🔴 NOTE FROM SISTER VANESSA (from Find a Grave):
August, my heart is always extra heavy when you come around.. 19 year's ago today our lives took a devastating turn.. A turn that could of ruined us mentally and emotionally as a family. A day that my Siblings and I were meant to expire and draw our final breaths. A day that we as a family will never ever forget.. Although 3 out of the 5 of us survived that day, we continue to ache deeply from the open wounds our heart's endured that day when we found out we lost two of our very own.. The ache is still very fresh and very real, the back flashes are still a reoccurring reminder of the nightmare we endeavored that day. With each new day we wake only to realize it wasn't a nightmare it was indeed reality. A reality that we've had to relive daily for the past 19 year's.. A day that we weren't meant to survive, but God.....He had far greater plan's!!! He orchestrated every escape route, every diversion, every decision, every thought, every single STEP that day!!!
What complete destruction one individual desired to inflict upon us God, turned around and held us up then and He continues to do the very same today!! My heart is extra heavy this month because yes I miss Ashley, and John William, desperately with everything in me but my heart is also heavy for that man's loss. He lost everything that day..
We lost Ashley, & John, that day but we know we will see them again!! We didn't lose, we have victory in Christ, because Heaven is our goal!! I just want to serve as a reminder that God, is faithful in every situation and He is good at all time's and He will see you through whatever battles you're facing, He is so so good!! Our story may have you asking why this had to happen and truth is I don't know the answer but I do know and believe that God, has a purpose and a perfect plan for EVERYTHING we go through and there is not a step that we take that He doesn't know about.. Live your life with a purpose and live it all for His glory!
I'm thankful Ashley, gave her all for me that day and she didn't hesitate for even half a second and even in all the pain she was enduring she never once beckoned to me for help instead she willingly and forcefully told me to "GO....." She gave her all and fought till she couldn't fight any longer.. The very least that I can do is live with a vision and a goal so clear that even my worst of fears become irrelevant..Thank you Lord, for your hand of protection and guidance throughout the hardest time of my life, you've been so so good to me! Thank you will never be adequate enough Ashley, for giving your life for me 19 year's ago on that Wednesday, morning, thank you for loving me enough to say "GO" despite your pain and the suffering you endured! That day you taught me the true meaning of an unselfish sacrifice.. Thank you!
Till we meet again I'll keep on telling your story!I love you forever and always Ashley & John William ❤
Forever Your Sister Nessa. Xoxo~

The last plaque with just butterflies on it was a memorial for twin babies the mom lost on August 1, 2001. It said we never held you but we loved you. Another heartbreaking loss for this family.
Ashley was such a a fighter and a protector i know they are resting easy now watching over their family
Thank you Ron for telling this tragic story. I suppose one could say that at least the family did not have to go through a trial, but how the parents coped with knowing this monster must have been watching for them to leave, and then murdered and traumatised their children is beyond imagining. The pain for the surviving family will go on for generations, it does not stop. I wonder if they have moved away from the area, and that is why there are no flowers.
I have read all of Vanessa's words, and how she is rooted in her faith that they are victorious and her generosity to the murderer. His actions must have also affected his children, and how do you forgive a person such as he. Truly, the devil incarnate!
How very, very sad. Thank you for shining light on this story, Ron❤️
You’re a great storyteller… stories we need to hear to honor victims. Thank you for what you do 💕
Poor Ashley and John what a horrific story. Thank you Ron for remembering these poor kids .💔💔💔
thank you Ron - truly these lives will not be forgotten. In 1964 I was visiting my grandparents as I was a teen and in their attic came across a shoebox of old photos - some of which were of a WWI Doughboy. His eyes caught me and had a spiritual experience in which in my spirit he asked me not to let him be forgotten. I spent most of my adult life doing - researching all about the Battle of the Meuse-Argonne Offensive in France and finding his resting place in the National Cemetery. I have spent so much time with him that when I close my eyes to this world, I pray to open them to see his face in the Presence of our Savior in the next. God bless you and your family.
Thank you Ron for remembering these two children.
What a horrible story.
Vanessa ‘s heartfelt words in the description. I am without words after reading it.
How can a person even do that to little children??! So disgusting! Thanks for telling their story, Ron! 😭😭
Hi Ron...a very sad and tragic story of two little kids. RIP to them. Ashley was very brave and a hero to save her sisters . Both the kids are now in Heaven. So sad for the parents and sisters left behind to live without their siblings and children. Thanks for sharing this story . So glad the police arrived to save the sisters and took care of the killer. .... Deborah 🇨🇦🙏❤️
This is a very sad and tragic story. I am shocked and can't understand how a family puts the pieces back together to carry on after this. Im so sorry for their loss. Its a tearful reminder of the evil that exists in the world we live in. Ashley and William, may you rest in peace. 😢🙏 ⚘️
OMG. Poor Ashley...and the other children.
So very brave for such a little girl. Two sweet angels.
Haven't heard of this case before.Sounds extremely tragic but I intend to check it out in a few.Stay safe out there,Ron.
Thank you Ron for sharing this story. Merced is my hometown! I remember this and I was about 15 years old when this happened. It was both devastating and tragic being from a small city. It shook the entire city! Rip to these two sweet angels, they are in heaven where love is all they have!
Sounds Like Ashley Was. Hero!
Poor babies. ❤ May their memories be eternal 🙏🏼
Oh my goodness. That man was pure evil!! Never heard this story before 😮 heartbreaking what this man did!! Rest in peace to little Ashley and John.😢😢🙏🏽🙏🏽 thank you for remembering them, and I agree our laws need to change.
This story is so terrible and scary and I marvel that I had never heard it before. I notice that Ashley was a Scorpio; they’re like that. She truly was extraordinary and the little boy was adorable. This story was a fantastic choice because, after we learn of the horror, we also learn that the siblings always will thankfully revere the memory of Ashley and John. Thanks for telling us about this tragedy.
My goodness. Just heart-wrenching. I'm so proud of you for finding that grave. Thank you for sharing this story. God bless and protect the Carpenter family, and may their healing continue. We'll never forget what they went through, now that we know. Dear God, help them heal, and bless your angels, Ashley and John, in heaven with you.
❤👃well said beautifull
How very sad. Thank you, Ron, for telling this story❣️
I have a 9 year old granddaughter that I believe would do the same as she is a vivacious child who deeply loves pets & family & would fight to save them all. What a brave girl Ashley was. Prayers for peace for the entire family🙏💙🙏💛🙏💚🙏🧡🙏❤️🙏
What a brave little girl ♥
What a sad and tragic story. Ashley you truly are something to behold. Heros really do come in all shapes and sizes. ❤💛
Oh this is one of the saddest stories. Ashely was such a hero, I cannot imagine anything like it.
Hello Ron.! Mariposa is a spanish word, it means Butterfly.
So sorry for these Children..
Thank you for seeing to it that these children are not forgotten and their stories told. Ashley was truly a hero 😢
How very tragic and senseless. Innocent littles taken horrifically. So very sad to read that they lost twins the following year. My heart breaks for the whole family.
Thank's for sharing mate....
This was so awful and he is a sick monster.....rip.ashley and her lil brother and glad the others got away!...ty Ron for sharing this sad story!...Hope you have a good week ahead... Ron.. watching from Central Arkansas.. Mary...
Such a sad loss. Brave little girl rest in peace. Thanks for the story Ron
What a tragic story, those poor kids frightened and alone that day to fend for themselves. That monster and sicko of a man didn't have to kill any of them. I can't imagine the grief and heartache of the parents. Vanessa wrote was a touching letter to her siblings. The daughter Ashley was a little hero for doing what she did to save her other siblings. Thanks for sharing this story Ron. I was not familiar with this one. Take care.
Oh my god, your worst nightmare, and my husband wonders why I lock everything up when he heads off to work😳 kids go to school with him and that door doesn't open till I go to work and when home with kids in afternoon locked up again.👀
I agree! I live alone, and my doors are locked and sliding windows barred at all times both when I’m home or away. Sad we have to live that way now
I love watching you learning about these people
So very sad for this family but, at least they have comfort and peace for eternity forever.
You have to read what they said on the stone. I am crying. This brave girl! RIP Ashley and John. 🌟🌟
Hi Ron I am watching your video right now. Love your videos and channel. Thank you for posting this video and this story is so sad.
Very sad. That was so horrific. The ones that survived had terrible visions to remember. Thanks for sharing !
Very sad story. He was so evil! Thank you for sharing this story!
Sad , tragic.... breaks my heart.little ones peace be with you .Thanks for sharing Ron
These poor children! Horrible stuff!
Very sad story. RIP Ashley and John! 🪦🎚️🥀🙏🏼
hi ron......as always here in tacoma washington....
Thank you for sharing this story with us. Rest in peace Ashley & John . 🌹
Horrific story, the bravery of Ashley was incredible. I wish I could put a flower on their grave. RIP Ashley and John.
What a tragedy them babies should have had a chance to grow up what a monster he was 😢
OMG Ron! What a horrific story. That poor Ashley, I can,t imagine the pain she endured 😢 and poor little John sleeping and getting stabbed. May they both be resting in peace!❤😢 Too sad ❤
This made me cry, sweet protective Ashley and sweet lil John rip. Love is no greater than innocent children 🙏
Thank you Ron for sharing. It hard to watch with the killer but the story needed to be told and not forgotten. I was thinking what it be like when Ashley and John be alive today? So sad.
this horrible tragedy so heartbreaking, hugs and prayers to the family 🙏
This is probably the most tragic story I have ever heard. It's very heartbreaking. I can't imagine the fear inside those kids and especially Ashley their hero and poor young John. The parents' heartbreak must have also been unimaginable What a beautiful stone for them. I saw on the first stone that it was dedicated to twins that died in 2001. I wonder if those were their siblings too. Geesh, how much more could they take. By the words on the stone, I can feel their strong faith and I'm sure that is what is carrying this family through. RIP to Ashley and John and the baby twins too ❤💐
thanks Ron. what a tragic story.
Hello Ron Nice to have you in our State / Stay Dry & Safe ⛈️ weather .Thanks for the coverage ❤️🥲
We live in a very sick world :( how anyone can harm a child just boggles my mind! :(
That letter brought me to tears 😢
😢 so sad 💔😥😥😥 I have no words. R.i.P Ashley and John . Thank you Ron for remembering them.
This is just heartbreaking 💔… omg 😢
very sad story, I hope Ashley and John are resting in peace 🙏🙏💔
Ugh! I’m going to miss your videos, but you deserve a break! Please do come back, though! I love the way you tell stories. Take care!❤️
So, so tragic!!
It’s a hard one. Can’t wrap my mind around the level of intensity and horror. Those little angel…RIP ❤
Thank you for sharing their story. Example of true Evil. Rest in Peace little ones. Your story won't be forgotten.
Horrific, my heart breaks for them.. brave little girl!! Forever an angels now!! Prayers for the family.
Hello from Fitchburg, WI!
Ashley was so brave. And that sweet boy didn’t even know what was happening… I hope. I know they’re in paradise now. That man was evil….
Good night Ron thanks for the story very heart breaking and sad. God blessings upon you always.
What a monster, poor Ashley and john, beautiful soul rip😢🙏🏼
Such a sad story brave little girl may the babies rest in peace
Ashley: Heaven’s MPV. Absolute little heroine. Rest in Peace, angel.
How tragic for this family😢 I cannot imagine how terrified the children were. Ashley was such a brave little girl, defending her sisters! ❤ My God, her presence of mind to tell them to go. A hero!
Praying that Ashley and John are resting in peace 🙏 and pray for the family. Thankful that this monster was caught.
Thank you for this information Ron we’re north of Merced in Tracy and I had not heard of this case probably because we were still living in New Hampshire and we didn’t move back to California until 2001😮 our oldest daughter is named Ashley she is a tough cookie ❤❤
He should have been behind bars for the first crime who the hell let him out
Wym? The suspect was killed the same day by police. I haven’t watched the video yet but if that’s said the information is incorrect
What a terrible way to go! When people talk about how God help them trough sad times…I have to question what sort of God allowed to this happen to innocent children in a first place…? Where was God then???
I agree, you can't convince me otherwise.
@@lynd4852 thank you…
That’s a fair question. Can’t stand all this “oh they’re resting with God”. Well that little girl did more for those kids then God did so why is he getting the credit?
How can you ask where was God,we may not question God's decisions or his authority, I lost a son in the prime of his life, I never question God,that is not my place, but I know known that all of it will make sense someday when I meet Jesus face to face.
@@MichelleHolly-em5gpI respect your beliefs, you should respect others…
Horrifying
I have been a subscriber to you almost from the beginning and have never felt the need to reach out to you until now thank you so much for telling us this poignant story Of unconditional love of a brother or sister in our lives this could be the reason why I believe you started this channel god be with you and be safe thank you
Wow, thank you
😂Hey Ron save travels thank you for sharing this story.
Ron thank you for telling about Ashley who is a hero and little
.. and John ❤glad the monster is dead so we the taxpayers do t have to waste money on him
So sad
RIP 😢 😔 🙏 🕊 ☮ Ashley and John.
What a terribly tragic and sad story! The jail authorities should never have allowed the mad murderer to be on parole. Shame on them! Rest In Peace sweet Ashley and sweet John. May the angels watch over you. Thank you for this heart wrenching tale, Ron. Stay safe and keep well.
the killer died in a police ambush the same day. Idk where he got the information from that he was paroled his name was Jonathan David Bruce and you can see his find a grave
Thank you .
😢 these children had a real life "boogie man". They fought will. Prayers for them.
Jessica!! What a brave little girl.
Thanks for covering this story from my hometown Merced! Born and raised there. I was 19 when that crime happened, it was crazy, for such a small town like that. I love your channel!
Thank you Ron. Such a sad story you had to tell. Bless you.
Horrific story. The laws should always be tough on criminals to prevent such tragic circumstances such as this from happening. The monster should have been locked up tight. RIP to the child victims, Ashley and John.
The monster is dead ..he died in a police ambush the same day
To believe little Ashley was 10 months younger than me. Little John was a year younger than my sister. I hope the other 3 siblings are doing better today, along with the parents. Rest in peace to these children. So sad they were slaughtered by a demon let loose. Government has failed so many times is often makes me sick
That's California for you. Lost in their own weed world, letting danger walk free. Didn't have to be.
Lady touch grass you’re whole first sentence was complete 💩 & he wasn’t let free he was killed the same day by police
I fell so very bad for that family. Not one child bad anoth but two. Those Angels are in heaven. And that bastard is in hell. 🇺🇲☮️👻🪦
He was a devil worshiper. Who knows how many demons controlled him?
None unless you’re being metaphorical then it depends on how many drugs he was on.
A very sad story! I have a tears in my eyes. The horrible tragedy of the family - to lose a kids in such brutal way. Rest in peace, innocent babies. 😢
Hey!!! This is the story I told you about! So glad you got to cover it. Truly something out of a nightmare 😢
Thank you for sharing this terrifying tragedy. Oddly enough, John Carpenter directed and did the music score to Halloween and this family’s last name is also Carpenter…..May God Bless Ashley and John and the entire family. What a Monster. I cannot imagine the terror and grief this family has endured.
I held it together until you started to read the surviving sister's letter. It's unfortunate that she had to learn about sacrifices for the people you love in the most brutal way possible. The letter demonstrates she has grown up to be a wonderful woman and someone who her sister would be proud of.
Love your videos ❤
May they rest in peace as she was so very brave 🙏 😢 Thank you for sharing their story.
How heartbreaking 💔 love and prayers to the family. Wow, what a story. Agree, this evil being should have been in prison for life....before he hurt those sweet angels. RIP😇😇
Pure Tragedy - I Shared On My Facebook .. RIP .. to Them
Such a sad story, it touches the deepest part of the soul. Ashley is a true hero. Poor babies rip.❤
So very sad such a brave little girl for the love of her sisters
Great cemetery! California has such beautiful cemeteries! Ron, I've heard of the Carpenters! They sure put out some great albums!
SOOOOOO heartbreaking!! RIP Ashley and John!! XXXX 😭💔🌹
