Must be so nice to be these victims and always remembered positivity. Better than living a meangliess life. And if you did leave life or was ended no one would know or remember you like a homeless person. I'm not joking... Especially those who live unfortunate lives that the general public blame it is your own fault then they are a victim if neglect and abuse and have no one.

Thank you Mr brodie I enjoy your videos so much if possible could you consider doing a video about murders in Leicester as I know we have a few off interest ie the green bicycle murder off Bella Wright it was a bit of a mystery for a little while plus I can't remember his name but near Bosworth Leicestershire a man killed his wife and tried to murder his step daughter and was on the gibbet for many years thank you Emma

One thing that amazed me more even than the existence of Speck, was "he spent a month in an oxygen tent, and therefore his brain did not get a chance to develop..." I thought psychiatrists had to have medical training too? Not enough oxygen in an oxygen tent? Dear lord! Worse, the muppet went on to continue that ridiculous tale.

Although that would be nice- it'll never happen. Most people are only "significant" to a small group of family, friends, and co-workers. Most are neither extra-ordinary nor "memorable" in any historical way....These serial killers, on the other hand, make certain that their actions in the world are, albeit depraved, "memorable".

Unsurprising that a woman named Corazon had a stronger heart than the authorities thought she might when it came to testifying. That photo of her walking to the courthouse says it all; he brutally tortured and killed her friends and colleagues, and she was going to make sure he paid for it. Good on you, Nurse Amurao.

Why is her name significant? She certainly was strong and courageous. We’ll never know how many women he would have killed if he had gotten away with his crimes but why is it more unsurprising than if she had been named Doris or Samantha or any other name? Do you believe the name Corazon is significant in some way which gave her more strength?

@haplessasshole9615
@haplessasshole9615 6 месяцев назад
@@vladtheimpala5532 Corazon is Spanish for "heart," honey. Most names have meanings -- they're not just arbitrary syllables strung together. "Vlad," for example, means "glorious ruler." The most famous Vlad, of course, was less than glorious, but be that as it may, many people select names which they hope will influence their children's futures for the better. Asian cultures are famous for it, which is why many fan sites for anime list name etymologies in character profiles. Incidentally, "Doris" is of Greek origin and means "gift of the sea," and "Samantha," obviously the female form for "Samuel," means "told by God," and is Hebrew.

I read an article about the doctors who reported their concerns about Corazon Amurao's mental stability, how they said they were worried she might lapse into some kind of psychosis under the pressure of testifying. In the article I read, it was stated that most of the doctors' concerns were based entirely on racist and misogynistic assumptions, saying how her being a woman of Asian descent made her more prone to mental fatigue and collapse than might be a white woman. What a load of crap! She hung in there like a champ!

She was quick-thinking and level-headed young woman. Without her, it is likely that we would never have heard of Richard Speck. He supposedly muttered "Must've been the LSD" when he was arrested. But I was a student a long time ago, and like almost all the other students in early 1980s UK, I've had some spectacular and some terrifying experiences on LSD, but I never even gave anyone a faint bruise apart from myself occasionally.

Madness has been with us since day one mankind walked the earth. During 1966, it was a year of madness. Vietnam war, crime, and mass murder. Whitman on the Texas tower, Speck in Chicago, and another in Arizona, Smith, who murdered four women and a baby at a hair parlor, shooting each in the head. He said: " I want to be famous like Speck!" He's still in prison. He was 18 at the time of the murderers.

She ended up giving me a rosary, the very one she had under her pillow all while attending nursing school, and the night of the murder of her fellow nursing students.

This crime stuck in my mind even after 12+ yrs later. And then even further on, I did in fact see the Bill Kurtis mini-documentary with that film footage of Speck and his buddy inmates getting high and etc. And was disgusted that he had been allowed to live and even have fun in prison.

@Smorgasboard I’m not sure how much you researched about the video of him or his time in prison,But don’t think for one moment Speck didn’t get some justice in prison! I take solace in the fact that Speck was crying like a baby in fear when he got to prison. Almost immediately he was attacked and gRAPED often, until he agreed to become a “prison wife” to convicts for protection. He was pimped out and forced to take illegal hormones to grow breasts, as to be more appealing to the convicts that had him. Specifically in that video he was made to wear black womens underwear and show the camera before being ordered to get on his knees give an inmate oral. You may think that his laughter and sick responses in that video meant that he seemed to have gotten off easy. But just know, Speck had come to accept his fate, but was not happy. All his family that he had depended on had long abandoned him. He was nothing more than what he had viewed women to be when he was out on the streets and probably worse. Had he not coward and surrendered to being tossed around prison bunks, surely he would have been massacred long before his death. But hey, maybe death would have been more just than years of torment and humiliation.

Being locked up for life is more of a punishment if you ask, and it is less of a punishment for the sometimes completely innocent families of these killers who might still love them. It also prevents the many innocent people from being killed unjustly. Bad enough that some are locked up for decades. Don't care if you call me bleeding heart or get mad. We don't have to agree.

The rage we felt at the time is still there . I hate it that he got medical care at Silver Cross hospital from nurses and had a good time at Statesville . This is also part of the pro criminal movement using any excuse from the side effects of drug use to vague childhood incidents dredged up . What ticked me off was psychiatry was used as a aid. It’s a movement away from normalcy as the expectation. He can rot in hell .

I was the same age, do you remember that horrible headline with all the pictures of them in a row? That whole situation terrified me, and I remember being afraid for years that something like that would happen to me. It was certainly a rude awakening to what the real world could be like.

Sometimes I feel like I'm "programmed" for compassion and empathy; I can't imagine what would have to happen-psychologically, developmentally, or otherwise-to take it out of me. But then I consider stories like this of people who just don't seem to have an ounce of it and I wonder if maybe it wouldn't take so much as I think. The bird anecdote upset me, especially. I think it's because, in it, Speck displayed the capacity to nurture and care for something delicate-and had no qualms about throwing it away without an ounce of emotion when it no longer suited him.

I remember the episode of Mad Men that vaguely orbited this event. It happened around the same time as some race riots in many places including NYC, and on the show it was used to illustrate how black and white Americans kind of lived in different worlds: the white New York women were worried about a single mass murderer hundreds of miles away, while the black New York women were worried about violence in their actual neighborhood.

@@oneoflokis Yeah, but on the show it was like, all of these white women in New York were obsessing over these murders that happened in Chicago, while their black co-worker decides to sleep at the office because she's afraid to go home because of violence that was happening in her neighborhood, in NYC, that the white people barely acknowledged, because it wasn't happening in their own neighborhoods.

What a "despicable," man Richard Speck was. I remember this case about how he horrifically murdered eight student nurses. My late mother was a nurse and these murders really affected me personally. I was thrilled to hear that they had one student nurse who survived this because she was able to testify against him for this horrific massacre. Great investigation and presentation, too. Take care 🦋

I was nine years old when these murders occurred. Back then, our family took two newspapers: the Los Angeles Times in the morning and a local Pomona paper in the evening, so we read about these murders morning and night for months. Speck was the first multi homicide I remember reading about and he dominated the evening news. I was just the right age to absorb it all. It was frightening.

I remember this case so well. And the early 1980s I worked briefly for an attorney in Winnetka, IL, who assisted the lead attorney who defended Richard Speck, the Attorney’s last name was Getty. The attorney I worked for had a 0:07 Anyway, he did tell me that he had had some interactions with Speck, and that he was a completely depraved and terrifying individual.
