I simply can’t comprehend that you were completely abandoned by your mother’s family over such a ridiculous & shallow reason that you had no control over. Especially given the fact that you were responsible for your father’s arrest and imprisonment! As a mom, I want you to know that YOU are your mom’s savior and her hero, and that’s what her family should have focused on! I also have to share how proud I am of you; you not only fought for your mom, you also learned an incredibly difficult lesson which is forgiveness is for your own well-being. As someone who carried a deep anger at my mom for years, you have spared yourself years of misery! I wish you all the best; you are an incredible & inspiring man!💞
& the craziest thing is ur the spiting imagine of ur mother.....
He don't look like his dad either! He's got his mama's eyes and he's got dark hair. Her family just didn't want to take care of him because it was hard for them to see HER in him and not be able to have her too, selfish assholes! So they let the Foster system beat that poor boy to death after he'd already been abused by his father. If it wasn't for their daughter teaching him the right way nobody would have got Justice for her. Ugh people infuriate me!
@@willow_jayde Ditto! I’m 65, and it’s devastating to realize that we, as a “civilized society,” are regressing! It’s like we haven’t learned anything from the terrible mistakes we’ve made & the terrible events we’ve experienced! I’m truly worried for my children and grandchildren!
It's true
Pulled the thought straight from my head. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The fact that Both sides of his cruel family left him to the system is beyond me! Horrible people.
That man is too good, what he was exposed and confronted with. Very disturbing if adults in his family not there when he needed them. That person whom he calls a father, I would not want a father like him. Horrid person and his Flossie.
Maybe they are not cruel, maybe he is the monster.
@@rjj9930 Maybe he is the monster? can you please explain that comment, you saying Collier is the monster? if so, are you kidding me.
@@lifechanges557 We just have one side of the story, so I just wanted to keep an open mind and not make an opinion just because he is a kid
@@rjj9930 He was a kid; he isn't anymore.
But every kid that lost her/his mom so tragically should deserve a little empathy.
Your mother sounded like a very strong woman, you've made her proud!
I think your mother would be unbelievably proud that you became such a man of integrity and it started at such a young age
Wow … his mothers side KNEW she adored and loved him so much and they failed him smh they should be ashamed and they clearly didn’t love her.. idk how people like that sleep at night
What an absolute WARRIOR. this man is incredibly strong.
Whats even more astonishing is he was strong as a BOY
His mother would be very disappointed in her family for abandoning her baby boy like that...
His mom was a beauty and truly loved her son.
I remember watching you testify on TV, and thinking what a strong young man you were. I was so glad I ran across your story today, and get to see you as a grown man speaking about the incident. I am sure your mom is very proud of you.
Collier, I've watched your Dr. Phil segment, and I think you have the heart of a lion. In tragic circumstances, you rose out of the ashes like a mythical phoenix. Thank you for solving your mother's untimely murder. May God bless and keep you all the days of your life!
AMEN 🙏
Ameen
I think your mom would be so very proud of you. Rest in peace to her.
I remember when this happened. I remember thinking how brave he was to get on the stand and tell the story and how articulate he was. I am so sad to hear that neither family wanted him. They hurts my heart. I would do anything for my nieces and nephews, especially under such circumstances. I would have immediately gotten that child and never let him go. I will have to listen to his podcast. He is a bigger person than I that he can forgive his father.
from arrested development is a quote of you forget but never forgive which is the opposite of conventional therapy but it does feel good to me and please no offense 😢
What a brave young boy you were. Even after so much psychological abuse and fear you had the courage to go against that killer. You are a hero Collier and don't you ever forget that.
That comment about being homeless under a bridge, that hit home. I got that a lot growing up, as well. Even now. When people know what I've been through, they ask why I'm not a drug addict or something. It's weird for people to assume that people who have been through awful things must not be capable of healing and transcending their experiences.
I feel I really like this guy. He's got such an aura around himself that transpires even throuh a video screen. I can see how her mother teachings and nurture served him well in his life. He is a really an admirable and inspiring person.
It’s his eyes lol
@@badgirlhollywood9741 it's what he says and how he says it... People give out a certain type of energy which you can't "put a finger on it," but you can feel it... And so, yes, people also communicate through their eyes. 80% of all human interactions aka human communication is done through body language or non verbal means....
I remember this story very well. The murderer buried her in a new home he had bought with his mistress. And I remember how incredibly proud I was of the son for testifying against his father. He was very smart and articulate then, and still is. So sorry your family abandoned you, but I'm glad you're doing well.
omg his mother was gorgeous.
I heard some of your story on TikTok. I'm so sorry you had to go through this growing up. Your mom would be proud of you for speaking up.
Thank you Francis!
@@collierlandry You're welcome.
You're your mother's son; good on you for standing up for her to get justice.
I watched your narration on TT. All your surviving adults failed you. I am so angry for young Collier I could scream, though you seem to have come out the other side with resolve and purpose. May your mother's memory be a blessing and comfort to you.
You could definitely tell just from the witness stand that you were well behaved, intelligent, articulate and very brave at such a young age! Your Mom did a great job! I’m so sorry she was taken from you❤️
You’re mother was beautiful!!!
You were such a brave child. Your mother would be proud 💜
I hate how his family and his community abandoned him.
This guy is a TRUE WARRIOR You are inspiration and I bet your mom is DAMN PROUD OF YOU!!
Your MOTHER’S family turned your back on you too!???????? 😰💔 Omg….
What a beautiful tribute to your mother. Both in telling your story and how you live your life. Very inspiring ❤
Your mother was beautiful inside and out. I’m sorry this happened to you
That detective has my respect. He believed you, and he trusted you like you trusted him. I am so sorry about everything that happened to you. Your toxic ass family sucks and your mother will never forgive them for that. Much love to you ❤❤❤❤
Your mother was lovely. I'm sorry you lost her.
I had a ridiculously complicated upbringing, however it doesn't even come close to what you've endured and I don't know how you do it!
I've always said that God took care of me throughout my life even when I was unaware . I believe that for you as well. I heard you say once in another podcast that you are grateful and lucky and blessed which is profound but I do understand that.
Please take care of yourself and understand that even though you were abandoned there are people out here who hear your story and hold you in our hearts and pray for you so even though you don't always see us we are here. God Bless!
Mistakes are one thing but murder is forever
You were something else as a child😂 no one could tell you differently I love your perseverance and tenacity!
Definitely make a movie about this Coliar!
What an incredible human being you are! To practically solve your mom’s murder as a child, testify against your father, be abandoned by the rest of your family, forgive your father, and find a way to help others heal, you’ve transcended your past in a way that would make your mom proud every day.
Hi Collier
I watched your testimony and you are such a Regulator - even at 11!
I’m so sorry you have lost so much, including your beloved dog .
I wish you continued Indomitable spirit, Conspicuous gallantry and Undaunted bravery.
Godspeed to you my friend .

He has his mothers eyes, so beautiful.
I remember seeing you on tv testifying against your father. You have come a long way. Your mothers love made you the person you are today. I wish you all the best.
I lost both my sons, the journey is hard, you are doing amazing work
How tf could so many adults have failed you? I wish them all the karma they deserve for having done that.
It is a very disturbing story. I wonder where is his sister now.
T.Y...for sharing ur sad 😔 😟 🙁 😥 😞 story...Collier....but I cant believe u..You so grown up..... Then to now..
Your mother was stunning and you got her beautiful eyes. I wish she was still here with you..❤
I can't imagine the range of emotions that you felt, and maybe still feel. Thank you for telling your story.
Sorry to just learned this tragedy and thank you for sharing the story. I think your mother is proud of you. Your courage and bravery is your mom living in you. God bless you
Your mom is so proud, strong human
He has so much dignity it amazes me . Even one someone said how his father was an amazing doctor. He still keep .amazingly. x composed
My heart aches for him. He was a brave kid and now he is spreading positivity and try to help others feel good. I am glad there is so much support for him and from the deep of my heart I wish he will live happily surrounded by caring people that make him forget his pain.
Wow your a true survivor and an extraordinary one to boot! Shame on your Mums family
A Father is a _Title of HONOR_ given to ONE who would never bring Spiritual, Physical and Emotional HARM to their offspring, DADS HOWEVER DO! He was simply your DAD!
Shame what lufe throws at you and how the ones thats meant to look out for you turn their backs on you. If I take nothing away from this, I take away forgiveness... that's stopped me from truly moving past my own trauma, so thank you for that.
Ps - what happened to your sister?
I'm soo soo sad to hear about your beautiful mom I pray you let God help you this horrible ordeal be blessed 🙌 😇 💔💔💔
You were such an Amazing Bright young kid! I know your mom was with you during that time. Man your Amazing for the way you grew up to be. God Bless you!!!
Shame on both side of the family for not taking an innocent child in. Shame on them! I hope they read this.
I heartbreakingly understand the way of a mother shielding her child(ren) from the things their father was doing because I have been there. It's a horrible situation. I can see that your mother was a very strong woman. You look so much like her. Much 💙 always!! Xo
With Narc/negligent family members who abuse and betray their own children/siblings for as long as they are allowed, it's always good to move away and meet people who like you for you and not let any familial voices bring us down...
God bless you..what a sad & horrible story..hope your life is now blessed & full of joy🖤
Hats off to your Courage. God bless you.
Please take care of yourself. Reliving this over and over has to play on your psyche.
You are a very special and inspirational man. May God Bless and Protect You Forever. Your mom is looking down from Heaven and is so proud of you.
You look so like your mother ! ❤️🏴
Wow! What a heart wrenching story!it’s almost a Joseph (in the Bible) story!
You are strong!
Your mother is beautiful and strong as well!
I’m so sorry you had to go through all this trauma!
Some times we can’t explain evil acts of sin.
Lucifer was perfect but that wasn’t good enough for him as he originated evil!
Praise the Lord God has made you strong and good!
God has Big plans for you!🙏🏻
Pray and God will reveal them to you!🙏🏻
Keep strong and keep looking up!🙏🏻
I’ll pray for you too🙏🏻
Your insights, values, and actions speak to how much your mother loved you and how well she prepared you for something neither of you could ever have imagined. God bless you and your work. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Wow, so sorry...you're so brave! God bless you 💝
I wish I could talk to you...my stepfather killed my mother, everyone abandoned me for knowing this and speaking out.
i do understand what having a raging dad is like and you are a great inspiration and i hope that your trama fully healed
Your mother was a beautiful woman. R.I.P.
You are amazing. You honored your mom by being so brave and I know that had to have been scary to face the person that was supposed to protect you instead he took your mom away. But you had the strength to stand up for you and for her. I truly pray that you have the very best life, filled with love and happiness. ❤️🙏
I’m so very sorry you lost your lovely mother in that horrible way. She sounds like the best person ever
🙏💖🫶💖🙏
I do remember this hole horrible event that happened GOD BLESS YOU s0 sorry for your loss 😢😢😢❤❤❤❤
Very smart and strong kid
Your mother is proud. You were amazingly smart for that age. You solved your mothers murder. Incredible.
I’m so proud of the way you were able to do what you did despite your age. What you went through was horrific and I’m glad that you knew what you had to do and followed through with it so that you would be able to survive. Thank you for helping others heal. After having dealt with a situation where I had to deal with a dangerous narcissist and had that moment of realizing I needed to escape that relationship I know how important it is to listen to that inner voice and follow it.
I’m glad people like you for you! You are a kind n giving soul! ❤
Thank you for sharing your experiences. ❤
Blessings to you. You are amazing and use your trauma to help others heal. Your message of forgiveness is so powerful.❤
I remember your testimony (I’m that old) and…..you are an inspiration!!!
Wow!!! For such a young....and traumatized boy, you were SO brave! I am super impressed but so sorry you had to go thru all this.
She was/is a really beautiful woman! ❤❤
Thank you for sharing your story. Your mum must be so proud watching over you. Love your channel
What an incredible person! I wish you all the greatest! And your mom and her spirit live with you every day. ❤️
WoW !!!! You’re incredible !!! What a joy for any mother…to hear/see/feel this 😊⭐️🧡🌈🌻 Thank you. For being who you are ♥️
So complicated to have a parent capable of such heinous activity. I grew up with a father like that. I don't know of any murders but he did damage to a large range of people, both physically and emotionally, starting from my mom and 10 sibs. Forgiving him was the best thing I ever did and I did it early. Doesn't mean anger doesn't show up from time to time when a new crime is exposed. It takes forgiving as a lifestyle.
My heart breaks for the death of mom and your immense loss. You are amazing! ❤
Wow Collier. Thank you for sharing your story. Incredibly well spoken and your self-awareness has brought you through the hardest moments of your journey so far.
What a terrible family to be from both sides abandoning you wow unheard of o
Wow I’m so sorry you went thru this in your life but I’m so happy you didn’t give up that you stayed positive god bless you !!
You're an amazing human being Collier! Thank you for sharing your story and glad to hear you chose to live your life the best way you made it become!
Wow you are such an old soul when you were going through that horrible time of your life. Your mother is extremely proud of you!
This is your souls plan.. to help others who are not as strong as you and need to have hope and peace in their hearts. That is why you had to go through your childhood loses.
You are definitely an inspiration!
God out you here for a reason and you are sure doing what your soul needs for it’s enteral journey.
Thank you
Just watched your documentary. I can't believe I haven't seen your case before. Especially since I was raised in Marion, Ohio my whole life and I know thats where he is incarcerated. You were so brave and intelligent at 12. Sorry all your family abandoned you but happy to know you still had many people supporting you.
I really really admire you. The way you behaved despite your age was so clever.. and your psychological strength to survive that horrible situation... It's awesome... I'm really sorry for all you were going through because you didn't deserve it. I can't understand none of your families, I really think both were negligent.. You don't put your father in jail HE HAS TO PAY HIS CONSEQUENCES FOR WHAT HE DID, and what about the sentence "you remind us your father"... you were the only one who honored and made justice for your mother not even her family... I know I don't know you, or your mother, but I'm really sure that she would be really dissapointed with her family for sending you to SS. Your mom's family not only failed you but also your mother.... You don't have to prove anything, you were just a child in a horrible and cruel situation, you did A LOT for a child, you had the behavior of an adult, and that's not the reason why I admire you, because that was really unfair, all that you did, it's what your mom's family had to do, not you. You needed protection. I admire you because you have an special strength, and I can see this by the way you talk. Believe me when I say that we aren't see the situation, we are seeing you!!. Don't know if you forgave your father or your families, but I hope you made the decision that made you happiest. You deserve it.❤
Your mother was beautiful. Her face had such a sweetness. 🥲🥲🥲 She must have been wise and had true insight to help make you so strong. Your love for her must have been great to make you stick it out to honor her. In a very real way, your life right now is still honoring your mother.
Thank you for sharing your story. You're absolutely inspiring. Subscribed.
Wow you are my inspiration you were a little child and going through so so much, Bunch of demons both families that abandoned you when you most needed it them. May your mother Rest In Peace and I know that she has been looking out for you from heaven because you became such a beautiful soul. GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS.
I think it speaks to you being a incredible person both turning your father in and continuing to fight to make sure that he was prosecuted for your mother's murder and not letting who he was and what he did identify with who you were and who you became
I like the life that you have cultivated and created. Excellent work!
I remember this story like yesterday, i remember seeing Collier on forensic files as a child, his mother was beautiful!!
You did the right thing and may have saved other people’s lives! You are the best son a mother can have! Your love for her is eternal! She instilled the best values in you as a human being.
👏👏👏 amazing soul!
I am listening to your story you are a very strong person I'm sorry your family turned their back on you.Thank you for helping others move on from their past pain of trama survivor's.Pluss maybe you looked like your father when you were young ,but now you look more like your mother.Im sure she is very proud of you and watching over you in heaven she raised a strong smart person.Who truly loved his mother.All she wanted was for you raise you and keep you safe from your fathers betrayal of adultery.She didn't want his lifestyle to affect you.Thank you to you mother for teaching youhow to stand up for the truth no matter what anyone thinks.
You are a legend, Collier, a real-life legend. I saw this on various TV true crime shows and videos, and repeatedly did so. I always wondered what became of you, and what your mother would think of you now. And also wondered if your experience with your father made you better, or bitter. I grieved that this young boy, who had every reason to quit, just pursued the truth until he finally proved it in a court of law, achieving justice for his mom and in doing so, saved his own life. In your eleven years you accomplished what many grown-ups never do: you faced your monsters, without showing fear when the moment of confrontation was upon you. Now I've seen this video, and I know that you've grown and become strong because of your experience.
And I now know, without question, that your mom must love you all the more, and that she couldn't be more proud of you.
God bless you on the rest of your journey, and honor His Son all of your days.
Bless your spirit 🎉 and what a beautiful unique name Collier
