The parents are monsters. How are they allowed to keep custody of their kids? They should have been charged with something like endangering the welfare of a child.

Greed is one of the most powerful sins in the universe and it can easily corrupt your soul into getting what you want when really it brings suffering to those around you.
The child actor who played this kid had to have gone through therapy after this role. To actually play it so well, you have to grasp something in you that gives this kind of performance.
I remember that actor. He won that Disney Channel contest in 2005 for a guest role on That’s So Raven. They aired those commercials a dozen times a day. I couldn’t place him at first until I looked it up. Shane Haboucha
Fact: in the ending the father and mother moved the kid out of state to keep him from testifying and the father was held in contempt as he still refused to give up the boys location and the lawyer who was appointed to look After his sons best interest was determined to keep the father in jail until he gave in
That would have been me If I had let it go that long That dad figured out his screw up and knew it was time to fix it, not put kid thru more trauma The boy can get help he needs privately and the mom n sister also. The state certainly wasn’t going to help at all. Those “experts” are help to anyone. Maybe dad gets out, maybe not. He finally sees his son is most important so he is willing to stay.
@@briannamarz9343 Thats even worse. When you defend and encourage bad behaviour with "but the kid went through so much" the kid learns that is ok to hurt people when you had trauma. Its one of the worst things you can teach a child.
"Don't blame THEM. They didn't make me do this." The hurt, annoyance, and DISGUST in his voice and eyes at his father as he blatantly lies about what could be the cause of his behavior when he KNOWS the real cause but wants to ignore it and play pretend family. Great actor, but so sad this is a reality for too many in life. They didn't just potentially destroy their son, they put their other child in danger and made him a threat to others in his surroundings not only hiding it, but refusing to get him help, even if off the record. Disgusting.
“You don’t understand! I’m not allowed to talk about it!” The way he just stands up and goes from 1 to 100, knocking stuff over, was truly a child screaming and hurting inside. And since he didn’t know what else to do with those intense emotions and trauma, he really did impulsively want the world to burn and suffer with him. It doesn’t excuse that he’s hurt others but all the blame isn’t on him but all on his parents for betraying him. I don’t get how parents can sleep at night being aware what’s happened to their kid like that.
There was a kid in my high school who violently threatened me in a very horrific way and I reported him to the principal, he got in huge trouble even the teachers got on him. But also, he got help, they sent him with the school psychologist, the principal became his friend and he apologized to me. He became my good friend afterwards also, never ever said anything negative to me again. He was a good guy, he just held a lot in. He also told me how his little brothers, parents and pet dogs got on his nerves everyday and he had no peace in his home
Did that kid try to physically hurt you? Because if not then the kid shouldn't have gotten in trouble right? Because behavior problems aren't a crime. Also have a good day.
He got no peace at home and everyone got on his nerves 🤐. That is no excuse for "violently threatening someone in an horrific way". Bullying is not exceptable & fair play to the school for taking action. Behaviour problems mightened be a crime but there are some cases in some circumstances where the situation "at home" got out of control & the child not only harmed the family but then proceeded on to school where they committed further crimes. At least by being reported he got help.
@@thefighter5182If someone verbally told you they want to torture you, mutilate you and burn you alive, would you think they shouldn't get in trouble because they didn't try to physically hurt you?
@@thefighter5182 You can commit crime without physically hurting someone. Threatening someone, getting confrontational with them.. Those are crimes. I don't know what you're talking about here.
This reminds me of the gymnast, whose parents accepted that money when that doctor was inappropriately touching their kid and others, and went on to do it again. That whole thing made me sick.
This episode was based on the late Michael Jackson and the story behind it was that Mr. Tripley who is a toymaker, has frequent visits from children and as a result, he has his own room called the treasure chest. In the end, A mother and her son attempted to blackmail Mr. Tripley by planting evidence which would backfire. But the character's father in the episode, would be in jail indefinitely and the son would be sent to another state with stabler stating, 'we will get him'
Not too split hairs but it was a Grand Mother and Grand Daughter who tried to blackmail Mr Tripley but it worse as the Grand Mother ws poisoning her Grand Daughter to look like she suffered from leukemia. That ending though where Mr Tripley is having a party to celebrate being cleared of charges surrounded by kids is haunting.
I would be upset too if my parents accepted hush money from my abuser. His parents are absolutely disgusting, it’s so inhumane what they let the abuser do to their OWN kid.
I really miss this era of SVU with Elliot. They went with some dark but also realistic cases that really packed a emotional punch that the later seasons never really managed to recapture.
Does anybody else want them to revisit this because I do. Especially with JJ and seeing what happened to him. Knowing that he did not need to keep quiet, and that contract was garbage his parents signed just to get money. I would love to see a grown up JJ walk into the Squad as a new detective because SVU were the only people who realized he had a problem and actively tried to help him.
Not to mention the episode ends with Stabler confident that they'll be able to lock up that creep one day. A nice follow up could be that the father ends up brutally beaten or killed, with a grown up JJ deciding to just kill Billy and his mom since the law is unable to make any progress. But on the "bright side", his little sister ends up becoming a good person (and maybe a mother who is far better than her own).
I've never watched this show, but it's clear the psychologist was the only one who realised the child was being abused because of how "adult" he was acting. I feel like if a little girl was acting out the same way, the detectives would've figured it out too. This is how sexually abused children act.
It's absurd that "Billy" didn't end up at Riker's Island because of his wealth, the justice need to be impartial it simply cannot be bought on the expense of Heroes, Legends or Loved Ones.
This is one of the saddest episodes in my opinion. And the lady who planted "evidence" that basically made the guy walk free so they had no choice but to wait for the next victim. I understand wanting to catch these guys but the other guardian who planted evidence fucked the whole investigation up. Uhg. It saddens me that stuff like this happens too and then look at the system vs the tv. I know there are good and bad cops/detectives but let them do their job theyll find what they need to put these guys away as best they can. The good ones anyway
@@LadyBern I honestly don't remember if she did it for the money. I just remember her saying she wanted to catch the guy. But doing that doesn't help anybody. I'll have to rewatch it
@@lucy-louthebeagle4511 I went over the recap. Yeah it combined the MJ Neverland ranch thing and bits of the Blanchard case with the severe Munchausen by proxy or just a scammer. It wasn't that she was doing it to put a sick man in jail she was sick and craved the attention and money they got for being the parent/guardian of a victim.
@LadyBern oh wow. I don't remember that. Definitely going to rewatch it! I do remember even without the lady involved there was mixes of other stuff involved
This episode was such a bummer. Once they get the billionaire guy in custody JJ’s lawyer produces this video of JJ(the kid) recanting the allegation and saying he lied, then he disappears. The Dad refuses to tell the detectives where JJ is and is put in jail under contempt of court. JJ is eventually found in Maine with an uncle but before they can arrest the uncle and get JJ they flee across the border into Canada. Another little girl with cancer claims she was abused by Billy, but it ends up being that her Grandmother had been poisoning her to make it look like she had cancer and forced her to lie about the abuse for money. The grandmother, the little girls only family member, is put in prison and the girl is put in foster care. The end of the episode is especially sick, it ends with Billy throwing a big party at his mansion for all these little kids, and Stabler and Olivia just have to watch as this guy is being hugged by all these kids. It’s such a bummer episode.
And possibly worst of all, and as Novak puts it, Billy (the millionaire guy) can now claim false accusations to any child with a legitimate claim of abuse at his hands.
Never let your kids stay at anybody and everybody's house. Friend or no friend, boss or no boss. You'd be surprised how many kids have come out as adults about their parents' friends abusing them sexually, verbally, physically, emotionally, psychologicaly and sometimes all five. How many more kids have to be added to this list before parents get the message? How many?
That’s hardly fair. While yes it’s true that kids are far more likely to be hurt by someone they know than a stranger, not every trusted adult is doing this nor can we keep kids in a bubble. Kids deserve to have sleepovers with friends and spend time with relatives and family friends without mom and dad. The only solution is to teach kids to look for red flags and for parents to also spot red flags and make themselves safe people for kids to confide in.
@@pisces2569no they don't need sleepovers. For what? Why risk it? That's what those parents did and look what happened. Stop putting their lives at risk. You can be happy without sleepovers. Signs don't help
10:02 “And if they’re not I always get permission over the telephone” 10:08 “All the time, what’s wrong with that.” I could just be seeing what I want to see, but Will Keenan’s acting here is so subtle but cool. His expression and way of saying the lines sounds more like a child trying to be assertive, pretending to be an adult than an actual adult. As if he’s a toddler on the naughty step trying to explain why the toilets clogged and the disappearance of his dad’s keys aren’t connected…
Where is DCFS/CPS in all of this? They should have taken protective custody and the girl should have talked to a child advocate because the cops are not trained in these types of situations.
@@jerryfiore5818 That 11 minute clip told me what I needed to know about their process. There is nothing to extrapolate because I do not have their known data. I know what is supposed to happen but not all departments follow the rules. My comment stands as correct.
Can’t punish what you can’t prove. With the witness gone they can’t have a trial. At best they would hold the dad until the kid comes back and the trial can begin but it never happened.
This Kid reminds me of myself when I was his age thank God At least one of my Parents were Decent enough to Get me help. I had a lot of people in my life Help me out of it and now I'm doing Better. It's never too late for these kids man they just need to want change. They need to desire to grow and be better. Give them a reason.
This makes me want to cry. I never experienced this, but it's horrible. No child should go through this. Why can't active pedophiles understand the harm they cause ?
I knew I was opening a can of worms when I clicked on this one, but I do have one answer possibly theory for these kinds of criminals if not offenders: It's the one that some people just don't get a lot of times they don't care. As for terrorists for them it's like a mission, collateral damage, whatever you want to call it, when you're a terrorist, they think they're the good guys for their cause but more often than not the rules of war aren't black and white. I wish I had a better answer but this is just based on what I've seen and heard.
There's a lot of reasons why I can hardly manage to watch more than one episode of this show, some of the cases have just hit way too close to home, and my heart just bleeds for the victims. Whether it be domestic or child abuse it doesn't matter to me, on the other hand when you enable or make excuses for abuse that's not good either. work of fiction or not, I swear a lot of these are inspired by real events making them just as disturbing. I know very well that with domestic violence, no two cases are the same and more often than not there's more to it than it looks I try not to be biased I try not to be a judgmental but sometimes it's harder than others. I won't put the show down but I don't think this is a show that can be binged I've got a lot of compassion and empathy for domestic violence and abuse victims I can't help it It's just how I am
This is exactly why I never was excited about turning 18. Everyone believes turning 18 is a big deal. No expects a kid to be a school shooter or a harm towards others for no other reason besides the kid being under 18. If you are 17, people don’t see you capable of harming others. If you are 18 or above then they consider the possibility that this person can cause harm. I don’t give children the benefiting of any doubt just because they are under 18 or elementary school children. There is a strong possibility that someone can be a harm towards others. That is why people often fail to detect school shooters or other type of kids who can cause harm: They don’t think a kid or a kid under 18 is capable of doing so; so they would turn a blind eye. I have 3 baby cousins and they behave all time and hardly ever cause trouble. Does that mean I will ignore the possibility that they could one day be a threat just because they behave under my watch all the time? No. I prefer to keep an open mind and possibilities open. It’s always those you least expect that can leave you surprised and who you don’t see coming; that why someone being under 18 doesn’t work on me; they are still capable of doing harm. Those under 18 do the crime then they do the time.
I've never met anyone who thinks a 17 year old "isn't capable of harming others." Just because the law defines adulthood as 18+, that doesn't mean anyone thinks that people under 18 can't cause harm. Literally no one thinks that. Even under the law, minors are frequently charged as adults if the crime is severe.
@@JJ-yc2svoh really? Tell that to Vaughn. A teenage girl had been posting mixes of herself online and many people are attacking that dumb teen girl for it. Stacey Vaughn in the other hand says that the girl does know any better because she below 18. She said that herself. Old classmates I found did a predator bust of a guy they once knew in highschool. He did something no one expected. He was 16 and made an 11 year old give him a blow job. We discovered it after a pedophile bust when he was yrs later 23 trying to meet with a 13 year old. His parents excused him when he was 16. You honestly think that no one actually thinks what I just pointed out? Because guess what, they do!!!
@@JJ-yc2sv tell that about an 11 year old psycho who killed his own sister all because of cookies. No one bothered to look into him just because he was 11.
@@francostevo9939 What are you even talking about? They obviously DID "look into him" or it never would've been known that he'd done anything. Everyone knows that children are plenty capable of harming others. Have you never heard the common phrase "kids can be so cruel" ? Also, don't think I didn't notice that you tried to use an 11 year old as evidence of your claim about 17 year olds. Even if he truly had been overlooked, that wouldn't support the claim you made. Where is your evidence of people thinking that 17 year olds are "incapable of harming others" ? The fact that juvenile detention centers exist is proof that, as a society, we recognize that children can and do harm others.
The parents were the reason the guy got away because they ran away and hid their son who is the only witness to the case I’m guessing they got bribed again. So the trial got dismissed ( I think ).
The fucked up thing is, with the context, it is possible that the parents did not so much care about their sons wellbeing as they wanted him not to to be in a position in which his motivation to talk outweighed his fear of his parents.
No amount of money would keep me from seeing a predator be locked up if it was my child. I know this is just a show, however, I wouldn’t doubt if that hasn’t happened before.
Very important that everyone know this! No contract or NDA can be used to cover up a crime or keep someone silent about a crime. If you are aware of a crime that was committed, but signed a privacy contract or NDA, that contract becomes null and void in that regard. You not only have the legal right to speak up without repercussion, but you have a moral obligation to speak up. No one can use a contract to keep a victim quiet. They may try. But they won’t. If it goes to court, there are many victim advocacy groups who ensure victims are represented, aren’t bribed or scared into complacency and keeping quiet, and to prevent pressures being put on them, both emotional, social, and financial. Some perpetrators will try to use contracts to punish someone for speaking up or to try and keep them quiet. “I’ll sue you if you speak up” etc. Just reach out to a victims advocacy group and they can help navigate you through the legal system when NDA’s and privacy contracts are involved and someone is trying to use those to keep people quiet about said crime.
When an airsoft group I played with accused me of stealing money (and had nothing but suspicions), rather than even think of speaking in defense of me, my old man went off on me and ordered me to pretty much accept responsibility for it. So yeah, what this kid's parents did doesn't surprise me in the slightest. You'd think your own flesh and blood would always stand up for you, but it turns out that even they're capable of betraying you.
I remember this one. The dad hides JJ somewhere and without JJ testifying against him, Billy is acquitted. He throws a pajama party with a bunch of kids to celebrate at the end.
@@bellaknightR597 pretty sure he is heavily inspired from MJ while not trying to look exactly like him to avoid a real lawsuit. They both even have the similar allegations even if he didn't look like him.

I don't understand why you wouldn't protect your child. That's your job!! This child actor is great. I often wonder how these kids are spoken to on set.
Given how perverse Hollywood is I would say they are not treated well. Look at Corey Feldman & Corey Haim. Both victims of child moIestation in the 80's. didn't end with them either & still goes on to this day.
More of a sociopath rather than a psychopath. Psychopaths are usually born without a conscious, sociopaths are bred from environments of abuse and neglect.
I know a kid like him. He’s 6, his dad is creepy and his mom doesn’t do anything just afraid. They divorced and the kid got worse. He’s not allowed to be around other kids not the schools in the area for hurting kids. He would fight and rage. He got kicked out at 4 or 5 I think. I moved so idk how he is now but this made me think of him
Why are parents leaving their kids unattended with some random man, no matter his social class? It's giving they were sold from the beginning because we could barely stay the night at our cousins' homes growing up.

Greed, hubris, simple evil.
Desperation
Don’t understand it. Condemn it.
They can always make more kids but a pay-off of that size only ever comes around once.
Greed it the root of all evil and it comes in all but it has a price which harms the innocent in it's path😭🥺☹️
The kid who played JJ is excellent. I either feel sorry for him or he scares me.
The parents are monsters. How are they allowed to keep custody of their kids? They should have been charged with something like endangering the welfare of a child.
Really? You're outraged that the parents on a fictional TV show weren't charged with something? I guess you're probably also outraged that Rose wasn't charged with manslaughter for not letting Jack on the door in Titanic.

Whoever played this kid back in those early years of law and order is a phenomenal actor.
Shane houbaca. He was in Stacy's mom music video
The parents didn't help their son because his suffering was their $4,000,000 gain.
Disgusting how his parents caved into greed like that.
I won’t lie that is a tempting offer very tempting but if I had to choose between my child’s well-being and twice that much money I’ll go for my child’s well-being no question
@@fantasy-writing-v5zI totally agree. In the words of Reginald VelJohnson: "I can't shave w/ my eyes closed."
What he meant by that is that nobody ever wants to look into the mirror, & find a criminal staring right back.
Greed is one of the most powerful sins in the universe and it can easily corrupt your soul into getting what you want when really it brings suffering to those around you.
The child actor who played this kid had to have gone through therapy after this role. To actually play it so well, you have to grasp something in you that gives this kind of performance.
I remember that actor. He won that Disney Channel contest in 2005 for a guest role on That’s So Raven. They aired those commercials a dozen times a day. I couldn’t place him at first until I looked it up. Shane Haboucha
He was also the boy in the Stacy's Mom music video
Lol..... SINGING...in the hallway
He played the hall monitor right?
@@Starfire10982 yup and one of the kids who almost got the role was the kid who later played Ned on Ned’s Declassified.
@@TheHIDDENPLAYBOOK444 😂😂🤣🤣 yup.
They basically took the route of "how can we base this off Micheal Jackson without actually explicitly say it was Micheal Jackson?"
Yes. It was so obvious. They even used some of MJs actual words when he was accused.
My thought exactly! And the actor looks somehow like him!
Exactly
I was just thinking that. Like when I first saw him I instantly thought of MJ and the whole plot too.
💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃
I loved how Olivia calmed the little girl. In this scene Olivia has savage moments
I think it was her daughter.
Fact: in the ending the father and mother moved the kid out of state to keep him from testifying and the father was held in contempt as he still refused to give up the boys location and the lawyer who was appointed to look
After his sons best interest was determined to keep the father in jail until he gave in
That would have been me
If I had let it go that long
That dad figured out his screw up and knew it was time to fix it, not put kid thru more trauma
The boy can get help he needs privately and the mom n sister also. The state certainly wasn’t going to help at all. Those “experts” are help to anyone.
Maybe dad gets out, maybe not. He finally sees his son is most important so he is willing to stay.

Encouraging and defending bad behavior and action will only end badly.
if you knew what his parents put him through youd understand
@@briannamarz9343 Thats even worse. When you defend and encourage bad behaviour with "but the kid went through so much" the kid learns that is ok to hurt people when you had trauma. Its one of the worst things you can teach a child.
@briannamarz9343 what his parents put him through? What about his abuser?
"Don't blame THEM. They didn't make me do this."
The hurt, annoyance, and DISGUST in his voice and eyes at his father as he blatantly lies about what could be the cause of his behavior when he KNOWS the real cause but wants to ignore it and play pretend family.
Great actor, but so sad this is a reality for too many in life.
They didn't just potentially destroy their son, they put their other child in danger and made him a threat to others in his surroundings not only hiding it, but refusing to get him help, even if off the record. Disgusting.
“You don’t understand! I’m not allowed to talk about it!”
The way he just stands up and goes from 1 to 100, knocking stuff over, was truly a child screaming and hurting inside. And since he didn’t know what else to do with those intense emotions and trauma, he really did impulsively want the world to burn and suffer with him.
It doesn’t excuse that he’s hurt others but all the blame isn’t on him but all on his parents for betraying him. I don’t get how parents can sleep at night being aware what’s happened to their kid like that.
There was a kid in my high school who violently threatened me in a very horrific way and I reported him to the principal, he got in huge trouble even the teachers got on him. But also, he got help, they sent him with the school psychologist, the principal became his friend and he apologized to me. He became my good friend afterwards also, never ever said anything negative to me again. He was a good guy, he just held a lot in. He also told me how his little brothers, parents and pet dogs got on his nerves everyday and he had no peace in his home
Did that kid try to physically hurt you? Because if not then the kid shouldn't have gotten in trouble right? Because behavior problems aren't a crime. Also have a good day.
He got no peace at home and everyone got on his nerves 🤐. That is no excuse for "violently threatening someone in an horrific way". Bullying is not exceptable & fair play to the school for taking action. Behaviour problems mightened be a crime but there are some cases in some circumstances where the situation "at home" got out of control & the child not only harmed the family but then proceeded on to school where they committed further crimes. At least by being reported he got help.
@@thefighter5182If someone verbally told you they want to torture you, mutilate you and burn you alive, would you think they shouldn't get in trouble because they didn't try to physically hurt you?
@@blueberryoatmeal4009Indeed, b/c those words would be red flags showing that he does have some kind of problem & needs help.

Feel like the “parents” should be put on the Registry as a consequence. They preyed on their own kid’s suffering for monetary gain.
This episode was based on the late Michael Jackson and the story behind it was that Mr. Tripley who is a toymaker, has frequent visits from children and as a result, he has his own room called the treasure chest. In the end, A mother and her son attempted to blackmail Mr. Tripley by planting evidence which would backfire. But the character's father in the episode, would be in jail indefinitely and the son would be sent to another state with stabler stating, 'we will get him'
I wondered why the guy looked like Michael Jackson
Not too split hairs but it was a Grand Mother and Grand Daughter who tried to blackmail Mr Tripley but it worse as the Grand Mother ws poisoning her Grand Daughter to look like she suffered from leukemia. That ending though where Mr Tripley is having a party to celebrate being cleared of charges surrounded by kids is haunting.
@@MikeMJPMUNCHat least I was on course
Didn't the child in question go to live with relatives in Canada rather than another US state.
@@stellargamer4852you think that guy looks like Michael Jackson.
I would be upset too if my parents accepted hush money from my abuser. His parents are absolutely disgusting, it’s so inhumane what they let the abuser do to their OWN kid.
I really miss this era of SVU with Elliot. They went with some dark but also realistic cases that really packed a emotional punch that the later seasons never really managed to recapture.
Sad how they set their kid up to be abused
Yeah. I mean what kind of parents are they?
Does anybody else want them to revisit this because I do. Especially with JJ and seeing what happened to him. Knowing that he did not need to keep quiet, and that contract was garbage his parents signed just to get money. I would love to see a grown up JJ walk into the Squad as a new detective because SVU were the only people who realized he had a problem and actively tried to help him.
He got to hook up with Rachel Hunter. It's all good!
Not to mention the episode ends with Stabler confident that they'll be able to lock up that creep one day. A nice follow up could be that the father ends up brutally beaten or killed, with a grown up JJ deciding to just kill Billy and his mom since the law is unable to make any progress. But on the "bright side", his little sister ends up becoming a good person (and maybe a mother who is far better than her own).
wow the kid actor is good
I've never watched this show, but it's clear the psychologist was the only one who realised the child was being abused because of how "adult" he was acting. I feel like if a little girl was acting out the same way, the detectives would've figured it out too. This is how sexually abused children act.
See, I felt like the SVU people knew too. That’s why they were pushing for Bellview over juvie
Oh, they picked up on it. But they're detectives, not psychologists. It's not their lane. They did the appropriate thing by referring him to Bellview.
It's absurd that "Billy" didn't end up at Riker's Island because of his wealth, the justice need to be impartial it simply cannot be bought on the expense of Heroes, Legends or Loved Ones.
The case was botched by a woman who was poisoning her granddaughter and faking her abuse. Not to mention the Oslos witness tampering.
This is one of the saddest episodes in my opinion. And the lady who planted "evidence" that basically made the guy walk free so they had no choice but to wait for the next victim. I understand wanting to catch these guys but the other guardian who planted evidence fucked the whole investigation up. Uhg. It saddens me that stuff like this happens too and then look at the system vs the tv. I know there are good and bad cops/detectives but let them do their job theyll find what they need to put these guys away as best they can. The good ones anyway
Wasn't she doing it for the money? Like the Gypsy Rose Blanchard case.
@@LadyBern I honestly don't remember if she did it for the money. I just remember her saying she wanted to catch the guy. But doing that doesn't help anybody. I'll have to rewatch it
@@lucy-louthebeagle4511 I went over the recap. Yeah it combined the MJ Neverland ranch thing and bits of the Blanchard case with the severe Munchausen by proxy or just a scammer. It wasn't that she was doing it to put a sick man in jail she was sick and craved the attention and money they got for being the parent/guardian of a victim.
@LadyBern oh wow. I don't remember that. Definitely going to rewatch it! I do remember even without the lady involved there was mixes of other stuff involved
This episode was such a bummer. Once they get the billionaire guy in custody JJ’s lawyer produces this video of JJ(the kid) recanting the allegation and saying he lied, then he disappears. The Dad refuses to tell the detectives where JJ is and is put in jail under contempt of court. JJ is eventually found in Maine with an uncle but before they can arrest the uncle and get JJ they flee across the border into Canada. Another little girl with cancer claims she was abused by Billy, but it ends up being that her Grandmother had been poisoning her to make it look like she had cancer and forced her to lie about the abuse for money. The grandmother, the little girls only family member, is put in prison and the girl is put in foster care. The end of the episode is especially sick, it ends with Billy throwing a big party at his mansion for all these little kids, and Stabler and Olivia just have to watch as this guy is being hugged by all these kids. It’s such a bummer episode.
So disgusting especially when you realise this actually probably does happen in real life. I hope for the worst for all these sick people.
And possibly worst of all, and as Novak puts it, Billy (the millionaire guy) can now claim false accusations to any child with a legitimate claim of abuse at his hands.
Why would JJ’s lawyer show a video of him recanting his statement?
@@MunroMcLarencuz that lawyer is working for billy the billionaire.
Never let your kids stay at anybody and everybody's house. Friend or no friend, boss or no boss. You'd be surprised how many kids have come out as adults about their parents' friends abusing them sexually, verbally, physically, emotionally, psychologicaly and sometimes all five. How many more kids have to be added to this list before parents get the message? How many?
That’s hardly fair. While yes it’s true that kids are far more likely to be hurt by someone they know than a stranger, not every trusted adult is doing this nor can we keep kids in a bubble. Kids deserve to have sleepovers with friends and spend time with relatives and family friends without mom and dad. The only solution is to teach kids to look for red flags and for parents to also spot red flags and make themselves safe people for kids to confide in.
@@pisces2569no they don't need sleepovers. For what? Why risk it? That's what those parents did and look what happened. Stop putting their lives at risk. You can be happy without sleepovers. Signs don't help

Shouldn't the parents be punished for selling their son out? The law should take all the money and put it in a trust for the son until he was of age.
Can’t punish what you can’t prove. With the witness gone they can’t have a trial. At best they would hold the dad until the kid comes back and the trial can begin but it never happened.
Oh man, no wonder this poor kid is so screwed up🥺 That is just sick.

Great comment thanks for sharing and I’m glad it got better for you
This makes me want to cry. I never experienced this, but it's horrible. No child should go through this. Why can't active pedophiles understand the harm they cause ?
The same reason why terrorists can understand the harm they cause
I knew I was opening a can of
worms when I clicked on this one,
but I do have one answer possibly
theory for these kinds of criminals
if not offenders: It's the one that some
people just don't get a lot of times
they don't care.
As for terrorists for them it's like a
mission, collateral damage, whatever
you want to call it, when you're a
terrorist, they think they're the good
guys for their cause but more often
than not the rules of war aren't black
and white.
I wish I had a better answer but this is just based on what I've seen and heard.
There's a lot of reasons why I can
hardly manage to watch more than
one episode of this show, some of the cases have just hit way too close to home, and my heart just bleeds for the victims. Whether it be domestic or child abuse it doesn't matter to me, on the other hand when you enable or make excuses for abuse that's not good either. work of fiction or not, I swear a lot of these are inspired by real events making them just as disturbing.
I know very well that with domestic violence, no two cases are the same and more often than not there's more to it than it looks I try not to be biased I try not to be a judgmental but sometimes it's harder than others.
I won't put the show down but I don't think this is a show that can be binged I've got a lot of compassion and empathy for domestic violence and abuse victims I can't help it It's just how I am
This is exactly why I never was excited about turning 18. Everyone believes turning 18 is a big deal. No expects a kid to be a school shooter or a harm towards others for no other reason besides the kid being under 18. If you are 17, people don’t see you capable of harming others. If you are 18 or above then they consider the possibility that this person can cause harm.
I don’t give children the benefiting of any doubt just because they are under 18 or elementary school children. There is a strong possibility that someone can be a harm towards others. That is why people often fail to detect school shooters or other type of kids who can cause harm: They don’t think a kid or a kid under 18 is capable of doing so; so they would turn a blind eye.
I have 3 baby cousins and they behave all time and hardly ever cause trouble. Does that mean I will ignore the possibility that they could one day be a threat just because they behave under my watch all the time? No. I prefer to keep an open mind and possibilities open. It’s always those you least expect that can leave you surprised and who you don’t see coming; that why someone being under 18 doesn’t work on me; they are still capable of doing harm. Those under 18 do the crime then they do the time.
So true! So many people ignore this fact and it’s why we are doomed to repeat history.
I've never met anyone who thinks a 17 year old "isn't capable of harming others." Just because the law defines adulthood as 18+, that doesn't mean anyone thinks that people under 18 can't cause harm. Literally no one thinks that. Even under the law, minors are frequently charged as adults if the crime is severe.
@@JJ-yc2svoh really? Tell that to Vaughn. A teenage girl had been posting mixes of herself online and many people are attacking that dumb teen girl for it. Stacey Vaughn in the other hand says that the girl does know any better because she below 18. She said that herself.

What are you even talking about? They obviously DID "look into him" or it never would've been known that he'd done anything.
Everyone knows that children are plenty capable of harming others. Have you never heard the common phrase "kids can be so cruel" ?
Also, don't think I didn't notice that you tried to use an 11 year old as evidence of your claim about 17 year olds. Even if he truly had been overlooked, that wouldn't support the claim you made. Where is your evidence of people thinking that 17 year olds are "incapable of harming others" ?
The fact that juvenile detention centers exist is proof that, as a society, we recognize that children can and do harm others.
When the boy said he couldn't talk because of the contract, i remembered this was the Peter Pan creep episode.
what's terrible is the epsiode ended with the guy getting away with it on a cliffhanger and they NEVER made a follow up epsiode
they had a few episode where i wonder what could happen after the end credit
The parents were the reason the guy got away because they ran away and hid their son who is the only witness to the case I’m guessing they got bribed again. So the trial got dismissed ( I think ).
Cause he was MJ.
“How often do you sleep in the same bed with children?”
Billy: “ALL THE TIME WHATS WRONG WITH THAT!??”
Umm sir…
The fucked up thing is, with the context, it is possible that the parents did not so much care about their sons wellbeing as they wanted him not to to be in a position in which his motivation to talk outweighed his fear of his parents.
As a dad, this makes me writhe.
I wonder what kind of support they have on set for these child actors doing intense scenes like this covering such topics..
No amount of money would keep me from seeing a predator be locked up if it was my child. I know this is just a show, however, I wouldn’t doubt if that hasn’t happened before.
It has. It's based on the Michael Jackson scandals.
Very important that everyone know this! No contract or NDA can be used to cover up a crime or keep someone silent about a crime. If you are aware of a crime that was committed, but signed a privacy contract or NDA, that contract becomes null and void in that regard. You not only have the legal right to speak up without repercussion, but you have a moral obligation to speak up. No one can use a contract to keep a victim quiet. They may try. But they won’t. If it goes to court, there are many victim advocacy groups who ensure victims are represented, aren’t bribed or scared into complacency and keeping quiet, and to prevent pressures being put on them, both emotional, social, and financial. Some perpetrators will try to use contracts to punish someone for speaking up or to try and keep them quiet. “I’ll sue you if you speak up” etc. Just reach out to a victims advocacy group and they can help navigate you through the legal system when NDA’s and privacy contracts are involved and someone is trying to use those to keep people quiet about said crime.
When an airsoft group I played with accused me of stealing money (and had nothing but suspicions), rather than even think of speaking in defense of me, my old man went off on me and ordered me to pretty much accept responsibility for it.
So yeah, what this kid's parents did doesn't surprise me in the slightest. You'd think your own flesh and blood would always stand up for you, but it turns out that even they're capable of betraying you.

More of a sociopath rather than a psychopath. Psychopaths are usually born without a conscious, sociopaths are bred from environments of abuse and neglect.
I don’t think the son is a psychopath, he’s hurting because of the abuse and lashing out.
@@ayameisastar Following that logic then a predator who hurts children is just "lashing out" if he/she was a former victim.
