The ethics of true crime are...often grey to say the least. Pinely has a great video on it. Profiting off of murders and the suffering of victims and their families has always icked me out. I'm glad there were families and survivors and experts in the field there to do talks. I don't think I'd be comfortable going to a "con" all about true crime content. Kudos to you for giving the breakdown!

@Bjorksbackyard 2 года назад

@@ShanaLawson there’s a big difference between unsolved crimes and those that are largely solved but people still rehash for the sake of content and entertainment as if it were any other topic. This is what people are referring to when they take issue with TC content and its fans, it’s the gratuitous enjoyment of hearing about atrocities rather than focusing on genuinely solving the case, and exposing corruption and injustices. Unsolved cases need all the attention they can get, absolutely, but there’s still many crimes that people are making content about purely for entertainment, profit, and to make up theories that can be incredibly disrespectful. The Elisa Lam case is a popular one that people are STILL creating bizarre theories about. Imagine how her family feels. A personal topic is an Australian family that went “missing” on a road trip - I’m not going to say their name because of how insane people have been about it, particularly Americans, but I grew up in their small community and all the videos and tiktoks people have made theorising the family were in the mob, they were abducted by aliens or a satanic cult, they were into human trafficking - these are the cases most people take issue with when it comes to true crime. Not the unsolved ones, but the cases that are still being talked about just for entertainment and money.

@punchdrunkassassin 2 года назад

That Pinely video was great, I also highly recommend it. I used to be into true crime, but ages ago before there were podcasts and all this, so I've been watching some videos here and there over the last little while. But I find the commodification of it is low key icky, especially the ones who do makeup and stuff, and make up cute little catch phrases, while discussing people's most horrific moments of their lives. Like I'm sorry but channels like Bailey Sarien seriously rub me the wrong way, though I know she has a huge fanbase so I probably shouldn't say that out loud. The only one I actually watch now is Coffeehouse Crime because of how respectful and well-researched his videos are, and how much they focus on the victim and their story. He covered a fairly recent case from my country that I knew very well as it started in the same region I lived in, and actually gave a lot of info I didn't even know because at the time it was so sensational. That info highlighted involvement and help from a First Nations community that went totally unnoticed. I respect that kind of reporting on these stories so much more. Anyways thanks for mentioning this, because I really couldn't agree more with your comment!

The time I had to report a serious crime, that affected multiple highschool girls, they told me the best they could do was "talk to the guy." Sherriff Joe Arpaio (a real nasty piece of work, if you feel like looking him up) has only been out of office in that county for five years, which means a lot of the officers that supported him are still holding their positions (and a good number of officers in buckeye did support him).

@Allison1111 2 года назад

I know last year there was a panel about the ethics of true crime with youtubers and family members of victims, they discussed how to make creating and consuming true crime ethical. Then this year there was a panel featuring three family members of victims; Julie Murray, Kelsi German and Sarah Turney (side note I cannot recommend her podcast Voices for Justice enough, she is leading the change of how true crime is viewed and talked about). It was about the navigating the online true crime space as a family member and the comments they get. Julie was actually accosted during the event by a guy who has been harassing her family for years, he has this obsession with her sister's case that goes beyond wanting to help. I think we are seeing a turning point in how true crime is consumed, people seem to be more aware of how talking about these cases should be handled and how it should be watched. I saw a Tiktok that the daughters of the victim Betsy Faria of the "There's something about Pam" show weren't consulted regarding the show.

@Rhaifha 2 года назад

I think it's also a problem of true crime (just like people focussed documentaries really), have gone from things that happened *decades* ago, to things that happened just a few years ago. In the early days true crime cases that were discussed were either solved decades ago, or they had been basically marked as a cold case decades ago. Now cases haven't even gone to trial before it's explored and judged by true crime documentaries. This means you deal with a whole lot more real life people that are being judged in the court of public opinion. Just look at what the internet and media are doing to Amber Heard to see what they do to an imperfect victim.

@thelexicon7294 2 года назад

While it's nice that a con like Crime Con has that ethics component to it, I feel like it should be a WAY more prominent topic of conversation. Until every single podcast, YT channel, etc addresses the ethics of true crime spaces, I suspect things will go on getting worse and worse.

@kristinastone7838 Год назад

I don't know if I'd call that specific phenomenon voyeuristic, but it definitely is opportunistic and exploitative. I've always felt so odd watching/listening to a true crime episode only for them to jarringly say "Now a word from our sponsors!" as if they didn't just describe a brutal attack. I know they've gotta put food on the table, but it got to a point where it felt like the true crime content creators were talking about a made up story and not an actual person who had a whole life outside of the crime(s) that were committed against them. This is a more extreme example, but imagine if someone like Ted Bundy started making and selling merch for his crimes. It wouldn't be acceptable and would certainly be deemed as antisocial behavior. Anyway, those are just my two cents. Sorry for the super long comment, I'm tired and can't articulate things correctly right now.

Tip for remembering names, repeat it back to them and try and use it at least once more in the conversation, it helps stick it better in the brain.

I'm a true crime fan, and this was my first time ever hearing of CrimeCon, and not gonna lie when I first saw the title of this video I was hesitant to watch because I feel like a lot of true crime fans forget that the victims were real human beings and it's hard to think that a convention could handle that fact with respect. But I'm glad to hear that some of the speakers reminded the audience of that, I'm glad that families dealing with open cold cases were able to get their stories out and increase their chances of finding closure and justice. I don't know if I myself would feel comfortable attending a true crime convention, but I'm not going to judge others that do.

Important to Note is that I don’t live in the United States - I have loved watching CSI as a child with my father. This grew to be a small fascination with the occasional true crime documentary or story on some website. I listen to a few RU-vid videos about it eventually. Fast forward to around 2018 and my father gets murdered out of town and the police in that area fail to do a proper investigation, we try to have a the court imprison the suspects that were caught but due to lack of evidence and a technicality they were acquitted. We can’t afford to hire a lawyer ourselves to try and open up the investigation again. Police have blamed us for not following up on them, but we were grieving and handling a surprise funeral. Same goes to the court provided attorneys, mind you. My relationship with true crime has been on & off. I am fine with the forensic side of it but if there are like footage of the court room of transcripts of the court case, I can’t handle it anymore.

@DiddumsMcFlourish 2 года назад

I hope that Daniel is found. It is sad that the family has had to search on their own without law enforcement’s help. I’m glad there are people volunteering to help but the system shouldn’t be so broken they a victim’s family has to search for them. What if that family doesn’t have the resources to search? True crime is so sad not only because of the cases but also the how the cases show how broke our system is.

I had weird feelings going into this video regarding the current status of true crime. But, at the same time, I lived in Buckeye, Arizona since I was a child. My immediate family still lives there, and yet, I never heard about the Daniel Robinson case. That's fucking depressing and I'm glad that there's some sort of light being shed on case.

Dude! I had to do the same with my entertainment consumption. I got into this weird fascination with mukbang videos, couldn’t get enough. Then I noticed all I wanted to stuff stupid amounts of food down my pie-hole. Cut that out and changed my focus to health and fitness channels and I’m down significantly and feeling like a new person! Amazing how we aren’t even aware of how we are messing with our own heads at times. Good on you for recognizing and changing the behavior!

A quick little thing is I’ve been following the delphie(spell check) since around the time they started the FB page and that stuff. It’s a super interesting case and kinda scary and sad. I love true crime I’ve always followed them and the groups their families made many times, it’s something very special(?) idk the correct word. About the cases and certain ppl who speak about them, you learn so much you begin to tell behaviors it’s scary but needed

I understand the fascination with true crime, my mom worked for the forensics department of the local police here in Germany so I grew up hearing a lot about this kind of stuff. Some people treat it like a spectacle though and that's where it gets problematic. You can follow a case without making a big deal about it and dehumanizing the victims.

My mom loved mysteries and some true crime, so I grew up with a fascination with it. I listen to a lot of true crime podcasts (though took a break during the pandemic because....it was a lot) if I didn't have other things going on I would consider going. I went to Vegas for my 30th birthday and was really bummed I didn't have time to see the mob museum, and definitely want to check that out when I go back! Also the old Vegas sign museum!

@bookloveralltheway 2 года назад

I think there's a universal problem with the system and true crime in general. In which there's this allotment of resources to the white/blonde/blue-eyed woman and not that same flow of resources to POC. Everyone should be found, and everyone should get equal attention paid. Gabby and Daniel both deserve to have their cases resolved.

@lisahoshowsky4251 2 года назад

I’m absolutely obsessed with true (murder) crime but I definitely make sure I’m switching it up with other things. I can tell when it’s becoming a real negative to my mental health but I’m sure that’s hard for some. I’m currently going through a phase where I cannot stand listening to young women being victims and I’m avoiding that. I’m still about 50% true crime (not just murders), 40% paranormal, conspiracy, ghost, unexplained, etc, 5% “radio play” and 5% everything else. I know some people find it distasteful but I only listen to people who are very respectful and highlight the victims not just the people who took their lives. All that said, I’d love to go to crime con one day. (Side note: Simon Whistler has a thing where he says don’t post/record your crimes but it’s not Instagram specific)

Regarding your sporadic and situational shyness? Do you have any friends who are chatty? Who strike up conversations with strangers? I say bring them with you, have them make the opening salvo, and you can jump in with your questions/comments as you feel comfortable. Basically I feel like you need a sidekick who is excited about you and believes in you and wants to help fascilitate whatever you want to do. A golden retriever in human form.

@gosiadawida Год назад

There was a similar situation to the one you mentioned with Daniel and Gabby in the UK Dan Nolan was a 14 year old who went missing after a night out fishing with friends, another 14 year old girl (I don't remember her name I learned about it 4 years ago) also went missing around the same time and her case got a lot of media attention and Dan's got barely any. There's a play about Dan that was made using statements from his family and friends.

@alexlemaire8513 11 месяцев назад

the "you're wrong about" podcast did an episode called true crime with emma Barquist who was actually the victim of a random attack. she talks about how she was in therapy to try and help how paranoid of going outside and stuff her ptsd made her but then she would have true crime content making people act the same and see it as normal i guess. it's quite interesting. especially how recently true crime has been way too casual about how they treat the subjects and how disrespectful it is to victims families who can see it. its a weird balance to strike since we've always been obsessed with this kind of stuff as humans but also try and be better about it

@tamikens 2 года назад

True crime is a very weird one for me because, unlike a lot of people, I grew up around it. In the way that my mother worked in law enforcement for the 1st 20 years of my life and so I have a weird desensitized relationship with it. On top of that some of our closest family friends were morticians and forensic examiners and so on. It wasn't uncommon for my mother to bring up very violent and graphic cases that were going on as a type of cautionary tale to me and my siblings growing up, so I would 100% go to a convention like this. All in all, the TC community is weird and needs some stuff to change, but I am the wrong person to determine what needs to change since I have a very different concept of what is acceptable to discuss and how it's discussed because of my childhood with a law enforcement mother.
