@@fumikagetokoyami. EXACYTY the police KNEW where we lived and would just WAIT for ANY OF US to come home talking t my dad that is TRUE! 1 officer even played SOFTBA with my oldest brother
Actually, he really should have filed a police report and contacted CPS. They literally witnessed a crime involving the abuse of a small child. A bit of yelling and them not coming back really is not a good enough response to that, and none of the people involved should have been satisfied with that resolution. OP and the pastor really failed that child as much as the parents did, IMHO.
@@foogod4237He should do BOTH! If he gives the other churches a heads up, complete with their description, they could tip off the cops while the couple is still there-or when they intend to pick the child up
would been one thing if they talked about it and arranged it as 'improv day care' ..even if i'd argue church not is a place to put kids that not yet developed critical thinking basics ..but that asside , would been one thing if arranged beforehand but the fact they just ..dropping of.. the kid at random ,thats the kicker saying that kid likely be better of in some foster of 'stability' home away from home at the very least :/
The church I was associated with pretty much accepted that their "Sunday School" was basically a free child-minding service. In return, any parent leaving their children there understood that the children would be taught religious beliefs and principles, and if they didn't want their children taught those things, then they needed to make other arrangements. The arrangement seemed to work well and so far as I know, is still working well. Edit: But the story in the video sounds far too "pat" and I'm strongly suspicious that it was entirely made up, if not generated through an AI writer.
@@melkiorwiseman5234 you'd be surprised what some humans do.. besides feels like to many people just goess ''it must be gpt bot made' the last months... i mean for sod sake ,speak a little fancy on threads or such online and half the people in it report you as a bot ever since the last 'look AI!' talk.. wich saddly makes me feel the true problem with them is lost.. aka small peoples copy right and how so few appears to dicern betwee ntelling something like for example chat gpt ''analyze x allready developed thing and make a replica fundation with different names'' vs '' make me a combat vessel for space war and x and y made out of this and that'' :/
They should have been called the moment the nursery worker told the youth pastor what was going on. Stop the parents from taking the child to another church and doing the same thing (which they no doubt did).
I wonder if they thought they could get away with neglecting their baby, once the young pastor found them out. Sounds like Pastor was only calling them out for doing so.
Exactly, I don't understand why all the adults could not figure out that this was abandonment and call the police and CPS. Now the parents are just going to find another church to pull this on.
Story 4: My wife found a kitten on the side of the road, maybe a month or two old. We took him to the vet and $1000 later we found he had a broken tail, a fractured pelvis, Lots of road rash, and smelled like gasoline. He had to have his tail amputated and was pretty shaky for a bit. We’ve had him for months now and he’s the friendliest little kitten.
About 20 years ago, I was going out with some friends for a trail ride. In order to get to the trail, we needed to ride down the road for about a mile. We didn't get very far before I found a kitten on the road. She was fine, but there were no other kittens or a momma cat around. I didn't go on the ride. Instead, I got back in the saddle and rode back to the farm. I'm allergic, so I couldn't keep her. But, the farm owner took her in. Not sure how old she was before she died.
I bet the Prosecution had a field day when they read over everything that bloke said. Some people REALLY ought to listen to the part about ANYTHING they say being used in Evidence..
Final story, a sad case of entitlement and corruption leading to unnecessary death, had the dad not been corrupt, his daughter wouldn't been in this mess
less sad since she had brought it upon herself, it's why I hate stories where judges in charge dismiss all charges based on relationships. you know that 100% of all others in the same position would be locked up
Yep I'd be calling to police the moment I heard Katie's story. These people are not day care workers. Plus the irresponsibility of not providing contact info demands the police be called ASAP. Anything could have happened, the service ended early, a nut job came and started making extra holes in the people and building or the building caught fire..
Ditto, the moment OP heard that from Katie that they didnt have a name for the parents they should have called the cops. It was immediately evident at that point that they were not members of the church, so had abandoned their child at the chutch.
At my Temple, we don't allow parents/legal guardians to even leave the property if they don't bring their children with them. If the service ends, and we can't find the parents of a kid anywhere on the premises, the police will be called and the parents will be banned for life.
Aw man, the fact that the dogs in Story 4 were Beagle mixes makes it even more sad. Beagles are the most friendly dogs you'll ever know - so much so they're used in animal testing because of their loving and forgiving nature. I'm so glad Darla and the other dogs got the wonderful lives they deserved, people like the AH in that story are just the worst for treating such wonderful pups like that.
Eighteen years old is probably a pretty good age for a medium-sized dog, like a beagle, to live to, so it sounds like she had a good long life with OP.
I adopted my boy after I found him injured from being thrown off a balcony by old neighbors. I like to think zed knew a good heart so he came to me. His back legs were permanently injured, but he lived a long happy life. He unfortunately passed before Christmas last year at 15, but he was loved by all.
@@PuppyKattprobably similar charges but lighter, especially if they testified against the person as it seemingly was either father child or boss employee. If it's kids then idc if they got off light they likely were being treated similar. Employees they should have reported it, but when their livelihood is depentant on him it's probably hard to sacrifice anything like your income for just treatment.
Maybe it is just me but I don't think it is needed to remind the judge. He blames himself already. Even if he deserves to be reminded, that could be the thing that pushes him over the edge and another life is lost.
Judge should be given a chance to speak at swearing in ceremonies about the dangers of shielding young'uns from the consequences of their actions... with slides of the accident scene and autopsy pictures... Scare some of these future judges back on the straight and narrow...
It's wonderful of you all to be compassionate to the poor man who lost his child, but the thing you have to remember is how easily this could have been a multi-car accident. His incompetence could have so easily cost not just his daughter's life, but the lives of innocents. He definitely deserves to be reminded of what he did.
Now, it's cool that OP in the second story has a soft spot for kids. But why would anyone leave their laptop (which I'm sure has personal information on it) with strangers Karen's son-in the third story is 12 years old, and he's still known to throw tantrums, dude, grow up and as for the mom, sober up, and own up for your mistake OP in the fourth story is just an absolute hero, and the guy who did that to Darla and all the other puppies isn't just an entitled d-bag. He's an awful piece of trash
Karen in third story; If you know your 12 yo old is prone to tantrums, then beat his butt when he has them until he learns acceptable public behavior. At 12, you don't have very long before you are no longer able to correct his behavior physically beyond shipping him off to military school. At this point, I see repeated and long prison sentences in the boy's future.
Story 4: One of the worst things about incidents like these are that often times, people get away with it, and in the off-chance they do get caught, the motives are really nasty, often times just summed up as "I can do whatever I want with them, I can treat them like objects to be thrown out when they have no more use to me." Honestly, it's depressing that this still happens to this day, not everyone has empathy towards pets
Several years ago (2015-ish), my family had come home late at night to see our dog sniffing at these 2 small, dark blobs in our yard. Turned out to be a pair of Pit Bull puppies that had a terrible case of mange. They had no fur and covered head to toe in scabs and sores. For the next couple days we took care of these puppies as well as took them to the vet to start treatment. After a couple days, a foster home was found that took the two of them as well as a third puppy in the same condition found in a different part of town. They were clearly all from the same litter which means someone went around town ditching sick puppies. Got to see them about a year later and they looked healthy and happy. They ended up being named after the Charmed sisters, Phoebe, Page, and Piper.
sadly this is an ongoing blight were I live in the southwestern US even worse is when both police and animal control are part of the problem and even animal shelters aren't given much of a choice in the matter as such puppy mills are often run by local gangs under the control of the cartels across the border it's such an issue that owning a particular breed of dog might get you an unpleasant visit
Anyone who abuses animals should be locked in a cage for the rest of their life. If they treat animals that way then they are bound to treat their children badly too.
Yup, even if you don't hold pets in higher moral regard than other domesticated mammals with similar intelligence and sociability like cows and pigs, we should worry that someone gratuitously cruel to animals is a danger to humans too. This reminds me how a couple years back a cop in my area got busted running a dog fighting ring. Turns out, his policing record was littered with red flags, citizen complaints that never resulted in serious reprimand or firing. Instead, because police always take care of their own at the expense of the public, the "good cops" at his past departments had allowed this "bad apple cop" to quit with credentials intact instead of firing him for his egregious behavior against citizens. It wasn't until he was caught being cruel to animals that he was finally fired and prevented from policing humans anymore. SMH.
Story 4 reminds me of how we got our Bob... We were leaving our property, going over a hill, when a Chevy pickup almost hit us going around 70mph. Two people in the back were standing up & just getting back into sitting position. We thought it was odd. Then we crested the hill to find a little dog rolling in the dirt. They threw him out of that pickup... He had some road rash & they had tried to slit his throat, but it was very superficial. We brought him home & he's been here ever since. He's a great boi!
My dog isn't from trauma herself, she's actually a stray from a hurricane as far as we can tell. So original owners were never found and she was taken to a foster shelter here that specializes in finding dogs temporary families while also making sure that forever families are good enough to take care of the dog. Many people are involved and it keeps dogs out of kennels who (like Darla, not the stories Darla, our dogs Darla.) have kennel anxiety. When we were fostering we saw a few dogs worse off and some were shy, all were loveable though and found good forever homes. Darla we fostered and immediately knew we wanted to keep her, sadly it did lead to us being unable to foster more dogs as she's dog aggressive. But she was all matted and pretty much needed to be shaved bald when we got her, she had heartworm and had to be kept on crate rest (bed rest, but for dogs) for 3 months, yes that sucked. She now went from underweight malnourished and sick. To well, a bit overweight from all our treats 😅. She's a white chow chow and is a great guard dog. She is loved by the kids who go for walks passed though because she always looks happy and is ALWAYS watching.
@@melkiorwiseman5234 No, seeing parents entitle their children over and over lowers morale. Had that father the judge put his foot down when she got the first ticket, and every subsequent ticket, including taking away the car, she might not have ended up in the trauma center in terrible condition.
@@jamiepatterson1214 "she might not have ended up in the trauma center in terrible condition." She was going 120 at the time of the accident, she was absolutely extremely dead
The last story is a story as old as time. When someone isn't punished for doing dangerous things they keep doing them and do even more dangerous things.
@@MrCrunchytimeI mean how would you know? Do you have any proof that it’s fake? I don’t why people like you comment this without giving any evidence if a story is fictional or not.
@@MrCrunchytime Agreed. When animals are abused like that, there's a high incidence of incurable issues. The super-happy ending for the puppies is far from reality.
Baby at church story: OP, you or the youth pastor should have called the police for child abandonment. Truthfully, that should have been done within an hour or so of the early service ending. I wouldn't even think the service would have stayed available with the time between the early service ending and main service beginning being two hours. K should have spoken up much sooner. Laptop story: Given how much even a CHEAP laptop costs, why would you let a complete stranger use it? Monitor story: I'm willing to bet Karen and Damien have lost more than a few "friends" over similar incidents. Fluff, it depends on just how much the monitor costs. Some can be rather expensive. Dog story: OP, all I can say is thank you for doing such a great job! Unfortunately, "puppy mills" are a big business. It's much better to get a pet from a reputable breeder or reputable pet store or one the many shelters and rescue organizations than to use a puppy mill because of the "deal" you can get. I feel absolutely no sympathy for ED. Texas story: Hmmm, I would have strongly considered looking into making a formal complaint about the judge misusing his authority. There are procedures for that. Nothing against OP, but I DO blame the judge. He protected his daughter from the consequences of her own actions, which I'm certain emboldened her and led to his own daughter's death. The ONLY good thing was that she didn't injure or kill anyone else in the process.
Lady (14 March 2006 to 06 December 2020) was from (my family suspects now looking back) a puppy mill. She was the best therapy dog ever(she was my first dog)
*Fourth Story:* Karma struck that a-hole hard. If I had been in the same situation, he wouldn't have lived long enough to develop cancer. Animal cruelty is one of the few things can drive me to violence and IDGAF who did it. PSTD drives me into a fugue whenever that happens and I don't stop unless I'm restrained or the offender(s) are no longer moving.
Same, believe you me. I see this happening, I get immediately *ENRAGED*, often violently so, towards anyone attacking a defenseless animal ( A pet) GGRRRRR!!!! 😡🤬
Yep and in that case, even if you were charged, if you can't remember because of PTSD driving you to do it, you'd just go to a mental asylum and likely get out very quick :)
@@nancyhetzke3885it sounds to me like this barn was the only building. Just by itself in the middle of nowhere. So could be a well kept secret. I have to wonder if any woman would be stupid enough to marry him. Then again, stupid knows no bounds.
That final story… I hope that judge lives a long life after hearing that is lack of consequences for his daughter caused her death. He needs to live a good long time with every cop reminding him constantly. I know I would.
Being a retired medic from an all volunteer squad for 28 years in a small country town, I would have taken photos of the wreck and mailed them to the judge with a note saying "Can you buy this one off?"
Story 2: a kid seemly having more common sense then the mom defies the natural order. Amazing how many people forget that most stores have camera and employees have smart phones with HD cameras. Story 4: I'm going to go John Wick on that B!@#$% that abuse all these dogs.
Story 4: You and me both, I know I'm going to hell and when I do...I'll hunt him down and not even the devil is going to be able to save that horrible human.
Story 4, mother nature herself decided to go John Wick on him by giving him cancer. I wonder if he still thought he could do whatever he wants to animals or if he just turned into Cruella DeVille by the end.
I ended up with a Pomeranian that was a rescue from a puppy mill. My stepbrother and his wife had agreed to foster her. But she kept trying to bite my teenage nephew. They gave her to my mother, who discovered that she was only snapping at people who tried to pick her up from above. When I met little Miss Marshmallow, and picked her up by sliding my hand under her chest, it was love at first sight. She decided that I belonged to her. I miss my little "Cuisinart".
Story 4: OP is just Awesome!!! When the ED said "I can do whatever I want with the dogs" and "Gotta get rid of the runts somehow, they don't sell well." I was half expecting for OP to lunge at the guy.
@@MrCrunchytime Laws for treating dogs humanly (when they are legally property) vary from place to place if they exist at all. I think any kind of puppy mill would purposefully locate itself in unincorporated land in a county that does not have any such laws. That is, set up shop where it's legal!
With story three, that’s worth going to Small Claims Court in my opinion. Depending on the make, some monitors can get very expensive and cost thousands of dollars. So I’d say Damian and his mom have a very expensive lesson coming.
Story 2: That's why I have wire lock for my laptop. Not that I would lend it out to a stranger EVER, but it makes taking off with it more of a challenge. And we all know that Karens don't care about your answer, they WILL take what they want!
the guy that saved the puppy makes me believe in humankind again!!👍👍👍👏👏👏👏 here in Brazil mistreat an animal, even dogs and cats, is considered ambiental crime and ends in jail!!
Story 2: It's a bizarre mentality, literally willing to ruin anyone and everyone to get what they want. It's extremely bad, and I've seen a few articles where it actually happened.
OP leaving their laptop with a stranger is bizarre ..... and totally irresponsible to boot. They kinda deserved the hassle they went though to retrieve their laptop from the thieving customer. I rather suspect that if police had gotten involved early on while trying to get it back the cops just might have told OP in the end that what they did was straight up stupid. Actually, I was half expecting the kid to spill a soda into the computer and then OP having an argument with the mother about paying for getting the computer fixed or replaced if the soda fried the computer. But, then, at 72 maybe I have more life lessons under my belt to know not to lend anything that I don't want potentially damaged or out right stolen. Hopefully, one will have learned a lot, including common sense, by the time they are an old fart ..... or fartess.
Story 3 is a great example why liability insurance is mandatory here in The Netherlands. If I accidentally knock over that antique vase of yours or drop my glass and permanently stain your couch, the cost of replacement or repair can be claimed at my insurance. No need to fight or go to court over it.
@@Feralwolf444 If it was an adult, yes. But unless malice can be proven they would have payed since minors are not considered to be liable for there actions.
Storyboard I bet the dude didn't feel so smug his first night in prison. There Are four basic types that the inmate hate. Those who passionately hug by force, those who hurt children, those who hurt women, and those who hurt animals. In prison guys like that will be giving up the cheeks the first night. I hope he enjoyed his new cellmate
That last story was terrible! I wish these entitled parents had the foresight to see that letting jr. do whatever they want or keeping them from experiencing the consequences of their behavior isn't doing their kid any favors!😕
S5: No. No. That is BEYOND clueless. I hope her condition was a wake up call to him, and that he spent a LONG time wishing he'd never gotten her out of any consequences, because he sure can't make the laws of physics and biology turn a blind eye now.
"Just let me buy it off you". Seriously? Laptops cost hundreds, in some cases even thousands, of dollars. If she had that kind of money on hand, she wouldn't need to steal a laptop for her kid. She could just go buy one. Also, laptops aren't just game machines, like she seemed to think. Handing over a laptop would be handing over a lot of personal things, from photographs, to email log-ins, to banking information and more, for many people. This is also why you don't let others use your electronic devices. Everything, even an actual console like Switch or PlayStation, is connected to a variety of online accounts.
Story 3: it depends, on what kind of monitor it is, when it was bought etc. A really good gaming one can cost in excess of $200 and even a decent cheep monitor can be around $20+. Which given that it was hooked up to both the computer and a console as well as them even going to court over it to begin with. I’m going to say it’s probably high end. So yes small claims court would accept the suit.
Regarding Karen and Damien after she left out, I dropped a dime to the police and said there’s a drunk woman, terrorizing the streets with her driving and give the license plate number. The four-story almost made me physically ill
2nd story: OP should have made it clear in no uncertain terms “no you may not use my laptop” and packed it up without letting the kid use it. Don’t ever lend strangers valuable electronics, ever.
The laptop story has been around for years, but DOES remind me of what just happened this weekend. I work as a crew chief with a stagehand labor company, and we had a big load out Sunday into Monday. It was fraught with extreme stupidity as no one wanted to get out of our way and is a tale unto itself. Now I had a bunch of new hands working, and one of these kids had all of her stuff in a plastic bag she put on top of a vending machine near where I kept my paperwork with my steward...I am a working chief so rarely stay in one spot at any given time, helping as needed. Anyway, she comes and asks if I had seen her bag. I hadnt, but told her check with security. I make a round of the arena and stop in to see what happened. There are cameras EVERYWHERE in this building, and security is very friendly with us. Clear as day, there is one of my loaders, first looking through the bag..and a few minutes later, he grabs it and puts it in his pack. Of course I grab him, take him into the office with my steward for a witness, and he pulls her bag out saying if she had asked,mhe woukd have returned it. I had over fifty people there on my crew, plus all the clients and production people, how the hell is ANYONE going to know who to ask? Yeah, hes fired in my eyes..stagehands do not have much, and DEFINITELY do not need to be preyed on by fellow stagehands.
The last story took me back over 50 years to when I saw the road traffic film "Mechanised Death" at school. I think that there's no need to blame the judge father. He gave himself a lifelong sentence!
Puppy story THE BEST! My sister-in-law and I rescue dogs and cats where we live in Israel, and aholes getting such karma is a story I needed to hear right now. Thank you thank you thank you.
When it’s obvious that lack of parenting played a part in a child’s death, I think that the parent(s) should be charged with accomplice to involuntary manslaughter. They have to be punished and made an example of.
i was a street racer many, many years ago. we always made sure to find areas we could 100% shut off traffic in the middle of the night, and would move around frequently. not even leaving a driveway as a possible entrance to our "drag strip." sure i know how incredibly stupid this was now, but at least in my late teens and early 20's i had respect for others lives.
23:33 More dire Consequences for the Daddy Judge failing his morals than anything else could ever imagine. He can always just be an Ill Judge for all the rest of his children 😮💨😮💨😥😥😥
Story 3: depending on the type of monitor they had, it can cost anywhere between $500-$2000 since they said it was an expensive monitor. So small claims court sounds right
When their daddies bail them out always instead of letting them take the consequences of their actions what usually happens is they and daddy find out that they can’t be bailed out of death, or being sentenced a wheelchair for life.
Third-story a monitor is definitely worth going to court over because some of them can be quite expensive. I have seen computer monitors that run upwards of $400
Story 1. It is child abandonment considering that a church is one of the four places you can leave a child if you don't want them, the other three being a hospital, a police station and a fire house. The youth pastor should've called the cops the second Katie let him and OP know that the kid was there, those parents deserve to have that poor baby taken from them while they get locked up in jail! 😠😠😠 Story 4. I've never been more satisfied hearing the punishment of an animal abuser than with this story, this monster not only got 38 years but he also wasn't allowed to be let out earlier because of his cancer, so he's literally gonna rot in jail for what he did! Excellent! 😈😈😈 As for all the dogs and puppies, I am so happy to hear that every single one of them were able to find loving forever homes, including the one OP saved. R.I.P. Darla, you sweet pupper. Hope you're having fun playing soccer with all the other pups in Heaven, sweet girl! 🙏🙏🕊️🕊️
3. Pandering to a child's or anyone else's tantrums is NEVER the way to solve the problem as that only rewards the bad behaviour. In the long term the behaviour worsens and you get an adult with ZERO boundaries on what is acceptable behaviour.
So, what happened in the last story? The way it's presented, I'm guessing the kid managed to kill herself, and was dead on the scene, but if that's the case, why put her on a backboard and transport her to a Level 1 Trauma Center? Maybe the EMTs didn't have much to do, but in my area they'd probably call a private ambulance service to transport the body to the morgue. (There's also the issue of who pays for the transportation once the victim passes.)
The last story reminds me of a similar accident that happened where I live. Drunk teenager coming from a concert drove the wrong way up a one-way street and she slammed into the gas line of the house at the end. Seven emergency responders were too close to the house when it exploded, and the entire area had to be evacuated. Hundreds of people were displaced and 7 houses were damaged because of the explosion. The houses were heritage houses and owned by pillars of the community. Trials went on for years and ended up with the kid getting 3 years in prison. The accident caused 5 million in damages and the kid and her dad are sueing the venue for not stopping her from driving.
I am glad the a-hole puppy farm guy got what he deserved. No one in the world deserves to be treated like how he treated those puppies. My late dog was throwed out of a window when she was a puppy at highway/street speeds and hit the side of the vet hospital my mom was working at at the time. Her only major injury was that she lost one of knees (years later she was run over and lost one of her hips). She was 17 when she passed 3 years ago and she was one of the most awesome dogs ever. Karma, thank you for what you did to that a-hole.
For the third story, they should have called child protection services right away. If a parent is more interested in getting drunk than looking after their child, they do not deserve a child at all.
I would say if that mom whose son broke the monitor was that drunk, call the cops. Tell them that someone just left our house drunk and is now driving with her child in the car. Not only would she have to go through all of the legal proceedings regarding the DUI, but she would receive child endangerment charges as well.
If I was that youth pastor I would be calling CPS and telling him what these parents have been doing as part of being parents that they are willing to drop their children off anywhere and not have any form of contact.
I understand that they guy in story 2 was just being generous and didn't wanna deal with Karen initially, but this is precisely why I only let people I trust borrow my expensive things.
Which is kind of crazy to me in some respects. I see people potentially destroying people's lives(both literally and figuritively) and constantly getting maybe a couple years at most so seeing them get that big a sentence is so odd sounding to me.
@@fluidwolfyes, I was looking for comments on this. I just can’t see this part of the story being accurate (unfortunately, as it’s a deserved sentence!)
Story 5: Pro-tip: I'm A.S.E. certified and I can tell you that the natural habitat OF the Ford Mustang (by design) is upside-down in a ditch regardless of model year OR driver experience! 16 year olds that recently got their license just make it ten times worse...
Story 4 - OP, the Vetenary clinic and it employees and the officers are heroes in this story. Saving those poor pups from that ED and making sure that he can NEVER do anything like this again. God Bless you OP and everyone involved.
Story 4: "You want early release from prison? Sure. I'll personally drive you away...on the freeway....doing about 65 mph. No, you don't have to put on your seat belt...."
Story 2: This is exactly why I never let my computer equipment get out of arms reach...and why I hate other humans. I am taking a grad IT classes and I do work at the local brewery in a food hall because I'm tired of being at home during the pandemic. Kids always think I'm playing a retro computer games since it is a gaming laptop (they last a long time). Most of the time the kids watch for a bit, the parents talk to me about it, and it's a positive interaction. When it goes bad...it goes really bad. I've had people scream, rave, and try to snatch it from me so often I had to stop going.
The last story: Ahhh that sweet sweet karma. Thank goodness that no innocent person was hurt when that little twit decided to push her luck one more time.
My mom's friends son was playing vr and ended up smacking a controller at our TV. It was a complete accident, of course, and we're visiting from Florida so their mother wasn't there. We called, and right away, she replaced the TV without any hesitation.
If I saw anyone abusing animals like the dirtbag in the fourth story, I would not hesitate and instantly call the cops. That's just a shitty thing to do. If you have a pet, then that animal needs love, nurturing, food, etc. just like humans.
Don't laptops usually need Passwords just to use them, at least mine does. The moment you close it and open it you get a screen that requires a password. So this ladies kid couldn't have used it when they got home anyway.
There are multiple ways to get around the password, depending a little on OS but one of them is simple getting the OS boot in Safe Mode with Command Prompt. Only the most nessescarry parts of the OS are booted. no password required here. Then changing the password is only a few commands away and its easy to google.
While the last story is sad, it's something that she chose herself. Dad that enabling her just make matters worse. And knowing the fact that he had to bury his own daughter because his action will haunt him for the rest of his life.
A monitor is DEFINITELY worth going to small claims court over, especially an expensive one, like OP said. OP mentioned they have a lot of photos, which suggests they could be a photographer, and to have a monitor that is high quality for photo editing, and calibrated to be true-to-life can cost hundreds, even thousands of dollars.
That last story was a preventable tragedy in every way. I’m sure the moment the judge was asked to identify his daughter’s remains, I’m sure he realized a sh-tstorm was heading his way. The fact he had a double standard would immediately give every defendant that went before him on vehicle related charges a legitimate opportunity for appeal. That in turn would bring attention from the state bar association and judicial standards committee.
My friend and I had totally been known to leave our kids at church and go for brunch. We didn't go for the whole morning but we seriously needed that brunch. :)
Story 2: OP should know better by now!!! I have a soft spot for kids myself, but I'm not going to give their parents the slightest opportunity to F*** me over. THIS one, I'm afraid, is on the OP because they REALLY should know Karen better by now...
Story 4 as a dog owner, I’m so glad that Darla lived a long and happy life. 18 years is such a long time for a dog. She makes me think of my dog Stitch (named after Stitch from Lelo and Stitch). We’ve had her since she was a puppy and she is 16 now. But she’s doing really well for her age. Heck she doesn’t even look old at all, and barely has any gray on her. She gets walks regularly, She probably doesn’t have much time left, so we are doing the best we can to keep her comfortable. When your dog lives for so long, that bond is irreplaceable. RIP Darla you will be missed and thank you for keeping OP happy.
Absolutely. Computer monitors have a higher pixel density than TVs and the one in question had the equivalent resolution of a 4K UHD at least 50" in diagonal length.
I think the father probably regretted it for the rest of his life or will regret that he did what he did. Had he known what was going to happen he would have done things differently. But at least no one else got hurt from the accident.
Worth every penny of Karen costs though. Let them think they can get away with abusing your property and they will continue to treat your property and everybody else's like it doesn't matter if they damage it.
This is how I got my kitten Buttercup, someone through him out of their car going well over 65 on the highway. He recently passed away at the age of 10 and I miss him so much
My now ex boyfriend lived in the country, and while driving home from his house, a puppy ran across the back road in front of me. I stopped and scooped him up. Unlike Darla, this was a big lanky pup. When I got home, Mom would not let me keep him, but a quick phone call to my boyfriend's family resulted in his being allowed to live there. His name was Scotty. Hearing about a puppy in the road, my boyfriend's brother and wife went searching and found two more, soon to be Duke and Duchess. Sadly Scotty caught Parvo and died shortly thereafter, and Duke as well, but Duchess survived and became our dog. She lived longer than our relationship did, but I continued to share the costs of shots, fixing, and food with his family for the rest of her life.
Story 4: I feel like a just end for the entitled d-bag would be where he is fed to a pack of starving dogs as opposed to just being thrown out of a moving vehicle.
in the last story i would blame DADDY JUDGE 100% he should've PROHIBITED HER from driving with the 16 tickets
Just the phrase "see what happens when you don't let kids learn road safety" would be a slap in the face to that judge

The pastor in the first story should've warned every church he could, to prevent the parents from using another church as free day-care.
Actually, he really should have filed a police report and contacted CPS. They literally witnessed a crime involving the abuse of a small child. A bit of yelling and them not coming back really is not a good enough response to that, and none of the people involved should have been satisfied with that resolution.
OP and the pastor really failed that child as much as the parents did, IMHO.
@@foogod4237He should do BOTH! If he gives the other churches a heads up, complete with their description, they could tip off the cops while the couple is still there-or when they intend to pick the child up
would been one thing if they talked about it and arranged it as 'improv day care' ..even if i'd argue church not is a place to put kids that not yet developed critical thinking basics ..but that asside , would been one thing if arranged beforehand but the fact they just ..dropping of.. the kid at random ,thats the kicker saying that kid likely be better of in some foster of 'stability' home away from home at the very least :/
The church I was associated with pretty much accepted that their "Sunday School" was basically a free child-minding service. In return, any parent leaving their children there understood that the children would be taught religious beliefs and principles, and if they didn't want their children taught those things, then they needed to make other arrangements. The arrangement seemed to work well and so far as I know, is still working well.
Edit: But the story in the video sounds far too "pat" and I'm strongly suspicious that it was entirely made up, if not generated through an AI writer.
@@melkiorwiseman5234 you'd be surprised what some humans do.. besides feels like to many people just goess ''it must be gpt bot made' the last months... i mean for sod sake ,speak a little fancy on threads or such online and half the people in it report you as a bot ever since the last 'look AI!' talk..

Story 1: Police and CPS should have been contacted immediately, before parents had a chance to get back into that building.
They should have been called the moment the nursery worker told the youth pastor what was going on. Stop the parents from taking the child to another church and doing the same thing (which they no doubt did).
My thoughts exactly!
Shame on the parents for dropping off their child at a church for 5 Hrs! That’s abandonment under any circumstances!
I wonder if they thought they could get away with neglecting their baby, once the young pastor found them out. Sounds like Pastor was only calling them out for doing so.
Exactly, I don't understand why all the adults could not figure out that this was abandonment and call the police and CPS. Now the parents are just going to find another church to pull this on.
On the story about the computer monitor, ABSOLUTELY sue her.
Yep- some of those monitors cost more than the tower. I've seen some at best buy for more than $1000. Samsung has one that's $2000
Sue, she and her kid won't learn anything about property destruction if you dont.
Story 4: My wife found a kitten on the side of the road, maybe a month or two old. We took him to the vet and $1000 later we found he had a broken tail, a fractured pelvis, Lots of road rash, and smelled like gasoline. He had to have his tail amputated and was pretty shaky for a bit. We’ve had him for months now and he’s the friendliest little kitten.
Kudos to you!!
I'm so happy for both you and the kitty.
Cat distribution system at its finest
About 20 years ago, I was going out with some friends for a trail ride. In order to get to the trail, we needed to ride down the road for about a mile. We didn't get very far before I found a kitten on the road.
She was fine, but there were no other kittens or a momma cat around. I didn't go on the ride. Instead, I got back in the saddle and rode back to the farm. I'm allergic, so I couldn't keep her. But, the farm owner took her in. Not sure how old she was before she died.
I bet the Prosecution had a field day when they read over everything that bloke said.
Some people REALLY ought to listen to the part about ANYTHING they say being used in Evidence..
Final story, a sad case of entitlement and corruption leading to unnecessary death, had the dad not been corrupt, his daughter wouldn't been in this mess
It's this reason why it's verboten in my country for anyone on a restricted licence to drive a high-powered vehicle.
H b. F yxted🎉sj
🎉
less sad since she had brought it upon herself, it's why I hate stories where judges in charge dismiss all charges based on relationships. you know that 100% of all others in the same position would be locked up
Yep I'd be calling to police the moment I heard Katie's story. These people are not day care workers. Plus the irresponsibility of not providing contact info demands the police be called ASAP. Anything could have happened, the service ended early, a nut job came and started making extra holes in the people and building or the building caught fire..
Ditto, the moment OP heard that from Katie that they didnt have a name for the parents they should have called the cops. It was immediately evident at that point that they were not members of the church, so had abandoned their child at the chutch.
At my Temple, we don't allow parents/legal guardians to even leave the property if they don't bring their children with them. If the service ends, and we can't find the parents of a kid anywhere on the premises, the police will be called and the parents will be banned for life.
@@Feralwolf444 No doubt this policy is the result of a family pulling this stunt before.
Aw man, the fact that the dogs in Story 4 were Beagle mixes makes it even more sad. Beagles are the most friendly dogs you'll ever know - so much so they're used in animal testing because of their loving and forgiving nature. I'm so glad Darla and the other dogs got the wonderful lives they deserved, people like the AH in that story are just the worst for treating such wonderful pups like that.
Eighteen years old is probably a pretty good age for a medium-sized dog, like a beagle, to live to, so it sounds like she had a good long life with OP.
I adopted my boy after I found him injured from being thrown off a balcony by old neighbors. I like to think zed knew a good heart so he came to me. His back legs were permanently injured, but he lived a long happy life. He unfortunately passed before Christmas last year at 15, but he was loved by all.
I would like to know what happened to the two thugs in this puppy mill story.
@@PuppyKattprobably similar charges but lighter, especially if they testified against the person as it seemingly was either father child or boss employee. If it's kids then idc if they got off light they likely were being treated similar. Employees they should have reported it, but when their livelihood is depentant on him it's probably hard to sacrifice anything like your income for just treatment.
That last story is so harsh and tragic and it was avoidable. I’d blame the judge, but I’m guessing he blames himself.
Mhm
Maybe it is just me but I don't think it is needed to remind the judge. He blames himself already.
Even if he deserves to be reminded, that could be the thing that pushes him over the edge and another life is lost.
I'd make sure to remind him what he caused every chance I got.
Judge should be given a chance to speak at swearing in ceremonies about the dangers of shielding young'uns from the consequences of their actions... with slides of the accident scene and autopsy pictures... Scare some of these future judges back on the straight and narrow...
It's wonderful of you all to be compassionate to the poor man who lost his child, but the thing you have to remember is how easily this could have been a multi-car accident. His incompetence could have so easily cost not just his daughter's life, but the lives of innocents. He definitely deserves to be reminded of what he did.
Now, it's cool that OP in the second story has a soft spot for kids. But why would anyone leave their laptop (which I'm sure has personal information on it) with strangers
Karen's son-in the third story is 12 years old, and he's still known to throw tantrums, dude, grow up and as for the mom, sober up, and own up for your mistake
OP in the fourth story is just an absolute hero, and the guy who did that to Darla and all the other puppies isn't just an entitled d-bag. He's an awful piece of trash
Yeah calling bullshit on that second story. unless you're just some super sheltered naive moron, this never happened.
Karen in third story; If you know your 12 yo old is prone to tantrums, then beat his butt when he has them until he learns acceptable public behavior. At 12, you don't have very long before you are no longer able to correct his behavior physically beyond shipping him off to military school. At this point, I see repeated and long prison sentences in the boy's future.
Omg your first point is so true! Let's hope OP learned their lesson 🤦♀️
I was so happy to hear that that piece of trash got so long in jail and not long to live left either!! Karma and the law at its finest!! 🥳🥳🥳
@@katta309 I couldn't have said it better myself 👍
Story 4: op went full on John Wick there.
"People?" No, the person who did that to those poor puppies is a heartless monster
Fully agree. He sold his soul to Mammon and karma bit him not only in the form of spending the rest of his life in jail, he got cancer.
@@JamesDavy2009 what soul?
Story 4: One of the worst things about incidents like these are that often times, people get away with it, and in the off-chance they do get caught, the motives are really nasty, often times just summed up as "I can do whatever I want with them, I can treat them like objects to be thrown out when they have no more use to me."
Honestly, it's depressing that this still happens to this day, not everyone has empathy towards pets
Several years ago (2015-ish), my family had come home late at night to see our dog sniffing at these 2 small, dark blobs in our yard. Turned out to be a pair of Pit Bull puppies that had a terrible case of mange. They had no fur and covered head to toe in scabs and sores. For the next couple days we took care of these puppies as well as took them to the vet to start treatment. After a couple days, a foster home was found that took the two of them as well as a third puppy in the same condition found in a different part of town. They were clearly all from the same litter which means someone went around town ditching sick puppies. Got to see them about a year later and they looked healthy and happy. They ended up being named after the Charmed sisters, Phoebe, Page, and Piper.
sadly this is an ongoing blight were I live in the southwestern US even worse is when both police and animal control are part of the problem and even animal shelters aren't given much of a choice in the matter as such puppy mills are often run by local gangs under the control of the cartels across the border it's such an issue that owning a particular breed of dog might get you an unpleasant visit
@@Wolfen5207 AWWW! The Power of Three (Puppies) Will Set You Free!
Anyone who abuses animals should be locked in a cage for the rest of their life. If they treat animals that way then they are bound to treat their children badly too.
Yup, even if you don't hold pets in higher moral regard than other domesticated mammals with similar intelligence and sociability like cows and pigs, we should worry that someone gratuitously cruel to animals is a danger to humans too. This reminds me how a couple years back a cop in my area got busted running a dog fighting ring. Turns out, his policing record was littered with red flags, citizen complaints that never resulted in serious reprimand or firing. Instead, because police always take care of their own at the expense of the public, the "good cops" at his past departments had allowed this "bad apple cop" to quit with credentials intact instead of firing him for his egregious behavior against citizens. It wasn't until he was caught being cruel to animals that he was finally fired and prevented from policing humans anymore. SMH.
Story 4 reminds me of how we got our Bob...
We were leaving our property, going over a hill, when a Chevy pickup almost hit us going around 70mph.
Two people in the back were standing up & just getting back into sitting position.
We thought it was odd.
Then we crested the hill to find a little dog rolling in the dirt.
They threw him out of that pickup...
He had some road rash & they had tried to slit his throat, but it was very superficial.
We brought him home & he's been here ever since.
He's a great boi!
Horrifying! Thank you for saving this sweet little soul.
My dog isn't from trauma herself, she's actually a stray from a hurricane as far as we can tell. So original owners were never found and she was taken to a foster shelter here that specializes in finding dogs temporary families while also making sure that forever families are good enough to take care of the dog.
Many people are involved and it keeps dogs out of kennels who (like Darla, not the stories Darla, our dogs Darla.) have kennel anxiety. When we were fostering we saw a few dogs worse off and some were shy, all were loveable though and found good forever homes. Darla we fostered and immediately knew we wanted to keep her, sadly it did lead to us being unable to foster more dogs as she's dog aggressive. But she was all matted and pretty much needed to be shaved bald when we got her, she had heartworm and had to be kept on crate rest (bed rest, but for dogs) for 3 months, yes that sucked. She now went from underweight malnourished and sick. To well, a bit overweight from all our treats 😅. She's a white chow chow and is a great guard dog. She is loved by the kids who go for walks passed though because she always looks happy and is ALWAYS watching.
I blame dad 100%, he did that to his daughter!
The morale of the last story: you can't bail your daughter out of trauma
The moral of the story is that accidents can lower morale.
@@melkiorwiseman5234 No, seeing parents entitle their children over and over lowers morale. Had that father the judge put his foot down when she got the first ticket, and every subsequent ticket, including taking away the car, she might not have ended up in the trauma center in terrible condition.
@@jamiepatterson1214 "she might not have ended up in the trauma center in terrible condition."
She was going 120 at the time of the accident, she was absolutely extremely dead
The last story is a story as old as time. When someone isn't punished for doing dangerous things they keep doing them and do even more dangerous things.
Until the person meets a bad end themselves

The story of animal cruelty had me in tears. So glad OP was able to get proof of it and they were convicted. So happy Darla had a good long life.
Good stories invoke all kinds of emotions... but that's all this one is; a story. Just another work of fiction to drum up likes and acclaim.
@@MrCrunchytimeI mean how would you know? Do you have any proof that it’s fake? I don’t why people like you comment this without giving any evidence if a story is fictional or not.
@@unamed2516 It's too dramatic, too structured.
@@MrCrunchytime Agreed. When animals are abused like that, there's a high incidence of incurable issues. The super-happy ending for the puppies is far from reality.
Baby at church story: OP, you or the youth pastor should have called the police for child abandonment. Truthfully, that should have been done within an hour or so of the early service ending. I wouldn't even think the service would have stayed available with the time between the early service ending and main service beginning being two hours. K should have spoken up much sooner.
Laptop story: Given how much even a CHEAP laptop costs, why would you let a complete stranger use it?
Monitor story: I'm willing to bet Karen and Damien have lost more than a few "friends" over similar incidents.
Fluff, it depends on just how much the monitor costs. Some can be rather expensive.
Dog story: OP, all I can say is thank you for doing such a great job! Unfortunately, "puppy mills" are a big business. It's much better to get a pet from a reputable breeder or reputable pet store or one the many shelters and rescue organizations than to use a puppy mill because of the "deal" you can get. I feel absolutely no sympathy for ED.
Texas story: Hmmm, I would have strongly considered looking into making a formal complaint about the judge misusing his authority. There are procedures for that. Nothing against OP, but I DO blame the judge. He protected his daughter from the consequences of her own actions, which I'm certain emboldened her and led to his own daughter's death. The ONLY good thing was that she didn't injure or kill anyone else in the process.
Lady (14 March 2006 to 06 December 2020) was from (my family suspects now looking back) a puppy mill. She was the best therapy dog ever(she was my first dog)
*Fourth Story:* Karma struck that a-hole hard. If I had been in the same situation, he wouldn't have lived long enough to develop cancer. Animal cruelty is one of the few things can drive me to violence and IDGAF who did it. PSTD drives me into a fugue whenever that happens and I don't stop unless I'm restrained or the offender(s) are no longer moving.

Damn straight
All I can think is that I'm grateful she only killed herself and not some innocent stranger with her recklessness.
As soon as they mentioned the wreckage, I knew what was coming
HOW Could They NOT Blame The Judge???😢
Being a retired medic from an all volunteer squad for 28 years in a small country town, I would have taken photos of the wreck and mailed them to the judge with a note saying "Can you buy this one off?"
Story 2: a kid seemly having more common sense then the mom defies the natural order. Amazing how many people forget that most stores have camera and employees have smart phones with HD cameras.
Story 4: I'm going to go John Wick on that B!@#$% that abuse all these dogs.
Story 4: You and me both, I know I'm going to hell and when I do...I'll hunt him down and not even the devil is going to be able to save that horrible human.
Story 4, mother nature herself decided to go John Wick on him by giving him cancer. I wonder if he still thought he could do whatever he wants to animals or if he just turned into Cruella DeVille by the end.
Why the fuck didn't the called the Police? Well I guest is not like the church put kids safety in high regard anyway
I'd have gone all Joshua Graham on the assholes who abused those poor dogs. Anyone who harms an animal that way doesn't deserve ANY mercy.
I ended up with a Pomeranian that was a rescue from a puppy mill. My stepbrother and his wife had agreed to foster her. But she kept trying to bite my teenage nephew. They gave her to my mother, who discovered that she was only snapping at people who tried to pick her up from above. When I met little Miss Marshmallow, and picked her up by sliding my hand under her chest, it was love at first sight. She decided that I belonged to her. I miss my little "Cuisinart".
Cute name "Miss Marshmallow"
"Pomeranians are a small but hardy breed!" -Pom Pom
Story 4: OP is just Awesome!!! When the ED said "I can do whatever I want with the dogs" and "Gotta get rid of the runts somehow, they don't sell well." I was half expecting for OP to lunge at the guy.
Didn't happen. Cops wouldn't have let it.
@@MrCrunchytime Laws for treating dogs humanly (when they are legally property) vary from place to place if they exist at all. I think any kind of puppy mill would purposefully locate itself in unincorporated land in a county that does not have any such laws. That is, set up shop where it's legal!
With story three, that’s worth going to Small Claims Court in my opinion. Depending on the make, some monitors can get very expensive and cost thousands of dollars. So I’d say Damian and his mom have a very expensive lesson coming.
I’d take it to small claims court out of spite.
Facts. Some are as much as $2k for the higher end gaming monitors!
The mother should be made to pay even if it was a cheap monitor, she lets the kid act like that and should deal with the consequences.
The last story is a very sad ending to this video
Story 2: That's why I have wire lock for my laptop. Not that I would lend it out to a stranger EVER, but it makes taking off with it more of a challenge. And we all know that Karens don't care about your answer, they WILL take what they want!
I want an update to that story! Did Karen get arrested? What happened to her after she bolted?
the guy that saved the puppy makes me believe in humankind again!!👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
here in Brazil mistreat an animal, even dogs and cats, is considered ambiental crime and ends in jail!!
Stupid fixes itself. In this case we are lucky that when it happened nobody else was involved.
Karen from Story 2 can be charged w/ petty larcney easily as the laptop could have costed over 2k base never minding any clearances or other discounts
Story 2: It's a bizarre mentality, literally willing to ruin anyone and everyone to get what they want. It's extremely bad, and I've seen a few articles where it actually happened.
OP leaving their laptop with a stranger is bizarre ..... and totally irresponsible to boot. They kinda deserved the hassle they went though to retrieve their laptop from the thieving customer. I rather suspect that if police had gotten involved early on while trying to get it back the cops just might have told OP in the end that what they did was straight up stupid. Actually, I was half expecting the kid to spill a soda into the computer and then OP having an argument with the mother about paying for getting the computer fixed or replaced if the soda fried the computer. But, then, at 72 maybe I have more life lessons under my belt to know not to lend anything that I don't want potentially damaged or out right stolen. Hopefully, one will have learned a lot, including common sense, by the time they are an old fart ..... or fartess.
Story 3 is a great example why liability insurance is mandatory here in The Netherlands. If I accidentally knock over that antique vase of yours or drop my glass and permanently stain your couch, the cost of replacement or repair can be claimed at my insurance. No need to fight or go to court over it.
Seeing as how the TV wasn't broken "accidentally", I don't think insurance would have helped.
@@Feralwolf444 If it was an adult, yes. But unless malice can be proven they would have payed since minors are not considered to be liable for there actions.

Those who passionately hug by force, those who hurt children, those who hurt women, and those who hurt animals. In prison guys like that will be giving up the cheeks the first night. I hope he enjoyed his new cellmate
Bravo to the dog story.
That last story was terrible! I wish these entitled parents had the foresight to see that letting jr. do whatever they want or keeping them from experiencing the consequences of their behavior isn't doing their kid any favors!😕
Story 4 cheers for the hero and animal lover, rest peaceful little Darla after having a wonderful life filled with love and happiness
S5: No. No. That is BEYOND clueless. I hope her condition was a wake up call to him, and that he spent a LONG time wishing he'd never gotten her out of any consequences, because he sure can't make the laws of physics and biology turn a blind eye now.
"Just let me buy it off you". Seriously? Laptops cost hundreds, in some cases even thousands, of dollars. If she had that kind of money on hand, she wouldn't need to steal a laptop for her kid. She could just go buy one. Also, laptops aren't just game machines, like she seemed to think. Handing over a laptop would be handing over a lot of personal things, from photographs, to email log-ins, to banking information and more, for many people. This is also why you don't let others use your electronic devices. Everything, even an actual console like Switch or PlayStation, is connected to a variety of online accounts.
Story 3: it depends, on what kind of monitor it is, when it was bought etc. A really good gaming one can cost in excess of $200 and even a decent cheep monitor can be around $20+. Which given that it was hooked up to both the computer and a console as well as them even going to court over it to begin with. I’m going to say it’s probably high end. So yes small claims court would accept the suit.
200 would be minimum
A decent 4k or ultra wide goes for north of a grand
Regarding Karen and Damien after she left out, I dropped a dime to the police and said there’s a drunk woman, terrorizing the streets with her driving and give the license plate number.
The four-story almost made me physically ill
2nd story: OP should have made it clear in no uncertain terms “no you may not use my laptop” and packed it up without letting the kid use it. Don’t ever lend strangers valuable electronics, ever.
Sometimes you don’t lend certain so called friends anything either.
The laptop story has been around for years, but DOES remind me of what just happened this weekend. I work as a crew chief with a stagehand labor company, and we had a big load out Sunday into Monday. It was fraught with extreme stupidity as no one wanted to get out of our way and is a tale unto itself. Now I had a bunch of new hands working, and one of these kids had all of her stuff in a plastic bag she put on top of a vending machine near where I kept my paperwork with my steward...I am a working chief so rarely stay in one spot at any given time, helping as needed. Anyway, she comes and asks if I had seen her bag. I hadnt, but told her check with security. I make a round of the arena and stop in to see what happened. There are cameras EVERYWHERE in this building, and security is very friendly with us. Clear as day, there is one of my loaders, first looking through the bag..and a few minutes later, he grabs it and puts it in his pack. Of course I grab him, take him into the office with my steward for a witness, and he pulls her bag out saying if she had asked,mhe woukd have returned it. I had over fifty people there on my crew, plus all the clients and production people, how the hell is ANYONE going to know who to ask? Yeah, hes fired in my eyes..stagehands do not have much, and DEFINITELY do not need to be preyed on by fellow stagehands.
The last story took me back over 50 years to when I saw the road traffic film "Mechanised Death" at school. I think that there's no need to blame the judge father. He gave himself a lifelong sentence!
it's exactly because no one can "blame" the judge that this happened.
Puppy story THE BEST! My sister-in-law and I rescue dogs and cats where we live in Israel, and aholes getting such karma is a story I needed to hear right now. Thank you thank you thank you.
When it’s obvious that lack of parenting played a part in a child’s death, I think that the parent(s) should be charged with accomplice to involuntary manslaughter. They have to be punished and made an example of.
Hell yeah take her to smalls claims court that's the only way she'll learn how to freaking be a parent.
i was a street racer many, many years ago. we always made sure to find areas we could 100% shut off traffic in the middle of the night, and would move around frequently. not even leaving a driveway as a possible entrance to our "drag strip." sure i know how incredibly stupid this was now, but at least in my late teens and early 20's i had respect for others lives.
23:33 More dire Consequences for the Daddy Judge failing his morals than anything else could ever imagine. He can always just be an Ill Judge for all the rest of his children 😮💨😮💨😥😥😥
Perfect Karma for the animal abuser. And great job by OP in that story.
Story 3: depending on the type of monitor they had, it can cost anywhere between $500-$2000 since they said it was an expensive monitor. So small claims court sounds right
When their daddies bail them out always instead of letting them take the consequences of their actions what usually happens is they and daddy find out that they can’t be bailed out of death, or being sentenced a wheelchair for life.
Third-story a monitor is definitely worth going to court over because some of them can be quite expensive. I have seen computer monitors that run upwards of $400
Dude .. Giving the laptop was a idiot move .....
About the second story, it’s the best example of when niceness isn’t always a good thing☹️.
On the first story, absolutely some people DON'T need to be parents.
Just what I was thinking.
Mark P You are a hero.
Regarding the dog abuser unfortunately Darla probably wasn’t the first or only puppy these monsters tried to kill.
Story 1. It is child abandonment considering that a church is one of the four places you can leave a child if you don't want them, the other three being a hospital, a police station and a fire house.
The youth pastor should've called the cops the second Katie let him and OP know that the kid was there, those parents deserve to have that poor baby taken from them while they get locked up in jail! 😠😠😠
Story 4. I've never been more satisfied hearing the punishment of an animal abuser than with this story, this monster not only got 38 years but he also wasn't allowed to be let out earlier because of his cancer, so he's literally gonna rot in jail for what he did! Excellent! 😈😈😈
As for all the dogs and puppies, I am so happy to hear that every single one of them were able to find loving forever homes, including the one OP saved.
R.I.P. Darla, you sweet pupper. Hope you're having fun playing soccer with all the other pups in Heaven, sweet girl! 🙏🙏🕊️🕊️

Pandering to a child's or anyone else's tantrums is NEVER the way to solve the problem as that only rewards the bad behaviour. In the long term the behaviour worsens and you get an adult with ZERO boundaries on what is acceptable behaviour.
Story 1: I would have called the police for child abandonment and followed up with CPS.
So, what happened in the last story? The way it's presented, I'm guessing the kid managed to kill herself, and was dead on the scene, but if that's the case, why put her on a backboard and transport her to a Level 1 Trauma Center? Maybe the EMTs didn't have much to do, but in my area they'd probably call a private ambulance service to transport the body to the morgue. (There's also the issue of who pays for the transportation once the victim passes.)
Assumedly barely alive at that point and taken in to see if anything could be done. I imagine any payment would be made by her father regardless
Story 3: OP should have called the cops on Karen so she could be picked up for DUI.
The last story reminds me of a similar accident that happened where I live. Drunk teenager coming from a concert drove the wrong way up a one-way street and she slammed into the gas line of the house at the end. Seven emergency responders were too close to the house when it exploded, and the entire area had to be evacuated. Hundreds of people were displaced and 7 houses were damaged because of the explosion. The houses were heritage houses and owned by pillars of the community. Trials went on for years and ended up with the kid getting 3 years in prison. The accident caused 5 million in damages and the kid and her dad are sueing the venue for not stopping her from driving.
The dog story makes me soooo angry!!! Go OP.
As someone who has worked day care, I would have called the cops on them for abandonment as soon as they didn’t show up after service.
I am glad the a-hole puppy farm guy got what he deserved. No one in the world deserves to be treated like how he treated those puppies. My late dog was throwed out of a window when she was a puppy at highway/street speeds and hit the side of the vet hospital my mom was working at at the time. Her only major injury was that she lost one of knees (years later she was run over and lost one of her hips). She was 17 when she passed 3 years ago and she was one of the most awesome dogs ever. Karma, thank you for what you did to that a-hole.
For the third story, they should have called child protection services right away. If a parent is more interested in getting drunk than looking after their child, they do not deserve a child at all.
I would say if that mom whose son broke the monitor was that drunk, call the cops. Tell them that someone just left our house drunk and is now driving with her child in the car. Not only would she have to go through all of the legal proceedings regarding the DUI, but she would receive child endangerment charges as well.
If I was that youth pastor I would be calling CPS and telling him what these parents have been doing as part of being parents that they are willing to drop their children off anywhere and not have any form of contact.
I understand that they guy in story 2 was just being generous and didn't wanna deal with Karen initially, but this is precisely why I only let people I trust borrow my expensive things.
Fourth story. It was 38 years before he was eligible for parole. That means his actually sentence was probably much closer to 60 or 70 years.
Which is kind of crazy to me in some respects. I see people potentially destroying people's lives(both literally and figuritively) and constantly getting maybe a couple years at most so seeing them get that big a sentence is so odd sounding to me.
@@fluidwolf That's what happens when the court actually gives a shit.
@@fluidwolfyes, I was looking for comments on this. I just can’t see this part of the story being accurate (unfortunately, as it’s a deserved sentence!)
Story 4 brought tears to this old man's eyes.
Story 5: Pro-tip: I'm A.S.E. certified and I can tell you that the natural habitat OF the Ford Mustang (by design) is upside-down in a ditch regardless of model year OR driver experience! 16 year olds that recently got their license just make it ten times worse...
Those poor Animals! Bravo to OP for doing the right thing!
Story 3... the kid throws tantrums like that because his mother lets him get away with it. Some monitors can be in the 4-digit range...
Story 4 - OP, the Vetenary clinic and it employees and the officers are heroes in this story. Saving those poor pups from that ED and making sure that he can NEVER do anything like this again. God Bless you OP and everyone involved.
Story 4: "You want early release from prison? Sure. I'll personally drive you away...on the freeway....doing about 65 mph. No, you don't have to put on your seat belt...."
Story 2: This is exactly why I never let my computer equipment get out of arms reach...and why I hate other humans.
I am taking a grad IT classes and I do work at the local brewery in a food hall because I'm tired of being at home during the pandemic. Kids always think I'm playing a retro computer games since it is a gaming laptop (they last a long time). Most of the time the kids watch for a bit, the parents talk to me about it, and it's a positive interaction.
When it goes bad...it goes really bad. I've had people scream, rave, and try to snatch it from me so often I had to stop going.
The last story: Ahhh that sweet sweet karma. Thank goodness that no innocent person was hurt when that little twit decided to push her luck one more time.
My mom's friends son was playing vr and ended up smacking a controller at our TV. It was a complete accident, of course, and we're visiting from Florida so their mother wasn't there. We called, and right away, she replaced the TV without any hesitation.
If I saw anyone abusing animals like the dirtbag in the fourth story, I would not hesitate and instantly call the cops. That's just a shitty thing to do. If you have a pet, then that animal needs love, nurturing, food, etc. just like humans.
Don't laptops usually need Passwords just to use them, at least mine does. The moment you close it and open it you get a screen that requires a password. So this ladies kid couldn't have used it when they got home anyway.
Then she would have just thrown it away. Not like it cost her anything 🤷
Criminals are not very smart people.
Well, you can deactivate that function.
There are multiple ways to get around the password, depending a little on OS but one of them is simple getting the OS boot in Safe Mode with Command Prompt. Only the most nessescarry parts of the OS are booted. no password required here. Then changing the password is only a few commands away and its easy to google.
@@XSDStitchit depends
Boot should work, is booting from an usb drive, and install a new operating system (but it's deletes the data)
3rd story: OMG-how could anyone ever do that to a helpless animal! That's cruel!!!😢
4th story actually
While the last story is sad, it's something that she chose herself. Dad that enabling her just make matters worse. And knowing the fact that he had to bury his own daughter because his action will haunt him for the rest of his life.
A monitor is DEFINITELY worth going to small claims court over, especially an expensive one, like OP said. OP mentioned they have a lot of photos, which suggests they could be a photographer, and to have a monitor that is high quality for photo editing, and calibrated to be true-to-life can cost hundreds, even thousands of dollars.
That last story was a preventable tragedy in every way. I’m sure the moment the judge was asked to identify his daughter’s remains, I’m sure he realized a sh-tstorm was heading his way. The fact he had a double standard would immediately give every defendant that went before him on vehicle related charges a legitimate opportunity for appeal. That in turn would bring attention from the state bar association and judicial standards committee.
Fred never mentions if he got his laptop back.
My friend and I had totally been known to leave our kids at church and go for brunch. We didn't go for the whole morning but we seriously needed that brunch. :)
Story 4: Who DOES that to a puppy, or any animal for that matter? Screw these people!
Unfortunately some people see them as merely a commodity. Old mate was running a puppy mill after all.
Story 2: OP should know better by now!!! I have a soft spot for kids myself, but I'm not going to give their parents the slightest opportunity to F*** me over. THIS one, I'm afraid, is on the OP because they REALLY should know Karen better by now...
Story 4 as a dog owner, I’m so glad that Darla lived a long and happy life. 18 years is such a long time for a dog. She makes me think of my dog Stitch (named after Stitch from Lelo and Stitch). We’ve had her since she was a puppy and she is 16 now. But she’s doing really well for her age. Heck she doesn’t even look old at all, and barely has any gray on her. She gets walks regularly, She probably doesn’t have much time left, so we are doing the best we can to keep her comfortable. When your dog lives for so long, that bond is irreplaceable.
RIP Darla you will be missed and thank you for keeping OP happy.
Depending on the size and resolution of the monitor from story three it could easily be over $1000 for it
Absolutely. Computer monitors have a higher pixel density than TVs and the one in question had the equivalent resolution of a 4K UHD at least 50" in diagonal length.
I think the father probably regretted it for the rest of his life or will regret that he did what he did. Had he known what was going to happen he would have done things differently. But at least no one else got hurt from the accident.
That is the price of corruption.
Even a curved-screen hi-res monitor only goes for $80 to $150 at Best Buy; even less if you catch it on sale. Definitely not worth court costs.
Worth every penny of Karen costs though. Let them think they can get away with abusing your property and they will continue to treat your property and everybody else's like it doesn't matter if they damage it.
This is how I got my kitten Buttercup, someone through him out of their car going well over 65 on the highway. He recently passed away at the age of 10 and I miss him so much
My now ex boyfriend lived in the country, and while driving home from his house, a puppy ran across the back road in front of me. I stopped and scooped him up. Unlike Darla, this was a big lanky pup. When I got home, Mom would not let me keep him, but a quick phone call to my boyfriend's family resulted in his being allowed to live there. His name was Scotty. Hearing about a puppy in the road, my boyfriend's brother and wife went searching and found two more, soon to be Duke and Duchess. Sadly Scotty caught Parvo and died shortly thereafter, and Duke as well, but Duchess survived and became our dog. She lived longer than our relationship did, but I continued to share the costs of shots, fixing, and food with his family for the rest of her life.
Hell yes it is worth taking then to snall claims court for a monitor. What kibd of question is that? Karens needs to learn
Story 4: I feel like a just end for the entitled d-bag would be where he is fed to a pack of starving dogs as opposed to just being thrown out of a moving vehicle.
