The Disturbing Case of Cosmo DiNardo 

Feel better soon 🌟🌹

Hey Mike

No worries! Hope you feel better soon! See ya next time.

Get well soon, lad.

Get well soon🤍

WOW! What a story, one of your best yet! Get well soon, Mike, and stay safe.

Pure evil.

mwheeler138 yes, just that feeling of not being able to do much but cry and scream 😰

Hi :3

Absolutely horrific. That will stick with me for a long time.

Thats what I thought to

Exactly

I mean he was living in a flesh prison with a fucked up brain. Basically just a frankenstein waiting to happen. Sucks all around.

dean was more of a man nd good person than cosmo couldve ever hoped to be. cosmo is a loser.

I thought he was calling someone a turd on one episode, when he was actually referring to the "third" sibling.

And now the for the past 10 years the Republicans have been having all the mental hospitals shutdown and torn down in their States it's almost impossible to get mental health treatment now that's why people are so crazy nowadays. I live in North Carolina we have a republican house and they had the State mental hospital Dorothea Dix that had been there since 1840 completely torn down I mean the whole site was like a historic site there was all kinds of buildings there that were built in the eighteen and they had the whole place demolished in a condominium complex built there.

What would you suggest though? Locked up in mental institution for life?

@@Jamiet-lk8xqwhat would you suggest? Just because victims suffer, doesn’t mean they have answers.

Here here!

Mee 🙋‍♀️

Here. I'm still glad for that one RU-vid recommendation.

Literally everyone lol

Mike has come up with some brain-addictive algorithm so you actually cant stop viewing. Im still trying to figure out how that algorithm work for my own channel....

all these muderers are always sorry for themselves but NEVER for the victims... narcissistic psychopath

Obviously not. If he cared he wouldn't have killed them. At least, he wouldn't have killed 4.

But he had a concussion, therefore he wasn’t responsible!!! /s

I’m sure the injuries created psychopathy.

@@zolaandile1330 ew

May they rest in Peace.

Im from this area too and remember when this was going on

Omg your right

Most callous murderers only care about themselves, look at Trump for example!!!

Fr that's so fucked

Abelis lmao can we talk about the 30 ppl committing suicide the week of testifying against Hillary lmao!

Kitten Lyric bad jacketed?

My son ever does something to get that large a bail: I’m killing him myself, and making bail myself.

As long as it was a previous crime he'd get the money back anyway?

@@khalilmason why? save your money, let him rot in jail

@@supabry26 The bail works, is if his bail was set at one million dollars, his parents could post that entire one million and so long as he didn't skip bail they should get that back. He said they paid 10% of the one million which leads me to believe they paid a bondsman. Most people don't have enough cash on hand to pay that full bail amount. You give the bail bondsman a percentage, usually 10%, and the bondsman will post the entire bail. That's a huge risk, if the person skips bail the bondsman is out his money (at which case they pay a bounty hunter X amount to go find the person and bring them in so they get their bail money back, which isn't always a sure thing). When all goes well, the bondsman gets his bail back and keeps the bond that was paid as his payment. That means his parents would have spent $100,000 that they were never going to get back to keep their son out of jail while awaiting trial (which sometimes take a year or more).

@@Lugh444 he came from a wealthy family so I don't doubt that they did have the cash on hand

It’s an Italian name

Cosmo Kramer?

Wrong.

Wym walk Infront of the trucks ? Like Cosmo worked for his dads construction company too ?

A lot of times what happens as well is the family is scared of the family member. And quite frankly it is hard to get mental help for anyone in PA. Just tried to do it for a family member of mine....impossible. Five different reports and zero action from the social services.

Terrible parents...

@Tim Haverland You have to go through crisis unfortunately. The hospitals won't admit them if they say they don't need/ want help. Unless of course they commit a crime.... Then it's off to jail.

@Tim Haverland Yes it is.

Maybe the family was too busy making more money.

My deepest condolences friend.

How did he deserve to then?

@@mikeewallace6188 Old age? like most people hope for? l2brain

i’m so sorry for your loss. sending love

Holy shit sorry man

My buddy was good friends with Mark Sturgis. She was pissed when the media kept focusing on how Cosmo lured them with a drug deal and tried painting her friends as deserving rather than victims.

k

You are telling me that a man uncapable of controlling him self do to brain damage is not a victim ?

@@mottoloveurlala He's the victim of a failed system. He's not the victim of these murders.

@@mottoloveurlala stfu

im so sorry for your loss bro.. I remember this very well, it was terrible. i don't live far from bucks County so this shook our town too. way too close to home for something out of a movie to happen around here.

🙏🙏

He died ?

Amen🙏

people are remembered and talked about when they are lost when they are alive everyone Ghosts em

He was hit in the head multiple times dude wasnt right in the head

Fake ass wannabe gangster culture is just one thing fucking up duhmerica.. now the politicians are fucking it up worse smh

​@@smokingaces777yes honestly i believe he has permanent brain damage

​@@smokingaces77726:50 I think they meant the other guy Sean

Same thing happens to a lot of wannabe rappers

The same here... 4 drug idiots got trouble with themselves

@@djarvils are you saying that by trying to buy weed they deserved to die?! If so that’s fucking disgusting

@@djarvils I've got good smoke for sale, bro. Just drive out to my farm.

@@derp8575 sounds like a murderer

Yup rich kid syndrome at it's worst. smh. Well his parents aren't fully responsible he did have that brain injury, the doctors are another story though. this one hurts my head and my heart.

@scuba Steve 100% facts :( hearing that people close to you could do this or with whom you have only small encounters with..yikes

I can’t even imagine what the one young man who was paralyzed felt like as the backhoe was driving towards him. So heartless.

This does not give me hope for this video at all lol

@@carolgannon2307 this the one that hit me the hardest.

@@mellochoco10 Me too. I'm tearing up just thinking about it, it's so terrifying. That poor boy.

I'm curious how a local reporter job gets outsourced ?

@@MoAli-wm4of I was the design editor but I worked with editors and writers when building the pages. Design was outsourced

Yeah Mike does his homework

So whatever happened with the civil suit for negligence filed against his parents? I'm surprised there wasn't a lawsuit against the police dept for not pursuing any charges when there had been so many red flags in his case.

that kind of broke my heart. seems they were not great parents but nooooo one expects their babies to turn in to serial killers. sad all around, especially for the victims and their families.... they were so young and just trying to buy weed and be a little bad ass, we've all done shit like that. i have had a concussion that changed my personality a little so while i feel for that aspect, i could only hope someone around me would notice and permanently institutionalize me if i ever got that bad!!! my concussion has just given me anxiety and depression and delve in to withdrawal and the booze. just me and my cats being lonely hermits.

@@giggleweed I'm a lonely hermit with cats too. I swear that my cats are my therapy

It is hoorifying!

@The Realist I'll pick someone up next time I'm out. Thanks for reminding me.

@@nunpho Perfect response to someone with zero empathy. I reported that idiot's response to this.

I agree 😔 it's awful I don't know how someone can do that, I'll never understand.

Did you guys miss the part where his frontal lobe was damaged after all his brain injuries from football? He wasn't born like this. We have to have compassion for the person he was and could of been. We are all born naked and innocent.

@@existentialhowl1067 How do you explain the cousin?

@@existentialhowl1067 He wasn’t exactly a saint before the accident either. The biggest issue though is the blatant negligence on his parent’s part. I think they were so tired of dealing with his crap that they ultimately found it easier to turn a blind eye to his whereabouts and daily activities. He was a spoiled rich kid who never heard the word no, and had just about anything and everything at his disposal. Mommy, Daddy, and Mayor DiGirolamo made sure this kid never suffered the consequences, and as a result he thought himself above the law. I can’t imagine having all that money and not getting my child who clearly has major mental health issues, the absolute best care available. Just lazy and selfish, as is evident in their lack responsible gun ownership. I have a very personal connection to this case, so I’ll end my rant there. I tend to get very worked up anytime I discuss it and sometimes still can’t believe this actually happened here.

@@existentialhowl1067 I'm sorry I cannot have compassion for that monster. Other people have mental illnesses, brain injuries, etc and they don't go around PLANNING murders! The way in which he killed those young boys is unforgivable. It's up to God to judge him though, not me. Be safe everyone. 🙏

Okay Mose

God, that's the truth.

@@cdd4248 unless it’s the farm at Langley

Unless it’s in Destiny 2, and the intent is to take back The Tower from the Red Legion

@@nojsageiv true!

Yeah, when he said that he "stfu" when he heard the vehicle turn on was so heartless

@@fervcorsica3358 Such a bad thing happened, I just hope he's in a better place now

yup... such a shame that good ole Cosmo isnt being executed in the same manner. Slowly and publicly imo. Its just absolutely unexusable and mental health here is a joke. You dont murder 4 innocent people that he knew WITH someone everytime. God i wish public executions were still a thing. such a shame.

@@redbeardjohnson2570 I think that Sean character pushed him, didn't take much. Sean wanted to be a notorious killer, and Cosmo had the tools to accomplish his fantasy.

Death penalty for murderers.

Yeah, no kidding. It's like he was doing a 100% speedrun of every psychological disorder on the DSM-V

K2 drove 2 people at my school crazy. Both ended up having psychological breakdowns and being taken out of school and committed. That stuff eats your brain.

I took a big bong rip of wicked xXx which was a variant of K2, when I was about 16 and OD'ed. That shit was no joke.

😂

That shit is pure poison.

Homie needed four padded walls or a hot shot

Scary shit right there. It gives you an idea of why serial killers aren't turned in while they are still in the animal torrure phase..Denial.

As a kid my mom always said I anything's possible... but I guess when your a drug dealing diagnosed schizophrenic with head trauma smoking synthetic drugs anything really is possible.

I'm not lessening his blame or anything like that but head injuries definitely change a person. I've seen it in my own family.

@Alcoon Slambag the comment would have said it was edited then. It doesn't. You're a lying weirdo.

Psychopaths can't empathise with their victims. They only see an outcome's effect on themselves.

The same description that makes you angry makes me sad. His struggles with mental health were ignored and/or underestimated, and a lot of people paid a very high price for that.

@@kathrynhoward4196 for his parents lack of being that, a parent.

Iam Sad that they boys did not get the help they needed. No one needed to die. They did a horrific thing, but as someone who has had needed mental help my selfe i can feel nothing but sadness that it had to come to this. Make no mistake. In this case 6 live have bin lost that could have bin saved. They deserve life in prison. But iam still sad that this had to happen. Greetings from Germany

biden : damn those bad people. you know the thing.

@Nikki Sixx That coupled with small town mentality was what really did it, I believe. I grew up in and around towns very similar to that, and the levels of outright denial and cognitive dissonance is astounding. The residents cling to this overly wholesome idea of community and anything that falls outside of that is ignored completely. A lot of things go on in rural areas that aren't addressed because nobody wants to deal with it.

@Nikki Sixx Do you mean CTE? i think the same about OJ, chronic traumatic encephalopathy, but you don't know until they're dead

Yep. I see it.

I work at a psychiatric hospital and agree. I see a lot of young men just like Cosmo.

Wow, really? This is such an intriguing topic. Now I gotta binge watch videos on frontal lobe injuries and the effects.

@@MsIvyLeigh yeah, full personality changes, inability to control most all impulses... Etc. Quite dad really

Just think, the guy who invented pre-frontal lobotomies won a Nobel prize.

what a sad fate

I know right! They would have been heaps of fun to hang out with.

That's a beautiful thought and a beautiful way to remember them... Thank you.

I was thinking the same thing

That pic made me laugh and reminded me of so many silly guys I’ve known. It really gave us a glimpse into what their personalities were probably like, seems like it would be fun to be friends with them.

I just died laughing at this pic! Actually reminds me of pics me and my friend took on a miniature golf course! We were on all the animals posing.

Money is paper 🤷🏼‍♀️

agree 30 run in with police that was rich people justice . ive been in police work 35 yrs. seen it

He made that paper work

Dad came to the "rescue" again. Most of the time, in cases like this, a fat envelope of cash handed to the right cop just makes it all go away.

The paper was green so they let him off the scene.

The same part that f*cked me up too. I can’t even begin to imagine. So sad. 🥺

@@604eign im all three 🤗✨

Me too! The horror of not being able to move while waiting to be run over. Terrifying!

I had to literally pause the video at that part and walked out of the room to stop myself from crying. He watched his best friend get murdered and then having himself being horrifically killed the way he did. 😭

Dude is sick.

God truly horrific 😔 completely psychopathic

He had brain damage, it's not about evil

@@Mutantcy1992 If Hitler had been mentally ill, would his actions not be evil?

And in hell for eternity

I blame the stupid ignorant rich parents that spoiled him and let him do whatever he wanted and always bailed him out of trouble and named him Cosmos and didn't keep a close enough eye on him.

At first I didn't know how to take his breezy and lighthearted presentation when the subject matter is so dark and serious, but you're right, his balance is perfect. I am SO glad I gave it a second chance because he's an awesome narrator and his vids are high quality. Plus he's just being himself and not putting on a TV style way of speaking. Pure awesomeness. Love you Mike!

I agree 100%

Some youtubers who try to make jokes during true crime just come across as really disrespectful and ignorant (buzzfeed unsolved) but Mike still manages to act respectful and treat the crimes themselves seriously.

Yes!!!

plus he uploads frequently! how does he do it

That's why it needs to be legalized.

It's not the pot, it's the certain individuals smoking, selling the pot. Imo.

I dont know how someone could do that to another human being. Pure evil.

@@adamiliescu7891 Humans are the only true monsters sometimes.

Spoiler alert....

@@abelis644 Not sometimes. Always. This kind of savage cruelty is reserved for the fleshy virus aka human race. Disgusting.

CalQaida why is the response to things like this always “humans are the real virus”??? do you think the victim was not also human???

That is literally the shit of night terrors

Omg shoot me in the head again if i didn't die the first time but run me over with a backhoe while im looking OMG THAT TERRIBLE

I got sick listening to that part. Of all the crime interviews I have ever heard this was by far the worst. Or it made me cringe the worst, anyway. :(

It's horrifying to think he actually stopped screaming when he was about to be run over... I always imagine screaming till the end (Hollywood also always shows these scenes this way), and to think of the terror he felt... he was so resigned to his fate, that he gave up and stopped screaming... this is gut wrenching for me to imagine being in that situation

@@RU-vid_is_full_of_trolls my guess is at that point he just started praying to himself.

@redloiyu654jay Or Cosmo Kramer?

Waddup Big Perm!

Cosmos are spaced out

Cosmo came from Cosimo, Italian name like his root....

This is honestly what kept popping in my head throughout the video lol.

He's Jewish. You're not allowed to say ANYTHING about him, or his parents, or it's anti Semetic. You got that?

Oh wait... what’s this!?

@Carol Bogdanowitz i believe hes going off the first name of cosmo. But also....you can be italian AND jewish at the same time 😝

European Truth His last name Dinardo sounds italian 😂

I’ve had something similar happen to me and there was no money involved. Things do happen unfortunately.

So terrifying. Heartbreaking.

Nothing really gets me cause I've seen a alot of crime movies but all I could think off was like a horror movie scene or something that poor lad man

Yungin Kristof same here! How horrifically cruel...

Well, the pain he would of felt being run over would be other worldly. Your guts would shoot out of your mouth and even your eyes would pop out from the pressure. You would choke and struggle for air because of your crushed lungs. It would be a slow and agonizing death filled with pain and suffering. I've seen many deaths from vehicles and this is generally what happens when someone has their mid section ran over.

Exactly. Ugh.

Didn't sound crazy to me.

😂 he's pure evil

Right? If someone is willing to assault the main people who always have your back, why is it surprising if they have zero respect for other human life? Scary stuff...

No doubt.

I read an interview with the mom. She was gushing how “all the girls in Buck’s county wanted him”. Super cringe

Cognitive dissonance is *a good thing*. Cognitive dissonance *was missing here*. Cognitive dissonance is when you can't reconcile two mutually contradictory ideas that simultaneously appear in your conscious mind and you have to go through the effort of resolving such conflict. To simultaneously believe two (or more) contradictory things is not "dissonance". Dissonance is *a feeling of unease*. You can't feel unease if you're not even aware of anything being wrong. STOP MISTAKING THE CURE FOR THE ILLNESS, PEOPLE!

His mom ( I grew up with her) still struggles every single day. It’s so sad that these boys lost their lives to this nutcase. For what!

♡♡♡

Same :'(

This one has made me more angry and upset too. There was no reason for these boys to die and, more importantly, it could've been prevented at multiple points along the way. The other cases of men and women killing their partners/children because they wanted out of a marriage/to be with someone else, jealousy, money, sex...even strangers killing strangers because of the love/sex/money tropes...these base urges we understand to a degree and we can just call these people broken, sick monsters and move on. This guy...yes, he's broken, but in a way that is unfixable but also obvious he was a danger to himself and others. Of course he was enabled every step of the way...

@@PlanningInTheDeep are you from buck county..?

I live in Bucks County and unless you mean Philadelphia you're lying 😂

I think they're negligent, they need to pay up.

68Charger absolutely!

Their son is a total POS. Yes the parents should have had this freak institutionalized!!!

Probably had nothing to do with $$$ and more to do with being in denial that their son had anything the matter with him. Mental illness is a hard diagnosis to accept. It can take years.

1962pjh to be fair, you’re probably right, but it seems like their money bought him out of a lot of trouble that most people would have to face. He got slaps on the wrist, even though there was something deeply wrong. If they didn’t have the money to buy off the right people, he might have gotten the help he needed or it might not have been viewed as poor rich kid acting out.

What would u suggest they do?

@@queendelegacy09 Getting rid of their guns completely would've been a start. But most importantly, they needed to stop bailing him out every time he got in trouble. Dude never had to learn from his mistakes because of them.

Well his parents now have to live with the fact they let him go and now a couple of good boys are murdered and mutilated. His parents are hopefully about as devastated as the victims parents are. I say "hopefully" because if they aren't upset by their own actions, then they should re-evaluate their mental health and life choices. But that's just me, and if this happened because I made the wrong call for loving my messed up kid and got other kids killed, then I'd probably perform a slow suicide and make it up to the families till I died.

Wealthy family that thought nothing bad could happen, no consequences need to be taken, no punishment to be done...

Idk where he got the gun but, If you had of watched the end of the video they said guns weren't left laying around.... IDK??

Mark ran. tom got paralyzed.

Oh gosh, I know what you mean. My jaw dropped when he was describing it! Uggh that poor kid...got the worst of it!

Right! I’ve seen it so many times with killers during their interrogation or testimony. Agony and tears then go on about how they ruined their own lives.
