what these genders mean so nobody was confused, and she respectfully called him/her Off their gender by what day they wanted to be who and I think that’s really sweet and respectful!❤️
Imagine having such a miserable and uninteresting life that you have to focus and become obsessed with someone else’s sexuality. Imagine then going and murdering them for it too. I don’t fully support capital punishment, but hate crimes are a special kind of heinous.
His family, the photos, they way people talked about him and the way they attended his funeral...wow...what an impact he made on people and what a beautiful person. This is heartbreaking.
this made me cry. as somebody who has struggled with being gay, it means so much to me to hear about people like kedarie who were unapologetically themselves and didn't care what others thought of them. i find it so inspiring. rest in peace kedarie you beautiful person.
You using your platform to spread gender awareness is amazing. Not enough influencers or social media individuals use their platforms to inform others in issues like this. I have so much respect for you for this fact.
Half the people at that school made fun of them it’s a Burlington thing or sum if someone dies everyone knows them it’s sweet yes but a lot of people just wanted to do it for clout they had a more private wake thing with an open casket
Man seeing the funeral and the tone of it made me cry. Kedarie seemed so wonderful, and even though I didn’t know him, the world lost a little light...
I love how Eleanor uses these tragedies to educate (in this case about lgbtq+) as well as tell the story of the families life. Seemed like a beautiful family.
Are you kidding me? This makes me sick. Kedarie finally had found his/hers identity just to be killed because whoever had done it didn't agree with his/hers identity? Seriously disgusting condolences for the family can't imagine what they went through.
same! every parent should be like that. i will always accept my children for whoever they decide to be. and i will also teach them to respect other people who may not be the same as them.
The positivity that you give off even though its such a dark topic, is amazing. The way you explain gender fluidity and being non-binary is so clear and articulate. Love your videos,
This happened in my hometown, they still decorate the memorial where his/her body was found and the garage is painted there, thank you for sharing this tragedy, I’ve been watching you for almost two years. Kendarie was a such a beautiful soul and his/her story still haunts our town.
I think the police could have got info from the bleach bottle, like scanning the barcode of the bleach bottle and then finding where the bleach bottle was bought from (what store) then if the store has the cctv then they could see who bought it and find info from who bought it .
as a trans man myself this case effected me so much. my younger sibling is much like kedarie/candace and its horrible thinking that this could happen to either one of us
This horrific crime happened on my birthday. This is heartbreaking considering the day of March 2nd is so special to me. My soul aches for his family & for his friends. May he rest in peace. ❤️
i have to say that unfortunately when you’re a POC often your family can be quite unaccepting, despite this being such a sad story, it made me happy to see how supported kedarie was while he was alive.... his short life was filled with love, even as he dealt with such awful homophobia :(
i love how you’re so informative yet so respectful and you represent all the information in a way that’s so easy to understand also you are absolutely stunning and have the purest soul
I'm so glad that there's a content creator that promotes speaking up against violence/discrimination against minority groups even in true crime, I love your videos💕
I've lived in Iowa my whole life, and unfortunately there are still many people who just aren't accepting of us LGBTQ+ individuals. This case is heartbreaking
Been listening to the video and heard you talking about genderfluidity and i just wanted to clarify some things for people (since i myself am genderfluid) 1. Genderfluid people can very much be trans! Not all of us would medically transition (for one reason or another) but in my experience most genderfluid people do identify as trans and use this label for themselves. 2. Genderfluid people can use any pronouns for any amount of time and dont have to switch out the pronouns they use if they dont wanna. For example i use he / him pronouns almost all of the time and i sometimes use he / they 3. All genderfluid people have different experiences. Not all of us feel fully male or fully female on any given day (a lot of us tend to "swing" between being male / female and being neither and not just from fully male to fully female) I think your explanation was good but i just wanted to clear this stuff up to people who might be confused :)
BTW Eleanor, genderfluidity is actually under the term nonbinary, nb doesn't just mean you're they/them, it's an umbrella term that holds terms that aren't exclusively masculine nor feminine but can be grouped with either.
This case is from my home town!!! Seeing this brings me to tears, it was so emotional for the entire town when he was murdered and I wanna thank you for covering this case and not letting people forget
this case really touched me, he seemed like an incredible person with such a kind soul. rest in piece Kedarie, you are loved and missed by so so many people :(
The way you explained gender fluidity makes my soul happy. You have so much compassion in your heart. I live in a rural place and the most diversity i see is a man driving a Chevy instead of a Ford. I want to learn and be educated. This wonderful human did not deserve the cruelty he suffered.
Hi, as a non-binary person I love how you described all the terms. I love how you validated each persons gender identity and sexuality. Thank you for your videos as always

It’s so ignorant and selfish. So aggravating because they don’t have to worry about it daily so they can ignore it.

Well they're correct. There are plenty of people who don't care for homosexuality, but that isn't a condition requiring a term. Calling it a phobia is ridiculous. We don't call dislikes phobias.

Is SOOOOO horible and heartbreaking. I was on the verge of tears when I heard that. RIP
Kedarie was actually really supported in the town. Kedarie was a helper.
Me too. My heart actually ached at that part. I'm scared to finish the video
🤧
I swear to god
@Victoria Ganeva this one of the only cases that actually made me tear up. Especially because I’m gender fluid too, he didn’t deserve that...
This put me in tears. Someone’s sexuality has NOTHING to do another person. He was being himself. He was comfortable . He was happy with himself. Not many people are comfortable in their own body. What a miserable person someone has to be to torture & murder him! He didn’t deserve what happened AT ALL.
Exactly! As long as they're good people, it shouldn't matter who they are or who they identify as; live and let live and just get coexist!
SAME, I wish he was my friend
Exactly. It shouldn't concern you who the person loves because love is love. If I knew this guy and was his age, I would've loved to be friends with him. We probably would've gotten along great. I wish he would've been able to live his life and not having it end before he could've found someone who made him happy
@Mary Jones were you ok when you came out to the people you did!?
Hmmm, just to address a couple of comments I've seen accusing me of deleting some people's comments about this case - TH-cam actually holds your comment from being posted if it identifies that you've used hateful or threatening language in it.... Maybe that's why.
Also, while I'm here, I appreciate those of you that have commented to correct my description of gender fluidity/non binary/trans terms... You can do all the online research in the world, but nothing will teach you as well as an explanation coming from those people themselves - so thank you! I feel lucky to have such an understanding and polite audience - and I thank you all for being so kind with corrections as always Xx
You're deserving of kind audience! Maybe even a bigger one! This is definately the best true crime TH-cam channel I have seen and I am happy to be a subscriber!
This case was hard, but I loved how you held respect for the LGBTQ+ community and went through the trouble of explaining the terms and making sure they were understood.
💖thank you for covering this heartbreaking case Eleanor

the fact we have a poc & lgbtq member case has me with mixed feelings ): i’m happy we are covering these cases but it’s so upsetting these cases happen
I will never understand how people can kill someone for something as stupid as their sexuality, gender identity, race etc. like how can one person foster so much hatred.
Because they're uneducated, childish and pathetic. They can't take responsibility for their lives choices like an adult and change the way their life is going. Also meth.
Anti whiteism is supported, and promoted by Hollywood, and all media. So you tell me?
@@lapislazulii141 Don’t equate pro-poc to “anti whiteness”, silly. And “Hollywood” being pro-poc has nothing to do with bigoted & homicidal white people.

someone’s sexuality does not concern u
Lol. Yes. That part.
Someone’s gender also doesn’t concern anyone
EXACTLY! it is no one's business your sexuality and your gender. Just let people exist and vibe✨
I dont get why people are homophobic if you know your straight what is someone being gay gonna do to your straightness thats why i think homophobic men are closeted but are scared to come out because of this disgusting world we live in.
and gender.

I love that your doing more African American cases that don’t get enough coverage, thank u Elenor and happy black history month everybody
that's why i love Eleanor, shes so inclusive of everyone (:
So true I don't see a lot of true crime up here doing a broad range of cases it's always the same throughout them all.
Im not being rude but race doesnt matter
@@qtbubblez5803 it does in situations like this, quite often poc murders don’t get taken seriously or get solved because of the systemic racism. this means that when true crime youtubers cover cases like this, especially unsolved ones, it can bring these poc to justice. in this i’m not saying that cases involving white people always get solved or taken seriously i’m just saying that it is a very big and real issue in today’s world.
@@qtbubblez5803 it does especially as black people do not get a lot of coverage at all , so it does matter when someone is making a difference and actually including different races in their videos
I don’t get why people get so pissed when people are different from them. Like how am I affecting you because I’m gay? Why are you mad that I’m gay? How does it concern you?
Haters gonna hate
Also religion also has a big play in people’s beliefs of gay people which is just. Sad.
@@tammyferrer9946 i still don’t get why people use religion as an excuse for homophobia isn’t religion all about love and respect?
@@annamazule7882 I agree with you. Definitely not using it as an excuse
I can answer that question:
I didn't know that there were different sexuality or pronouns. When I did learn about it- many other kids has already had certain bias towards people who were associated with different sexuality. They were very mean and making mockery of them. It's gotten to a point where someone would be bullied and harassed for being different. I have gotten influenced and gotten the mentality being different was bad or forbidden. That continued for few years until I have learnt more about different sexuality and pronouns from my partner. My partner helped me see through that disgusting mentality and helped me realise that being apart of different sexuality does not mean something bad. I shouldn't discriminate someone because they have a different sexuality. Since then, I have been learning different sexuality and pronouns- I try to use the pronouns that makes an individual comfortable. I do not have any discriminatory thoughts towards someone of a different sexuality thanks to my partner. I will try to help others realise this as my partner helped me so there are less people to suffer through harassment/bullying for being different.
hearing about his mom’s reaction really got to me. that mother lost their baby. that is horrific and unfair :(
She lost her baby because some "person" didn't like Kedaries gender expression, as if it had anything to do them. People make me so mad 😒
I found her facebook. Damn she loves her children (as any mother should) She’s so strong. Along with his siblings. He was comfortable to be who he was at home & honestly not everyone in the community has the chance to do that. That alone boosts my respect for her by a million !!
I'm a 31 year old dude who makes and fills paint for a living at work. Every day (monday-friday 5am to 130 pm) I pop my headphones in, put my phone in my pocket and listen to these videos. Wanna say I appreciate you. You make my work day fly by. These two part videos last long enough to make my day a little easier.
Im a nurse and i work 12 hour shifts so when im doing paperwork or some kind of work that im not directly with pts o do the same thing. I turn on these videos and a few others and let them play while i work and it really does make the day go by faster.
I do this for my housework, it really does help
@@shazzmatazzgaming1488 same here I always have her on when I’m doing bits around the house
Her videos r chill n her voice is super calming
i really just don’t understand how people (especially men) get so angry when a gay and/or trans person says they like them like ??? how is that an insult to you ?? and if you think that’s weird or ruins your masculinity or whatever you have to get tf over yourself
If it were a girl who approached them and said they liked them but the feelings were not reciprocated they certainly would not punch her in the face for it. A reasonable person would be flattered, kindly say thank you but I do not feel that way, and move on. But no. People have to be violent and hateful because someone is different.
I was hit on by a lesbian. I was flattered, but I declined.
@@mango.ariyyy I think it's the first one most of the time. They don't want to be seen as gay themselves.
@@emileelamica7701 thats not true. "Ugly" girls most certainly would get shit too. I was kicked in the vagina for having a crush on someone in highschool. Like enough to bruise me. I still dont understand why anyone would react with violence if a man or a woman expresses their feelings for you, i agree with you there
Exactly u cud have simply IGNORED him! Turnt him down ! But beat him up?? Smells insecure abt ur own sexuality to me.
Imagine you're in high school and your crush doesn't just reject you but breaks your jaw.
Heartbreaking.
It's happened to straight people as well. But usually a girl will get another guy to do it for them. But yes its crushing regardless.
Yeah, it's not only fucked up, but it can be absolutely soul-destroying.
we've seen that happen in NYC
@@brycepriar3185 they never said that it doesn’t happen to straight people???
it's not only heartbreaking, it's also jaw breaking.
I love that Eleanor made a genuine effort to explain the difference between genderfluid and non-binary, and as someone who identifies as both, It's very accurate!
Had this video on my watch later for a little while now and as someone who is also fluid and trans non-binary I couldn't agree more! Eleanor did amazing and was so respectful! Thank you so much for validating both identities; Kedarie and Kandicee in the video! May they rest in power!
hi, no hate at all but how can you be gender fluid and non binary? do you feel female one day, make the next and then don’t feel any gender some days? can you explain it to me please? :)
I love gravity falls ♥ sorry but your username just made me smile cause its my son's favorite show lol
@@poppie188 Okay so I might be TOTALLY wrong and I hope one of the folks in the comments feels comfortable correcting me if I'm wrong! But I looked it up because I was also curious, and it makes a ton of sense when you read the definitions!
Non-binary doesn't mean "genderless" as much as it means "does not associate as strictly male or strictly female." Gender fluidity varies in both identity and expression, so some people may express themselves fluidly while identifying as male or female. However, there are then folks like Kedarie, who sometimes feels male and sometimes feels female, and his identity changes on some days as well when he may feel extra feminine and identify as Kandice.
PLEASE correct this if this is incorrect! You will not hurt my feelings lol.. Not looking to spread misinformation but I was curious myself and wanted to share what I found so we can hopefully all be more educated and inclusive.
@@averyrose2262 it’s ridiculous that we have to look up how someone identifies…. And there is still debate on what it means…. Like who the hell has time for all that?? It’s like people want others to be confused and then get mad when they don’t get it right….I feel people can do whatever they want unless they impede on someone’s else life.
I really love how you presented this case. You gave this young man respect. You gave the victim a voice. And you explained his sexuality in such a respectful way. You’re the best, Eleanor.
One thing I don’t understand is why people are homophobic/transphobic etc. Is it that hard to support people under any circumstances or be kind to people?
OMG IKR
In my opinion a lot of times its cause their scared of their own feelings. They aren't able to live freely so they hate people who do. When you "come out" its cause u know exactly who u are. When u hate someone for how they live their life i think its cause their not living their true life.
I ask myself the same question every day.... I’m gender-fluid (they/them and he/they) and I’m questing my sexuality about liking men and I ask myself every. Single. Day.
@Ana MX I have a question... do you support lgbtqia? Because I am getting mixed vibes
Religion.
Can we talk about Kedarie’s/Candance’s friend? She gave him/her one of her bras bc Candance didn’t have one. Bras can be expensive, but the fact that she supported her friend to gift one is such a pure act of kindness to me.
Rest In Peace Kedarie. You will not be forgotten 🙏🏼

Nobody should give a shit if someone is queer. If it "goes against your religion", then just accept that not everyone has the same beliefs as you

Eleanor is such a beautiful person. Covering African American cases and ones in Lgbt 🏳️🌈 community . These cases need to be more known and brought to the public’s attention. There’s so many that go unsolved and cold. There’s one Kendall covered of an African American transgender I can’t remember the name atm but it’s still unsolved to this day and it kills me .
Hi btw I loved your comment but here's a tip for next time just for more education xx!
I wanted to make it clear that African American isn't a synonym for black some people get it confused. Some black people aren't African American
Xxxx
@@rachelle9518 thank you ! I actually do know that and shouldn’t of used that. At the time of typing that I felt like saying “black” was the wrong term to use idk why and that’s why I said African American but your absolutely correct . I think it goes back to when I was growing up and during THAT time of being corrected of not using the term black and using the term African American . But thank you I always trying to use the most respectful words possible because I would like people to do the same for me , what would be best for me to edit that to to be the most respectful ?
Honestly, I share many of her videos with my son. He came out to his dad and I two years ago, at age 15. The closer he gets to 18 and flying the coup, the more terrified I get, thinking of him out in this big, evil world :( Not everyone is willing to live and let live. I get scared of what could happen. I know I can't hover over him forever, but I want to share enough to keep him ultra alert, aware of the dangers that he may face. My son is amazing. His sexual orientation should not concern ANYONE else. He's not out there trying to "convert" anyone, he's just living his truth!

We stan Eleanor here
I don’t really want to bring race into this but as a black person I honestly love the fact that his family supported him and just wanted him to be whoever made him the happiest. The love and care they had for him was amazing to hear, I know a lot of poc don’t get the support they should from their families .. Rest In Peace to that beautiful soul ❤️
Also the fact that the celebrated at his funeral the way they know he’d want them to and soooo many people showed up made me actually cry. Such a senseless evil thing to do for absolutely no reason at all, some people honestly disgust me.
i completely agree with your comment, its so sad that for once a person who fully is accepted by their family and has the chance to grow into a beautiful human full of love and happiness was taken from the world.
i agree, it’s not that often that i see poc families that are as supportive and accepting as his
definitely agree ! a lot of poc families do not accept this lifestyle
@Rochelle Gomez umm he was accepted by his white peers and the hate he got was from other POC. Privilege had nothing to do with this. He was murdered by Homophobic POC
As an Asian I agree, he deserved so much more, my family ignores my feelings and would probably kick me out if I was gay (I’m bi and will NEVER tell them) but I’m so glad he had that little support to be himself :(
Imagine not being okay with someone’s sexuality but being okay with murder?? Wtf???
!!
RIGHT.
Girlll exactlyyy??!!!!
@Cian MacGana No one is talking about death penalty. We are talking about a person murdering another person because of their sexuality.
Respectfully, if you want to discuss death penalty and abortion, make a new comment so you can open up that discussion.
Let’s not get sidetracked here.
@Cian MacGanaWhy are you talking about abortion when no one has brought it up and when you don't even have a uterus?
when u described the state of the bag and how it had scratches... it broke my heart. the undeniable fact that kedarie was fighting and trying to escape is so heartbreaking. so cruel and disgusting people that exist.

I really hate watching hate crime murders because it’s so sad and awful, but I want to contribute by bringing light to the cases.
This world sucks. Cases like these get put out of the spotlight way too fast, and that really doesn’t sit right with me. Everyone (excluding murderers and other disgusting humans) deserves a full life.

He was so sweet I miss him so much 🥺❤💔
As a lesbian who has encountered homophobia, this is really disturbing to me. I don't understand why people are so hateful toward the LGBTQ+ community when our sexuality doesn't concern you at all 😶
Ikr? I'm also a lesbian and I personally don't have a problem with people not supporting the LGBT+ community. If someone doesn't support it, that's fine but actively discriminating against the LGBT+ community is just so disgusting.
the only time someone's sexuality concerns me is if I am looking at them as a potential partner, then it is "Hey, are you interested in dating" "yeah sure" or "no thanks I'm not into women" then it ceases to be my concern.
honestly the hate people get , at the end of the day love is love , love isnt gender based at all so why does it bother people , im bi and no one in my family knows because a lot of people dont understand i just hope one day even if its hundreds of years from now that people see lgbtq as normal and accept it
I genuinely will never be able to fully understand why some people think sexuality and ethnicity concern them. Ethnicity and sexuality is absolutely nobody’s concern and is never an issue, yet people try so hard to somehow make it an issue, specifically their unnecessary issue. 😐

@Ana MX gender is a spectrum you where probably thinking about biological sex but even at that there is still more than two but go off i guess
@Ana MX babe you are so uneducated its literally embarrassing i see you are not going to go and actually educate yourself so there is no point in anyone interacting with you.
@Ana MX gender and sex are not synonymous. In terms of language, they compliment each other because people have been using them incorrectly for a long time. Your reproductive organs may make your sex biologically "male" or "female". Just because you are born with these organs, doesn't mean you associate or identify with social gender norms. i.e. things we may now call sexist (boys like beers, cars and fighting vs girls like glitter, make up, cleaning).
I think everyone deserves to like what they like and be whoever they want to be. Life is too short and humans are far too complex and interesting to be split into two categories and we should embrace individuals who truly love themselves. Respect and love those around you.
@@bubblesbop8245 it's really sad when people can't say, "thank you for educating me on a topic I realise I was being so ignorant about." and use that knowledge to better themselves, isn't it?
Its so heartbreaking that kedarie just wanted to be his/her self and that the whole family had even moved for kedaries safety and wellbeing and this still happened.. I just don't understand why people get so upset about someone else's gender and sexuality!?!? If you don't agree with someone for whatever reason just walk away you don't have to talk to them and if they try to talk to you all you have to say is that your not interested in speaking with that person ...I would much rather have someone tell me to my face that they don't like me so leave them alone then be murdered for something that really never affected them in the first place! I can't belive this happened in 2016 and is still happening now in 2021 its ridiculous. ..kedarie was just being him/her self being such a happy confident unique individual and kedarie didn't deserve such a brutal murder knowone does...Rip kedarie
@@GamingNat just as bad as saying "shim"
@@micheller2283 what how is saying them as bad as saying shim, please elaborate
Hey using they/them pronouns are usually most proper with gender fluid or nonbinary people highly recommend using they/them instead of (him/her) cause it doesnt come across the way you intended it and I feel like you didnt mean it in a rude way so thats probably a better way to go about talking about people just using they/them pronouns or just refer to the person by their name to avoid pronouns as well if that makes it easier for you.
There will unfortunately always be hateful people. And society has been in a mess about sexuality for hundreds of years (I blame the Dark Ages and Victorian "sensibilities" for a great deal of it). It will take much more time than only a few decades for human beings to truly understand that love is love. Too much work was put into the education of hate.
@@karma901 they're saying "shim" Is as bad as she/he not they
As a gay person myself I want to add that children aren't homophobic, they are raised homophobic! That's a hug difference! And also the problem.....
This is an important distinction!
And if not raised influenced
I will have to agree with this
Before coming out as gay , even I was sort of weird thinking about homosexuality but education and self acceptance helped me a bunch
And my brother on the other hand is still the same idiot😊
Yes, racism and homophobia is taught
My father was raised to be severely racist and homophobic, but since I came out and he’s been exposed to other views, he’s become a strong ally. I just wish kids were raised to be accepting and choose their own views.

As a mother of someone who is much like that sweet child, this case absolutely breaks my heart and scares me to death. Just devastating. 💔
This breaks my heart, someone’s sexuality or race DOES NOT concern you. To this day in 2021 there are still people out there who kill and hate on people for their sexuality and race. What a horrible world we live in.
May he/she Rest In Peace ❤️
OK but can we all just really appreciate that she took time to explain what these genders mean so nobody was confused, and she respectfully called him/her Off their gender by what day they wanted to be who and I think that’s really sweet and respectful!❤️
No😂😂😂
@@venessam4907 yes
This!!
Imagine having such a miserable and uninteresting life that you have to focus and become obsessed with someone else’s sexuality. Imagine then going and murdering them for it too. I don’t fully support capital punishment, but hate crimes are a special kind of heinous.
His family, the photos, they way people talked about him and the way they attended his funeral...wow...what an impact he made on people and what a beautiful person. This is heartbreaking.
this made me cry. as somebody who has struggled with being gay, it means so much to me to hear about people like kedarie who were unapologetically themselves and didn't care what others thought of them. i find it so inspiring. rest in peace kedarie you beautiful person.
Her understanding of gender terms makes me feel very comfortable and special.
I can't begin to imagine the pain a family this close feels
Kedarie's family is such a great example of how easy it is to just support your LBGT+ family members.
Only people who know that she put this video on private can like
yup
HAHA SAME
YEP-
I was soo confused lol
Me lol
As another genderfluid, it really means a lot that you’ve covered this case :) thank you
oh hey! i found a fellow genderfluid :)
Hello fellow genderfluid human! ❤
You using your platform to spread gender awareness is amazing. Not enough influencers or social media individuals use their platforms to inform others in issues like this. I have so much respect for you for this fact.
Man, talking about that funeral had me welling up. How loved Kedarie was.
I was just gonna say.. 😭💜
Half the people at that school made fun of them it’s a Burlington thing or sum if someone dies everyone knows them it’s sweet yes but a lot of people just wanted to do it for clout they had a more private wake thing with an open casket
Man seeing the funeral and the tone of it made me cry. Kedarie seemed so wonderful, and even though I didn’t know him, the world lost a little light...
Still not sure why you haven’t been offered a podcast on Spotify. You deserve a hella deal, I wouldn’t miss this opportunity if iwu Spotify!
He seemed like a such a lovable person.... who needed love more than ever, but the world is so cold and evil
I love how Eleanor uses these tragedies to educate (in this case about lgbtq+) as well as tell the story of the families life. Seemed like a beautiful family.
Are you kidding me? This makes me sick.
Kedarie finally had found his/hers identity just to be killed because whoever had done it didn't agree with his/hers identity? Seriously disgusting condolences for the family can't imagine what they went through.
I think they were gay too. They found two used condoms at the house of the killers.
I love how his family and especially his mother was so supportive.
same! every parent should be like that. i will always accept my children for whoever they decide to be. and i will also teach them to respect other people who may not be the same as them.
When Eleanor was talking about the funeral I just wanted to cry
The positivity that you give off even though its such a dark topic, is amazing. The way you explain gender fluidity and being non-binary is so clear and articulate. Love your videos,
This happened in my hometown, they still decorate the memorial where his/her body was found and the garage is painted there, thank you for sharing this tragedy, I’ve been watching you for almost two years. Kendarie was a such a beautiful soul and his/her story still haunts our town.
I think the police could have got info from the bleach bottle, like scanning the barcode of the bleach bottle and then finding where the bleach bottle was bought from (what store) then if the store has the cctv then they could see who bought it and find info from who bought it .
Same thing I was thinking like no fingerprints on the bottle and I know somebody know what happened 😕
as someone from burlington, it's so nice to see bigger channels covering this case. i was so happy to see you post this video. thank you so much.
as a trans man myself this case effected me so much. my younger sibling is much like kedarie/candace and its horrible thinking that this could happen to either one of us
😂😂🤡
Ignore the first comment, 🏳️⚧️ I hope you are doing well 😊
Same for me. I live in the middle of nowhere, just scraping the Bible Belt.
Solidarity to all my lgbt siblings ✊🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
This horrific crime happened on my birthday. This is heartbreaking considering the day of March 2nd is so special to me. My soul aches for his family & for his friends. May he rest in peace. ❤️
same my birthday is march 2nd my heart skipped a few beats ugh
@@girlhuh4318 It's just so sad that such a happy day for some is such a tragic day for others.
i have to say that unfortunately when you’re a POC often your family can be quite unaccepting, despite this being such a sad story, it made me happy to see how supported kedarie was while he was alive.... his short life was filled with love, even as he dealt with such awful homophobia :(
i love how you’re so informative yet so respectful and you represent all the information in a way that’s so easy to understand also you are absolutely stunning and have the purest soul
I'm so glad that there's a content creator that promotes speaking up against violence/discrimination against minority groups even in true crime, I love your videos💕
I've lived in Iowa my whole life, and unfortunately there are still many people who just aren't accepting of us LGBTQ+ individuals. This case is heartbreaking
The murderers werent from Iowa
I love the pronoun and gender lesson in the middle, she did a really well job of articulating and explaining the differences
Been listening to the video and heard you talking about genderfluidity and i just wanted to clarify some things for people (since i myself am genderfluid)
1. Genderfluid people can very much be trans! Not all of us would medically transition (for one reason or another) but in my experience most genderfluid people do identify as trans and use this label for themselves.
2. Genderfluid people can use any pronouns for any amount of time and dont have to switch out the pronouns they use if they dont wanna. For example i use he / him pronouns almost all of the time and i sometimes use he / they
3. All genderfluid people have different experiences. Not all of us feel fully male or fully female on any given day (a lot of us tend to "swing" between being male / female and being neither and not just from fully male to fully female)
I think your explanation was good but i just wanted to clear this stuff up to people who might be confused :)
fantastic explanation!!
@@mikahwber Im glad it helped out!!
Thank you for explaining further, helped me to educate myself! :)
Thank you for educating us :)
@@Emilyfrst im glad i could help! If you have any other questions please feel free to ask :)
BTW Eleanor, genderfluidity is actually under the term nonbinary, nb doesn't just mean you're they/them, it's an umbrella term that holds terms that aren't exclusively masculine nor feminine but can be grouped with either.
This is heart breaking. How often does a whole high school embrace a student, an LGBTQ+ student, a black student. He was so loved.
This case is from my home town!!! Seeing this brings me to tears, it was so emotional for the entire town when he was murdered and I wanna thank you for covering this case and not letting people forget
this case really touched me, he seemed like an incredible person with such a kind soul. rest in piece Kedarie, you are loved and missed by so so many people :(
The way you explained gender fluidity makes my soul happy. You have so much compassion in your heart. I live in a rural place and the most diversity i see is a man driving a Chevy instead of a Ford. I want to learn and be educated. This wonderful human did not deserve the cruelty he suffered.
😂😂😂😂
This is one of the cases that got me in tears, this is horrible oh my god
Hi, as a non-binary person I love how you described all the terms. I love how you validated each persons gender identity and sexuality. Thank you for your videos as always
