Georgia Man Sentenced for Killing Best Friend: Scare Actor Murder Sentencing Recap 

#CourtTV - Did the judge get it right?

Condolences to the Davis family. Aaron was an amazing person, and was always good to me as a friend. Rest in peace, Aaron.

Definitely killed his buddy cuz victim wanted to go see his gf and the jealousy of dude who was prolly drunk n confessed his love and was denied

I like that the judge asked the victim's family questions. They all had written lovely statements, but when they had to say something that they hadn't prepared, I felt that as a listener, I could feel their love for the person even more, and get to know the victim even better.

I’m wondering if there is a “sexuality” issue involved….

Only 12 months for dismembering his body?!?!! 🤔🤔 Crazy, truly crazy 😳😳😳😳

All this time they kept saying there was no explanation and nobody knew why he did it, but then at 1:23:00, she explains everything! Why do they keep saying that no one knows why he did it and it is just a mystery?

Brandon Risner thrill killed his best friend, claiming it was an uncontrollable urge. Wow! That’s scary! RIP bro, my sympathy to his friends and family.

Samuel Jackson may have a point. Or maybe the killer wanted the victim and he denied him

Why is every crazy murder story about Mormons. I think it’s also crazy that the murder victim’s mom is saying her son never drank before and was forced to drink by his murderer.

Tampering with body parts -12 months but stealing a vehicle 10 years. 😮

Oh ffs. What is wrong with mother of the defendant. Talking about poor Brandon as if he’s the one lying in the ground.

Disemboweled him too?? God damn that’s evil

his mother is delusional

These two young men were gay, Arin was on his way to see his future wife Ann, Brandon was extremly jealous his lover was leaving him. Please tell the whole story the small intestine was removed from Arins body and never found. Evidence which will tell more of the love affair between the 2 men. Cell phone never found which would contain lots more evidence by texts etc. This was a jealous love triangel rage, murder 20 stabs to the body very personal. I feel so sad for the family and friends of the Davis family. More to the story don't blame mental illness may or may not be involved. Brandon tried to cover up thier relationship between Arin and Brandon....watching Brandon walk out the court room told me a bunch watch his gait....yes the judge got it right Brandon's mom giving excuses as of mental illness if this was the case where are the professionals giving thier professional opinion. Mom wake up do your research, and think about the situation. Hopefully, one day, your son will tell you the truth of the relationship. Most family members know why maybe not spoken but now a days life styles are pretty easily figured out. Which is good or bad , no way Brandin will ever get out ever. Blaming pot alcohol etc is so wrong in this case ....😢

👩🏽‍💻Bravo to judge for asking what kind of a person the victim was/is.

Why do these ppl always go out & buy cleaning supplies after….like they don’t already have any at home? This is truly such a tragic story!

Some people just shouldn’t take edibles, man.

Brandon's mother asking the judicial system if one horrific mistake defines a person...I mean in the eyes of the law, yes mam. For you as a mom no, but for the victim and victim's family justice is for someone to pay for murder by losing their freedom most likely forever. If her son had been the one murdererd she would not be cutting any slacks either.

People are increasingly losing touch with reality.

Another crazy mormon,

A friend zone gone bad

I'm surprised this little old town ROME GA (which is where I'm from & currently live) is actually here on court TV! Im glad y'all posted this honestly, bc even tho I live her & have heard about this case a little, I didn't know ALOT of the details y'all covered!'

SO SO SAD! No words except God Bless him and watch over his family.

His mother talks like a child!!!

Dude could not handle his feelings of attraction. So sad.

What a beautiful love story with a tragic ending. 😢

My theory is that one or both of them was closeted gay/bisexual...something triggered between them…

What a monster

Okay, all else aside, did y’all seriously say that prison can treat mental health difficulties??? They can’t even treat physical health difficulties- you think he’s going to even get antipsychotic meds regularly, for his schizoaffective disorder (which is the only mental health challenge mentioned, which could possibly actually be a mitigating factor, given that OCD, Tourette’s and any kind of autism all make it LESS likely to physically harm, let alone kill, other people; NOT more. Many many people have intrusive thoughts; they are far more likely to harm themselves than to harm another. I myself am autistic and I get upset when I have to kill a bug (we live in FL, and you have to kill any indoor bugs if you see one, or they pretty much take over). Many of us (autistic people) actually, contrary to popular belief, has a surplus, not a lack, of empathy (which can cause some of us to seem more aloof, as a self-protective tactic, bc we not only have to feel all of our own feelings, but also, the feelings of those around us, whether we want to, or whether we don’t. I don’t like people spreading misinformation, so I wanted to weigh in. I think it’s extremely misleading to suggest that prison is able to provide any kind of decent health care to inmates. That only takes 5 minutes of researching reputable sources, to more than easily disprove. I still think this man belongs in prison, but he will absolutely be a danger to other inmates, if unmedicated IMO. So I hope that this risk will be reduced or mitigated, for the inmates around him. Just be honest though, please, and accurate.

I really admire the father and other loved ones to speak about the victim. They are so strong. This is one of the highest betrayals a person can endure. The killer is a deeply troubled person, sick in the head.

One of the Daybell boys that lied to police and on the stand was a “Scare Actor” at a haunted house in Idaho.

He should have gotten life without parole

I cannot heard his mom talk that her perfect son !!!

I don’t think I’ve seen anyone GAIN weight in jail..

Sounds like schizophrenia

I was kinda shocked when the reporter suggested there was more to there relationship,i hadnt even thought about that,but it does make sense 🤔

Leniency is rampart. He should never be released back into society.

im always amazed how fat everyone gets in jail ...can barely recognize him

Dad has a nerve crying for his killer son instead of lamenting his hideous acts.

Why on earth was Brandon ever left alone with anyone, knowing full well of his behaviors, his Parents should've said No you will never be alone with someone 🤔 Prayers for the family & friends RIP Aaron Davis

I think he knew what doing!!!

As someone that has given a victims impact statement i think its inappropriate for a judge to interrupt. Wait until the end and ask as many questions as you'd like. Please let the victims get through the hardest statement they will ever have to read. My condolences to everyone hurt by this senseless crime.

At least they had some diagnoses. Need more info as to steps they took, but they did act. Crumbleys did ZIP!

Her statement is full of crap

Too many mental health excuses. Wow. Every case is either dismissed due to mental health or a silly sentence for murder. Our world is upside down.

Since police can get transcripts of texts even without a physical phone, I wonder why they didn't in this case. Or maybe they have since this sentencing.

Best friend! Wow! 😢😢😢

Doesn't seem to have Tourettes now

They are weird

This Lady that wants him to stay in there forever with no chance of getting out? Well I wonder if it was her beloved son.

why he kill his bestfriend before this one go to see his girlfriend that s this point who is strange ?

Seems to me that this Guy Not only had Issues already but was seriously Jealous of his Friends Family and their Close Relationship even though they Welcomed him into their Home as if he was another Son. My mum always treated our friends as part of the Family and they even called her Mum but they were all great friends that didn't have a hidden agenda of which this Guy did. Heartbreaking as you can Never truly know in today's world who we let in.

Mormons living in another reality

Mother is the same as the dad. A brutal killer is sitting there. Boo hoo is some nerve. Apologize instead of playing the victim card.

The gf speech is nauseating. Mute her lol

Why!!!?

They just look deranged to me

The black dude should keep his thoughts to himself. What an awful, hateful thing to say about the victim possibly being the killer's undercover lover. Shame on him! That really pisses me off!

DOES THIS DEMON KNOW GARTH DAYBELL...HAUNTED HOUSE REXBURG

Please don't post your bogus theories. It's incredibly hurtful for friends and family members

He not psycho!!!

I zoomed in and watched the defendants facial expressions while the judge was talking but hadn't delivered the sentence yet. There was a smidge of hope on his face.. I saw that hope melt away after the hmjudge wa done. God placed us here to learn unconditional love. And to overcome hatred and revenge and any act of harm to another. No matter what they did. We're a century away from figuring out how to do that. The first riddle is what do you do when someone does what the defendant did. You can't just say , I love you unconditionally and send them home. We've got to have law and order. How can we maintain that and at the same time not be so vengeful when someone commits a hanous crime. God didn't make it easy.

He gained weight

Unlike many other killers, it seems like this guy feels remorse.

He not crazy !!!

I love how they asked for mercy and therapy…only for a white man (murderer) in America.

Wonder why people f didn’t like him !! He looks weird!!!

I love crime channels, is that just me ? Or a lot Mormons committed horrendous crimes ?

I thought the same thing, was he in love with him and he advanced himself that night ???

They were lovers

Interesting...

Brandon Risner should get a date with Old Sparky

ADEROL?

They was butt buddies

RIP brother I can definitely tell that he was an awesome humble meek guy so sad that the one person he trusted the most would do him this way in this lifetime it seems whenever you’re a real friend and you love hard it can be very dangerous be safe ppl God bless the family and friends of this young man and God bless America!

The world needs Jesus without him there is nothing we can do AMEN

This [zero evidence] doofus..19:28

I don't know anything about religious missionaries, but are these young people, forced, or coerced into these missions? In order to reach a new self-worthy life "level," "status?" Or is it totally voluntary?

This is the second case recently linked to the prophesies and the church of jesus christ later days saints

It was Deeper he had deep feelings you can tell was moving on in his life and he was no part of it he had a girlfriend perhaps he had a under cover love for him but the young man did not feel the same way it’s so obvious look how many ty he stab him anger

Ah ha. BK syndrome. Feeling detached. Looking from the outside in. Hmmmm.

The judge is so old he can barely speak

MARIE 💯💯💯💯💯💯

The judge is senile

I THINK THAT EVERYONE SHOULD JUST LOVE JESUS! LESS RELIGION!!

Why not a psychiatrist evaluation over a period of months.....a report from a psychologist over 30 hrs of reading his profile is overcharged BS....his parents should have cared more.....

🫀🫁🔪 @58:00 ~ You should not say “he had a huge heart“ when he dismembered his friend and they still haven’t recovered some of his organs. Understandable, but a bad choice of words.
