Hey Emma real quick where was the torn frenulum? A frenulum is just a thin string of connection tissue so there's a bit of a difference between the frenulum in the middle of your top lip inside your mouth and the frenulum by your genitals.
I never get the shower thing. My son wet bed once which was my fault as i left his nappy off and he put himself for a nap. Cold showers dont clean urine smells properly. Surely. My eldest only wet bed 3 or 4 times in her life and i was too tired i put her in my bed until her matress dried out etc from what i remember. And boy i struggled back then but i never put them in a cold shower. I never get it
@@laurensparanormalreviewsan860 What do you mean? You don't get the shower thing. It's not used to actually clean them. First of all, actually, cleaning a human body is not about the heat. Or temperature of the water and because clearly we can't stand water hot enough. That would actually kill any bacteria. Or germs, it's about rinsing that bacteria. Or germs or dirt off of your body? That's what the water does. But second of all, it's not about actually cleaning them. It's about a parent (caregiver) being cruel, and torturing them, and punishing them for something they're not truly in control of. 😢
@@lizf1353 A torn frenulum in the mouth, either lip or tongue is a big red safeguarding flag as usually means facial trauma - just like all injuries it can have a genuine cause, but very often it’s intentional
I would even go as far as saying he can't do his job anymore if he gets so numbed by all the tragic cases that he doesn't feel anything about them. It's important that people who work in our justice system are, yes, objective and just, but also empathic and not completely numb and robotic.
This infuriates me. I can’t get approved to foster because I have been treated for bipolar ocd, and ptsd. I have worked hard on becoming emotionally healthy, always take my meds, and have a system in place that makes sure that I am on track. The irony is that, because I have sought treatment and conquered my demons, I cannot be approved for foster care, but someone with multiple severe issues and/or personality disorders, who hide their problems or refuse treatment, can get approved and often go on to abuse, and even murder, the children left in their care. Poor kids.
Also wondered what kind of home they lived in? How far away were the neighbors. Surely the kids were heard shouting even their own kids would have cried and shout.
As a child live through the abusive foster care in the 60. It breaks my heart to hear how often these stories still happen. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being a voice for these precious children
This happened less than 50 miles from where I live and it wasn't covered the way you covered it. Thank you for all you put into your videos. RIP, Charlie.
I live 25 min from where this happened and this is the FIRST TIME I’m hearing about this?! I’m mind blown. I’ll admit I stay as far from the news as I can, but how have I not heard anything at all about this? Crazy.
Rest in perfect peace Charlie. Thank you for giving this sweet little boy a voice with such empathy and compassion. As always, outstanding research Emma and always brilliantly told. Such a heartbreaking story, it makes me feel embarrassed to be part of the human race. 💔
Poor Charlie 💔 How DARE they lay a single finger on that precious little boy. Poor kid was failed by everyone around him who should’ve protected him. I hope his brother can heal and erase any memories of his awful start in life 💔 Thanks for covering Charlie’s story…we need to hear it and remember his name x
We passed, but we were MADE to go through it. We have social services input with our grandson for 13yrs!!! 🤬 ....my son now has sole custody of his son - thank God!! But IF my son 'didn't work out' they do not necessarily place the children with the grandparents, hence we had to go through this process. I've NOTHING good to say about social services - they let our grandson 'endure' 13yrs of crap!! Child protection register TWICE for neglect??? Please!?!?!?! Fight for your children, grandchildren - it took along time, but we got there - eventually!
@alisonjenni, I am so sorry you all had to go through that, and you are so right about social services. They're always claiming they want to keep kids with family, yet when they have this opportunity, they decide they know best and put the kids with people they don't even know or have never even met. It makes 0 sense to me at all. You are the grandparents that will give them the love and care they could ever want. I'm just so happy that you finally got the children where they belong, with you wonderful grandparents. God bless you all!😇😇🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Statistics prove men are better as single dads than single mum's. Social services are so sexist. My son's baby mum is a drug addict, has a cleaner paid for by the state. She's only 22 years old. Her mum has the child and is paid ,£100's to look after her grandson. My son can't have him because he lives at home and he's 22. His drug test was clean. He went to court and could have him for 1 hour in a contact center every 6 weeks. The child's mum 3 times a week? The grandma is medically diagnosed schizophrenia. Social services want her to have him. Also we think her husband was involved in a serious crime, new identity, no family. Doesn't want to go to Liverpool but very interested in Liverpool. Said he's from down south but no accent. Violent when drunk. He's looking after our grandson. Social services are corupt
My adult brothers spleen was split when a LOADER fell off a trailer and onto him...as someone who was in foster care also ..those poor boys deserved soo much better 😪
Whoever says Greene has human right, needs to remember so did little Charlie! That poor baby was tortured and murdered!. Imagine as an adult feeling the pain of them injuries, now imagine being 4 years old feeling that pain. Charlie was failed so horrifically by the people who were put into the position to provide love and care for him and his brother. Both Dequan and Latrisha deserve to rot in hell for what they did. RIP Charlie, fly high you little Angel. XX
Awe!!! When you started passionately speaking Chase crawls straight to your lap, taking a quick cuddle B4 sitting his rear down and head straight to your cheek for the connection!!! Play it back Chase comes right to you to love his mama❤️❤️❤️
This case is just so heartbreaking I will never understand any kind of abuse towards children, elderly, or animals , I am so sorry for Charlie and his brother I am sad that in this day and age in 2024 this horrible stuff is still going on , I pray that Charlie is at peace and that his brother is being taken care of and being well loved someone , Lord I ask you please to put your loving arms around these two beautiful boys and let them feel all your love that you have for them please continue to keep Charlie’s brother protected from such evil ever happening to him again , I’m sending lots of love hugs and prayers to you 🥰
Oh Emma your presentation of this tragic case shows how much compassion and love you have for the little ones that have no voice. Your words at the end were so beautiful that it moved me to tears. I hope and pray that everything you said happens, and that Charlie and his brother are reunited one day in a beautiful place where there is no pain, but only joy and happiness. Thank you for being so caring and kind. 🥰
I haven’t got through your whole video I’m at the hospital at the moment with my son. My baby is 4 autistic and non verbal and he’s not undergoing diagnosis for epilepsy and when I tell you the seizure he had frightened the living day lights out of me, phoning the emergency services I couldn’t get my words out, how parents are so cold and void to situations where it involves there child I can’t wrap my mind around it. My kids are my life, the reason why I exist. I’ve lost my own mum and when I tell you they’ve saved me. It’s crazy
Oh come ON - how the fnck do people like this become foster parents??? Who is making these decisions? Whoever authorised them should be sent to prison and held accountable for their part in little Charlie's death. I'm so so angry 😠 😡
Emma, please consider covering the case of Orrin and Orson West, siblings who also lost their lives at the hands of foster parents who were meant to protect and care for them, and also used the cover of the pandemic to further cover up their awful crimes against these children. I’m sure I’m not the only person who will have mentioned these names to you before. The depth of research you undertake, and your delivery style is unparalleled and it’s unbelievable you don’t have more subscribers. I know you would do these boys proud and give their story more publicity ❤
My kid's we're in the foster care system and every day I then and now has broken me they got took due to domestic violence and social services promised to keep them all together but they didn't 2 are adults now and I'm so proud of all three Marshall aged 7; at the time now 21 Macy who was 7 now 19 and Molly aged 3 now 14 I love you all so much and I love spending time with you every single day love mum x
I will NEVER be able to understand hurting a child. Thank you for bringing these hard subjects to light. If ignored because they are unpleasant, then no one is held accountable. 😢😮😢
Again a horrific case of the death of an innocent little boy. I am not a professional in the social services system but besides having the social workers come to check on the children, I think there should also be a law that these foster children should be seen at least once a month by a doctor to make sure they are being cared for properly and that they are healthy and free of bruises, breaks or any other injuries. thank you Emma for shining a light on little Charlie and his brother and the pain and tragedy they went through. Rest in peace Charlie!
I will never be able to understand how these people are capable of harming children. I'm glad you cover so many of these cases, because I certainly wouldn't know anything about the vast majority of them without it. Some channels I follow even avoid them, because the cases are so upsetting to them. They are upsetting and these kids deserve to have their names known. I'm happily child-free but I still have little children in my life. A couple of months ago I sat with a friend's 5-year-old because he wanted to make a card for me and wanted me to choose the stickers for it. Last summer I gave a 3-year-old a lynx plushie because she loves big cats and lynx is her favourite one. I have never given anyone a better gift, I swear, after seeing that little girl hug that plushie so tightly and smile. That's what children of that age are like, and the thought of *stomping* on them, beating them and torturing them... People who are capable of doing that are sick and broken. I'm just a little confused about that comment about "certain left-leaning people". Maybe it's the fact that I'm not from the UK so that I don't know what you're referring to, but I personally always vote for the left in my country and absolutely like a judge who shows how disgusted he is by the actions of these monsters. I don't know any leftists who would oppose to a judge showing humanity.
He just wanted the $2,000 a month for fostering, nothing else. And she was complicit, or she didnt have the balls to ever tell him anything different. Neither of them have any empathy.
I have spleen issues and a flare up has had me as a 50 year old in tears this whole weekend with the pain nevermind the horrific injuries this poor little boy received. To counterbalance my 10 year old is also now unwell and suddenly my pain is nothing as I take care of her. Still hurts unbelievably but when it comes to kids they take priority and you put yourself second :)
My family adopted me from foster care, was 4… taken to MEMPHIS, abused, neglected, sexually abused, left to die. Cops never helped. I just buried my gpa, father and step father. I’m 23 and now completely under the rule of a lovely 75 year old woman who let this all happen
I cannot fathom doing things like this to any living being, ESPECIALLY anyone helpless or at the mercy of my size and strength. I just don't understand people like this. Which I'm grateful for...it means I'm nothing like them. I just can't believe I have to share the planet with people like this.
Emma, you totally did this story and that precious baby boy justice. This case ripped my heart out. We have a 4yo grandson, and as I listened, I could only see his smiling face 😢 I can't understand all of the evil in this world. Praying his brother has a wonderful life now. RIP sweet angel ❤
A difficult watch, but so important Emma that you keep shining a light on man's inhumanity. Maybe one day, social services will be staffed enough to follow logical protocols, and I agree, Covid gave a lot of people an excuse to be lazy
I don't know how to find anything good in cases of child abuse. Anyways, I do think that the Judge's brief speech at the end brings a little hope. Let's give our respect to Judge Sypniewski. There should be more judges like him.
I have a 4 year old son who I absolutely just adore more than anything in this world the other night I was walking down the hallway didn't see him come out of the bedroom and accidentally bumped into him when he turned around and said sorry Mommy I cried a little bit and most definitely reassured him that he did absolutely nothing wrong and had nothing to be sorry for I felt so bad that he thought he was in the wrong for bumping into me vice versa me bumping into him we bumped into each other but 4 year olds are so much fun I absolutely love waking up in the morning and the first thing I see is my son's beautiful face and here is beautiful voice Mommy I love you it is the best most absolute perfect and most wonderful thing ever I don't understand how somebody could destroy that or even want to destroy something like that
Are we not gonna talk about the race of the children and the race of the foster parents? I know if it were the other way around, we'd be having a chat about race. 😢 this is horrific. All children deserve love.
Oh my I love the way you tell a story and go off on a tangent it's soo funny...it's this that helps us get through these horrific stories ...so please don't stop!!!
I was a child who was quiet down by my parents; they didn’t want me to “have to go through a trial or police interrogation” (I’m guessing it would damage my narcissistic mother’s image). As an adult I’ve wondered how many other children he went on to molest after me. (My 9 age old self repressed the memories for 6 years. When they resurfaced I asked my parents to be able to talk to someone about it, but I was still denied. I have now have gone through trauma therapy)
3:13 Hello Emma! I would really, really love it if you covered, whenever you can, the case of Larry & Carri Williams. It’s a case about child abuse and the children envolved have had no one to get their case known...it is not fair! I know you are the person to cover that case, you’re amazing, the best, when it comes to cover those kind of cases. I am a huge fan, never miss a case ever since I subscribed. Regards from Nicaragua 🇳🇮.
As a legal secretary, I had the unfortunate task of working on cases involving child death at the hands of foster parents when the children's biological parents were taking good care of them. They may have fallen on some bad times, but the parents were struggling to care for their children and loving them. The state has GOT to step up to the plate and more closely investigate if the parents are truly not providing for them well enough. Take the case of Terrell Peterson, for example. His mother had issues but loved her child when he was taken from her and placed in the home of his murderer. So wrong!
I hope the mother feels so guilty every single day for not giving families information. That action caused the poor kid his life. I think some parents like to say there's absolutely no family thinking they'll be let go since they are all the kids have.
I agree 2nd deg is bullshit. prolonged abuse of a child has no other outcome but to result in death. Just because the guy didnt want him to die doesnt mean he was worried about charlies possible death. The only reason he wanted charlie alive was so that he could continue torturing him endlessly and stay out of trouble.
Foster carers/carers/parents should be given money from the government by filtering/monitoring it directly and pay it into specific things ie food,clothing etc so the carers cannot get hold of it/lands in their bank
Here in the US, they now have statistics to show that being in a foster home is statistically more likely to damage you than staying in the home of your biological parents even when they are neglectful or abusive. The high rates of abuse coupled with the attachment and emotional problems that come from being ripped away from the people you originally bonded with almost always cause horrible outcomes. Not saying I know the answer but someone should be doing something to tear down the current CPS/foster structure.
I couldn't agree more. I don't know about the US but I was "in care" in the UK in the 60s and just two years in that system caused more long-term damage than my abusive, narcissist mother ever did.
That makes me sick to hear because I was a foster parent to a little autistic child who was removed because she was neglected. She was left in over loaded diapers with rashes so bad she had an infection when we got her, both parents were meth users letting random men around the little girl, they od’d in front of the children in the home and yet they say that’s a safer environment than foster care? It is a broken system I know, but if this is true then we are failing these children more so than ever before. I ended up adopting that little girl and she is a beautiful, happy little 4 yr old who is now in a loving home with family who love and appreciate her presence in our lives everyday. Bio mom even has a relationship with her because she is clean and working on staying healthy now, and is happy to share the role as mom with me ❤
Society is deeply thankful for the foster parents who are able to step in and step up to a situation in the way you report. Unfortunately, there are so many other factors at play despite your hard work: case workers who don’t care and who have minimal knowledge about the mental conditions that are rampant among foster kids. Supervisors who diligently seek to stretch cases out and involve as many government paid players as possible, “services” that are supposed to be helping bio parents and children to reunite but have been developed by people who seem to have the intellectual capacity of 3rd graders. There seems to be almost zero accountability for case workers who willfully lie or do their jobs in a slipshod way,
I have watched nearly all your videos and this is another that has me sobbing. Your stories always cause me such sadness but some absolutely break me and this is one of those.
😢Poor Charlie, how he smiles in that swing, my heart breaks. And his brother has to live with this all his life, my god these poor wee little ones😢😢😢😢 RIP Charlie and may his brother get only love and compassion in the future. Props to that judge, I loved how emotional he got!
It is good when people within the judicial/law enforcement system show human reactions. Sheriff Judd from Florida is just the best! He never holds back. I watch a lot of true crime yet i know his name immediately:)
Hi. I love you're style of video. Straight to the point and lots of info without sensationalising things. I still have loads to watch. I'm also wondering where you source your blank hoodies from.
Whats more horrific is the extra need for extra love being whatever the reason those babies woke up one day with no mommy no daddy no familiar and instead of extra love the got pure hate!! Not a moment of madness a split decision an "accident" that poor baby had been BEATEN daily for the entire 3 months
That judge!God bless him!!!! Bless him over and over!the fact there was any controversy over his presentation of verdict..what lunacy !this world is screwed!!
I believe what you believe Emma. And that’s when true judgement will be given to these two. Thanks for getting thru this harrowing tale to tell it to us, it must have been hard. You certainly did justice to Charlie and he is in loving hands now. ❤
I have a 4yr old son right now. He's my child number 4. I thought I had child care down by the time I had child number 4... My others are currently 20yo f, 13yo s, and 9yo f. None of them made me ready for my son now! He's something else in the most fantastic and frustrating (at times) ways. He's non-verbal for the most part. He's got around 25-30 words and autistic. I love him more than life itself. He goes 90 miles an hour all day long. He went to preschool last year and either the teacher or the t.a. actually had to had 24/7 hands on him just to keep order. I actually felt bad for them and the rest of the class because he needs all the constant attention. But as i they love him. He's usually covered in bruised. Not due to anything I'm doing or not doing. He's just a ball of craziness and he gets himself in the craziest positions. He's got a high threshold for pain due to his autism, so slowing down isn't in his toolbox. Never once have his teachers felt that he is beaten. There's a difference between a childs behavior when they are abused or just a jack-in-the-box!
Hey Emma, just here to show my suport and tell you that I just adore the way you cover every case with respect and based on information about every individual involved. I also would like to ask for you to cover Logan Marr's case in the future, I would love to know your perspective and how you'll tell us about this tragic case where the system failed this girl and her mother. Wish you the best!
I genuinely think that those people choose to foster children just in order to torture them, sadists need defenceless victims at their disposal, unfortunately. And I'm sure they weren't good parents to their biological children either, how could they? Poor little boy, it's beyond horrific. I can't even imagine how traumatized his brother must be... 💔
I've seen a lot of cases involving a child death that upset me, but little Charlie's case had me in floods of tears, fly high little one no one will ever hurt you again, you will never be forgotten ❤
This is a horribly sad story. I hope his older brother finds the love and healing he needs. I wish both of these monsters are given the treatment child killers get in prison.
It genuinely just cannot compute in my mind how *anyone* could harm a child! A CHILD! My 5yo is the most wonderful, precious being on this entire planet and I feel blessed to have the privilege of being her Mummy. All children should be treated as the absolute wonder's they are. This monster is definitely getting an express Hellevator! The judge is, as we Scots say, a belter! Go on yersel

I think that’s fair considering you suffer from so many mental health issues, sorry
We are seeing many more judges voicing their true feelings which is brilliant.
As they say, “It takes a village to raise a child”…We continue to FAIL our children all across the world! 😢
Also wondered what kind of home they lived in? How far away were the neighbors. Surely the kids were heard shouting even their own kids would have cried and shout.

Imo Emma helps us mourn for these souls.

I believe you lose those rights when you take them from someone else.
I wish more judges would be so real! Tons of respect to him. The only voice for Charlie. RIP gorgeous boy. Fly high with the angels.💔
I don’t know how you manage to

Emma, please consider covering the case of Orrin and Orson West, siblings who also lost their lives at the hands of foster parents who were meant to protect and care for them, and also used the cover of the pandemic to further cover up their awful crimes against these children. I’m sure I’m not the only person who will have mentioned these names to you before. The depth of research you undertake, and your delivery style is unparalleled and it’s unbelievable you don’t have more subscribers. I know you would do these boys proud and give their story more publicity ❤
Agreed, they need to be remembered.
That is a very sad case 😭😭
Yes those was my friends god babies im from Bakersfield
This was harrowing. Thank goodness for people like that judge. Thank you for covering this case and paying tribute to both the boys.
I love when you add clips of the court cases to your videos. As always you do such a thorough job thank you for sharing Emma!
My kid's we're in the foster care system and every day I then and now has broken me they got took due to domestic violence and social services promised to keep them all
together but they didn't 2 are adults now and I'm so proud of all three Marshall aged 7; at the time now 21 Macy who was 7 now 19 and Molly aged 3 now 14 I love you all so much and I love spending time with you every single day love mum x
If every social worker was like you we would probably have a lot more positive stories!!
I will NEVER be able to understand hurting a child. Thank you for bringing these hard subjects to light. If ignored because they are unpleasant, then no one is held accountable. 😢😮😢
Conflating foster care with the profit motive is a main problem
It's not the main one for why our system (in America) is so fucked but it's certainly a problem 😢
The money should at least be paid in food, clothing etc directly and a stipend to carers with monthly checking and mandatory Dr visits.
The spleen stores a huge reservoir of blood. Little Charlie bled to death. I feel so sad for his brother too
4:40 It’s terrible!
53:30 Emma you nailed this!! I completely agree
Your kitty has the happiest look on his face
Again a horrific case of the death of an innocent little boy. I am not a professional in the social services system but besides having the social workers come to check on the children, I think there should also be a law that these foster children should be seen at least once a month by a doctor to make sure they are being cared for properly and that they are healthy and free of bruises, breaks or any other injuries. thank you Emma for shining a light on little Charlie and his brother and the pain and tragedy they went through. Rest in peace Charlie!
I will never be able to understand how these people are capable of harming children. I'm glad you cover so many of these cases, because I certainly wouldn't know anything about the vast majority of them without it. Some channels I follow even avoid them, because the cases are so upsetting to them. They are upsetting and these kids deserve to have their names known.
I'm happily child-free but I still have little children in my life. A couple of months ago I sat with a friend's 5-year-old because he wanted to make a card for me and wanted me to choose the stickers for it. Last summer I gave a 3-year-old a lynx plushie because she loves big cats and lynx is her favourite one. I have never given anyone a better gift, I swear, after seeing that little girl hug that plushie so tightly and smile. That's what children of that age are like, and the thought of *stomping* on them, beating them and torturing them... People who are capable of doing that are sick and broken.
I'm just a little confused about that comment about "certain left-leaning people". Maybe it's the fact that I'm not from the UK so that I don't know what you're referring to, but I personally always vote for the left in my country and absolutely like a judge who shows how disgusted he is by the actions of these monsters. I don't know any leftists who would oppose to a judge showing humanity.
He just wanted the $2,000 a month for fostering, nothing else. And she was complicit, or she didnt have the balls to ever tell him anything different. Neither of them have any empathy.
I have spleen issues and a flare up has had me as a 50 year old in tears this whole weekend with the pain nevermind the horrific injuries this poor little boy received. To counterbalance my 10 year old is also now unwell and suddenly my pain is nothing as I take care of her. Still hurts unbelievably but when it comes to kids they take priority and you put yourself second :)
Thank you Emma for this story. So heartbreaking and can never understand how anyone can be capable of such horror against another especially a child
My family adopted me from foster care, was 4… taken to MEMPHIS, abused, neglected, sexually abused, left to die. Cops never helped. I just buried my gpa, father and step father. I’m 23 and now completely under the rule of a lovely 75 year old woman who let this all happen
Those poor children were removed from one bad situation only to be put into a worse situation. Where’s the humanity in this couple
Where's the checks from cps on these so called foster parents
That cat, what a darling! How she doesn't pet it is beyond me. I don't have that kind of self control 😂
I cannot fathom doing things like this to any living being, ESPECIALLY anyone helpless or at the mercy of my size and strength. I just don't understand people like this. Which I'm grateful for...it means I'm nothing like them. I just can't believe I have to share the planet with people like this.
Excellent analysis Emma, thank you for your time, you are much appreciated. xx
Your cat is very sweet. She sees you getting upset and comes over to comfort you
Love cats, love catty. But one should not put up with the catty.
@@therespectedlex9794what?
@Leigh69 Catty means deliberately hurtful in what someone says, or does, like being spiteful.
Chase is so affectionate. Terrible story to hear. 😢
Beautiful 💕
Such another sad case. RIP little Charlie. On a lighter note I love how adoring your cat looks at you
Emma, you totally did this story and that precious baby boy justice. This case ripped my heart out. We have a 4yo grandson, and as I listened, I could only see his smiling face 😢 I can't understand all of the evil in this world. Praying his brother has a wonderful life now. RIP sweet angel ❤
A difficult watch, but so important Emma that you keep shining a light on man's inhumanity. Maybe one day, social services will be staffed enough to follow logical protocols, and I agree, Covid gave a lot of people an excuse to be lazy
I don't know how to find anything good in cases of child abuse. Anyways, I do think that the Judge's brief speech at the end brings a little hope. Let's give our respect to Judge Sypniewski. There should be more judges like him.
I have a 4 year old son who I absolutely just adore more than anything in this world the other night I was walking down the hallway didn't see him come out of the bedroom and accidentally bumped into him when he turned around and said sorry Mommy I cried a little bit and most definitely reassured him that he did absolutely nothing wrong and had nothing to be sorry for I felt so bad that he thought he was in the wrong for bumping into me vice versa me bumping into him we bumped into each other but 4 year olds are so much fun I absolutely love waking up in the morning and the first thing I see is my son's beautiful face and here is beautiful voice Mommy I love you it is the best most absolute perfect and most wonderful thing ever I don't understand how somebody could destroy that or even want to destroy something like that
Fly high and free little Charlie... God Bless to his brother and family😢😢😢❤
Are we not gonna talk about the race of the children and the race of the foster parents? I know if it were the other way around, we'd be having a chat about race. 😢 this is horrific. All children deserve love.
Agreed
Thats what I was thinking before I came to the comments. Glad you said it. I feel like that's why they had no remorse. Those types walk in every race.
Love watching Emma do these
Oh my I love the way you tell a story and go off on a tangent it's soo funny...it's this that helps us get through these horrific stories ...so please don't stop!!!
Judge was on point " Good luck with that' couldn't of put it better myself 😂
Chase coming to cuddle you when you got really passionate about this case, was so sweet ❤❤❤
I was a child who was quiet down by my parents; they didn’t want me to “have to go through a trial or police interrogation” (I’m guessing it would damage my narcissistic mother’s image).
As an adult I’ve wondered how many other children he went on to molest after me.
(My 9 age old self repressed the memories for 6 years. When they resurfaced I asked my parents to be able to talk to someone about it, but I was still denied. I have now have gone through trauma therapy)
Absolutely heart breaking. Poor Charlie. 😢❤❤❤
3:13 Hello Emma! I would really, really love it if you covered, whenever you can, the case of Larry & Carri Williams. It’s a case about child abuse and the children envolved have had no one to get their case known...it is not fair! I know you are the person to cover that case, you’re amazing, the best, when it comes to cover those kind of cases. I am a huge fan, never miss a case ever since I subscribed.
Regards from Nicaragua 🇳🇮.
As a legal secretary, I had the unfortunate task of working on cases involving child death at the hands of foster parents when the children's biological parents were taking good care of them. They may have fallen on some bad times, but the parents were struggling to care for their children and loving them. The state has GOT to step up to the plate and more closely investigate if the parents are truly not providing for them well enough. Take the case of Terrell Peterson, for example. His mother had issues but loved her child when he was taken from her and placed in the home of his murderer. So wrong!
I hope the mother feels so guilty every single day for not giving families information. That action caused the poor kid his life. I think some parents like to say there's absolutely no family thinking they'll be let go since they are all the kids have.
I agree 2nd deg is bullshit. prolonged abuse of a child has no other outcome but to result in death. Just because the guy didnt want him to die doesnt mean he was worried about charlies possible death. The only reason he wanted charlie alive was so that he could continue torturing him endlessly and stay out of trouble.
Foster carers/carers/parents should be given money from the government by filtering/monitoring it directly and pay it into specific things ie food,clothing etc so the carers cannot get hold of it/lands in their bank
Here in the US, they now have statistics to show that being in a foster home is statistically more likely to damage you than staying in the home of your biological parents even when they are neglectful or abusive. The high rates of abuse coupled with the attachment and emotional problems that come from being ripped away from the people you originally bonded with almost always cause horrible outcomes. Not saying I know the answer but someone should be doing something to tear down the current CPS/foster structure.
It definitely needs a complete overhaul!
I couldn't agree more. I don't know about the US but I was "in care" in the UK in the 60s and just two years in that system caused more long-term damage than my abusive, narcissist mother ever did.
That makes me sick to hear because I was a foster parent to a little autistic child who was removed because she was neglected. She was left in over loaded diapers with rashes so bad she had an infection when we got her, both parents were meth users letting random men around the little girl, they od’d in front of the children in the home and yet they say that’s a safer environment than foster care? It is a broken system I know, but if this is true then we are failing these children more so than ever before.
I ended up adopting that little girl and she is a beautiful, happy little 4 yr old who is now in a loving home with family who love and appreciate her presence in our lives everyday. Bio mom even has a relationship with her because she is clean and working on staying healthy now, and is happy to share the role as mom with me ❤
@jill2675 that is a wonderful outcome.Im sure there are more situations like yours that are foster parents like you rather than these 2 monsters
Society is deeply thankful for the foster parents who are able to step in and step up to a situation in the way you report. Unfortunately, there are so many other factors at play despite your hard work: case workers who don’t care and who have minimal knowledge about the mental conditions that are rampant among foster kids. Supervisors who diligently seek to stretch cases out and involve as many government paid players as possible, “services” that are supposed to be helping bio parents and children to reunite but have been developed by people who seem to have the intellectual capacity of 3rd graders. There seems to be almost zero accountability for case workers who willfully lie or do their jobs in a slipshod way,
I have watched nearly all your videos and this is another that has me sobbing. Your stories always cause me such sadness but some absolutely break me and this is one of those.
Sounds like a video of my child’s life , so much crying … thank for this insight 🙏🏼xo
😢Poor Charlie, how he smiles in that swing, my heart breaks. And his brother has to live with this all his life, my god these poor wee little ones😢😢😢😢 RIP Charlie and may his brother get only love and compassion in the future.
Props to that judge, I loved how emotional he got!
It is good when people within the judicial/law enforcement system show human reactions. Sheriff Judd from Florida is just the best! He never holds back. I watch a lot of true crime yet i know his name immediately:)
Hi. I love you're style of video. Straight to the point and lots of info without sensationalising things. I still have loads to watch. I'm also wondering where you source your blank hoodies from.
So heartbreaking. Rest in peace, little one.
Is it you tube editing the word abuse ? as Ive never heard any of your vids get censored. Love you channel em! ❤
This was so sad, that poor child, failed by everyone around him 😢
Whats more horrific is the extra need for extra love being whatever the reason those babies woke up one day with no mommy no daddy no familiar and instead of extra love the got pure hate!! Not a moment of madness a split decision an "accident" that poor baby had been BEATEN daily for the entire 3 months
39:07 totally agree Emma. Lazy, ridiculous behaviours during those ridiculous lockdowns.
I love it, when Chase tries to calm you down.
That judge!God bless him!!!! Bless him over and over!the fact there was any controversy over his presentation of verdict..what lunacy !this world is screwed!!
Emma what can I say... You have an incredible channel your content is top notch. Keep it up. Watching from Canada.Cheers
Thanks Emma as always a brilliant story.
How sad. It's hard to face the evil in the world.
Hi Emma and your beautiful family, and hi chase ❤️. Your videos are so special because of your passion x
I believe what you believe Emma. And that’s when true judgement will be given to these two. Thanks for getting thru this harrowing tale to tell it to us, it must have been hard. You certainly did justice to Charlie and he is in loving hands now. ❤
really liked the explanations about child behavior body/mind. I hope you incorporate a bit more of that in your videos
And it stuns me to think people are stupid enough to think they can get away with it aswell 😢
I have a 4yr old son right now. He's my child number 4. I thought I had child care down by the time I had child number 4... My others are currently 20yo f, 13yo s, and 9yo f. None of them made me ready for my son now! He's something else in the most fantastic and frustrating (at times) ways. He's non-verbal for the most part. He's got around 25-30 words and autistic. I love him more than life itself. He goes 90 miles an hour all day long. He went to preschool last year and either the teacher or the t.a. actually had to had 24/7 hands on him just to keep order. I actually felt bad for them and the rest of the class because he needs all the constant attention. But as i they love him. He's usually covered in bruised. Not due to anything I'm doing or not doing. He's just a ball of craziness and he gets himself in the craziest positions. He's got a high threshold for pain due to his autism, so slowing down isn't in his toolbox. Never once have his teachers felt that he is beaten. There's a difference between a childs behavior when they are abused or just a jack-in-the-box!
Hey Emma, just here to show my suport and tell you that I just adore the way you cover every case with respect and based on information about every individual involved. I also would like to ask for you to cover Logan Marr's case in the future, I would love to know your perspective and how you'll tell us about this tragic case where the system failed this girl and her mother. Wish you the best!
Another great episode that made my Sunday. Thank you, Emma! And we even got a Chase visit, which made my day even better!
Emma..always love your uploads..thanks hunny..!😘 xx
I genuinely think that those people choose to foster children just in order to torture them, sadists need defenceless victims at their disposal, unfortunately. And I'm sure they weren't good parents to their biological children either, how could they?
Poor little boy, it's beyond horrific. I can't even imagine how traumatized his brother must be... 💔
Probably the money also
I reckon their own children are damn lucky that their parents are going to prison.Probably saved them from abuse or death
@@jennifermaddy2442 I agree
Emma devils are a great description for these monsters
Brilliant and heartfelt content as always! I love your cat! ❤
Thank you Emma!
I'm glad you put the long sleeve top on. You have bang on perception about criminals E Kenny!
I've seen a lot of cases involving a child death that upset me, but little Charlie's case had me in floods of tears, fly high little one no one will ever hurt you again, you will never be forgotten ❤
Great show looking forward to seeing this x😢
This is a horribly sad story. I hope his older brother finds the love and healing he needs. I wish both of these monsters are given the treatment child killers get in prison.
Rest well little man! Your safe now ❤ i hope charlies brother has the life he deserves blessings to you 🙏❤️ xxxxxx
I can't say in comments what I'd do to both trust it's bad wow rest in peace sweet angel 😢😢😢😢😢😊😊
Heartbreaking story...love you're scarastic bits
It genuinely just cannot compute in my mind how *anyone* could harm a child! A CHILD! My 5yo is the most wonderful, precious being on this entire planet and I feel blessed to have the privilege of being her Mummy. All children should be treated as the absolute wonder's they are. This monster is definitely getting an express Hellevator! The judge is, as we Scots say, a belter! Go on yersel
Oh so excited to watch this when I get home ❤
Disgusting what those monsters did, to those children, rip little man.
