Letting tape roll while Brian laid out his memories of this heartbreaking tragedy, still obviously hard-wired into his brain almost 25 years later, is commendable - thank you for not interrupting where other creators would have tried to recapture the spotlight. You show such empathy and care, two things your parents instilled in you that you in turn share with us. Rest in love, Maddie.
You are one of my favorite TH-camrs Scott. You can go from being a total goofball on filming locations and making me crack up. Then do a complete 180 and do videos like this where you're so respectful and kind, you're awesome. Thank you for telling Maddie's story. RIP Maddie. cheers
I remember driving to her neighborhood to try and help search for little Maddie. I live in lake city fl so it was only a 45 minute drive. When she was finally located it crushed us all!! Ohh, sir, you are so right. Her life touched so many of us. This clip just brought it all back. May she continue to RIP. Thank you for coming and doing her story. May she never be forgotten.
Just tragic. Rest in piece Maddie and deepest sympathies to her family. Appreciate Brian for adding a local perspective & sharing his knowledge of case. Nature vs. nurture, most likely a little of both. For Sarah, deepest condolences. Scott, grateful you reached out to her & as always, appreciate you. Take care.
Thank you, Scott. This is the first time I am hearing this much detail about this little angel. I am crying. Done with your usual class and heart. And thanks to Brian. He is great.
Scott, you touch on tragedic topics with class and raw emotions. I respect that so much. God bless Maddie. May she have eternal peace and rest. Such a loss. 🕊️❤️🙏 What a beautiful song you chose. ❤
You guys did a beautiful job telling about Maddie. Thank you for your compassion and the love you guys have for this poor little girl. Rest in paradise Maddie 💔 and to Sarah's husband also 😢
We lived a few blocks from the Cliftons when this happened. She was buried in the cemetery behind our house. Our girls were Maddie's age. It was something that made us never letting our girls out of sight. My heart still breaks for Maddie and her family. 💔
Heartbreaking Story! I recall hearing about this story. To Sara…Sending you/your family my deepest heartfelt condolences. May peace and happier times come into your lives expeditiously! May Maddie R.I.P. her life was taken too young. 💔 Another, Great Job Scott!!! Brian Thank You 🙏
Not only is this a very sad and tragic story, but a story of incredible parents with the most beautiful hearts. Being a mother myself, this one really touched my heart. Thank you for covering this story with such empathy and grace. To Sarah (not sure I spelled her name correctly) may your husband rest in peace and I hope each day brings you strength and peace.
Your line of vlogging is kind of scary and heartbreaking knowing the stories of the victims and how it ended. Thank you for being compassionate on the victims and showing mercy to the parents of the victim. Please take care always and May God Bless you keep you away from any harm.
A very tragic story. I enjoy the crime stories mixed with the compassion always shown for the victim, the family, and the homage paid at the gravesite. Beautiful musical montage. Thank you, Scott! And thanks to Brian!
Alot people think being a youtuber is not a real job but you work hard and have alot compassion you have the best Job. and you love what you do and if if to you it matters to me. And scott you matter to me. from Vickie🥰
Maddie reminds me of a young Nadia Comaneci. That was heartbreaking. It's a shame that her life was cut tragically short. I know the boy that killed her was abused himself but that doesn't excuse what he did. My prayers are with Maddie's family and friends.
Well said Brian. Maddie has touched more than just that community. God bless her and God bless both of you for this humbling story. May that monster never get out of prison.
It's so eerie, the street is so quiet, while you guys reminisce about something so horrific that happened so long ago. It's nice hearing that Maddie's parents & the mother of Josh became close. Usually a tragedy divides families. But they acknowledged one anothers pain. Takes a lot of strength to do that, & to come together to in a way help heal one another to a degree. But I can't imagine reliving that like he is telling that story, at the very locations it took place & also where the media hung out in search of answers. Just so crazy how such tragic things happen, but the world just keeps going, & moving & how things can change even at the locations of such tragedy
I lived in Jax, FL when this happened. I was a young mom of 2 girls and I remember hugging them so tight that day. I watched the whole story play out in the news. So heartbreaking. Fly high Maddie 😇💜
You did a beautiful job of covering this story. You are so very respectful of the victims and their families. I don’t know why the boy didn’t just tell her to run home. This is heartbreaking.
This happened in my city, right around the time I was a kid her age. I remember some of my friends at the time knew Maddie and discovering when she was found. I can remember that being the point where I discovered that evil was very real in this world. R.I.P Maddie!
when I lost my 2nd baby boy I was heart broke. but i new that I had a little girl to take care of so It was hard and still is to day. You have helped me with listening to your videos. Yhanks Scott for your gift of calming people down.
Thank you Scott and Brian for sharing this story of Maddie I live in Australia and hadn’t heard of this one you both did her proud I could tell how Brian was truely affected he spoke so well! RIP Maddie ….keep up your great work Scott! 🤙🏻
I totally remember this case. It was truly heartbreaking when she was found and everything came out. Another great video Scott and your guest did a great job too. I absolutely loved his accent. Her parents helping the boys mom really touched me. They are beautiful people to forgive the mom, or not to blame her I guess is what I mean. RIP Maddy🕊🕊🕊🕯🕯🕯
Randomly stumbled across this video. Im in the 🇬🇧. Its tragic and sensless to hear when children kill children, just makes me cry. you guys did a wonderful job telling this little girls story in a very tactful way. Thankyou so much, had to subscribe.
Im from the UK and watch your chanel and just want to say how Brilliant you are . When you tell the life story im transported to where ever you are with your compation you are truly remarkable and you make sure the people you talk about are not forgotten . ❤
Thank you,Scott and, Brian for this video. In remembrance of,Maddy. It makes me realize how blessed we are to see our kids grow, and love them, care for them.
Such a sad and tragic story, Scott, you always show how much you care about these poor victims of violence. You give them a voice, thank you to Brian too for sharing the story of what happened. RIP Maddie you will never beforgotten.
You bring such respect and humanity to the victims in your stories. I remember this young girl from the news. Thanks to you guys I feel like I now know who Maddie was. Thank you for the respectful way you do your pieces. ❤
I remember when we were still looking for Maddie. I’m from Jacksonville Florida. I was 20 when this happened. Then in 2009 my friends daughter went missing from Orange Park Florida. She was kidnapped, *aped, killed, and dumped in a landfill in GA.
Scott as always you put these videos out and make them beautiful have the upmost respect to the familes of the lost ones. You make these videos with love and pride thank you sharing this sad tragic yet beautiful way of telling people what happened.
I was glad to remember this story and this little girl. Was such a sad loss. I remember on 20/20 or one of those shows, her sisters talked about Maddie liking the Dixie Chicks and their song “ Wide open spaces” So sad.
Good Evening Scott 🙋🏽. It's good to see you today ‼️ and I hope you had a marvelous day ‼️ thank you for inviting me to watch your video. This was a good one. So Sad 😭.
Thank you Scott for never letting us forget those who were loved and no longer here by telling their story...your a very good man. Rest in peace Maddie. 💕🙏
I remember the story of Maddie's tragic death. Watching this video made my heart ache for her family once again. Thank you for sharing her story. Rest in blessed peace little Maddie.
@@sandrawg2614he could have been babysitting her. There was a time when they could be trusted to watch children. My neighbour let her son who was 11 years older than her youngest watch her when she had to run out to get something
If Maddie and the boy were playmates he could have been emotionally delayed or intellectually delayed which was why they could have been playmates. It could also have been a case of there were no other children in the neighbourhood for them to play with in their age groups. I lived in a neighbourhood where I was the only girl in my age group so I had to play with the boys. It is a tragic situation and a tragedy happened.
Such a sad story but told very tastefully and respectfully, as always Scott. I love the music you choose for your videos, especially Jory Nash. Is there any way to find/buy these online?
@SCOTT ON TAPE - Your Pop Culture Tour Guide that's a shame, but I'll look forward to hearing more of them through you. Thank you for taking the time to reply as well. I think your videos are great and have been watching your older ones as I'm a relatively new subscriber with similar interests and age.
What a precious little girl, I remember this. RIP Maddie. You two did such a beautiful job honoring her memory, you always do a beautiful job. As for Sara, I can’t imagine… such a strong woman. You and your children keep staying strong & Scott you keep that wonderful big heart you have there.
Beautifully done as always Scott. Brian was great too with the information. I’ve watched this on 48hrs too. Very sad and tragic story. Heartbreaking. R.I.P Maddie.
Brother I may not have the same beliefs and viewpoints you do but I can really appreciate what you do for all of these folks that suffered such severe tragedies.
Damn. You can cover something so sick yet pull out the real story, all about Maddie. So touching. I found myself in tears and not even knowing i was crying. I could only hope if i knew or had a family member who passed away so violently, someone like you could cover it. ❤❤ prayers for Maddie and her family 🙏🙏
[ Nannie Ruth ] Scott you always say ''have empathy, compassion, & don't judge''. Its so heart breaking that this was 2 children R.I.P. Maddie & [ how can you judge that boy with the circumstances he was in] '' ok i'm going to say bless his heart because he was frightened , this makes me want to shed tears for both of them, it makes me think about a little girl around here [ Shannon Paulk] that was abducted from her home & she lived in a trailor park in ''Prattville, Al..''If i remember I think she was about 12 maybe [ 9] its been so long ago , maybe [ 20] yrs & they never found out who murdered her. It was in the news for awhile, I hate hearing things when it comes to children [ that why i was so protected of my own kids] it breaks my heart & i just want to cry for them.
You honestly handle true crime stories so well this is why i love your channel mainly cause you focus more on the victims rather than the suspects If get a chance please do more videos with Brian cause i just love his storytelling Sarah im so sorry for your loss i know what its like to lose a love one (i lost my grandfather in 2018 and im still grieving over it)
One of the worst crimes I've ever read about, i think because it was a kid killing a kid made it even harder to fathom. What that poor sweet girl went through and how scared she must have been is just heartbreaking. I also feel sorry for his mother who had to find Maddie. I agree some kill by nature, whilst others are made from nurture or the lack thereof. Another highly respectful video honouring the one who matters. RIP sweet sweet angel girl 🩶
I do believe the way your raised can affect your personality and actions in life. I was very close to someone whose mother abused him and in turn he became an abuser that lasted a lifetime. It was awful. That doesn't mean he should ever get out because most are also taught right from wrong, and a lot of the way people act is pure conscience that steers us to always do the right thing. I also believe you can be born with a personality disorder that could later turn you in to a killer. It's a sad situation for both of these kids. RIP Maddie. Thank you to your friend Brian was so willing to share his knowledge of this crime with us. It really brought this story to life.
I am close to and know so many people that were abused. One of the women I love very much was abused in ways you read about and think, " that could never really happen". IT did. This woman is a lovely person, works everyday, supports her partner and her partners son. She is too good at times and I tell her to be careful as some may take advantage of her. I have known her now for over 20 years and she is like a sister to me, and she feels the same. She has never, ever hurt anyone. She isn't as good to herself as she should be, but never hurt anyone , even verbally.
It's weird though, having suffered from terrible abuse and neglect in my childhood, I remember my first bloody nose and split lip was from my mom punching me in the face when I was five for asking her about my father, who I never was allowed to know. I could literally write a novel on everything that I was put through. And you know, I absolutely do not believe in hitting children, ever, for any reason. Not just children, either. Because of everything that I went through, because I know how it feels, the last thing that I ever want to do is hurt anybody and make another person feel the way that I was made to feel
Another one to tug at my heart strings. I wish I could give the parents a really big hug. Including the boys' mom. As a father, I know what that would do to the mind and heart of a parent.
I remember this! It happened when I was in 8th grade and kids from her school would connect for their school buses at our middle school. When her body was found they offered everyone at our school and hers guidance/grief counselings. It was really sad what happened to such a beautiful little girl
What a heartbreaking story-not only for little Maddie but the boy who killed her. I can only imagine all he went through in his 14 years. So, so sad. You did a great job presenting this story. I also want to commend you on what you said about the lady you met in the cemetery and grief. You are right, some people just need to talk and sometimes it’s easier with a stranger. Keep up the great work. Thank you.
You have a knack, Scott, of handling some really tough stories with the utmost respect and sensitivity. RIP Maddie.
Beautifully said! I agree 💯 % He’s got talent
I guess I'm about see
Yes. Always.
Agree!
Thank you Steve !

I thought the same thing after just watching this video😎from the guy who paste and died to poor Maddie Clifton 😢 RIP sweet 😇
Hey Scott I adore your videos I know you're probably got a ton of request but I was wondering if you had a chance to make a video about Amber hagerman
Amazing how her family showed his mom grace. Don’t feel like I would ever be able to do that.
I would consider the mama a victim as well, just not her sons victim.

Its always so sad when it is young kids taking too soon. Good jobs on all your videos
Thank you for the knowledge...again here in the UK....RIP maddie.
Rest in peace, thankyou for the video
From, N.Y
One of the worst crimes I've ever read about, i think because it was a kid killing a kid made it even harder to fathom. What that poor sweet girl went through and how scared she must have been is just heartbreaking. I also feel sorry for his mother who had to find Maddie.
I agree some kill by nature, whilst others are made from nurture or the lack thereof.
Another highly respectful video honouring the one who matters.
RIP sweet sweet angel girl 🩶
Another great video Scott like always. This one made me sad and mad at the same time. You're a great man Scott keep up the good work.🤟

Thank you to your friend Brian was so willing to share his knowledge of this crime with us. It really brought this story to life.
Nurture verses Nature right
I am close to and know so many people that were abused. One of the women I love very much was abused in ways you read about and think, " that could never really happen". IT did. This woman is a lovely person, works everyday, supports her partner and her partners son. She is too good at times and I tell her to be careful as some may take advantage of her. I have known her now for over 20 years and she is like a sister to me, and she feels the same. She has never, ever hurt anyone. She isn't as good to herself as she should be, but never hurt anyone , even verbally.
It's weird though, having suffered from terrible abuse and neglect in my childhood, I remember my first bloody nose and split lip was from my mom punching me in the face when I was five for asking her about my father, who I never was allowed to know. I could literally write a novel on everything that I was put through.
And you know, I absolutely do not believe in hitting children, ever, for any reason. Not just children, either. Because of everything that I went through, because I know how it feels, the last thing that I ever want to do is hurt anybody and make another person feel the way that I was made to feel
Another one to tug at my heart strings. I wish I could give the parents a really big hug. Including the boys' mom. As a father, I know what that would do to the mind and heart of a parent.
Well done Scott, you're a big guy, this was so gracefully done. Marie from the UK
Terrible tragedy. 😭
Beautiful tribute.
*God Bless you both.*
♥️♥️
I remember this! It happened when I was in 8th grade and kids from her school would connect for their school buses at our middle school. When her body was found they offered everyone at our school and hers guidance/grief counselings. It was really sad what happened to such a beautiful little girl
Thank you for sharing. So sad. RIP LITTLE ANGEL. Scott would you ever consider covering the awful tragic death of 2 year old Kelsy Briggs?😢 Thank you
I’ll look into that story sure
@@SCOTTONTAPE if you can't I understand it just moved me to tears
Nicely done Scott. One of your best yet.
Very respectful. ❤️
What a heartbreaking story-not only for little Maddie but the boy who killed her. I can only imagine all he went through in his 14 years. So, so sad. You did a great job presenting this story. I also want to commend you on what you said about the lady you met in the cemetery and grief. You are right, some people just need to talk and sometimes it’s easier with a stranger. Keep up the great work. Thank you.
