Disturbing

Many of these stories were disturbing and sad. IF is difficulty to think that even children have to live through things like this.

NOT for the faint of heart

An inside look into the true crimes of some horrific crimes with details and actual footage from real crime scenes of people involved. Some are difficult to understand but others are bone chilling as you hear in the killers/rapists (or what have you depending on the case)own words what happened or even a massacre while happening.

I kept hearing comments like this doesn't happen, community gripped by fear, not equipped to handle this sort of event, had to change our laws because of this, couldn't do anything but hide because help was over an hour away so people those that knew what was happening and could get away tried to hide, we were no match, etc......

1st, I don't know how the law enforcement agencies exactly work there as I do not reside there. 2nd, our crime rate is rampant and crimes atrocious so I am not saying our system is any better. What I am saying is I don't understand how the officers are expected to handle some of these situations without training and a firearm. I don't care for guns myself but do believe there is a time and place and in certain situations they save lives instead of taking them. As you listen, you will hear one story in particular of a man shooting ANYONE in his path! Neighbors, children, couples out for exercise, animals, a lady in her own home in a wheelchair and others..... all while the police were there. 😪 This carnage didn't need to happen in my eyes.

It was an amazing eye opener I believe for many which I feel is important. Often people live in denial and that the world is all good and nothing will ever happen and let their guard down when in fact it could be lingering right in your very neighborhood if you don't pay attention.

Recommended 👍
