@@latashaphillips9657 Why do you think "Jimmy" is Not "Worthy" of Your prayers? If "ANYONE" is in "NEED" of "EVERYONE'S" Prayers it's "Jimmy"!!! So Let's Pray For Both Jimmy AND His Brother!!! 🙏♥️🙏
Look at the smile when he said Jimmy did graduate from high school. He really is very proud of him. Despite having a rough childhood, he reached his goal. He really loves his brother, really sad that Jimmy couldn't get help before it was too late.
@@loribrogdon7842 he isn't on death row he didn't get the needle or rope . This was the penalty phase after he was found guilty. The jury had 2 choices life in prison or death
@@BurtBowers I think what Helen was saying was he showed his brother unconditional love. In no way did Helen say he was innocent or didnt deserve to go to prison but the brother was a great character witness in explaining who his brother was. Jimmy committed a heinous murder and I think his brother is just trying to save his life. Stop putting words into people mouths and try a little empathy. She was just stating she thought the brother was a good witness. Nothing more nothing less. Jeez.
@@BurtBowers Don't be a knob!! Jimmy might have went another road, thats what I take from this!! Jimmy was child like, that piece, of shit is the MOST guilty, but Jimmy was a pawn again!!
To destroy a country you have to rot it from within --- starting with the decimation of the family unit. The older generation will be gone soon enough so it is the children's minds that have to be rendered useless against your power. They must grow up without focus and without direction - asea with no support or hope. Number one: Vilify and remove decent responsible patriarchal support! Separate the fathers from their children. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bX3EZCVj2XA.html
Jimmy is guilty of a horrible, awful crime but my heart breaks for his upbringing. I'm not in any way excusing anything he did; just saying it's also sad the things his brother testified about.
I feel that too, but the thing that threw me for a Loop was when he was asked what year his mother committed suicide and he said he wasn't sure but he had the date tattooed on his arm!!??!? How do you have a "specific" date tatooed on your arm of your mother's suicide and you don't know what it is??? If he's lying about That, what about all the other stuff about their horrible childhood is he Lying about!!! That's right up there with the WORST lie I've ever heard come out of someone's mouth!!! Seriously!!!
@@FLo-jc7ig he probably got the tattoo right when his mom died. But considering how horrible the mother was, he probably honestly forgot because of the relationship he had with his mother. He couldn't lie about Suicide, you can't just go on the stand and say your mom committed suicide and think there is no way you can look up the information on her death. Every state coroner has information on how people died. He was 100% being honest, if you say otherwise you need to digest the situation and the facts differently.
Yes the upbringing starts at home and if the parents that how life brings you're child or children upbringing starts with the nationality of the United States of America people to as I was growing up was children shouldn't be seen on parents talking too
Conversely you can see how child abuse inflicted in this case on Jimmy, can result in behaviors that one may not have ever done in their life if they were loved and understood. No one wins in these situations. This is a very disturbing story told by a very loving brother. Things could’ve turned out much different for Jimmy. This is truly one of those sad ones.
Exactly! Any child who raised by parents without a loving care and always being compared to his other siblings and insulted will have a emotional problems and screwed mind… If only Jimmy got a loving environment when his growing up I am sure he won’t turn out the way he is now,I think he will just be like his brother….
@@loribrogdon7842 it's not an excuse, it's an explanation. Also people should be looked at case by case. Here we have a gullible guy who can't socially read people and assumes the best of everyone. (Much like myself but with me it's autism.) There is no evidence he swung a hammer. He was at the house but there's not one trace on his coveralls. It might very well be that Wright did it all. What I'm saying: he's not pure evil and he's not scheming or narcissistic. Life pretty much happens to him, he doesn't have much overview or capacity to strategise or take control of his life. He seems to stumble into felonies… and now a felony murder.
Jimmy is a terribly hurt & damaged young man, you can see the confusion, pain & anguish on his face as he hears how much his brother loves & actually understands him. Its a huge shame its happening in a court room. Jimmy as an unfortunate product of his neglected environment growing up was a pawn in this horrific story. Mark & Wayne Wright used him as an easy tool, they knew he would do it if they asked , as much for their goodwill and acceptance as for any money he might earn. They used him in this and took his life as well as Teresas and their own. I hope these brothers stay connected and that through being loved & forgiven by his only family that Jimmy will grow & develop as a better man in prison.
Unfortunately Jimmy really screwed himself by not talking to the police. He should have been the one to get a deal, not Wayne. But because of his stubbornness and his being so anti-‘the system’, Jimmy ruined his life even more than it already was. Wayne is a shit for involving this troubled kid in Mark Servers’ mess. It’s really sad.
@@ackamack101 Yes for sure its very sad that his loyalty to these dis-honourable men has even further hurt him. Unless you are born into the life its hard to comprehend , but in his own way Jimmy was staunch & loyal, he showed more decency than those lowlife rats , Jimmy couldnt grass his "friends" & he adhered to the code of ethics you learn on the streets. Getting by on the fringes of, if not fully outside of, society & the system is tough & Jimmy stuck to his word as these two lily livered cowards threw him under the bus as easily as they plotted & murdered an unsuspecting woman. Cant help but feel pity for the fool. He thought they appreciated & respected him and he bought into this fairytale of their righteous brotherhood against the child abusing bad woman...a terrible story from all angles.
@@FIONA21ful I agree. My heart goes out to this troubled kid. I have no sympathy for either Wayne or Mark. I think it is horrible that Wayne, who involved Jimmy in this in the first place, turned on him and threw him under the bus. Not cool!
@@ackamack101 Its nice to encounter another thinking person who can see through to the unpleasant realities of Jimmys position. If we are honest about it, then looking for respect & acceptance in the wrong places has hurt us all one way or another eh? Most people decide with their emotions & just see a monster, but I saw a lot of confusion in simple minded Jimmy. He was lied to & manipulated into seeing Teresa Severs as the monster. Im glad you too have room for pity in your heart for Jimmy.
@@FIONA21ful Thanks. You too! There is the ‘Hate the act, but not the person.’ You can see that Jimmy is obviously hurting by how he is trembling while his brother is talking. I think you can tell that he is someone who has a lot of hurt and damage inside of him. My heart does go out to him because he seems to me to be like a kid who is developmentally behind, and I also get the sense that he has never had a break in his entire life. My heart does go out to him.
God Bless Jimmys brother what a great man. My heart breaks for Jimmy what a horrible horrible childhood. His parents mentally damaged this child for life. I have no doubt his brother will visit him regularly and take care of him while he is in prison.
Peppa Pots And I’m a grown adult so, I don’t need you or anyone to tell me what I should or shouldn’t do. I will have sympathy for him and anyone else.
Overcomer very well said sir , I agree with you and it’s a shame that Jimmy got himself in this mess , it’s so sad to watch .... His parents is 💯 % the reason why this guy Jimmy is crazy enough to help commit a murder !!! This testimony by his Lawyer brother was absolutely perfect and couldn’t have been done any better by anyone , he definitely made the jury ponder and think long and hard on some things I’m sure of it .... His brother will surely see that he is not going hungry in Prison and that Jimmy has the money that he needs to take care of himself .... It’s really really sad that Jimmy will never see freedom again and it is also very sad that the victims family have to deal with the loss of their beautiful Daughter , sister , Mom , Cousin , Aunt , Etc. For absolutely nothing ... I mean where is the Motive to this senseless Murder , costing a young , successful , woman her life for no reason is disgusting .... I pray for the Victims Family and I Pray for this brother of the Convicted
Overcomer very well said. It’s upsetting when I read comments that jimmy is hated and no one cares for him. This has been his whole. No one caring about him. God loves him who are we not to love him. I hope he uses his time to make changes in his life.
until i heard his brother speak i hated Jimmy like poison. The brothers eloquent way of humanizing a monster was truly needed for us to see jimmy as more than a demented murderer but rather a human being deserving of some mercy and compassion so that he may one day seek and find forgiveness for his sins.
How eloquent were the 17 impacts that softly kissed her skull. Shame on Teresa. What a horrible, horrible person she was for causing so much trouble for poor Jimmy who suffered beyond measure.
His Girl I agree with your comment. Dr. Teresa Sievers didn’t do enough for poor abused neglected Jimmy. She should have done more for him so he didn’t stove in her skull and overkill her. My fear is he took his “mother” issue out on Dr. Sievers.
As a human being you should have that and don’t jump to conclusions. You don’t know everything and it’s clear he’s not all there and that would impact how he would behave.
John D. Leo I did not. I could see in his eyes lost soul and not cold hearted as some people thought and commented. Glad I watched his brother talking with crying heart- I cried too for Jimmy...
How dare Teresa die after being hit in the skull repeatedly........leaving poor Jimmy to deal with more trials and tribulations. Did she not even care? Did she not even stop dying long enough to consider the dreadfulness of hi family. How selfish of her?
I feel awful for these brothers. What a douchebag who took full advantage of his abilities and deficiencies but obviously was found competent to stand trial, if that’s how it works in the US.
Ilona I have to wonder if he was thinking of his mother as he stoved in Dr. Sievers skull. Taking out all of his frustrations and anger about his mother on her. Even the other murder tried to stop him from his overkill of Dr. Sievers. I read about overkill in analysis of medieval warfare and a concept called red mist. The combatants lose control of themselves during a battle and are very violent and tend to overkill their enemies because it was getting back at the other side. They become engulfed in red mist. This seems like what Jimmy here suffered from while bludgeoning Dr. Sievers to death. The poor dear lady.
Man.. This story makes me wanna cry.. I understand what he did was wrong but man.. What a life.. I wish I had all the amount of money to help him out in anyway I could..
@@loribrogdon7842 Also true. You cannot blame anyone for having feelings. You feell how you feel and I feel how I feel. I feel bad for the guy ike I feel bad for the victms obviously. Why do you people are always looking for an argument ? Damnnnn no ones cares man
The smile the brother has at the end when the judge asks "and if he has finished highschool" what a great brother even at the hardest of times. Love too see that and sorry this happened for them. I don't even know what Jimmy did yet. Have to watch author video but his brother's word kept me around because I feel the love.
The first guy hit the lady in the head with a hammer twice, but he has shoulder injuries, and no strength in them, so it didn’t knock her out like he thought it would (talking about other guy who took a plea deal for 25 years, so he could save his ass and have these two get the death penalty). Since he knew the victim very well through his best friend (the one who offered about 100 grand to off his wife), she was able to turn to him and ask, “Why?” That’s when this guy (Jimmy) came in and got the hammer and bashed her head in over and over and over. So much so that the “rat bastard” who copped a plea for 25 years, said himself that he had to stop Jimmy and tell him to put the hammer down. When asked why, he said, “It was just too much…like enough is enough.” In a way I feel sorry for him, because it’s clear he has problems and those problems will never be addressed now, and I can’t remember if he got the death penalty…but if he’s not in isolation on death row for the duration, he will be made to wish he was in isolation. To keep from editing this more so that I can put this damn phone down, I changed my mind. I don’t feel sorry for him. He didn’t even know this lady and he butchered her to death for $50k, and probably only half of that.
Wayne is a shit for involving this troubled kid in Mark Sievers’ mess. Then he threw Jimmy under the bus and testified against him when it was Wayne who got Jimmy involved in this in the first place. Really disgusting. I get the sense that Jimmy has never had a break in his entire life. 😔
'most' of us come from some type and degree of family 'dysfunction' while growing up, and 'most' all of us didn't grow up to plot and commit murders in our adulthood
The world is a big place, with a lot of people. Not all make headlines. But we do know that heavy crimes (as in murders, not petty theft) are mostly committed by people with very dysfunctional backgrounds. Or those wired the wrong way. People with normal childhoods and no mental disorders tend to live without causing this trouble.
I still believe he should be punished but omg he hAd no chance to live a normal life..it's not an excuse but makes it easier to understand why he'd make this horrific decision.
Sorry he had a horrible childhood, unfortunately a lot of people have. However at some point during the planing stage of this crime he must have known that what he is going to do is definitely not right. He chose to commit this murder out of the love for the money. He deserves the sentence recieved.
100% agree Yvonne. This is tragic but even more so that many people who had been brought up in similar circumstances to this man do the same without healing themselves firstly in their minds.
Yvonne Smith looks like your the only one who can see this for what it really is. He did have a ''choice'' and I really am over people forgetting that most important point here. He knows right & wrong. So many people have horrific childhoods, but they do not commit murder, if anything they often go the other way.
Even more sad that many are not consciously aware when they make those mistakes which form those circumstances,that is why things like meditation and prayer are very important.
@@jernikof of course not, he's a grown adult and must pay for what he did. It's a damn shame though his parents weren't held responsible for their neglect and abuse of him. Then maybe he wouldn't have turned out like he did.
Well there's nothing metallurgy wrong with him to know the difference between right and wrong. I hate or when they try to blame a bad upbringing that's BS. They know exactly what they have done.
@@hisgirl5493 I will....but understand it's not an excuse but its a reflection about why people actually do things. You don't know me or what I may have already experienced.
Jimmy appears to be neither here nor there, my heart goes out for him because we don't know his state of mind. May God be with Jimmy"s brother & God be the judge of Jimmy.
He had a chance at a normal life a split second before the hammer began to crack and shatter Teresa's skull. Would you feel the same way had Teresa been your daughter, sister, mother.......? Would you feel the same way.
He had every chance. This is America. He could have gone to college, gotten a degree, and changed the world in a good way. Instead, he bludgeoned a stranger to death with a claw hammer.
Jesse Fritz 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 a life of abuse, hardship, only identity was worthlessness . Alcoholic mother, abusive father, zero hope. Was told it’s a good thing to “stand up for yourself by physical fighting”...brother left him in horrible situations time after time .

Probably because he had an emotionally secure early childhood prior to the mother’s mental illness...unlike his brother. Also in contrast to Jimmy, he didn’t face his father’s cruel taunts
I have noticed in life that in some dysfunctional families that I have known, that the oldest sibling ends up being very mature, & successful due to growing up quickly and feeling the need to help out. However, in the ones that I have seen, they are usually really serious, & have a certain sadness about them. This man seems amazingly well rounded & I love that he can still smile. I do feel like bcuz of his younger brothers learning disability & obvious special needs, that he was taken advantage of & was used. I'm not in any way excusing him at all. He knew it was wrong & He did it. If I could flip flop the two murderers sentances though, I would give this defendant the 25 yrs & give the other one the life sentance. The other guy completely knew better & sucked this guy into helping him and then he played him to get the lighter sentance. This whole thing is absolutely gross and the other defendant & the husband (the worst POS of them all) were both intelligent & had not been through what this defendant has been through. That's all I'm saying. My heart aches for this big brother that tried so hard. He seems like an amazing guy. 💔😢 But, when it really comes down to all of the facts, my heart aches the most for the beautiful, innocent woman that those men murdered so violently! It was done in such a horrible, painful, disgusting way. This case is very chilling! She is the ultimate victim in all of this. 💔😢 🙏💕💕🙏💕💕🙏
I know I wouldn’t be saying this if it was my sister that was murdered - but my heart breaks for this man. Sometimes children don’t stand a chance of functioning as functional adults. Wow the impact dysfunctional parenting has on this world 💔
Wayne is a shit for involving this troubled kid in Mark Sievers’ mess. Then he threw Jimmy under the bus and testified against him when it was Wayne who got Jimmy involved in this in the first place. Really disgusting. I get the sense that Jimmy has never had a break in his entire life. 😔
What a great brother , he did the best that he could. This is so sad. Not making excuses for what he did but it’s tragic for all of these people. Mark and Curtis rot in hell!
Teresa was my friend. She was so very Kind. And yet I am sorry that he went through those things. No child should have to. Nevertheless my good friend is gone for ever. God help them all.
You know who has had a worse childhood other than this guy??? The two little girls who had their mother brutally murder by their father who paid this guy to do it. They are only 8 and 11 years old. They lost everything and have to grow up knowing how their mother was murdered.
My mother is a malignant narccissist who subjected me to YEARS of physical and emotional abuse and my father is one of Britain's longest serving prisoners and one of the most violent and dangerous and is a sociopath a narcissist and a physcopath and I can honestly say IVE NEVER HARMED ANYONE. I am SO SICK of "bad parenting" or a "tough childhood" being used as an EXCUSE by animals for the vile crimes they commit. It INFURIATES ME that ALL survivors of abuse have to be tarred with this brush that makes us " all animals" or are "expected to fail" or become perpatrators of the most heino and VILE crimes. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH THERE IS IS NO GOD DAMN EXCUSE.
There's a vast difference between an act of evil, and appeal to the deficiencies in someone mental capacities. The world is full of disadvantaged ppl, how many are murderer's? There's also a vast difference between objective acts and subjective excuses. I applaude this brother to try to mitigate his murdering brother's involvement. But, truth is truth.
My husband was in and out of orphanage and foster care! He was with his mom til he was 3 and it was like their mom! He ended up in foster homes abused, SA’ed, food tortured (forced to eat raw onions for dinner in the corner while the parents would show their plates and antagonize him), etc! He went thru literal hell! He has never been in trouble more than a speeding ticket, never tasted alcohol, never smoked a cigarette or even seen marijuana in person, etc but is such a loving, kind, giving human who decides not to become a product of his environment who makes $100,000 a year and takes care of me (30yo) who has colon cancer!
He crushed a ladies head with a hammer, walked away and came back to hit her with the hook end of the hammer multiple times. Eye for an eye needs to be the rule of law.
I think after hearing his brothers description of his poor mental development, his use of drugs etc and his susceptibility to manipulation by Anyone that he was the dupe in that murder. Pathetic soul. But maybe with his reduced mentality any psycho or pharm treatment wouldnt have done any good.
I normally see things in black and white and I can be super brutal at times... But I feel sorry for Jimmy... Not as much as I do for the victim and her mother and sister... But I still feel compassion for Jimmy... How we are raised is what u become the majority of the time.... So sad all of this...
If the felony charges for the possession of firearms went down as described ... then Jimmy should not have been convicted since his brother had inquired about it before the raid and was told it was not a matter by the control officer ... the legality of the raid is questionable
Theres no excusing what Jimmy did, but the guy didn’t have the greatest childhood. I don’t want to think what it must be like for a young kid to be told to go kill himself by his father and the damage that would cause. It would have caused severe issues for most people. Jimmy although deserving of his punishment is a victim too, both by the abuse he received from his father and by being taken advantage of by his co-conspirators.
It's nauseating that so many comments empathize with Jimmy so much after his brothers testimony. No no no. This brother is a great speaker who loves his brother but I'm not cutting him slack for a murder for hire because he had some shitty childhood. He also had some loving people in his life who tried to help him. Lots of people have had worse. He made horrible and evil choices and should get as much mercy as he gave the Dr he beat to death. None.
It doesn't excuse what he did, but when you hear what his childhood was like he really didn't have a chance. We need to do better as a country of identifying and helping kids in situations like these.
I don't normally feel bad for murderers but there's something about this kid. My heart goes out to him. He must have felt he never belonged or fit in. His brother is a great articulate witness for him 😭
You know...after his brother took the stand, I could see the ignorance in this guy Jimmy. He kinda looks pitiful in my eyes. The kinda of person whose had if pretty rough growing up so I so kinda feel bad for him. But at the same time, killing someone for no reason at all; there really isn't any excuse for that.
This is heartbreaking. I'm not saying this excuses Jimmy Ray's turning to a life of crime; but this testimony certainly makes me see him in a different light. As I've watched the entire process of the murder of Dr. Seivers I've seen Jimmy as a slime ball. I don't see him that way anymore. His brother's testimony is clearly honest. I can tell because his descriptions could only come from someone who actually lived in such a nightmarish upbringing. Jimmy clearly had a hellish, abusive childhood in which he was told he was worthless and nothing more than an inconvenience for those who should have loved him. When you are a child you desperately need to be loved and affirmed by your parents. To be a little boy and have your own father say "you're a piece of shit" is profoundly heartbreaking. I now understand Jimmy Ray's story in a way that gives me some compassion I didn't have before. Like I said it doesn't excuse his behavior but it does explain it. Now he's been shipped off to prison where he will continue to be damaged and dehumanized. What a complete waste of human life.
The damage started at a very young age. What was the dad thinking. Saying these kind of stuff to your kids can hurt! It can lead to something like this. This is a 😢 a hurtful case. Praying that jimmy gets help that he needs. Thank you big brother for your love support for him
Jimmy was abused by his parents and NEVER had the NURTURING a child needed to develop normally. The family and the system cause him to do this. It's easy to lock him up and throw away the keys. Poor man never had a chance 😢
To all the "poor Jimmy" people, y'all did hear the other killer say Jimmy laughed about the way he killed her. But yeah he was mental, who kills someone on credit.? Oh yeah Jimmy and Wayne does.
I have sympathy for him because I see him as still a child that wasn't given what he needed to be a grown adult. I find it interesting that when something like this happens, everyone is quick to say EVIL and KILL HIM as if they themselves have never had an issue, an argument, lost a temper even just once. I am a "quiet" borderline though, I had my own trauma and developed my own narcissistic and manipulative traits. I remember how hurt I felt at the time, and no one helped me. It took a while for me to find my way back to having normal boundaries, being self aware about when I put myself before others, etc. So I can see and feel both sides. My thing is, the HANG HIM attitude doesn't really help what to do to prevent more of these type cases. Despite the fact that I have no kids and hate being around them (probably due to not having a decent childhood myself), I want to still raise awareness about how important the childhood developmental years are, that kids need to be protected for more than one reason. Anyway, we all ought to have the sight to see that life isn't black and white. Sorry about the choppy, long rant.
This kinda reminds me of my uncle and my dad.. bad homelife but my dad is a drug addict still till this day and my uncle became a cop ..one turned out good and one turned out not so good...I'm not comparing what happened in this case But the concept of the 2brothers had the same homelife and one went right and one went left.
Now I understand him a bit...the guy picked him for the crime because, he knew as his brother puts it "he's a bit behind.." . Not saying it excuses him but how evil to do this (the kind of parents they had, I feel so bad that his brother is blaming himself for what his younger brother turne out to be. You were just a child yourself...
Wayne is a shit for involving this troubled kid in Mark Sievers’ mess. Then he threw Jimmy under the bus and testified against him when it was Wayne who got Jimmy involved in this in the first place. Really disgusting. I get the sense that Jimmy has never had a break in his entire life. 😔
The killing of his internal Spirit is way way more detrimental the any bruise. Those heal. When you tell a 6 year old their a piece of shit and the go kill themselves... That right there is murder to a spirit.
Excuses excuses excuses. I had a pretty horrendous childhood and left home and struck it out on my own at 15 years old. I would NEVER hurt someone (unless in self defence). He did the crime. He has to take the punishment.
Let's see...i had no father bc my mother abused heroin, i wound up in foster care til i was 15 when i ran away wound up doing 3yrs in prison for distribution.. Never killed anyone...
No excuse for committing murder. We all have to endure terrible things in our life and we don't murder other people. It's time to stop coddling criminals and make them accountable for their actions. Stop your crying jimmy it doesn't make people feel sorry for you.
Jimmy looks like he could cry at Any second! Aside from Facing life this must be So hard for Jimmy to hear! Doesn't excuse what he did by Any means but it's Heartbreaking watching Jimmy listen to All of this!
This DOES NOT excuse Rodgers of his abysmal crime! You want to play the blame game, go ahead. It does not pass muster. He received the sentence he deserved.
@G N I do understand. To be frank, I was raised by an extremely abusive mentally ill mother who would beat me for no reason. This began when I was less than 1 year old. I was sexually molested by several teachers in kindergarten and 1st grade. I was viciously bullied at school. The list goes on. I acted out by using heroin and every drug you can think of except street crack and crystal meth. I understand the level of hatred and seething rage that lives in a soul until it's properly handled. I never acted out by hurting anyone else. I just hurt myself, but I do know that if things had been different perhaps I would've started hurting, raping, maybe killing. I'm glad that didn't happen. I cleaned up at age 51. I'm now 64 and working as a SAG-AFTRA actor almost non-stop.
He’ll experience prison justice. Prison has a way of meting out justice that, in many cases, is very appropriate, in my opinion. He’ll probably be raped and beaten on a regular basis, made someone’s fucking bitch in no time, and you know what? I understand that too. Robbery. But I didn’t have to endure that for long. I’m one of the lucky ones. I do not take that for granted. danberkey.net
Jimmy’s brother spoke articulately and clearly of his sibling’s upbringing, however not all such unfortunate individuals with less than stellar parentage go on to commit such heinous acts.
Don't even know why this is relevant, you can have all the excuses under the sun, Jimmy brutally murdered another person, thats not from his upbringing, he was fully aware of what he was doing, thats not from his childhood.
No excuse for idiots agreeing to murder a innocent, defenseless women. This brother on the stand had same life style as his brother and he didn’t turn into a murderer so using their childhood as a defense is bulls@@t, they know right from wrong, he knew it’s not right to murder a person so who cares how he was treated as a child, it doesn’t effect him taking money to kill someone
WOW, Jimmy"s young days were horrible, hurtful! I see why he had taken the road he did. What he did was so wrong but his parents started the process of his STINKIN THINKIN.
@Lisa Michele his life sounds like a life of luxury compared to many others, and those sad sacks never beat a woman to death with a hammer, for money no less.
Doesn't make you not know right from wrong. If he still can't do that he shouldn't be put on trial, but committed to a psychiatric ward. With all the addicts with kids there should way many killers in the world.
we were three kids, We went through hell as a kid and the rest of life. We r 3 kids to a paranoid scitz mom and my dad too was a scitz so we grew up in the system bc mom put us there n never came back so we were thrown out to servive but not one of us are violent in our community and none of us have spent time in prison except me n I didn’t stay long so it’s no excuse where u come from it’s what u do with what u got that makes you who you are. I’ve heard that we in my family have every right to b serial killers but it’s not where we want to go or want to b. There is no good excuse for these poor excuses this guy is talking about just bullshit.
I do feel very sad for this brother about the situation he is in, and I do believe that Jimmy Rodgers probably did have a really rough childhood, but so do a lot of us it doesn't give us the right to drive to Florida and beat a woman to death with a hammer
DEFINATELY FEEL SO SORRY FOR JIMMY.... What a horrendous up bringing....and as a result another broken human.... I know he did wrong but he hopefully can end up in a low security prison and have some sort of life....all this because of an evil husband.... These are the guys that give men such a bad reputation. SO sorry Jimmy...
Fuck Jimmy.. your not having me cry here.. how many people have had a hard life and don't take it out on others or go out too murder someone.. for Theresa's family my heart goes out to you all..❤
