Yeah, the people who hung around with him were the ones who had "fallen in with a bad person"! It's hard to believe the other guys were worse than him.
The son and those parents are the bad people the fact that they have the audacity to sit in the courtroom and give a sob story about the little maniac that they raised and let loose on us is ridiculous it's no wonder this kid turned out the way he did how can you have any sense of right and wrong or accountability if your the fruit that fell from that evil tree
@@travisjohnson3319Comments like yours make me lament the fact we even progressed in society this far to have laws and safety. People are still animals at the end of the day.
@@seootea6679 he tried and did carjack/rob 5 different people, shot a woman in the face, and was stealing the vehicles for human smuggling(as stated in the video). 45 years is beyond justified.
@@breeeeez4348 You are right, it is not a joke. I live between Folsom and Vacaville Prisons. San Quinten is not that far away. I have Corrections Officers for neighbors and friends. I know what is going on inside. Young guys rectums are still tight. It behooves them to be acquired by someone powerful.
@Vulgarandbored The point of my comment is PRECISELY about not being able to make this about race? 😅 Everyone is Hispanic therefore the criminal cannot play the "race card" 😂
It’s not really the parents fault because kids can be deceiving Maybe he acted like a good wholesome kid in front of them. But when his parents weren’t around he was far from good
@@lestercross5123Well, that’s his parents imagine if you did this horrible crime against this poor Woman. Your parents will still have compassion for you because even when the world still hates you Your mom and dad will still forgive you and want better for you.
The fact that the parents are there defending his actions and pleading with the judge says everything . If I ever did something like this my parents would throw the book at me.
Really ? You think your parents would just abandon you if you did this? I'd love to test that theory. I ultimately feel sorry for the parents in most cases. It's the ultimate no win situation for most parents here, and it sounds like you're just puffing smoke.
He said "throw the book" idiot, not abandon. Try not making words up and it might make sense, because "throwing the book" in this context would mean his parents would want him to be held accountable and receive the max sentence. My parents would never beg the judge to show me mercy. That doesn't mean you don't love or support your child.. or that you've abandoned them. Why does this have to be explained to you?
When the parents try their best to convince the judge not to punish a criminal. But dont try their best to prevent their children from becoming that criminal.
@@mach183 Im sure it does. The problem is that parents "THINK" they are raising them right only to find out, in fact, it was wrong. Bad parents are easy to spot.
My mom died when I was 6 and my sister was 7. My sister and I literally heard her drop dead in her bathroom while we were in her bedroom. I can proudly say neither one of us has shot anyone ever.
No one is perfect, I see a lot of commenters who seem to think they walk on water and are saints. But I’ll say, it’s good that you never broke the law but stop thinking you are perfect because no one is a Angel
@@Jay-ct9rt You aren't going to do anything and unless you were carrying at the time and able to end him after you were shot in the face. Otherwise, you let the fight go to decision and you are going to sit there, in the court room, like a good little angel so you don't also go to jail for manslaughter/murder. You probably just aren't either of those. No one here is fooled, please stop with the internet tough guy act. Your a good boy and you will act like a good boy whether you like it or not. The dude is going to jail for 45 years. It's fine and the victim is satisfied.
He doesn’t mean one word of his “apology.” So sick of these parents not taking accountability for their offspring. Wishing the best possible life for the victim.
So if the case was turned and you’re son or daughter did this you should pay for it?do you know how many people kill everyday and not once their parents get the blame and accountability there is millions of parents of people that have to deal with this and wished there kids went a difrent route but we all make our choices that’s why I choose to serve god and forgive those who sined against me like god forgives us for our sins💯
@@Mark-sy2bx He didn't act in the moment. He decided to do a car jacking, and planned it in advance, arming himself so that he could inflict fatal damage if resisted. And then he deliberately repeated the entire act over and over... 5 times... until he was caught. You're the only one making assumptions. It's not an assumption he would continue his pattern of behaviour. It's an assumption that he would ever regret this "hobby" of car-jacking and threatening the lives if innocent people.
Back then in the United States you were considered a adult at the age of 13 , lot of young men at the age 13 die in the titanic because only women & children in the lifeboat’s
You're naive, but many hardcore criminals do stand a chance. These kids and child molesters don't. I've been down and I held up because I'm neither of these and fight like a Monster. They only respect that. Not snowflakes like you that know everything.
Everyone has a sad story. He says he is sorry, but if he hadn’t been caught, he would still carjacking. He’s not sorry for what he did, he’s sorry he got caught.
What legitimate defense would you have for shooting a civilian in the face during a car jacking? There is literally none. But the defense attorneys have to play their role so they come up with that hogwash. You oughta know that you're going away for a long time if that's the only leg you have to stand on
I had a poor and bad childhood. I was a bad kid who hung out with gang members doing terrible things, and they ended up in prison still to this day. Luckily, I realized I didn't want to escalate further and end up like them, so I broke away. I became a loner, went to school, and served in the military. It's just in your character what kind of person you are. This teen needs to go to prison. This was his choice. He could have broken away or not escalated it further by trying to kill that woman. Glad he's going to get 45 years to think about it.
@brianrussell7369 Especially when he’s around 19 or 20 when sentenced. He’ll be out when he’s 65. That’s he’s entire life spent in prison. He destroyed his life just to be a tough man at 17 or 18.
Yes, but isn't murder worse? I know of one case were an innocent person was kicked to death, and those found guilty were sentenced to 2 1/2 years in prison. It's a bizarre system we have.
@@josephinetracy1485 I totally agree with you about our system. However, this case was clearly ATTEMPTED m*rder. So, the outcome of the kicking incident may be worse than this carjacking, but the intent is the same.
You must be a kid 😂 the inmates can care less as long as your not a pedophile. Everybody is doing their time trying to go home 😂 Sorry to burst your bubble kid
100% incorrect. they don't care about adults shooting other adults in the middle of committing other crimes. do you have any idea how prisoners think???
@@ultimatedouchebag6760 I took a trip to Cali recently. I’m convinced the people who dump on it have A. Never been there. B. Too poor to go. It’s both for you. It’s pathetic. Regurgitated what tim pool and joe rogan says. At least i get to mock you 4 months later.
Millions of people had bad childhoods and grow up to be amazing people. I grew up with one parent who was out drunk most of the time, we lived in a very small 1 bedroom apartment, most of the time couldnt afford rent or bills. I still went to college because I knew I had to do better for myself. There is no excuse for shooting random people, carjacking, breaking laws and ending up in prison. Everyone has the opportunity to be a decent human.
It's just odds. Some great football players make it to the NFL and others don't. Can be the difference of a good coach, possibly some inspiration through a book, whatever.
Animal! No one forced him to commit those crimes. The fact that he was stealing a car to be used in further crimes and SHOT the woman in the face (attempted murder in my book) is simply unforgivable. He should’ve been sentenced to life in prison.
You should be thankful that in the US you have a justice system that knows how to deal with criminals like this. Seriously, if this was in the UK, he'd get 10 years and be out in 6 for good behaviour
@@keith6591 Most inmates in the US will serve only about 50% of their sentence, then they're up for parole. Depends on their behavior. Trust me the US judicial system is falling apart. Every criminal we see being arrested already has dozens of arrests on his record, should be in jail but they're out on the street committing more crimes. City prosecutors are not pressing charges or reducing serious charges to misdemeanors for most criminals.
@@jonesy4588My late grandpa was a prison officer for 40 years and said prison rehabilitates. He did on occasion sentence murderers and drug traffickers to death by hanging, which he hated doing.
Stealing a car for human smuggling & shooting a woman in face. Parents should ONLY be asking what they can do to restore the damage their sons done, not making excuses
Grew up without a mother, what a load of crap. I have friends who grew up with one parent and none of them robbed raped shot or killed anybody because of that.
We've had two presidents who grew up without dads. Ringo Starr never met his and John Lennon didn't meet his until he was a superstar. Steve McQueen grew up in an orphanage and lots of famous actors grew up in similar circumstances.
@@moulikfalujahhe deserves every minute of it.. hope he enjoys the 5 star food court and luxury suites ❤ and the car jacking went wrong for him.. he got caught
@@moulikfalujah No such thing as a car jacking gone wrong. There’s wrong and there’s right… it’s either one or the other, not some grey area moral dilemma about whether to drive over the speed limit if it seems safe enough…
@@snigglestraggletheatre1749 its actually not the best country in the world. Im born and raised in the U.S lived on both coast and ive been to several countries that are better all around than the U.S.
I remember to this day, over 50 years ago while a teenager living at home, my father said "I am only going to tell you this one time: if you end up in jail do not call me I will not bail you out" - I believed him and I never did have to learn whether or not it was true.
@@Mark-sy2bx Parents who really love you want you to learn from your mistakes, and bailing your kid out of jail means they never have to learn their own lessons.
Carjacker who shot a woman on the face gets 45 years, whilst the truck driver who got into a terrible accident initially got over a hundred years. Wow.
I've had a whole bad life ,not just childhood but i will help anyone who needs my help and I'm kind and considerate to all ,so you choose what you want to be ,i choose to be good and no matter what's thrown at me i ride out the storm, I'm no quitter !
@@mrk6770THIS over and over. It bothers me to see people freaking out about defense lawyers doing a job they took OATHS to do. The lawyer may despise their client but that won't stop them from working every angle possible. It's a constitutional right.
He deserves it. No need to have people like that on the streets for decades. Hell my father wasn't in my life after the age of 4, and had to deal with a hot headed step father, who never supported me on anything, except me going into the Army, a month after i graduated. Hey, those are the breaks. No reason to go out and do what he did. Just another lame excuse.
i beat on my moms boyfriend because he used to smack her dog around because they never potty trained her and when she pissed on the floor he would take it out on the dog. i was also 18 on parol and dont take kindly to animal abusers
Mothers should respect their kids n wait until kids are grown and out of the house to think about a relationship… No new man is gonna claim your kids as their own
It’s amazing how they always seem to “fall in with bad people”. I was a U.K. officer for three decades and in that time I never seemed to come across the “bad people” only those that “fell in”with these apparently mythical beings.🙄🙄🙄🙄
"I'm not the same person I was two years ago." -shooter In other words, "I've been practicing my apology for two years, hoping it'll get me a lighter sentence."
My boy said he had been thinking about what he has done... So the judge gave him a little more time and a special place to keep thinking. What a nice judge
"I have had a lot of time to think about how sorry I am that I was caught doing the things I did to you, and I wish for you to treat me as if I had never done them, because that is the best thing for me."
@@DontBeAWollyy Yes, genius, you did miss it. If you spent less time acting like a keyboard tough guy and paid more attention to what you're commenting on you wouldn't make dumb statements that only serve to embarrass you.
My dad died when I was 11. I never committed felonies. Worst I ever done was get a universal remote and change peoples tv channels on them while they watch football.
He could care less about what he did to that woman, his only concern while he was "apologizing" was a lighter sentence. Prayers for this strong young woman.
@@dann5480 Is your brain underdeveloped? Giving 5 years for carjacking and attempted murder is a slap on the wrists, and letting the criminal know he can do it again without facing real consequences.
I've had a really tough childhood too but took that all on the chin and became a fairly successful self-made man. Don't find excuses,go find a path in life and thrive.
Oh please! My father died of a massive heart attack when he was twenty-seven years old. I was two years old at the time. How come I didn't turn to a life of crime? Just because he grew up without a mother doesn't excuse his behavior.
The fact that she survived such terrible injury is beyond comprehending ! I'm glad she had tremendous luck and resilience to overcome this tragic agression.
Im a parent, my kids are now 40 and 36, I think I was a good parent and both my kids admit they were brought up well. However, when they left the house as a younger person or even as an adult their choices were there own free will and beyond my control. For your child to be given 45 years jail time sounds about right. If I was to make a statement to the court, it would have been along the lines of. I hope this young lady makes a full recovery and go on to live a fullfilling life. Society today is summed up in a nutshell when parents of these thugs first thought is to ask for leniency, not the welfare of the victim
Thank god, a judge that actually sentences accordly. I swear most judges nowadays will give 20 years for having weed on you, then turn around and give a pedo 3 years. Like how the hell does that make sense? I hope this judge continues to give harsh sentences to the right people.
Because the government doesn't actually care if you diddle kids but they definetly care if your buying or selling something and their not getting their cut from taxes
He's only sorry in court because he got caught. My father ran off when i was 3 and my kid brother was 6 months, our mother raised us both with some help from her own mother for her long hours thru the week working to provide, and broke her back between working 2 and sometimes 3 jobs and doing her best to fulfill both parental roles. Taught us how to throw a football, put on a baseball glove and throw, shoot a basketball, den mother in Cub Scouts, etc.,etc., etc. Im 66 now my brother 63, both veterans, law abiding, patriotic citizens with NO criminal history whatsover. Thanks Mother, continue to RIP
5 carjackings and the last one is attempted murder. 45 years is a very leanent sentence. He is a monster that would never unless hes locked up or executed.
I’m glad the victim DID NOT fall for the perp’s fraudulent currency, his ‘sale’ job of trying to minimize his penalty. Also, thank you to the judge who also wasn’t buying what the perp was selling…. Thank you. All the best to the beautiful victim. We can think that she should be able to get over something this heinous, but we will never realize how traumatic being the victim of violent crime is,….until we are. The way society is going, we very well might be next.
Good on the judge for making an example of him and giving him a proper sentence. Those are crocodile tears he's crying. He's not sorry he did it. He's only sorry he got caught and is now about to spend what should be the best years of his life behind bars.
I watch a lot of these videos and it will never fail to amaze me that they can stand there and think they don't deserve a lot of punishment because, as he said, "I am not the same person I was two years ago." While I am sure they actually ARE the same, it still takes some gall to stand there and say "I ruined your life, but since I say I've changed, I should not get in trouble (or as much trouble)."
