He's a sociopath... Look at him... Clueless! He needs to be evaluated seriously. He slashed her tires for sure. To imagine he's that angry that she didn't date his friend that he slashed her tires and did this prank call... What a tool!
I think it may be a cultural issue. I’ve lived in India as an expat and men there would frequently talk about stalking women…as though that were the most romantic thing they can do for women!
@@nondescriptnyc I would think that, but he' appeares to have been in the states for a while. They went to high school together, but the red flag for me is that he doesn't internalize anything. "I should have learned... It was a mistake... I did it to other people". Very external... Vs '... "I feel bad... It was never my intentions" etc The creepy part is how pissed he got again when her "roommates said she stayed home all day, day drinking". Why are you that invested in her to the point that what she does out of your presence bothers you so much? There is something off about him for real.
The defendant turned what would have been a $500 judgment into $3K. His lack of remorse was even more disturbing than the silly prank. He couldn't even muster up a semblance of remorse in court. Judge nailed it. He is a very disturbed young man!
This guy is literally crazy. He went out of his way to develop a computerized recording, think up the scariest messages, and send it to her and other people’s phones. I’m certain someone like him has done other harmful things beyond “prank calls” because that behavior doesn’t come out of no where. It’s thoughtful and strategic.
Yeah, and it’s even crazier that he’s grown and behaving like this. I haven’t pranked called anyone since I was like 13? 14? It’s more than immature to do a prank call that extreme as well. It’s just a flat out threat.
@@Only1Dizzleit’s letting the phone call get to her and not letting her know that it was him that was the bullying. Getting a call like that at 2:00 am is disturbing. He should’ve fessed up the next morning instead he kept blaming her for her reaction to his “prank call”. You and him both are narcissists who refuse to blame themselves for their actions.
The defendant is the creepiest incel type of dude. And the man-on-the-street Harvey spoke to who dismissed it as merely a prank is the worst type of a-hole. Makes excuses and minimizes this type of behavior.
Men get attacked, assaulted, raped and murdered too. There was just a vague statement on the call, no direct threat of any kind. Most of the time police won't do anything even with a DIRECT threat of violence, it's the victim's job to get a restraining order
@@AndukeMTGEDH I completely agree that happens to men as well. Women, girls, and people that are transgender are at much higher risks of being attacked. 1 in 3 women are the victims of sexual assault or violence in the United States, though experts believe the real number is much higher. Only 1% of rapes are successfully prosecuted. Women go out of their way, each and every day, to try to keep themselves safe, from how they hold their car keys, to where they park. This type of threat is seriously terrifying to women, girls, and/or people that are transgender. One can only get a restraining order if one can prove who sent the message. Prior to ascertaining the offender, there is really nothing a victim can do.
@@AndukeMTGEDH While men can be victimized by women, they are more likely to be victimized by other men. Women are more likely to be victims by men. She had very right to have this fear.
@@Only1Dizzle IF(!) the defendant ever finds a moral compass, maybe he could share it with you. ‘Cause your comment shows your lack of any morality all too well!
Especially as adults! When I was a kid I thought prank phone calls were kinda funny but like harmless ones that were more so just annoying. But this?! THIS IS WILD! And as a grown man?! Sad
"I'm sorry for making a prank call" smirking... Not "I'm sorry for scaring you" "I'm sorry I put you through that" "I'm sorry I didn't own up to it" "I won't be making those calls again" This is the kind of guy that upskirts a girl and posts it, then says it's a joke. He needs to be kept an eye on.
I'd be willing to bet that this guy probably comes from money and has very rarely (if ever) been told no or been held accountable in his life. He pulled these pranks because he just knew he'd get away with them. As for his "apology," it was obviously insincere, and he wanted the girl to know it.
He is NOT remorseful at all. Just trying to save face cause he's been outted. Smh. His face when hearing the verdict was priceless and he obviously had no clue where he was going to get $3,000 to pay her. Serves him right.
@@saramichele7366 really? I didn't know. Well that's ridiculous. What's the point then? Whoever wins gets compensated and the other party gets to walk scot-free. I've been watching this show for almost 10 years and never knew that. Very disappointed 😅
@@KingdomWoman1345 I was disappointed too when I found out awhile back. I feel like some of these defendants deserve to have to pay out of their own pocket. But on the other hand, who knows how long it could take for the plaintiff to receive the money? Most courts offer payment plans and stuff so it could easily take months or even years until they're paid off. At least this way, she gets paid right away. Thinking about it that way definitely helps ease some of the disappointment lol
From this defendant’s sociopathic mind: “I’ve been told I was wrong; I’ve been informed that the proper protocol is to apologize; according to someone in authority, I should feel bad about this, so I guess I’ve no choice but to go along. Oh, but she lied about other things, and went out drinking” (as though that has any relevance whatsoever). Kid is seriously creepy!
Agreed!! TOTAL narcissist and probably a sociopath as well. Reminds me of someone who kills his whole family and then can't reconcile why his extended family won't support him. Or like a kid who tortures animals for fun.
I love when the defendant wants to be referred to by their first name only..don't they realize that everyone watches these shows and will recognize them..LOL
I watch so many true crime docs and honestly, this guy gives so many vibes similar to those offenders. Creepy, no remorse, doesn’t feel like he did anything wrong, it’s a joke to him.
I do, too, and totally agree that that’s the exact vibe I got immediately from the creep. He’s like those serial killers who have no empathy nor remorse.
Unfortunately, he misses the point. He's very immature! The judge clearly stated she could not make him pay for the classes but he would pay for the suffering he caused her. First thing he says outside the courtroom is the judge was unfair and that he shouldn't pay for her classes. He heard nothing said to him and he only apologized because he was asked to.
And an apology given under pressure, isn't really an apology anyway. If he didn't do it on his own, it's pointless to pressure him to do it.... as you can see.
His apologies were pathetic. 'sorry I made a prank call'. Then he just leans back and says 'sorry' to her after the case. Judge was right, there is something wrong with this idiot.
You guys are weak as hell. That call was so fake. It was a robot. You really believe she was really messed up about that call????? Yeah right. ONLY a fool. These fake apps have been around for years and somehow she has been kept out of the loop? Yeah right.
@@tawtam1 you said everyone agreeing with the plaintiff was weak as hell. Purely logically, that means you must consider yourself tougher. Apparently they don't teach critical thinking in internet tough guy school
The fact that people in the comments are telling the plantiff how she should feel is INSANE. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Defendant got what he deserved.
There was no direct threat. She is in more danger daily when she drives down the road. You can feel anyway you want about anything, that is your choice
I honestly agree, that man you can tell from his emotions, blank expression and pathetic “apology” he needs help and does not feel bad. Please disregard my message to that bot. He clearly does not understand the difference between a threat and a prank
You can tell he was never raised to be accountable for his actions. He could verbally “point the finger” at the plaintiff but as soon as Harvey made him talk about what he did wrong, he could barely get his words together. 🤨🤨
Hello Danielle how are you doing? I was going through some comments here when I stumbled on your profile, I got caught by that wonderful smile and couldn't just pass you by without saying hi 😊
Problem is, these young block-head guys don’t realize or understand how scary it can be to be a young woman living in a city. So what may be a “prank” could very well be seen as a real threat to a young woman.
@@broeheemed32 smh, if you don't know the difference in 2022, you don't have a right to talk. Get more educated on the increased amounts of harassment, violence, sexual assault, stalking cases, murder cases, against women in cities, and even in rural areas, then please voice your opinion. Totes respect opinions, but be educated before you flaunt your closeted misogyny.
@@forensick9527 There's nothing closeted about my misogyny. Can you say the same about your misandry? I'll tell you what, if a woman doesn't want to be "harassed", they can try putting their big fake cans back in their top and start dressing less like a budget trollop. Women invite it, and to tell the truth..... they'd be miserable if they DIDN'T get the attention. Tell the truth.
@@forensick9527 So tired of women who demand equality until something gets to be too "hard." Then they put on the fragile damsel routine. Men drop dead of heart attacks far more than women, die far more from suicide, fall victim to violence far more than women, but that shouldn't give them special rights. If it pleases you to call me a "misogynist" because I disagree with you, go right ahead.
"I'm sorry I made a prank call" That's right! He's not sorry he scared her and her family or disturbed her family's life... just sorry for himself because HE made a mistake...
@@ruthdeckman9781 I agree. The only reason he said "sorry" was because he was prompted to do it. He was only sorry that he made the prank call, because it got him into a lot of trouble, not because he frightened her and her family so much. That wasn't actually an apology, imo. I expect he'll do that kind of thing again, if he thinks he can do it without getting caught.
I love how the judge is like "I'm not going to award you that" (for the class) then he's like "her house mate says she's not" afraid; and suddenly he's paying for the class. Not only does he not get it at a human level, he doesn't seem to get it at a practical level either, hopefully if he can't be a human being, maybe he can make the logical step to at least not do stupid things.
The plaintiff most likely never wanted to communicate with him after because he creeped her tf out! That’s really a stalker type thing to do honestly. His eyes just don’t look right to me
I recently received two calls from someone calling me racist names. You never know if that person knows where you live or is trying to hurt you and your family. You end up even more worried when you have children. People like that deserve prison time. How else is that person going to learn?
"who's Anthony?" -eyes enlarge - hard blink -gasp for air - weight shift. Classic signs of fear. Her not dating Anthony was what motivated him to do all this stuff. When the judge said his name, you saw him panic. 😱
Hello Emily how are you doing? I was going through some comments here when I stumbled on your profile, I got caught by that wonderful smile and couldn't just pass you by without saying hi 😊
The defendant is really a piece of work. He thought it was "funny" ?. I wish that plaintiff had a bigger, older brother to give the defendant a good lesson.
That was NOT a prank call, that was a threatening call with intent to hurt them, I think he should do jail time or be in a psych ward, because he is heading towards a very dark path and soon his 'threats' won't satisfy his needs and they will turn into reality...
@@tawtam1 Just because he said they told him not to talk to her doesn't mean it's true. After all, the police allowed her to confront him. He could also have written her a letter. The fact is, he was too much of a coward to own up to his behaviour and take responsibility. He also shows a complete lack of empathy. Disgusting.
@@peterlee584 So, we discount everything he says. We don't know that everything she says is true either now do we. She may have dropped out of class because she was flunking class and not doing well. She may have escalated this so she could get some money. But, the most clear thing that is distrusting to me is the ignorance of the people like yourself posting. Those robot prank apps have been around for a long time. And it is so blatantly obvious it was fake from the start. If you have a slight of an thought that she has some inelegance has been around and not sheltered all her life, common sense would set in. There are allot of scenarios that suggest why he didn't write a letter. Maybe, he had heard that day or the next that she was trying to get some money out of this situation from her roommates. Which by the way, the judge didn't even let him explain that whole thing to her. In goes into her credibility. And just maybe that's why he has a lack of empathy. I wouldn't if I realized just after the prank that she was trying to make a bigger deal out of it than it was. Furthermore, I don't believe her for the facts I already mentioned. Can you honestly tell me that call was believable? lolololololol. My kid could see that was a fake call. So, she would get so upset to call the police and drop out of school over a call she knew was fake? Please. BS.
@@tawtam1 You really arr ignorant, aren't you?? It has nothing to do about whether or mot it was a Robot Voice or not. The mere fact that he would even make that kind of threatening phone call to someone eho's supposed to be his friend shows him to mrntslly disturbed. He has no empathy or remorse for the trauma he caused her or her fsmily. He's a textbook dociopath. Mind you, so are you, probably, judging by your comments. Those types of pranks are not funny and csn cause a lot of damage to people's lives. Particularly, if they're sensitive or suffer ftom anxiety. In mu mind, the defendant got off easy. He should thsnk God, yhat he didn't get arrested Perhaps, he should have been. It might teach him a lesson.
He's the kind of person who would get innocent people swatted out of spite and/or amusement. That blood is on his hands if that ever happened. He has to understand that his pranks can and will go too far.
He says in the interview at the end that the judge was wrong for making him pay the girl back for dropping a class. He completely missed the whole verdict that he is ordered to pay the girl for PAIN AND SUFFERING. Dude is a selfish prick with no remorse and needs to get help.
"shouldn't get compensated for her class because she wasn't doing well in it" This guy is a moron with no morality but also has no intelligence. She got pain and suffering not lost tuition. Also, every time he is asked a question he deflects to her and what she did not his own actions. This person is absolutely psychotic. Just look how emotionless he seems. I doubt she has seen the end of him. Hopefully he is not in love with her. She is a beautiful young woman who seems like a decent person.
Clearly anyone who says she shouldn't have been scared doesn't know what it's like to be stalked, and no one who has the intention to harm, scare, or stalk someone will use their real voice if they can help it. After being in certain scenarios that have changed my perspective, I would definitely be terrified. 3,000 is a lot, but he didn't receive any other punishment, so, this is as good as it gets. You can't just go scaring girls like that, it's not the 70s anymore, and shit like this isn't funny. You gotta learn your lessons, and face the consequences if you're not going to apologize.
Agreed. I was cyberstalked for hours a day by someone with narcissistic personality disorder online for a month and it was quite frightening..I just can't believe that I am interesting to stalk online for hours.
you're right. A woman of the 70's would have laughed at such a juvenile phone call. Now, we're all too soft. "I am woman. Hear me roar (just don't make any scary phone calls, cause I'm just a girl)."
@@foxwithtubesox1075 There's a difference between being "soft' as you put it and calling someone to account for their moronic and disgusting behaviour Violence against women is a major issue, not only in the U.S, but also in other countriies. It''s your type of "Boys will be boys" attitude that enables people like the defendant and encourages them to continue this ridiculous behaviour.
@@peterlee584 I'm not getting the reference to the 70s. Are you saying that if someone called and left an ominous and threatening anonymous message for someone, a woman in the 70s wouldn't be terrified? I think most people (not just women) would be frightened to get a message like this.
It’s weird to want to scare people in a way that terrifies them! Especially when mass shootings are random acts of violence occur frequently! He’s a monster in the making 🤬
There are sick people out there, and not knowing who it might be would be unsettling. Surprised Judge M gave the full judgement, thought she would only do lost wages and pain and suffering. Dude does need to take responsibility for his actions, not make excuses. I didn't see that he was genuine in saying he was sorry..no remorse.
You fell for that garbage. He didn't feel remorseful when she sued him for classes she didn't attend. Are you really that gullible??? I could tell the call was fake before the first sentence ended. That was obvious. That girl wanted a payday and that stupid A judge gave it to her. She was so scared....I don't believe it at all. Why didn't the judge aske him if he had any letters from her roommates that she hardly went to class ect...??? That would go to her credibility. But instead she wanted to make a point without asking for that. TV for you. They pay all that money anyway. Otherwise they wouldn't fly out from everywhere to have their case there.
@@tawtam1 Regarding getting paid for class was questionable..I don't know how I would of reacted getting that call..plus she had tires slashed prior. But she did call the police and followed their direction. How you can read someone's mind, heart is beyond me, in a few seconds.
I am 58 years old and due to a very violent and abusive childhood and young adulthood, I am very easily startled. As a small child it was nothing for violent fights to break out in the middle of the night and I would be yanked from my bed not knowing if I was going to be molested-again, beaten or worse. Calls in the middle of the night absolutely terrify me. Just the phone ringing would rip me from my sleep and my heart would be pounding, and if it was a “prank”, it would leave me in fear for some time. Now I have my ringer set to turn off at a certain time and come back on in the morning at a certain time. I take this very serious and this guy with his dead eyes and empty soul should have been charged and convicted for this. jmo
I dont understand what this has to do with you though. And it honestly sounds inorganic the way you bought this story about you when the defendant never talked about being scared because they had past trauma. This feels like one of those comments so people can pat you on the back and call you a brave person. A person who went though abuse is not going to talk about it so openly because its painful and somewhat stigmatizing also. They only confide such abuse to those very close to them that they trust.
That judge entered the court with issues even want the guy to get kicked out of school for one prank call and his entire life is to be ruined for it kmt tf
I know this is a rerun but I watched it again because this is really important the day and age we are living in right now you can't Overlook anything especially a call like that because you never know if it's someone playing around or a psychopath who's stalking you this young man should have faced legal consequences not just monetary clearly he has no remorse and it wouldn't surprise me in the least to hear he's still doing this to ppl
it could be someone like the Idaho killer... when I was 25 years old I rented a small apartment alone, I was living there for 3 weeks ...woke up and made my breakfast, I noticed there was something wrong with the window's mosquito net was missing ! I looked outside and it was on the ground, I saw several big finger and hand prints on the window. I called the police, they took the finger prints with a black powder. I didn't know at that time but there was a rapist in my neighbourhood, he was caught 4 months later. I was lucky because he was unable to open my windows.
The guy with the hat in the outside audience should get pranked like 10 times. Then his kids, for example, should get pranked like the plaintiff did, and let’s see how ok he thinks it is.
I like how the blonde girl in the background was so happy and screamed “yes!” when he was ordered to pay for pain and suffering. I think that some men truly underestimate how unsafe it is being a woman at times
That there is a psychopath stare from the defendant. I'm not surprised if he, in the near future, surreptitiously slashes JM's car tires and and later on makes a series of threatening, if not obscene, phonecalls.
She should have pursued more. She could have pushed for criminal charges and reached out to school. She would have been given more money for the classes had she done so. Furthermore, she didn't know that there were more people involved. Had she pushed for more, then those names/friends would have come forward. I also think there is more to the story. Too bad she didn't want to tell her complete story.
I'm not even mad about the prank call. Kids will be dumb, it was still dumb and kinda mean. But The fact that he didn't come clean right away is what make him an ah. Like bro, come clean.
I've had my ex leave me countless voice messages and texts threatening my life and all the police did (with the vm and texts) is take a report. All my ex had to say was "it wasn't me" and case closed
He does not get it. That is not a prank call and not a joke. He has to grow up and get a job, or two or three. He obviously has too much time in his hands.
i’m not a doctor, BUT he really seems to not understand what he did and that is a symptom of antisocial personality disorder (not diagnosing him by any means) but let’s say he did have something like that, to call him sick in a demeaning manner is not a way to encourage someone to get help…
Something is wrong with the defendant; he needs evaluation. A message like this would cause a massive episode w: my PTSD - l would be unable to function
I feel like it went a bit overboard and taken to far. $3,000 for being scared? Come on now. I work in a wholesale warehouse and I've had people threaten me directly to my face. Guess I should stay home because I'm scurred.
That call was damn scary!!! And being a woman I have had to hear my share of bs calls. I remember getting scared by a call late night by some guy who kept laughing at the other end and asking if I "remembered him" ... still distinctly remember the chill I felt. I can only imagine how this girl felt. Nowadays I do not pick up any calls from unknown entities. Just ask them to first send me a message giving their identity and when they refuse to do that I just block and report them. No exceptions. Thank God for smartphones. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
The judge was totally right when she said that there was something wrong with the defendent. This guy just doesn't seem to care about the fear that he caused the plaintiff & her family with his little prank. All you have to do is read the paper,or watch the news, & it's pretty obvious that there is a lot of sick & dangerous people out there ,who are capable of doing just about anything! You need to grow up and get some help like the judge was saying . I think besides the $3000.00 judgement that he also should have been expelled from the school. It would have been completely justified.
I'm sorry but I don't think this is a huge deal. They didn't threaten death or anything. I've done pranks like this and have had MANY of these type of pranks done to me. This plantiff could never survive in my house hold.
Hello Jaime how are you doing? I was going through some comments here when I stumbled on your profile, I got caught by that wonderful smile and couldn't just pass you by without saying hi 😊
JM is more UPSET than the plaintiff, she was so over the top. I do not feel like the plaintiff should have receive a judgement for 3K. The defendant is immature.
He should be prosecuted! He's really creepy, and he's done a lot more than prank phone calls! I bet he looks into people's windows, follows them home, and has been doing crap like this for years! It starts when they're young. This creep has a "flat affect" no emotion, he speaks in a monotone, he takes NO RESPONSIBILITY!
I think that she blew that computerized phone call way out of proportion. My question is what did she do that she got hella spooked by that call. When she found out that it was her so called close friend she should not be saying that he's bullying her. I don't know something is not right...there's some info was left out of that story.
Exactly. Her tires were slashed before this too? Even the judge said that had to be personal… She pissed someone off or something. $3k for Pain and suffering?! Give me a break. By the way she looks like a day drinker…
Agreed. He did say he was ashamed & sorry he did it. And JM said the police report indicated that he was terrified & sorry, when they approached him. He even said the friend (Anthony) was mad at him & told him it was a bad idea. He was sure to clear Anthony's name. I do think he understands it was very poor judgement to do what he did. I think JM went too far in telling him he is sick & needs counselling.
@@RobertRoach808 she had the audacity to say no to a man, who slashed her tires and terrorized her with a prank call through a friend. Smdh men need to grow up.
No.. rejecting a man is scary enough. Men murder women for rejection enough to stalk and kill them. Do you ever watch true crime? There are HUNDREDS of cases just in the news daily of this happening.
