I grew up during this.. Was in elementary school. They had the streets shook. Shot someone near my dads job. He literally has shown me the woods they hid in. We couldn't go outside for recess. You had to go outside for my grade's class rooms so they made all of us (like 5 classes) have class together in the gym for a few weeks.
My nigga anyone that lived in the DMV area shit was real .I was in Middle school going to a Catholic school and we had morning prayers outside . Any white van come by we all ran lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
My family lived in the DMV (still do) and have stories of how when the DC Sniper went around, everyone was scared to go outside. And how everyone felt unsafe whenever they stepped outside. Kinda horrifying if you really think about it.
Was living in DC when these shootings was going on I was 6 at the time. All I really remember was my parents telling to not go outside to play or anything because the sniper attacks. It was a wild time believe me.
Mannnnn I was in high school we thought it was a van, everytime a van was seen we ran and ducked in some cover. Shit was off the chain. Rip to those lost lives fr.
Yeah he was sick. He did all this to get away with killing his ex wife and get his own kids back, so he basically adopted Malvo in the process and turned him into a killer.
The kid, Iran Brown, recently worked at my job, seemed like a cool guy, only got to talk to him once before he quit but I didn’t even know he was a survivor of the DC sniper until one of our other coworkers told me and showed me a video of an interview that Iran did
What was wild is that the first victim got shot right up the street from my crib. I was barely 2 and my fam was telling me about how scared the whole DMV area was while they were on the loose. Wicked ass times😔
I was 2 1/2 years old when this happened. My dad would tell me how everyone was scared to do everyday things because they feared they were going to be the next victim. It’s crazy to think that everyday I pass by the gas stations, shopping centers and bus stops where these psychopaths terrorized everyday citizens.
There have been times where I want to do something outside and my parents dont let me because of recent events but I wouldnt listen. This is one of those moments where if I wanted to do something and I heard about what was going on, im not stepping foot outside. This dude was quick scoping random people doing anything.
Josh the reason why the bullet when in her skull and came out her neck s because high caliber bullets are sometimes made to change angle when entering someone’s body to cause more damage. So the bullet went in, bounced around, and then went down and came out her neck.
isn't it crazy how you can die for doing absoulutly nothing ? this world is crazy, and like how one of my favourite youtuber says, This world is doomed.
Its crazy how they could've never been caught in the first 11 or 12 kills. They could've stopped there all those deaths would've probably went unsolved forever.
There was this story of a man who stopped at a rest stop to let his girlfriend use the bathroom, when he saw a man sitting in a car dogging him. He got a bad feeling about it and grabbed his gf and dipped. That ended up being the DC snipers.
I remember a story my grandparents told me about the dc sniper visiting their home. Ya’ll should watch the movie based on them as it shows how they really pick their victims. Yes it was random but thats as far as selection goes.They would get cordial with the victim first before heading off then later the murder happened as shown on the movie. this during the beginning of the spree before demands where made and they really just start shooting ppl left and right. Anyways they remember the teenager visiting randomly which was lee apparently, I don’t know what was said but when he heard my grandfather accent(Jamaican) i can assume he just left them alone because of course they found it weird that a random kid popped up then quickly leave within a few mins. DC sniper was hitting PG County too. Had us walking in zig zags and had neighborhoods lookin like ghost towns
I was 18-19 living in Virginia when this was happening. It was some terrifying shit to go to the gas station , school , shopping anything . No social media but Black Planet and MySpace lol it was wild .
Right, but who tf gone send they kids to school anyway 🙄 Y'all asses is staying home, get away from the windows, and watch TV on the floor. Crawl to the bathroom. That shit over wit.
Yall know that 17 year old is requesting parole 😭 a change was made in Virginia law that gives him a chance at parole since he was a juvenile at the time.
I remember this shit, in school we weren’t allowed to have recess outside until it was over. Ppl would duck down when they was at the gas station and they told ppl to move in zig zags just in case. Think I was like 7-8 years old.
my mom lived in the maryland at the time she told me how they couldn’t sit at bus stops, they couldn’t pump gas, they didn’t want to wait in lines and mfs was on the street walkin in zig zags, shit was craxt
Brah rage like u have no idea how we had to live in the dmv area when these fools were out here shooting folks. We had to walk zig zag going to school.
.223 is not a heavy round but with a large enough amount of gun powder and larger casings they would but a ‘heavy sniper’ round i guess but a regular .223 is just a common sporting round
Holy shit this is terrifying. Why is it always white vans? Rest in peace to all the victims. It's really messed up that some mfs in chat got no sense of empathy. I also find it absolutely wild that you can just be living your life with your family and boom. Someone is taken from you. This whole case is just fucked. Yeah no, I'm never having kids what the fuck??? They planned to do all of that and for what...
