Young Defendant's Awful Mom: Faces 35-Years in Prison! 

I wonder if judge Boyd thinks he has a HORRIBLE MOTHER?

well 5cent i disagree about the capitol crime,she should lose her children for sure,and it should be more prosecuted when meth is involved anyone whos ever seen someone tweaking knows that,and we can agree on that one

Do you even know that capital offense means that means life or death penalty 5C?

@@krdelux3919 yeah, I know that. I was being hyperbolic. I think it should be a serious crime though, given how many kids have been harmed by drugs.

@@bretluyet1896 yeah, I agree. I was being “over the top.” It just frustrates me to no end that people feel okay opening up their kids to drugs. It’s disheartening.

Who knows maybe he got on drugs because of his disgusting mother.

And rightfully so. Like who does that?! I’m a mom of 2 boys. One is 15. I could NEVER imagine doing any drugs with my child. Especially meth.

@@morganmua5681my ‘boy’ is 29. I’ll still have conversations about cases I hear of people who die from drugs with fentanyl in it. He’s never tried anything, and I warn him now is not the time to ever try it. I also send you tube stories of it happening to my daughter to watch with her 14 and 13 year olds sons - not to take anything anyone gives you. I’m in my 60s…what the world is facing now is scary.

🤗

And she is so pretty too!

I completely agree. In the handful of videos that I've watched here on RU-vid of this judge in the courtroom, she's consistently very informed on her cases, thourough and professional. She's awesome.

Absolutely! May God continue to bless her and her love ones

I was crying at the end. First time that young man heard words of love and healing.

It was the first time, I’m sure, he heard words of the ultimate love and healing he can find

She probably melted into the carpet.

​@@Monica0978No, she's just down there on her hands and knees digging for the rock that dropped out of her purse when she stood at the podium swinging it around.

You cant ...because she has her nose to table snorting a line

@@TwinSister1957 Sadly, you are right.

I would hope I would be as gracious. I’m so glad she told him about salvation

@@laurajercha9587i agree with you, in a way. i think it's just that salvation is a little more complicated than what a lot of us are led to believe. i believe that salvation is what you find. i don't think the prodigal son would have gone to hell if he'd never come home. i also think plenty of people hide their cruel nature behind a churchgoing facade. salvation isn't a reward for going to church and wearing a cross, it's something you can find here in earth when you walk with god. i'm hopeful that this moment of kindness and empathy will show him a side of humanity he never thought he would see. maybe he'll want to emulate that. and in that way, she will have saved him. for all the time i hang out with god, i know i wouldn't be able to show my father's murderer that kind of grace.

Agree! It was so impactful every time Judge Boyd said it.

Mom walks into court like she’s all that. She is all about herself. She is a nut case.

Lol she hurt your feelings. That made me laugh 😂 But I get what you’re saying. Not much would be harder to hear, if you are a mother.

@@bangbangboogie8671 It really is true. I am an honest person - blunt is too harsh - but I try to be as up front as possible with people but I have learned that many people are too afraid to speak openly. They all just “want to get along.” Make no waves. So I was surprised at how far the judge took it. She got real for real! I was taken aback but happy because that’s what the son and his mother and the public needed to hear! Wish more people would get to the point and stop “protecting” people from the reality of their lives. 😀❤️

@@carlpotter007 Well, if there is no need then it doesn't help anyone to say something hurtful even if it is the truth. Somethings are best left unsaid. And when I say that I'm not meaning in what the Judge said about that so-called mother.

Heard you the first time

She uses it. He probably helped her get it. So she did it with him. She’s a pathetic parent for doing it. She probably thought she was the cool mom but all she did was guarantee her son would be a lowlife criminal.

If you ever get the answer please let me know so I can understand how my ex husband cooked meth with his own daughter and introduced his son to someone who led him into distribution to the Mex.Mafia-so grateful my children survived and reclaimed a good life-I will me er understand parents who do this! !!!!!

Oh she'll get pregnant with a fellow drug abuser and the cycle will start all over again.

I married my wonderful husband almost 27 years ago. My kids were 15,13 and 9 when we got married. I had been married to my kids’ dad for 12 abusive years. My husband loved my kids like his own and helped me finish raising them. He was such a great example of a step parent that my oldest son was comfortable becoming a stepdad. My husband’s son calls me mom and he is my son. He was 18 when his dad and I got married. Not everyone’s story is like mine but I met and married such a wonderful man. I am truly blessed. We now have 12 grandchildren and a great granddaughter!

@@grammar4341 Loved your story.

My husband and I married when my kids were 11 and 9. I told him when he proposed to me that he had to get their consent before I could give him a yes. So he went to talk to them about it, and they put him through the wringer! Asked him a ton of really good, smart questions before they approved him. They walked me down the aisle at our wedding... and then they stayed with us at the altar, because we took vows to them as well as to each other. We felt that if all four of us were becoming a family, we should pledge ourselves to them as loving parents, just as we did to each other as loving spouses. (We didn't invite them to make any back; that wouldn't have been appropriate for children, who should be free of such strict commitments.) Eight and a half years later, we've forged a strong team along with their father and stepmother that's raised them into young adulthood. My kids adore him and vice versa. If I hadn't believed he was the best possible person to help me bring them up with love and security, I never would have married him. I don't understand people who don't put their children first. I've done things wrong in raising them -- I don't know any parents who haven't. But my mistakes have been genuine mistakes, not negligence or callousness or selfish choices on matters vital to their care. If a parent can't be the adult in the household, they shouldn't have children. Adults don't do everything right, but at minimum they need to be able to provide for their children, protect them from unsafe people and situations, and teach them basic responsibility by example.

@@norarivkis2513 beautiful story! I also had my husband get my kids’ permission to marry me. My boys walked me down the aisle and our 4 children stood at the alter with us. Their dad has and always will be their dad. My husband and I are their parents.

@@grammar4341 That's wonderful. I was fortunate enough to have a fantastic stepmother when I was young, and I used the same terminology you do. My mother was my mother, and I didn't use that name for anybody else. I called my stepmother by her first name. But when I say "my parents" to anyone, I mean my father and her.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Very well❤

There’s no excuse for her to have done this to her child; she made a choice to destroy her son with her wicked, evil behavior, she’s going to have to answer to our sovereign Lord God, declares our Lord “vengeance is mines to take,” aleluya amen 🙏🏼

We'll some people grow up in foster care with no parents and raise kids well and don't abuse them.

People like that tend to not have any shame.

She doesn't have it in her to be ashamed.

It isn't possible to have a conscience in a drug induced haze.

​​@@terrilynn1110What an ignorant thing to say. Don't blame drugs for the poor choices that people make. Blame the people. I'm a recovering addict with 15 1/2 years clean. I always had a conscience. Drugs don't take away your conscience, they just make it easier to forget that you know what's right. If you're looking for a way to avoid feeling guilty for your choices and actions, that's what drugs will provide. If you're looking to escape the pain of other people's decisions and how they impacted your life, that's what drugs will provide. Remember that anytime you generalize in such a broad, sweeping manner, you're going to be wrong, every time, because no group is a monolith. People are individuals, with their own thoughts, motivations and experiences. Don't lump entire groups of people together or make statements about things with which you clearly have no knowledge.

I pray for a few things: - The victim's family to find peace. The daughter is strong and her finding forgiveness is a start; yet as she said, only Jesus can help her with that. 🙏 - The defendant's sister be removed from her mother's care FOREVER so she has a fighting chance 3. That the defendant seek repentance from God the Father and receive salvation from Jesus. It's horrible how he grew up, but he may see daylight again. But he'll have to experience a change and get help. I hope it's offered and taken. 35 year sentence, and he's a teen. Lord God in Heaven. - And his mother; I don't think she gets it. This is also on her. Please wake up lady. May the victim rest in Peace. Like the judge said, his prescence here is missed and who knows what else he had to offer this world. The same with this kid. So much loss in these lives. 😢

His mom is a mess and never tried to help him. She just got high with him. Rip to the victim.

What do you think she was using when she was pregnant?

I could see her struggling over whether she would tell the truth or not in response to that question.

yeah any more assumptions? you dont know her, do you? how can you know what she is with anything? gurl bye. facts over feelings next time

@@jemandjemand2362 Did you get your fee-fees hurt? Mind your own business, GURL. GURL BYE AND GET HELP.😘😘😘

@@jemandjemand2362 DID YOU EVEN LISTEN TO HER WORDS?? SHE SAID EXACTLY WHAT SHE FELT. No you didn’t. P.S. I live in Bexar County. She’s been on the local news and in the paper. if you listened to this video you would NOT get your ass frosted. GURL BYE 😂😂😂 get a life😘😘😘😘

i listen to her and now? anything else from you? have several seats. why should i care where you live? ahahahahha stupid@@Monica0978

Not everyone follows the religion you believe in though

She’ll be dead by the time he gets out.

​@@Woodman-Spare-that-treeHopefully.

Yah I agree.

That taxpayer funded vulture was just throwing out the speed brakes. He could care less.

​​@@Malama_KiI love it when ignorance is so overwhelming that it can be neither silenced nor stifled.

Re Bet that defence attorney was regretting calling her. What a loser of a mom Reply I was puzzled at that, it didn't do his client nor his own reputation any good to produce a witness that IMO made things look so much worse. He could have at least asked the mother to Wash, Wear appropriate clothes, Start addiction treatment as a result of this crime At least attempt to feign horror at the crime her son committed. I just hope the authorities make sure the mother is not allowed to be in the same county as any of her minor relatives

He also should have advised her to take the 5th

You guys miss the point of having her up there. It actually did help him. Judge Boyd could have thrown out the plea. The plea is only an agreement between defense and prosecution that prosecution won't ASK for more than the bargain says. If the judge thought it too lenient then she could say no and sentence him the way she wants to. Having the mom and step-dad up showed the judge how worthless his parents were in order to capitalize on the narrative that he had a bad childhood and upbringing. The lawyer is going to drive that home in order to make sure that the judge sentences him in line with the plea agreement which was minimum of 15 years and a max of 35. Seeing as he could have gotten life for his crime, Judge Boyd obviously heard what they were trying to show her and agreed to plea bargain, even though she made it the max.

There was a plea deal so I understand why he didn’t push further. Had this been a trial…..

look at him. he is a loser

Exactly

Well duh

Cap. That defense lawyer was trash, bro sounded nervous asf too, shaky voice, tons of stuttering, reasking questions ruining momentum. Horrible attorney, I wouldn’t pay him after all that

No one makes mistakes, they make choices. Umbrella Story.

Just horrible!😱🐞💙

And yet they are allowed to drink, do drugs, vote, drive cars, purchase weapons etc all before their brains are developed. They can't have it both ways: do all those things and when it goes wrong and someone dies say it's not their fault because their brains aren't developed.

I was raised by a horrible and abusive father. I made lots of bad choices. I never ☠️ anyone.

BS. Stop making excuses. We have many 18-25 year old males and females that are responsible and respectful to others. I know some children are negatively affected by their upbringing but everyone can ask for help unless mentally ill (has no cognitive ability to think rationally). No excuses in this case!

That's not true. It's a choice. My husband's childhood was as bad as a person's childhood can possibly be, in every way, but he grew up strong, honest, hardworking, and loyal. He made a choice at 17 to run as far and as fast as he could, and he did exactly that. He could have easily wound up like this kid, but he made the conscious decision not to. He's the best parent I've ever seen, and is so much more than the way he was raised. This young man had a chance, he simply chose not to take it.

​@@mellveeI see this sentiment a lot, but it's not a binary thing, not all criminals had messed up homes, and not everyone from a messed up home will be a criminal. But what you will find is the majority of people in prison had bad homes or mental health issues, it doesn't excuse their crime, no one is saying they shouldn't be punished, but we can acknowledge that having terrible parents and upbringing is more likely to put you on a bad path than having a happy childhood, I mean it's just common sense right?

About 20 times!😢

CPS is supposed to fill that role, I guess. Don’t know where they were on this one.

I hope he lost his business
