This story of this poor family is the exact reason that the laws against child predators and sex offenders should be stricter and they should never be released to do the same thing again or worse. My heart goes out to the little girl. I hope she can overcome the trauma.❤️❤️❤️
Here's the thing about making stricter laws. They usually end up hurting innocent people and not the people it needs to. I think what you need first and foremost is to realize the United States isn't as safe as you think it is and to be alert. These crimes ain't new only thing new is how fast the crimes get reported.
@@Losmigoskenne1 That is the STUPIDEST thing I've read in a while. So stupid it took a me a minute to process what you were saying. This man was released because of soft and evil democrat policies especially regarding anything to do with pedophilia.
@@Losmigoskenne1 lmao, give me a break...the amount of black people that get let off my the Dems justice/bail reforms that re-offend is through the roof. Take Waukesha for example.
@@chrismunn915 You can though, child sex offenders are 90% likely to reoffend and also likely to escalate. However we can't blame the people who followed the law, the law itself is the problem.
Oh my god, poor Slade. He was half dead and still gave it everything he could to help his family. Just imagining a dying 13 year old boy using all of his strength to find his mother and die at her feet....so so so tragic and unfair. At least people can know his story and that he was a fighter, but I can't imagine the pain he went through 💔
I watch so much true crime, I’ve grown so used to graphic depictions of violence. But hearing what happened to Dylan has me crying my eyes out right now. He was just a baby that should have been protected. I feel so awful that he had to endure such terrible torture before the untimely end of his short life. I hope he can rest now.
The most disturbing part was slade managing to make it back to his mother half alive only to see her dead and to pass himself. What a tragic awful way to go. Absolute monster.
@@jakebiass3164 That's not what the video says. Video says after Slade had been attacked twice outside the perp saw Slade again standing as he was leaving. Perp let him go because of coming daylight and his injuries were already fatal. Police think Slade went back into the house and was the one that got blood everywhere and on top of his dad, dying at his moms feet
Why was he ever allowed parole?! This is why I have no respect for our justice system. Child predators should NEVER be allowed back out into the public, EVER.
So much respect for Slade the 13 year old , i think in his last moments he was fighting to see his siblings and then eventually make it to his parents , to be fatally attacked 3 times and still at the end of it seen to be walking around the garden , so much respect for that dude , RIP , you definitely tried your best
@@TheAnnoyingBoss sounds like you didnt get far enough. he got hit twice, then woke back up and went to his siblings, got chased and knocked out again, then woke up alone. wandered around looking for eveyone until he found his parents dead. and then died next to them, with his parents yet still alone. thats pretty fuking sad if you ask me, each kid just had insane trama in this, the sister for being shown her brothers last moments of being tortured while she probably had unspeakable things done to her as well. all of this is fucking insane and by far the worst part is that it all happened because the kids played outside, and the back door was unlocked.
This is such a horrible story I’m a 57-year-old man and it’s taking me a lot to hold back tears as I listen to this. And from what I understand the young girl that survived has lived a very difficult life ever since. When I was married to my ex-wife I’d be gone sometimes from the house and I always worried about the family so I acquired two Rottweilers that would not let anyone near the house. Because this is one of my worst nightmares that some demon would come in the middle of the night. may these people rest in peace and I hope the young lady that survived we’ll get some help.
What I'm trying to wrap my head around is WHY someone like this was ever released back into society and given a chance to reoffend? This poor little girl and her family 😔 I think it's absolutely amazing how so many people came together to call in about Shasta😭
@@jabarithomas7290 2 different offences - child support is for children's needs - not providing for childrens needs is a form of neglect. I seem to understand that the majority of drug convictions for black men is meth/crack, not weed - and if those prison cells are not filled with young black men then the for profit private prison systems that give campaign funds to politicians cant make as much profit out of human misery. America is the world leader in incarcerating it's own people, 5% of the population, more than China, Iran/Iraq & Russia combined - America has far more problems than just jailing young black men..the legal system is broken and there is inherently no justice system whatsoever. That said..the offender was jailed at the age of 18 for abuse of a 14 year old and served 14 years..which isnt bad. Seems there was no indication he was more than a sex offender or even if he was a sex offender..he didnt tick any of the boxes in his MO.
All three of the children experienced something horrific in three different ways. Yet, for some reason, Slade’s experience hurts me the most. He was a fighter. He refused to die in order to attempt to save his family. This breaks my heart. Poor babies. The predator deserves no mercy.
The girl ended up being a criminal herself. I think the offenders are actually just people who were victims themselves and have unresolved trauma which needs to be addressed. They don't just commit a crime because they are evil people. As he says, he wants the underlying issues to be addressed so that crime does not happen in the first place. As you can see, he cried out to God asking why he would let this happen. He is a victim himself. They need treatment to heal to prevent crime in the first place, as the "criminal" usually starts out as a victim such as in the girl's case as well.
@@smears6039 I don't agree with calling her a criminal , I agree with saying criminals usually start out as victims themselves and there's often no real rehibilitation and support dedicated to fix the root of the problem , it becomes and endless cycle.
@@lillyrabiee6611 dumbest comment in the entire comment section - no mercy or sympathy for monsters - i know people that had the worst childhood and are great people not criminals. So no, a bad childhood doesn't make a monster. caling him a victim? you're a sicko.
i've always said this, yet this evil POS was let out time and time again, if 'IT' had been giving the death penalty first time around all these other victims would still be alive, this world we live in is sick!
I don't think it's "our society" that does it... It's the crooked folks in power. (Judges, lawyers, mayor's, governors, politicians, etc...) Bc even prison rules state that child predators are not permitted to live.
Everyone is talking about Slade or Shasta while both are undeniably tragic I can't imagine the utter terror poor little Dylan had to go through! Being tortured by that monster! How alone and terrified the poor little baby must have been. It makes my blood boil! He got abducted, tortured, murdered brutally and his body got burned then tossed around like garbage. Just appalling... My heart truly aches for the little boy.
Imagine your parents and brother being brutally murdered and then you're taken by this insane crazy guy and no one can help you! Just absolutely horrifying 😢
He died at his mom's feet. He was probably trying to defend his mother. Poor kid. I have two sons and they are always quick to the rescue if I am hurt. May this family rest in peace.
I know, the idea of him trying so hard to stay alive and help his family just to re-enter the home and see his dead parents and siblings gone is absolutely heart wrenching. Slade did his very best to keep fighting
Thank god the people at Dennys spoke up so quickly because I'm sure that would've been the last time Shasta would have been seen alive if they didn't say anything, but still so horrifying to think of all the things she had to witness, that mental torture will last far longer than anything and I hope she's doing better these days
There was a huge reward...over 50k for the safe return of the kids. The waitress who called was 8 months pregnant. When it was discovered it was Shasta, the waitress was never given the reward due to BOTH the children not being returned safe. Pissed us all off and the motorcycle community in our area raised 10k for her on our own. Steve was a huge part of our biker community.
Poor Slade. To even fathom that his brain was still functioning on a level that said to "get to mom/siblings" after such blunt force trauma is astonishing. RIP to all of them.
My heart goes out to this child, no matter how much time passes this will always be with her. I couldn't imagine how anyone could survive mentally after such an ordeal.
I was just thinking the same thing. It does not seem possible to remain sane after that. That would just destroy someone completely. Its one of the worst ive heard.
@@belle8932 omg really??! That's so sad 😢. I've always wondered what came of this poor girl💔 how could anyone not be permanently damaged and struggle to live a normal life after this?
As a mother of 3, one being a 13 yr old teenage boy. The part detailing how Slade was so ruthlessly hit with a hammer, yet managed to get back up & try to run to get help for his family. Then to be attacked again, and to ONCE AGAIN get back up and make it inside to die at his mother's feet. 😭My heart aches so much hearing how hard he fought, and that he was found at his mother's feet. 💔 🙏🏼RIP to the family, and may Shasta be able to overcome the horrific trauma she's endured from this.
@@flixs1353 I'm not even going to waste my energy on inquiring why something so stupid would be said about an innocent CHILD who was savagely MURDERED by a monster. 👋🏼
I nearly cried when I heard Slade passed next to his mother, teenager or not when you're injured so bad you know you're not gonna make it, or sometimes even if someone hurt you but you're fine, wether it's the shock or pain, you want your parents. I don't know exactly how he felt, but I can fathom it and understand exactly, but I can say Slade was a strong man for definite, it's the young age that makes you surviv like that. despite injuries, in teenage years you often have a very strong drive, which keeps you going, you can be hyperactive so if in critical condition becsuse of many fatal blows and you're gonna succumb, generally you're gonna GO untill you stop, you'll want to be next to your parents,
Exactly. I watched this story on another channel and the cops said how broken he was to see how this boy had walked back to his mom and died next to her. It broke all of them. Poor child got up twice after two severe beatings. 💔
I've listen to sooooo many true crime stories through the years and this one remains in the top 3 as the most gruesome. This poor family. I'm so sorry for Shasta's losses. I can not even begin to imagine. All my love and prayers to her♡
this is genuinely one of the most unsettling stories ever. I saw this a couple months ago and when I’m just laying there in the dark I remember this story and it instantly gives me the chills. I remember their faces and I get scared for no reason
Dude same!! I watched it 2 days ago and it rocked me to my core. The details have me seriously disturbed. I’m putting crime documentary’s down for a while. Stay safe man. Peace.
I have watched a lot of true crime documentaries. This one however was really difficult to cope with. What a tragic nightmare. Very graphic, scary and traumatic. May Shasta and her dad heal.
I dont even dare watch this. I just read about this cause I was browsing some Wikipedia article on former prisoners in Federal Supermax and even among all the terrorists and crime bosses this guy stands out.
@@ems8373 Unfortunately if you end yourself your attacker has won. Don't ever let them win. Let that fucker rot behind bars while you do your best to live the best life you can
Yeah, it's easily in the top 5 most disturbing cases I've ever heard. I saw one thing, not sure if it's mentioned here, but that after he murdered her brother he tied a rope around the body and forced the girl to drag his body into a fire pit. How on Earth could someone even think of such a thing. I just can't imagine what that girl went through. 🤢
When the story about Dylan’s assault came out, I cried so much. I can’t believe someone would do this to a child or to anyone. My heart goes out for Shasta.
I lived in SLC, UT when this happened and I remember it being all over the news. Everyone was looking for her, they had their pictures all over TV 💔 So, sad 😢 they should have kept him in jail to begin with 😢 At least she has her Dad ❤️ They've suffered a huge loss💔
The fact that he had a friend posting his bail makes this story even worse. He's been in jail multiple times for disgusting acts against minors and you still help him get out of jail? Some of this blood is on that friend's hands too.
The person who bailed Duncan out of jail is an extremely wealthy Fargo man who owned a large real estate agency. I don't know if he offered any form of compensation to Shasta, but I think he owes her something for letting that animal loose.
I remember when this happened, I had just graduated high school. This poor girl has been through more than most people will in their entire life. I recently saw an online video where she speaks about what happened and how difficult it was to live after all she had been through. She is now a mother of 5 boys and said she’s doing the best that she can . I pray for her healing. ❤❤❤ It is absolutely terrifying that evil like this walks among us.
5 thank god. Its cool to think im 25 so kids born today if people have lots by the time im 75 theyll be 50 and ill have gotten to watch all those new people make an impact on the world and not just get tortured for hours and murdered terribly
My heart goes out to all the victims (known and unknown) of this sick individual. He should have never gotten a second chance. There is no telling how many victims are out there. Thank you EWU for all your hard work and integrity. You put so much work, and effort into every single video. You guys really need to be picked up by ID Go, Netflix, Prime, etc. I am 52 yrs old . I have had a passion for True Crime since I was very young (teens). The amount of work put into your videos is astonishing on both your channels. Absolutely superb work! It is much very much appreciated!
Dylan was not killed accidentally. Later reports said he shot him in the stomach area intentionally, then as the child screamed, aimed and pulled the trigger again only for it not to fire. The child then begged for his life while he reloaded. This man was a monster.
@@freshfishonly... Slade, Shasta and Dylan are my brother, Steve's, children (My Niece and Nephews). Steve has since passed in 2019. Somehow this video just popped up in my feed... I don't know what made me watch it after all this time, but I miss them so much... I was shocked to see the kids faces on my yt feed, I guess. Sadly what @rose080891, mentioned above, is believed to be true, as I know it.... That monster destroyed many lives... Living and dead (RIP ❤). I just hope the re-telling of what happened, makes others more aware of their surroundings and give tighter hugs to their loved ones.
I come back to this case like once a year. I like to your positive attitude surrounding life despite what happened to your family. maybe you can answer me two questions : Do you stay in contact with Shasta somehow and how is her mental health? Secondly, since I go a bit deeper in my analysis according to psychopath and the unspeakable things they are doing like in this case, at some point I'm hitting the wall and the last possible answer for this kind of crimes are the evil, no childhood no nothing can explain a certain level of evilness. what do you think about this kind of behavior? I mean this mf is literally talking to the devil.
That man was an example of the worst kind of evil. I couldn’t even look at him when his picture came on the screen. Why they let men like him free to reoffend never ceases to amaze me. 😡 Prayers for Shasta. I can’t imagine the trauma. 😢
I didn’t think this story could get more heartbreaking, but imagining that poor, injured boy trying to make it back to his mother only to die at her feet just broke me. I can’t stop crying. Why do monsters like this exist? 😞
@@freebirddee2620 this country justice system need a real reform and we need to use the system fair. Start changing ppl for the crime not for the color of their skin. Stop allowing rich to partnership in the system. Rich ppl shouldn't be the in charge of making decisions for poor ppl.
@@natashagraham9846 I COMPLETELY agree! Have you watched The Khalief Browder Story on Netflix? Kept on Rikers for 3yrs on suspicion of stealing a back pack! All because his mum couldn’t afford the bail money. It’s horrific but well worth the watch x
That poor young boy thought so hard to survive and then found the strength to get in the house to see if his family was ok, only to lose his life at the feet of his mother is so heartbreaking. This is such a sad story.
Sex offenders should NOT be allowed outside of prison, PERIOD. They deserve to rot there; they ARE ALMOST ALWAYS repeat offenders, and letting them back out causes crap like this.
@@JustinCrediblename You know exactly what OP meant. This straw man you've set up is so damn shoddy that the zonked out hippies at burning man wouldn't even touch it. Find a better use for your time rather than starting arguments that don't need to be had.
@@oriomotodo2975 Bro chill he's just trying to describe the difference between people who got accused of being sex offenders and straight up pedophiles
I normally don't agree with extensive prison sentences but in this case and other cases that involve repetitive SA of several child victims and multiple premeditated gruesome homicides, I would have no problem sending him to death row immediately. Absolutely repulsive a truely worthless person that did nothing but spread misery during his time on earth.
This is brutal....and %10000 preventable. Why do they parole people like this guy? The parole board carries this crime on their backs and should be penalized for it.
it really doesn’t take a genius to work out this guy was so dangerous. the law needs to be much more specific when it comes to sexual crimes because there are those who don’t reoffend and then there are monsters like this who can’t wait to get back out there and do evil!
This happened in my home state! She’s gone through so much! She’s gone through drug addiction and recovery and was married and has children. Such a blessing she is.
@@sakabula2357 if you google her name PEOPLE magazine did a article recently in June about her and a two hour show on discovery+ She has 5 sons now and she is married and doing well.
I saw an interview recently with an adult Shasta. She said that she spent the majority of her adolescence in juvenile detention. She didn’t go into detail but did mention that she self medicated to hide the pain of her trauma. She said that she knew every time someone looked at her they could see what was done to her, that she was “dirty.” It was heartbreaking. She spoke about the immense guilt she feels about not being able to keep Dylan safe and protect him. She made him a promise she was unable to keep, and she said for that reason she never makes promises anymore.
She had to undergo surgery after she was rescued for the damage Duncan did to her little body during the numerous rapes she endured. She does have children today. She said she has pictures of her brothers out, and her kids know they died, but she has not told them in what circumstances.
Can't even imagine what Slade went through. A young boy just hit by disastrous murder attacks gathered all his dying energy to check out on his family only to find his beloved parents not alive in his last moments 💔💔💔💔
Actually that is why Adonai YHWH sent his son, Yeshua HaMessiah into the world so that those that believe by repentance can be saved. The only thing that one cannot be forgiven for is Blasphemy. That's why those that believe need to stay in prayer continually for the people of Adonai Yeshua HaMessiah to be delivered from all forms of Darkness. Stop taking that sacrifice made by our Lord and savior for granted because their is power in the blood if Adonai Yeshua HaMessiah, because demons and devils are real and they do not appear like those in the movies. Pray always for the will of Adonai YHWH to be done. The unrepentant will be condemned. Be careful not to be condemned along with them because you cannot forgive them. Shalom, L'hllel, Amen.
Unfortunately then they kill all children guaranteed. most people actually agree though, and the push for these sickening 4 year charges etc is an abomination that nobody wants but the crazy radical socialist. They want crimes to be seen as mental heath issues and to treat society as children and believe in utopia.. social workers no cops, no boarders one global system etc. We must do our part by actually petitioning our lawmakers in our states where these things are decided. We must vote for policy and who we can trust to trust in that will actually push it to the ballot.
@@gregoryadair4932 knock it off. Sexual predators cannot be rehabilitated. History has proven it time and time and time again. No amount of prayer can fix a mental deformity.
Ppl wonder why I'm so vigilant with my children. My daughter never leaves my sight when outside. We had a stalker roaming around our house a few years back and this created a very vigilant side to me. I literally took up night shift so I could be awake while my family sleep, been this way 6 yrs now. No one will be able to enter my house as I have all exits covered. If someone does end up in my house it's game over. They won't make it 2 feet.
@@Inky_doodledoo I never caught them in the act but when covid hit I started getting to know !y neighbors and the guy across the street from us became direct numero uno. We were talking one day and I told him about what had happened and why I shifted my hours of operation and I told him that I had a good idea who it was and he started acting really weird. I initially didn't suspect him but after this conversation I did. He revealed he was on meth so it kinda make sense. However I think this scared him so much that he has gotten off the dope.
@@jvon3885 OMG , it's always the Person we Know. My Sister was all alone , While my father used to drinnk alot and stay out of the house most of the time. I was with my Mom who was admitted in the hospital in another city . First time in my life I felt so scared for my sister . She used to lock the entire house from inside for 20×7 hrs . Now my Father is Sober. Bless Your Family .
When do you sleep then? And who protects the house then? I would think a dog or two would be sufficient and you'd be able to sleep at night so you can enjoy your kids during the day.
Absolutely gut wrenching event, but my god, Slade is an absolute hero. That boy lived through the whole thing to try and save his family. What a beautiful soul. Rest in peace you beautiful King.
I watched this story on different programs before. I can't even imagine what kind of hell they all went through especially the little boy Dylan. That one breaks my heart the most.
This one is hard to watch. Rest in Peace Slade. What a handsome young man. And RIP to the mother & BF. I can't even imagine how horrible their last moments together must've been. Absolutely sickening to the core. And RIP to Dylan. 😢
@@kittykixbootie They were compassionate though, they gave her a lenient parole sentence with supervision. She needs that because it was endangering her kids. Supervision seems necessary.
@@firemonkey1015 they should have given her the supervision and support before she had the problems. But that doest make them any money. Sorry, but I lived in Idaho for nearly 20 years. They use the justice system as a cash cow.
This happened near me. It was absolutely horrific. She has had a rough life since her rescue. Who can blame her she has lived a nightmare. I love this channel but can't bear to watch this one. That man is one of the most evil people to walk the earth.
I can’t believe I’ve never heard of this. Almost wish I still didn’t. Heartless. Pure evil. That family just sleeping where they are supposed to be most safe. My heart BREAKS for all of them. And the oldest boy, his pain. I can’t believe people like this exist. Poor Dylan. I have a son named Dylan, then Shasta…to have to spend the time she did with the creature that murdered her family. I pray and I pray hard that this little girl has come to some sort of closure. Happiness. My goodness. Why?
Oohhh…. Tiffani. Just the tippy tippy top of the iceberg. At least there were no babies stuffed in a microwave. So in reality it’s really not all that bad. And somebody survived. Yeah.
Never leave any door unlocked at night when you go to sleep at night. If the family had locked that back door, they probably would have still been alive today. So sad 😢
I worked with Anthony Martinez's father, and lived in Beaumont California when that abduction occurred. It traumatized the whole state. May that killer rot in hell.
This case was HORRIBLE. Instead of getting rid of the bodies, he left them around the house to rot. Joseph was BEYOND evil. That poor little girl. She must have been absolutely terrified. I am by no means religious, but I hope God helps that little girl heal and continues to punish Joseph on earth and in hell. Edit: I also hope Slade feels a sense of justice wherever he is. He was truly a fighter.
Omg REALLLY? I don't see you saying the exact same thing to the initial video/content creator. If that's the way you feel...then why did you even watch the video?
This story is creepy but we have cellphones and security systems now. not to say things don't still happen but random crimes are getting harder and harder to perpetrate,
For some reason the stories on this channel always feel almost like a fever dream when you narrate their actions and take us through the details step by step. It’s so haunting, the way their minds work. “I was putting them out of their misery.” Or “I was ending their suffering.” It’s terrifying to believe there are actual people out there that think like this. This channel is amazing btw, and I always feel so driven to take the route of being a detective or criminal investigator because there are people out there who truly need help and need to be found. The trauma and suffering is unbelievable. May they all find peace.
I've heard this case several times but I can 100% guarantee ain't nobody going to tell it like EWU! I'm looking forward to seeing this presentation format. Prayers for Shasta! This poor young woman went through total hell and back as a child yet managed to build the strength to grow up thriving! My ❤️ goes out to her on so many levels!
I sit here after finishing this story and my mind is racing with words like cruel and evil and inhuman. My heart goes out to the survivor and her family. Please, everyone, keep your heads on a swivel. Lock your doors and windows. Get sensors or cameras. Take care of eachother bc there are so many people in this world that want to do harm. It comes so easy to these criminals and I just can't wrap my head around how or why. That's why I love these videos. It's to help me understand the darkness that is real in this world so I take nothing for granted and can pay homage to the victims and their stories.
Exactly. We all never know how close we have come to being a victim in our lives. Evil lurks. I'm a single parent, pray for my child's safety daily. Taught her to shoot, self awareness. I teach Martial Arts to kids at our local rec center and can't get my child interested to learn and train. It's frustrating.
I knew of this case already and I wish they would have included some of the interviews that Shasta has given as an adult. If I remember everything correctly she has said that Joseph r*ped her too and had tried to strangle her to death but didn’t when she called him „Joe“ (which was supposedly how his mum called him). Another detail I would have liked to be mentioned is that Josep asked Shasta to visit him in prison when he was arrested at that Denny‘s and she said yes (but obviously never did). Imagine having the gall to ask a child to visit you in prison after brutally killing her whole family and torturing her. This guy was truly insane! I wish they would have elaborated on the things that he had written about his childhood. If I recall correctly Shasta struggled with addiction and I think that at least one biological child was taken from her (as far as I understood not because of abuse but because of her addiction- which might have led to neglect idk). I‘ve seen comments scrutinizing her for that and I find that disgusting. Some people can’t even find empathy for an addict who endured what she did. The fact that she’s still alive is a miracle to me and shows how strong she is. I hope that she got the help that she needed.
I do as well but it’s about people they stopped seeing each other as important everyone is in the doggie doggie fight not caring seeing others as nothing … for me I am successful why because I loved as a child helped my neighbor and tried to bring my friends to the lord I lived honest and happy I was for sure not perfect. But I tried ,… as a teen I stayed away from things bad most times lol I did my teen stufff but I was responsible helped my parents and we were poor but working together we had the basics .. I tried I failed sometimes but I am not evil so a success I. Old now you know over 55 I try
This is why child sex offenders need to do life in prison or death** they can not be rehabilitated..They always reoffend or end up killing.. Unfortunately the screwed up judicial system will never change and the children will always be in danger cuz of these sick monsters. So heartbreaking 💔💔
"they always reoffend" "cant be rehabilitated". Any other nonsense lies or disinformation you want to spew before i report you for this? The success rate of rehabilitating offenders is actually more than 95% percent. So do some research before you blabber lies driven by your feelings
His words about how the system should offer free counseling and saying how it will never get done because we wouldn’t have anyone to point at gave me goosebumps. Dude is clearly a smart psychopath which is arguably the scariest kind of psychopath.
That was so wild. In that moment, he was 100% right about this country and how we aren't too concerned about fixing the reasons why people fall in the cracks of society, become victims, then become abusers. You are just supposed to "pick yourself up by the bootstraps" and make it through life no matter what hand you are dealt. Unfortunately, in the real world, that isn't something that can be done by everyone. Some people aren't born into money, or a loving family, or with total control of their mental facilities, so a stronger infrastructure of a safety net is vital to stop these things from happening. But like in most situations in this country, we don't try to prevent issues, we just react once something horrible happens. Its sad and it won't change.
@@jthom0027 Problem one is the industrial prison complex, which is big business. It's like people wondering why pharmaceutical companies and doctors haven't found a "cure" for cancer. The money isn't in the cure. The money is in keeping people sick. Same goes with the prison system. They don't care about reform. (However, some are just not able to be truly reformed.) With that said, repeat offenders is really just repeat customers in their eyes.
@@jthom0027 heres the thing, the "system" does offer free counceling. Your doing the same thing he is. Shifting accountability away from him. People dont fall through the cracks because nobody wants to help them. They fall through the cracks because they dont want to be helped.
@@xenn4985 There are plenty of people out there that need and want help that do not get it. To think otherwise is so sociopathic It boggles the mind. Do you honestly believe that every person that is struggling mentally right now in this country simple do it because they don't want help? That's a...odd take.
@@xenn4985 Also, absolutely zero accountability is being shifted away from this psychopath. You stop getting any kind of personal leeway when you commit a violent crime. That does not mean he wasn't right about the system though. Those two things are not mutually exclusive.
I can't even begin to imagine how irreparably damaged Shasta's mental state is. This is so terrible. Thank God she still has her biological father to take care of her and make sure she gets the help and counselling she most definitely needs.
@rydz656 Your a troll with your distrubing comments.The world we live in is so disgusting when theirs evil stories like this and someone so pathetic like you feels the need to make sick remarks for attention.Grow up & learn some empathy
@@rydz656 Not sure what you're referring to. He scammed his child daughter for a house? Or was this more recent? Her dad seems like a pretty stand-up guy who straight up just loves his children. I forget the exact story of this video but it's not uncommon for a father to want to see his children and be in their life but his ex-wife does everything in her power to make sure that won't be possible. It's very interesting to compare how men and women are treated during divorce proceedings, it doesn't take much for a court to decide a man is unfit to be a father but the mom could be an alcoholic and she could still get custody.
I think the torture of poor baby dylan was just the very worst part of this.... how horrific for Shanta to now hold all of this pain and rembering the horrible stuff this monster did to her and her family for the rest of her life... words can't describe how pained I feel for this family.... I just can't handle watching this anymore..
May God bless the EWU crew for delivering cases that should be looked into more in-depth. They’ve done so much for the true crime community, and we simply couldn’t thank them enough for all the content they’ve been giving us. More power to this community and their channel as a whole.
Ah yes..the EWU crew certainly know how to monetize grief, tragedy and sensationalise abhorrent cruelty and torture. They are very good at reteling cases that have been solved which consequently dont need to be looked into in more depth - but what is important t is that they can make little stories about tragedy and benefit from clicks & views and ensure that they profit out of the abuse of children such as Shasta - you can rest assured that while the EWU crew get financial rewards from youtube, none of it will go to Shasta or other victims of crime.
@@Vixxing21 you, you're - ..just a few more letters but spelling does separate the literate from the redneck conspiracy theorist nut jobs. Your comment has literally nothing to do with my comment; your reply has literally nothing to do with the subjects covered in my reply to the original commentator. Should the video up-loaders profit off the misery of this child who lost her family through a horrific ordeal? Youre response is to query vaccines and query some buildings that fell down through no freak of gravitational force but in fact fell down due to gravitational force. Not sure this is the video to explain how gravity works to you but in short - what goes up must come down if it is confinded to earths gravitational field - you can try it at home by dropping a can of your favourite cheap beer from your hand and seeing what happens. Not sure why youre concerned about why, along with 8 billion other members of the planet took vaccines in recent times..but seems we've not yet died, become impotent, been controlled by Bill Gate's 5G network, the NWO or Illuminati as of this stage. As for the 9/11 issue - it's called cause & effect - turns out you cant as a country interfere in the affairs & geo political affairs of other countries for 100 years and longer and no have something biting you in the arse.. 3000 people odd died..somewhat less than the number of US fatalities in Guatemala, Nicaragua, Chile Cambodia, Vietnam, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait etc etc..just because americans died doesnt make the world stop buddy..America has been arming despots and killing other innocent people for decades..and still remains friends with dictators and human rights abusers..eventually some of those non white people are gonna get pissed off. 9/11 might be considered a tragedy but meh..if killing people, even white people was such a bad thing then one might imagine Americans would perhaps stop arming it's hillbilly redneck citizens and standing by while mass shootings occur in your schools, churches and shopping centres - you dont care about mass shootings in schools, why would you care about planes flying into buildings..
Okay, every hair on my arms was standing up when you spoke about him screaming the Devil is here boy😮😮😮 chills to the core man! This story is so tragic and straight up frightening!!!!
Just reading a lot of comments…💔 This happened near where I live and a few years ago Shasta was really not ok. She went missing with her sons (but were all located safe) and has had a really hard time (as anyone could imagine). People didn’t cover the case for years because she didn’t want to talk about it. I’m happy to see her speaking about it now because I hope that means she’s in a better place and with more publicity, I hope she’s given more resources, support, and love. ❤ I’ve watched specials on survivors that Elizabeth Smart works with and it’s made me sad to not see Shasta being with others that understand that kind of trauma and can share their support. I hope her speaking out helps get her all the things she needs
I was thinking of that too! I remember how when Jayme Closs escaped, Elizabeth Smart, another woman whose family was murdered by her abductor, and I think two other survivors of similar horrors met with Jayme to help give her hope and support.
@@michellebuskie4102 Anyone who sees this as entertainment is sick. It's education. If we don't get these stories out there then the relaxed laws that let monsters do this will never be changed. Not saying she has to talk to anyone if she doesn't want to, just that her life and trauma isn't "other people's entertainment".
Yea ! Found one I had missed , herd this story before,but you guys always add more detail, more about the story! That’s why your my favorited channel, been a long time subscriber to EUW SINCE THE FAMILY TOOK us on lots of adventures! 😊
This case rocked our community in ways it still hasn’t recovered. Shasta outsmarted Joseph Duncan and was more brave than anyone I know. They demolished the house but those awful memories will be with Shasta forever. Bless her heart
Im at a loss on this case, not enough words could explain how horrific this story is. It’s worse than any nightmare imaginable. My heart goes out to Shasta who will have to live with this for the rest of her life. Her life will be forever scarred. Knowing what happened to Dillon, just hope Joseph gets what he has coming for him in this life or the next.
I agree with you on all of this. I won’t even speak his name because such a creature as him is disgusting to even mention. He will rot in hell for what he has done to this poor innocent family, they didn’t ask for this nor did they deserve it. I may live on the opposite side of the country (east coast) but this is really heart breaking for me, I almost cried. But once more, this monster will suffer the same way this family did and he will rot in hell for eternity, the true and just punishment if you ask me. Disgusting beings like him do not even deserve parole nor do they deserve to walk and roam the earth once more after serving time. I’m so glad that me and you and all the other comments have the exact same opinions. May Shasta find peace and comfort with her father and move past this trauma
I can’t imagine how hard it will be for that little girl to ever feel safe again. Seeing her knowing that guy killed her family, watching video of her brother tortured, then see him get shot and killed, absolutely horrible. This was a rather hard one to listen to.
Thank you so much for covering this case. This happened in my state, and Shasta has not caught a break in life since. This case always brings me to tears, and i was just searching a month ago for a chanel like yours to have broken this down. One of the worst parts is the police tried to dub this as a meth deal gone wrong. Sickening. May they rest in peace, and I pray Shasta continues to recover.
Slade was so strong. He wanted to live. He wanted to help his siblings. He wanted to help his family. He died so brutually. That poor baby fought so so hard it breaks my heart.
When I first heard this story, I watched it on an ID discovery program, I was sick to my stomach. I’ve never been as disturbed by a case before. This one really got to me.
This story had me in tears 😢 it was very difficult to hear. My hearts goes out to the daughter. I’m glad he was caught and she is safe. Slade fought for his family till his last breath😥.
People talking about the children Slade, Shasta, and Dylan but let’s not forget Anthony, Carmen and sammiejo -other childrens lives he also took. As well as the parents he brutally beat. Let’s take a moment for them all. RIP ANGELS 🙏🏻
How disturbed can one’s mind be ?! It scares me to see how people can hurt innocent children and other people in such a horrible way ! Can’t put my mind around so much horror …
I remember hearing about this case on the news when I was a kid. I never knew how horrendous the details were, my parents always changed the channel before I could hear anything. My heart aches for Shasta. I can't begin to fathom what it's like going through something so abhorrent and traumatizing. Thank god she has her father to support her and get her mental\physical help she needs. She'll never read it but, good luck in your recovery Shasta, healing is possible ❤️
Same. I remember hearing about Shasta a lot….but had absolutely no idea how brutal it was & what poor Dylan went through. This is just terrifying & we already know there are more just like this monster
The amount of detail he went into easily makes this one of the worst cases I’ve heard in my life . How easily he just targeted a random family is beyond terrifying
Damn--- I've been watching a ton of your documentaries lately, EWU, but this one is definitely the most gruesome I've watched. I may need to take a break for awhile lol Fantastic research job as always though!
The part where the abuser says “ he knew a lot about abuse… “ I have no doubt he did. Whatever suffering he may or may not have experienced in childhood that fuelled his later behaviour doesn’t wash with me. I have sympathy for the child in him and his earlier experiences but not for the adult for the following reasons. When we are grown, regardless of our history we become adults and have to take responsibility for the decisions we make. There are billions of people on this planet, many of home have experienced harder childhood experiences than this perpetrator, and yet they didn’t behave like him, also there are many other people who experienced less childhood harm than him and as adults did far worse! Swings and roundabouts! There’s a point where regardless of our history we have to take the consequences of our behaviour. So he should never ever be set free in society again. The public have an absolute right to remain protected and I doubt very much he can be rehabilitated and even if he can be, his crimes are so heinous he should never be forgiven.
@@wingingninja LMAO believe in what you want, it wont change alot. Also, you were spewing alot of bullshit. You clearly have no idea that somebody, who had a traumatic childhood and nobody to support him (the abuser had to, otherwise unlikely he wouldve turned out that way), does not just simply "SNAP OUT" of it and "takes responsibility". You have no fucking single clue about what you're talking about. It might be the case if you're foolish, or mildly disturbed etc, but if you really got fucked up as a child and left to your own, you do not just magically turn around.
Even though I've heard about this case before, watching this video was like hearing about it again for the first time! The ways in which EWU presents these cases is so unique...& always on point! Thank you guys for all your work & effort. RIP to all the innocent victims of this evil monster & I sincerely hope Shasta is able to find some peace & comfort in her life.
My mom always told me, if they tie you up, you're as good as dead. Better to get shot running than tortured. Idk why we live in a society where a mother has to tell their child something so awful.
Why does this story seem constructed, bullet holes, no resistance, door open, People with trauma like slade’s don’t get up once, let alone twice, Brenda is not a woman
Mind you, this guy was doing this stuff nearly 30 years ago just the same. And every psycho killer before at some point in history was doing it then. Don't pull the whole "Oh, look at society" card out. It's called the dark side of humanity, and it's been around as long as we have.
Slade is a true older brother, first child material, he fought till his last breath but it was too late for him, dying on his mother feet shows how he cares 😢
I moved to Coeur d'Alene a few years after this happened but I had seen the news about it before the move and it really shook me and has stayed with me ever since. We personally weren't friends but my children and Shasta were and went to school together. I really feel for her and the incredibly horrifying experience she went through and had a really hard time growing up. Undoubtedly and not surprising after what she went through. I know she moved away a few years ago bc of constantly being asked about her ordeal and the constant reminder. She said she didn't want to be known as the girl who's family was murdered and wanted to go somewhere new to make a fresh start but she is still in Idaho. She has 2 kids now last I heard and doing as best as she can. To this day, I tell my children repeatedly to ALWAYS make sure the doors are locked. You never know what monster will base their evil decision on whether or not the door was left unlocked.
Hearing about the teenager standing back up when they left hit hard, especially knowing he went back inside and leaving the blood on his father, checking on his condition I'm sure and ended up next to his mother... Smfh That imagery is never going to leave my mind. R. I. P. young man, as well your family.
I was seven when the Groene case went on, and I grew up a few hours drive south of where it happened in Twin Falls. I remember hearing it on the news and how they were looking for the kids and how they were almost certain they were both dead. When Shasta was found it was absolutely--I guess mindboggling is the correct word. The fact that Dylan didn't make it was horrible. I don't know what ended up happening to Shasta or how she's doing today, but I wish her all the best and have all the love in the world for her.
Sorry to give you the bad news, but she’s had a terribly hard life even after her rescue. In and out of jail, issues with her dad being greedy…she’s not had an ounce of guidance
I feel like my soul is leaving me when I hear these gruesome details of Shasta's and her brother's story. I can't recall the last time I heard such a horrific story.
I knew Shasta growing up. She was a few grades lower than me... She went to my high school, and she had a friend group that was kind of polar to mine. I wish I would have reached out to her more than I did to become a friend that truly cares for her for life... But I was a shy emo kid, and was caught up back then... I hope she is doing well now, and is getting the love and care that she needs and deserves, from people who know how to love and care... which is rare.
This story of this poor family is the exact reason that the laws against child predators and sex offenders should be stricter and they should never be released to do the same thing again or worse. My heart goes out to the little girl. I hope she can overcome the trauma.❤️❤️❤️
I don’t know if you overcome trauma or if you just learn to live with it.
Here's the thing about making stricter laws. They usually end up hurting innocent people and not the people it needs to. I think what you need first and foremost is to realize the United States isn't as safe as you think it is and to be alert. These crimes ain't new only thing new is how fast the crimes get reported.
Agreed
Right? Statistics show pretty clearly that they aren’t able to be rehabilitated!

I watch so much true crime, I’ve grown so used to graphic depictions of violence. But hearing what happened to Dylan has me crying my eyes out right now. He was just a baby that should have been protected. I feel so awful that he had to endure such terrible torture before the untimely end of his short life. I hope he can rest now.
I know, I was so sad to hear about Dylan. The whole story makes me sick
Maybe watch less "true crime" if you're so traumatized by what you learn about other people while doing so...
Same that very young child being taken so far from civilization and tortured by a coward is so infuriating and sad
@@2000jago omg stfu dude. We get it. You're edgy.
Him and his poor 13 year old brother, Slade.
I can’t even imagine the last few minutes of his life, especially after finding his Mother dead too. 🥺😢
The most disturbing part was slade managing to make it back to his mother half alive only to see her dead and to pass himself. What a tragic awful way to go. Absolute monster.
I think the torture that young boy experienced was worse,poor kid. Lord have mercy.
Slade was actually murdered outside and dragged back inside then placed at his mother's feet. Either way it's horrible.
An equally disturbing action was the attorneys telling him not to disclose the murder weapon...
There was more than one disturbing part ...shaista seeing and hearing her brother taken away to be raped and shot ....nightmare of horrors
@@jakebiass3164 That's not what the video says. Video says after Slade had been attacked twice outside the perp saw Slade again standing as he was leaving. Perp let him go because of coming daylight and his injuries were already fatal. Police think Slade went back into the house and was the one that got blood everywhere and on top of his dad, dying at his moms feet
Why was he ever allowed parole?! This is why I have no respect for our justice system. Child predators should NEVER be allowed back out into the public, EVER.

@Truth Crime oh my god who the fuck cares about politics in a discussion about a serial killing pedophile? just be a normal person for christs sake

@Truth Crime y'all are so wrong it's hilarious
So much respect for Slade the 13 year old , i think in his last moments he was fighting to see his siblings and then eventually make it to his parents , to be fatally attacked 3 times and still at the end of it seen to be walking around the garden , so much respect for that dude , RIP , you definitely tried your best
Man that poor little boy got it worse than him too. Slade got hit twice and he was out. Sad. The poor little boy also though got tortured for hours ☹️
Yeah - with some luck he may have called for help, but with such injuries it's impressive he even managed to get up, twice.
O0😮😊😊😊ß9[@⁷@@@@glitchy_weasel
@@TheAnnoyingBoss sounds like you didnt get far enough. he got hit twice, then woke back up and went to his siblings, got chased and knocked out again, then woke up alone. wandered around looking for eveyone until he found his parents dead. and then died next to them, with his parents yet still alone. thats pretty fuking sad if you ask me, each kid just had insane trama in this, the sister for being shown her brothers last moments of being tortured while she probably had unspeakable things done to her as well. all of this is fucking insane and by far the worst part is that it all happened because the kids played outside, and the back door was unlocked.
Unlike his parents, who didn’t try at all. They knew this was exactly what would happen to their kids.
This is such a horrible story I’m a 57-year-old man and it’s taking me a lot to hold back tears as I listen to this. And from what I understand the young girl that survived has lived a very difficult life ever since. When I was married to my ex-wife I’d be gone sometimes from the house and I always worried about the family so I acquired two Rottweilers that would not let anyone near the house. Because this is one of my worst nightmares that some demon would come in the middle of the night. may these people rest in peace and I hope the young lady that survived we’ll get some help.
Agreed brother. Gets me really choked up
What I'm trying to wrap my head around is WHY someone like this was ever released back into society and given a chance to reoffend? This poor little girl and her family 😔 I think it's absolutely amazing how so many people came together to call in about Shasta😭
They have to save those prison cells for black men who are caught with WEED and are delinquent on their child support payments.
@@jabarithomas7290 boohoo victim card
@@jabarithomas7290 2 different offences - child support is for children's needs - not providing for childrens needs is a form of neglect.
I seem to understand that the majority of drug convictions for black men is meth/crack, not weed - and if those prison cells are not filled with young black men then the for profit private prison systems that give campaign funds to politicians cant make as much profit out of human misery.
America is the world leader in incarcerating it's own people, 5% of the population, more than China, Iran/Iraq & Russia combined -
America has far more problems than just jailing young black men..the legal system is broken and there is inherently no justice system whatsoever.
That said..the offender was jailed at the age of 18 for abuse of a 14 year old and served 14 years..which isnt bad. Seems there was no indication he was more than a sex offender or even if he was a sex offender..he didnt tick any of the boxes in his MO.
@@jabarithomas7290 Thank a Democrat for that! Just look at what is going on in Chicago and NYC. They are letting these clowns out with no bail!
One word ""democrat"
All three of the children experienced something horrific in three different ways. Yet, for some reason, Slade’s experience hurts me the most. He was a fighter. He refused to die in order to attempt to save his family. This breaks my heart. Poor babies. The predator deserves no mercy.
The girl ended up being a criminal herself. I think the offenders are actually just people who were victims themselves and have unresolved trauma which needs to be addressed. They don't just commit a crime because they are evil people. As he says, he wants the underlying issues to be addressed so that crime does not happen in the first place. As you can see, he cried out to God asking why he would let this happen. He is a victim himself.
They need treatment to heal to prevent crime in the first place, as the "criminal" usually starts out as a victim such as in the girl's case as well.

Everyone is talking about Slade or Shasta while both are undeniably tragic I can't imagine the utter terror poor little Dylan had to go through! Being tortured by that monster! How alone and terrified the poor little baby must have been. It makes my blood boil! He got abducted, tortured, murdered brutally and his body got burned then tossed around like garbage. Just appalling... My heart truly aches for the little boy.
Absolutely horrifying, there are no words. However, his pain has ended- he no longer suffers. Poor Shasta has to live with those memories forever
Imagine your parents and brother being brutally murdered and then you're taken by this insane crazy guy and no one can help you! Just absolutely horrifying 😢
I feel the exact same way.
When he described poor Slade living through it all to make it back inside and die next to his mom I just wanted to scream. So utterly horrifying.
Me too - that poor young teen 😢
My 13 yr olds name is Slayde....this shook me more than normal bc of that. My gosh....
That must of been worse than any human can comprehend. The kid was most likely thinking "How could something so evil be allowed to happen in life?"
He died at his mom's feet. He was probably trying to defend his mother. Poor kid. I have two sons and they are always quick to the rescue if I am hurt. May this family rest in peace.
Poor boy, he was strong and a fighter.
That poor boy slade fought so hard to make sure his family was okay just to find them and succumb to his injuries right with his momma. Sad sad story.
I know, the idea of him trying so hard to stay alive and help his family just to re-enter the home and see his dead parents and siblings gone is absolutely heart wrenching. Slade did his very best to keep fighting

I nearly cried when I heard Slade passed next to his mother, teenager or not when you're injured so bad you know you're not gonna make it, or sometimes even if someone hurt you but you're fine, wether it's the shock or pain, you want your parents.
I don't know exactly how he felt, but I can fathom it and understand exactly, but I can say Slade was a strong man for definite, it's the young age that makes you surviv like that.
despite injuries, in teenage years you often have a very strong drive, which keeps you going, you can be hyperactive
so if in critical condition becsuse of many fatal blows and you're gonna succumb, generally you're gonna GO untill you stop,

& The fact that his friend was a Doctor I think was even worse.
The court shouldn't have let him back out
Montana doesn't care about crime unless its a small amount of weed. this dude had immunity until he went out in public accidently.
The friend I'll bet it was homosexual
He probably participated in abuses. There's more to this story we will never know.
The person who bailed Duncan out of jail is an extremely wealthy Fargo man who owned a large real estate agency. I don't know if he offered any form of compensation to Shasta, but I think he owes her something for letting that animal loose.
His gay lover perhaps. Wtf could be his motivation.
Died of a brain tumor...
Likely not unrelated...
Likely the cause...
@@thecappeningchannel515 My guess would be a fellow predator, and that Duncan had dirt on him.
@@thecappeningchannel515 he bailed him out because he didn't want certain things about him to come out, I'm sure.
I agree 💯 if he was any good at all he would have said no to a known criminal.
I remember when this happened, I had just graduated high school. This poor girl has been through more than most people will in their entire life. I recently saw an online video where she speaks about what happened and how difficult it was to live after all she had been through. She is now a mother of 5 boys and said she’s doing the best that she can . I pray for her healing. ❤❤❤ It is absolutely terrifying that evil like this walks among us.
5 thank god. Its cool to think im 25 so kids born today if people have lots by the time im 75 theyll be 50 and ill have gotten to watch all those new people make an impact on the world and not just get tortured for hours and murdered terribly
My heart goes out to all the victims (known and unknown) of this sick individual. He should have never gotten a second chance. There is no telling how many victims are out there. Thank you EWU for all your hard work and integrity. You put so much work, and effort into every single video. You guys really need to be picked up by ID Go, Netflix, Prime, etc. I am 52 yrs old . I have had a passion for True Crime since I was very young (teens). The amount of work put into your videos is astonishing on both your channels. Absolutely superb work! It is much very much appreciated!
Dylan was not killed accidentally. Later reports said he shot him in the stomach area intentionally, then as the child screamed, aimed and pulled the trigger again only for it not to fire. The child then begged for his life while he reloaded. This man was a monster.
I wouldn't be so sure
@@freshfishonly... Slade, Shasta and Dylan are my brother, Steve's, children (My Niece and Nephews). Steve has since passed in 2019. Somehow this video just popped up in my feed... I don't know what made me watch it after all this time, but I miss them so much... I was shocked to see the kids faces on my yt feed, I guess. Sadly what @rose080891, mentioned above, is believed to be true, as I know it....
That monster destroyed many lives... Living and dead (RIP ❤).
I just hope the re-telling of what happened, makes others more aware of their surroundings and give tighter hugs to their loved ones.
I come back to this case like once a year. I like to your positive attitude surrounding life despite what happened to your family. maybe you can answer me two questions : Do you stay in contact with Shasta somehow and how is her mental health? Secondly, since I go a bit deeper in my analysis according to psychopath and the unspeakable things they are doing like in this case, at some point I'm hitting the wall and the last possible answer for this kind of crimes are the evil, no childhood no nothing can explain a certain level of evilness. what do you think about this kind of behavior? I mean this mf is literally talking to the devil.
That man was an example of the worst kind of evil. I couldn’t even look at him when his picture came on the screen. Why they let men like him free to reoffend never ceases to amaze me. 😡
Prayers for Shasta. I can’t imagine the trauma. 😢
I didn’t think this story could get more heartbreaking, but imagining that poor, injured boy trying to make it back to his mother only to die at her feet just broke me. I can’t stop crying. Why do monsters like this exist? 😞

That poor young boy thought so hard to survive and then found the strength to get in the house to see if his family was ok, only to lose his life at the feet of his mother is so heartbreaking. This is such a sad story.

Sex offenders should NOT be allowed outside of prison, PERIOD. They deserve to rot there; they ARE ALMOST ALWAYS repeat offenders, and letting them back out causes crap like this.

Absolutely repulsive a truely worthless person that did nothing but spread misery during his time on earth.
This is brutal....and %10000 preventable. Why do they parole people like this guy? The parole board carries this crime on their backs and should be penalized for it.
I have to wonder if anybody should be paroled. It seems like they all just do more of the same thing that got them locked up in the first place!

it really doesn’t take a genius to work out this guy was so dangerous. the law needs to be much more specific when it comes to sexual crimes because there are those who don’t reoffend and then there are monsters like this who can’t wait to get back out there and do evil!

I saw an interview recently with an adult Shasta. She said that she spent the majority of her adolescence in juvenile detention. She didn’t go into detail but did mention that she self medicated to hide the pain of her trauma. She said that she knew every time someone looked at her they could see what was done to her, that she was “dirty.” It was heartbreaking. She spoke about the immense guilt she feels about not being able to keep Dylan safe and protect him. She made him a promise she was unable to keep, and she said for that reason she never makes promises anymore.
That poor girl :/
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
She had to undergo surgery after she was rescued for the damage Duncan did to her little body during the numerous rapes she endured. She does have children today. She said she has pictures of her brothers out, and her kids know they died, but she has not told them in what circumstances.
😢so sad
😢😭😭😭😭 I hope she finds light in her life somehow. She can make a promise to them to live. I pray she lives.
Can't even imagine what Slade went through. A young boy just hit by disastrous murder attacks gathered all his dying energy to check out on his family only to find his beloved parents not alive in his last moments 💔💔💔💔
Any sex crime against children should be a capital offense. No prison, no therapy.. just a slug to the temple. You can't be saved from that
Actually that is why Adonai YHWH sent his son, Yeshua HaMessiah into the world so that those that believe by repentance can be saved.
The only thing that one cannot be forgiven for is Blasphemy.
That's why those that believe need to stay in prayer continually for the people of Adonai Yeshua HaMessiah to be delivered from all forms of Darkness. Stop taking that sacrifice made by our Lord and savior for granted because their is power in the blood if Adonai Yeshua HaMessiah, because demons and devils are real and they do not appear like those in the movies.
Pray always for the will of Adonai YHWH to be done. The unrepentant will be condemned. Be careful not to be condemned along with them because you cannot forgive them. Shalom,
L'hllel, Amen.

Unfortunately then they kill all children guaranteed. most people actually agree though, and the push for these sickening 4 year charges etc is an abomination that nobody wants but the crazy radical socialist. They want crimes to be seen as mental heath issues and to treat society as children and believe in utopia.. social workers no cops, no boarders one global system etc. We must do our part by actually petitioning our lawmakers in our states where these things are decided. We must vote for policy and who we can trust to trust in that will actually push it to the ballot.

Ppl wonder why I'm so vigilant with my children. My daughter never leaves my sight when outside. We had a stalker roaming around our house a few years back and this created a very vigilant side to me. I literally took up night shift so I could be awake while my family sleep, been this way 6 yrs now. No one will be able to enter my house as I have all exits covered. If someone does end up in my house it's game over. They won't make it 2 feet.

When do you sleep then? And who protects the house then? I would think a dog or two would be sufficient and you'd be able to sleep at night so you can enjoy your kids during the day.
Absolutely gut wrenching event, but my god, Slade is an absolute hero. That boy lived through the whole thing to try and save his family. What a beautiful soul. Rest in peace you beautiful King.
Beautifully said.
I watched this story on different programs before. I can't even imagine what kind of hell they all went through especially the little boy Dylan. That one breaks my heart the most.
Me too. Dylan saw the devil, I hope he's seen heaven since. Breaks my heart 💔
This one is hard to watch. Rest in Peace Slade. What a handsome young man. And RIP to the mother & BF. I can't even imagine how horrible their last moments together must've been. Absolutely sickening to the core.

Oohhh…. Tiffani.
Just the tippy tippy top of the iceberg.

Don't pay attention to the trolls on your thread. Keep ignoring them because they're looking for attention.
Never leave any door unlocked at night when you go to sleep at night. If the family had locked that back door, they probably would have still been alive today. So sad 😢

I worked with Anthony Martinez's father, and lived in Beaumont California when that abduction occurred. It traumatized the whole state. May that killer rot in hell.
I can’t even imagine Slade’s last moments. Absolutely heart shattering.
This case was HORRIBLE. Instead of getting rid of the bodies, he left them around the house to rot. Joseph was BEYOND evil. That poor little girl. She must have been absolutely terrified. I am by no means religious, but I hope God helps that little girl heal and continues to punish Joseph on earth and in hell.
Edit: I also hope Slade feels a sense of justice wherever he is. He was truly a fighter.
Thanks for pointing out how HORRIBLE and BEYOND evil this case was. I’m sure people were struggling to figure that out for themselves.
Slade isn’t anywhere. Slade is gone. Thankfully his twisted evil murderer is now also gone.
Well you can google her name and find out really quickly that she became not the best person as well maybe due to her trauma.
Omg REALLLY? I don't see you saying the exact same thing to the initial video/content creator. If that's the way you feel...then why did you even watch the video?
God isn't real, neither is heaven.
This case made me fearful for my own family. It’s terrifying thinking about someone like this outside your home just watching and waiting.
Yeah tell that to all the mommies and family channels on this app. They are p*mping out their children to these sickos for likes and money. Redic
This story is creepy but we have cellphones and security systems now. not to say things don't still happen but random crimes are getting harder and harder to perpetrate,
Always lock your room
Get several guns and security system
Get German Shepherds and have them protection trained
What happened to Dillion has me in tears, no one should have to suffer like that.
For some reason the stories on this channel always feel almost like a fever dream when you narrate their actions and take us through the details step by step. It’s so haunting, the way their minds work. “I was putting them out of their misery.” Or “I was ending their suffering.” It’s terrifying to believe there are actual people out there that think like this. This channel is amazing btw, and I always feel so driven to take the route of being a detective or criminal investigator because there are people out there who truly need help and need to be found. The trauma and suffering is unbelievable. May they all find peace.
I've heard this case several times but I can 100% guarantee ain't nobody going to tell it like EWU! I'm looking forward to seeing this presentation format. Prayers for Shasta! This poor young woman went through total hell and back as a child yet managed to build the strength to grow up thriving! My ❤️ goes out to her on so many levels!
She grew up, but, she's not thriving
I sit here after finishing this story and my mind is racing with words like cruel and evil and inhuman. My heart goes out to the survivor and her family. Please, everyone, keep your heads on a swivel. Lock your doors and windows. Get sensors or cameras. Take care of eachother bc there are so many people in this world that want to do harm. It comes so easy to these criminals and I just can't wrap my head around how or why. That's why I love these videos. It's to help me understand the darkness that is real in this world so I take nothing for granted and can pay homage to the victims and their stories.
There’s so many fucking monsters out there
Exactly. We all never know how close we have come to being a victim in our lives. Evil lurks. I'm a single parent, pray for my child's safety daily. Taught her to shoot, self awareness. I teach Martial Arts to kids at our local rec center and can't get my child interested to learn and train. It's frustrating.
I knew of this case already and I wish they would have included some of the interviews that Shasta has given as an adult. If I remember everything correctly she has said that Joseph r*ped her too and had tried to strangle her to death but didn’t when she called him „Joe“ (which was supposedly how his mum called him). Another detail I would have liked to be mentioned is that Josep asked Shasta to visit him in prison when he was arrested at that Denny‘s and she said yes (but obviously never did). Imagine having the gall to ask a child to visit you in prison after brutally killing her whole family and torturing her. This guy was truly insane! I wish they would have elaborated on the things that he had written about his childhood.
If I recall correctly Shasta struggled with addiction and I think that at least one biological child was taken from her (as far as I understood not because of abuse but because of her addiction- which might have led to neglect idk). I‘ve seen comments scrutinizing her for that and I find that disgusting. Some people can’t even find empathy for an addict who endured what she did. The fact that she’s still alive is a miracle to me and shows how strong she is. I hope that she got the help that she needed.
This is truly one of the most horrifying cases I've ever heard, I feel such immense pain right now for the whole family
I do as well but it’s about people they stopped seeing each other as important everyone is in the doggie doggie fight not caring seeing others as nothing … for me I am successful why because I loved as a child helped my neighbor and tried to bring my friends to the lord I lived honest and happy I was for sure not perfect. But I tried ,… as a teen I stayed away from things bad most times lol I did my teen stufff but I was responsible helped my parents and we were poor but working together we had the basics .. I tried I failed sometimes but I am not evil so a success I. Old now you know over 55 I try
This is why child sex offenders need to do life in prison or death** they can not be rehabilitated..They always reoffend or end up killing.. Unfortunately the screwed up judicial system will never change and the children will always be in danger cuz of these sick monsters. So heartbreaking 💔💔

That was so wild. In that moment, he was 100% right about this country and how we aren't too concerned about fixing the reasons why people fall in the cracks of society, become victims, then become abusers. You are just supposed to "pick yourself up by the bootstraps" and make it through life no matter what hand you are dealt. Unfortunately, in the real world, that isn't something that can be done by everyone. Some people aren't born into money, or a loving family, or with total control of their mental facilities, so a stronger infrastructure of a safety net is vital to stop these things from happening. But like in most situations in this country, we don't try to prevent issues, we just react once something horrible happens. Its sad and it won't change.

It's very interesting to compare how men and women are treated during divorce proceedings, it doesn't take much for a court to decide a man is unfit to be a father but the mom could be an alcoholic and she could still get custody.

Youre response is to query vaccines and query some buildings that fell down through no freak of gravitational force but in fact fell down due to gravitational force.
Not sure this is the video to explain how gravity works to you but in short - what goes up must come down if it is confinded to earths gravitational field - you can try it at home by dropping a can of your favourite cheap beer from your hand and seeing what happens.

As for the 9/11 issue - it's called cause & effect - turns out you cant as a country interfere in the affairs & geo political affairs of other countries for 100 years and longer and no have something biting you in the arse..
3000 people odd died..somewhat less than the number of US fatalities in Guatemala, Nicaragua, Chile Cambodia, Vietnam, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait etc etc..just because americans died doesnt make the world stop buddy..America has been arming despots and killing other innocent people for decades..and still remains friends with dictators and human rights abusers..eventually some of those non white people are gonna get pissed off.

Just reading a lot of comments…💔 This happened near where I live and a few years ago Shasta was really not ok. She went missing with her sons (but were all located safe) and has had a really hard time (as anyone could imagine). People didn’t cover the case for years because she didn’t want to talk about it. I’m happy to see her speaking about it now because I hope that means she’s in a better place and with more publicity, I hope she’s given more resources, support, and love. ❤
I’ve watched specials on survivors that Elizabeth Smart works with and it’s made me sad to not see Shasta being with others that understand that kind of trauma and can share their support. I hope her speaking out helps get her all the things she needs
I was thinking of that too! I remember how when Jayme Closs escaped, Elizabeth Smart, another woman whose family was murdered by her abductor, and I think two other survivors of similar horrors met with Jayme to help give her hope and support.

Yea ! Found one I had missed , herd this story before,but you guys always add more detail, more about the story! That’s why your my favorited channel, been a long time subscriber to EUW SINCE THE FAMILY TOOK us on lots of adventures! 😊
This is one of the WORST cases I've came across. My heart goes out to those poor children. This is beyond disturbing.
I have to admit that this form of presentation is superior to others, and the voice of the narrator is awesome. Very professional EWU Crew, hats off.
This case rocked our community in ways it still hasn’t recovered. Shasta outsmarted Joseph Duncan and was more brave than anyone I know. They demolished the house but those awful memories will be with Shasta forever. Bless her heart
I watched half of it and I couldn’t stomach anymore. It brings to much memories up of my sweet sister
Im at a loss on this case, not enough words could explain how horrific this story is. It’s worse than any nightmare imaginable. My heart goes out to Shasta who will have to live with this for the rest of her life. Her life will be forever scarred. Knowing what happened to Dillon, just hope Joseph gets what he has coming for him in this life or the next.
I agree with you on all of this. I won’t even speak his name because such a creature as him is disgusting to even mention. He will rot in hell for what he has done to this poor innocent family, they didn’t ask for this nor did they deserve it. I may live on the opposite side of the country (east coast) but this is really heart breaking for me, I almost cried. But once more, this monster will suffer the same way this family did and he will rot in hell for eternity, the true and just punishment if you ask me. Disgusting beings like him do not even deserve parole nor do they deserve to walk and roam the earth once more after serving time. I’m so glad that me and you and all the other comments have the exact same opinions. May Shasta find peace and comfort with her father and move past this trauma
I can’t imagine how hard it will be for that little girl to ever feel safe again. Seeing her knowing that guy killed her family, watching video of her brother tortured, then see him get shot and killed, absolutely horrible. This was a rather hard one to listen to.
5 years ago she went to prison for endangering several of her children. And now she has 4 children with a 5th on the way…
@@VikingOfHumleafter going through something like this at such a young age I don’t think she was ever going to turn out normal
Thank you so much for covering this case. This happened in my state, and Shasta has not caught a break in life since. This case always brings me to tears, and i was just searching a month ago for a chanel like yours to have broken this down. One of the worst parts is the police tried to dub this as a meth deal gone wrong. Sickening. May they rest in peace, and I pray Shasta continues to recover.
That’s horrible to just rush to a decision like that. Little Shasta, I’m sorry to read that, hope she gets stronger. So sad.
Slade was so strong. He wanted to live. He wanted to help his siblings. He wanted to help his family. He died so brutually. That poor baby fought so so hard it breaks my heart.
When I first heard this story, I watched it on an ID discovery program, I was sick to my stomach. I’ve never been as disturbed by a case before. This one really got to me.
You gotta have a sad life to even agree to be an attorney for people like this.
Despicable 💯
there are attorneys that will be appointed to these cases to defend the killers as it is their rights to have one. Sad but it happens
This story had me in tears 😢 it was very difficult to hear. My hearts goes out to the daughter. I’m glad he was caught and she is safe. Slade fought for his family till his last breath😥.
People talking about the children Slade, Shasta, and Dylan but let’s not forget Anthony, Carmen and sammiejo -other childrens lives he also took.
As well as the parents he brutally beat.
Let’s take a moment for them all.
RIP ANGELS 🙏🏻
How disturbed can one’s mind be ?! It scares me to see how people can hurt innocent children and other people in such a horrible way !
Can’t put my mind around so much horror …
I remember hearing about this case on the news when I was a kid. I never knew how horrendous the details were, my parents always changed the channel before I could hear anything. My heart aches for Shasta. I can't begin to fathom what it's like going through something so abhorrent and traumatizing. Thank god she has her father to support her and get her mental\physical help she needs. She'll never read it but, good luck in your recovery Shasta, healing is possible ❤️
Same. I remember hearing about Shasta a lot….but had absolutely no idea how brutal it was & what poor Dylan went through. This is just terrifying & we already know there are more just like this monster
The amount of detail he went into easily makes this one of the worst cases I’ve heard in my life . How easily he just targeted a random family is beyond terrifying
Damn--- I've been watching a ton of your documentaries lately, EWU, but this one is definitely the most gruesome I've watched. I may need to take a break for awhile lol
Fantastic research job as always though!
The part where the abuser says “ he knew a lot about abuse… “ I have no doubt he did. Whatever suffering he may or may not have experienced in childhood that fuelled his later behaviour doesn’t wash with me. I have sympathy for the child in him and his earlier experiences but not for the adult for the following reasons. When we are grown, regardless of our history we become adults and have to take responsibility for the decisions we make. There are billions of people on this planet, many of home have experienced harder childhood experiences than this perpetrator, and yet they didn’t behave like him, also there are many other people who experienced less childhood harm than him and as adults did far worse!
Swings and roundabouts! There’s a point where regardless of our history we have to take the consequences of our behaviour. So he should never ever be set free in society again. The public have an absolute right to remain protected and I doubt very much he can be rehabilitated and even if he can be, his crimes are so heinous he should never be forgiven.
He ain't getting outta the prison he's in now.
Did you guys miss the part when he died Mar. 28th '21
Yes I did miss that part. No longer able to abuse ! However, if you believe in reincarnation he gets to have another go at it?
@@wingingninja LMAO believe in what you want, it wont change alot. Also, you were spewing alot of bullshit. You clearly have no idea that somebody, who had a traumatic childhood and nobody to support him (the abuser had to, otherwise unlikely he wouldve turned out that way), does not just simply "SNAP OUT" of it and "takes responsibility". You have no fucking single clue about what you're talking about. It might be the case if you're foolish, or mildly disturbed etc, but if you really got fucked up as a child and left to your own, you do not just magically turn around.
Even though I've heard about this case before, watching this video was like hearing about it again for the first time! The ways in which EWU presents these cases is so unique...& always on point! Thank you guys for all your work & effort. RIP to all the innocent victims of this evil monster & I sincerely hope Shasta is able to find some peace & comfort in her life.
My mom always told me, if they tie you up, you're as good as dead. Better to get shot running than tortured.
Idk why we live in a society where a mother has to tell their child something so awful.
no mother has to, she chose to. a big dog will protect their family member.
Why does this story seem constructed, bullet holes, no resistance, door open, People with trauma like slade’s don’t get up once, let alone twice, Brenda is not a woman
Mind you, this guy was doing this stuff nearly 30 years ago just the same.
And every psycho killer before at some point in history was doing it then.
Don't pull the whole "Oh, look at society" card out.
It's called the dark side of humanity, and it's been around as long as we have.
@@paprikaahmedTruthAddict tf?
@@ivankawnartist "dark side of humanity". Damn. Like the The Tale of Two Wolves (the good wolf and the evil wolf inside all of us).
This is one of the most horrific story I have heard so far. Brutal and unforgivable
Heartbreaking! This is a perfect example of not releasing these people out of prison
Druggies r. Ape and kill people also. Should we never let any of them out also??
“Took dog into custody” free my boy he’s innocent
Hahaha! That’s awesome 👏
Not guilty by reason of being a good boy!!
@@OGMsVixen 😂😂😂
This genuinely has to be one of the most sickening cases I’ve ever heard.
Slade is a true older brother, first child material, he fought till his last breath but it was too late for him, dying on his mother feet shows how he cares 😢
“The father turned to psychics to aid the search, but those efforts proved futile.”
Color me surprised.
I moved to Coeur d'Alene a few years after this happened but I had seen the news about it before the move and it really shook me and has stayed with me ever since. We personally weren't friends but my children and Shasta were and went to school together. I really feel for her and the incredibly horrifying experience she went through and had a really hard time growing up. Undoubtedly and not surprising after what she went through. I know she moved away a few years ago bc of constantly being asked about her ordeal and the constant reminder. She said she didn't want to be known as the girl who's family was murdered and wanted to go somewhere new to make a fresh start but she is still in Idaho. She has 2 kids now last I heard and doing as best as she can. To this day, I tell my children repeatedly to ALWAYS make sure the doors are locked. You never know what monster will base their evil decision on whether or not the door was left unlocked.
It's unbelievable how that girl went through 2 months of hell but still managed to keep herself alive and get herself found.
Hearing about the teenager standing back up when they left hit hard, especially knowing he went back inside and leaving the blood on his father, checking on his condition I'm sure and ended up next to his mother... Smfh That imagery is never going to leave my mind. R. I. P. young man, as well your family.
I would bet anything that not 1 person that commits acts like these could EVER be rehabilitated.
I was seven when the Groene case went on, and I grew up a few hours drive south of where it happened in Twin Falls. I remember hearing it on the news and how they were looking for the kids and how they were almost certain they were both dead. When Shasta was found it was absolutely--I guess mindboggling is the correct word. The fact that Dylan didn't make it was horrible. I don't know what ended up happening to Shasta or how she's doing today, but I wish her all the best and have all the love in the world for her.
Sorry to give you the bad news, but she’s had a terribly hard life even after her rescue. In and out of jail, issues with her dad being greedy…she’s not had an ounce of guidance
I feel like my soul is leaving me when I hear these gruesome details of Shasta's and her brother's story. I can't recall the last time I heard such a horrific story.
I knew Shasta growing up. She was a few grades lower than me... She went to my high school, and she had a friend group that was kind of polar to mine. I wish I would have reached out to her more than I did to become a friend that truly cares for her for life... But I was a shy emo kid, and was caught up back then... I hope she is doing well now, and is getting the love and care that she needs and deserves, from people who know how to love and care... which is rare.
