- Nikolas Cruz’s brother is sharing disturbing stories about the alleged Parkland school shooter. Zachary Cruz, 18, has moved from Florida to Virginia after a few run-ins with the law after the shooting, leading him to believe he became a marked man in the Sunshine State. With the help of Nexus, a legal services charity, he is moving to Virginia to begin a new life. He showed a disturbing selfie of Nikolas to Inside Edition which had a gun pointed at his head. #InsideEdition
Brother arrested
Mother died
Father died
Targeted in his home state
And he’s still smiling
A fake smile.
Yeah. You can tell he's broken.
For real, that's an unbelievable amount of strength, this kid gonna have a good life with a mindset like his.
Gale Mara yea haha i thought about that maybe he’s a sociopath
The power of our God!
He most definitely was a target. $500,000 bail for trespassing?! Ridiculous.
He didn't even do anything.
@@Subfightr He went to the site that his brother killed 17 people. That's something - c'mon. What if Hitlers brother went to the site of the concentration camps less than a year after WW2? It wasn't smart for him to go back at all.
@@jedigreg4636 1. $500,000 bail is too much. They just said its usually $25.
2. His brother killed 17 people not him
3. He went to that highschool
@@jedigreg4636 He didn't have anything on him or they would have pushed for a felony charges!
Jedi Greg HE WENT TO THAT SCHOOL.
Zachary is a victim, too. For the police to mistreat him, because his adopted brother is a mass murderer is totally unacceptable. The Law Enforcement Officers who can't figure this out need to be ousted from their positions of authority.
100% agree
I agree with you, but would like to point out that Zachary was the biological half brother of Nikolas who was adopted by the Cruz family when they both were infants.
On a longer video about this, the guy from Nexus said that they think a judge in Broward County was to blame. I don't know how true that is, or if any police were at all involved.
They're just being racist pig cops. Pretty common in Florida, I'd wager.
@@Rose-dr6uo I don't think they have a biological relationship. I was listening for it. They were both separately adopted.
Talking to this kid for one second, you can tell he's NOTHING like his brother. He also had the biggest sweetest smile.
He's also not at all biologically related to the shooter. So any worry of genetic predisposition to mental illness or behavior problems is baseless.
Ha ur wrong.... If u didn't know He used to bully his brother with his friends at school... I don't know why ppl feel bad about this dude.... I don't feel bad at all...

@@yazminecaraballo8863 I’m pretty sure everyone has bullied someone in one way or another during childhood. Not an excuse to shoot and kill people Wtf??
Stop blaming him, he is his own person and deserves his life. Wish him the best.
Ur a lil late
Might want to tell the kid to stop making stupid choices in life. He’s making himself an easy target when he keeps breaking the law.
Maybe he shouldn't be trespassing or driving without a license? Seems to me he has a history of doing the wrong things and also admitted to not reporting all the obvious signs that his brother was psychotic.
It's not a thing of HeS hIs OwN pErSoN, man clearly knew his brother was crazy and is one of the main reasons what happened, happened.
Does he need attention??? He wants a fresh start by associating himself and putting his face on the news?? 😂 trespassing on the school property get out of here dude
So sad not knowing the DNA when you adopt. But you can’t blame one brother for the other brothers sins
"Just wants another chance". I'm sorry, is he the criminal here?
He’s no criminal. Zachary was the brother of the murderer.
Exactly he should not even hafto say that. I guess he did some minor things like drivning without a license maybe he meant that.
@@elinhagglund33 he didnt do much lol, went to the school to say sorry

@@finnholdenn ohh no i agree ive done more in my life. I just meant maybe that was what he meant. Hell no. I agree. He has nothing to need to say get a new chance. Its so sad being judged for what his brother did. Even though i would never ever ever ever say in anyway shape or form it is excusable what nikolas did. I still find his life very sad too. Being adopted loosing his parents, being alone. Its so sad even if it never excuses what he did. And zachary has absolutely nothing to repent for. Hell he is a teenager. Teenagers gets into normal trouble. The way they judge it now after what his brother did is so unfair. He seems to have a big heart. ❤️ I wish him all the best
He was 1000000% targeted and for them to say they think he’s gonna do the same is absolutely disheartening and very hard to hear some one say that about a young man that is unfortunately related by adoption and not blood to some kid that did one of the most horrendous crime there is
He is related by blood
Same mother different father! Fact!
@@saneara5784 Why does it matter? If a family member goes psycho it doesn't make the whole family psycho.
@@slimjim7411 didn't say it did
Related by adoption is more meaningful than related by blood. Nature vs nuture thing.
As someone who works in the funeral industry and has dealt with this type of situation, it’s actually shameful that they’re painting his brother as a potential school shooter with no cause. It’s not okay so threaten, harass, or blame someone for the actions of others. They’re going through their own hell living with the horrific actions their loved ones have done.
What does that have to do with working in the funeral industry no offense
@@wallflower21 … Because the families I dealt with were personally affected by this type of tragedy and violence? Context clues bro. Literally said I dealt with this type of situation in the industry in my original post.
i hate these "as a ...." comments so much man, it's like someone trying so hard to make a completely unrelated event about them somehow@@wallflower21
Poor guy, it’s so unfair that his rep is being ruined because of his brother.
Ikr its hard enough that he has lost both parents losing his mom just months before his brother killed 17 people i hope where he is now people aren't so narrow minded and accept him as his own person!!

@@herbertwest6003 thanks for announcing yourself.
Blessings to this kid. The world is cruel. Praying God protects his mind and soul.
I pity Nikolas, because all I see is a trump boy craving a father it never met. Zack is better, likely because of his genes not being so twisted.
Amen!! I couldn’t imagine the torment.
@@danbillington how can we be sure you won’t do the same?
@@danbillington ur thinking guilty until proven innocent in which case does this make sense? He isn’t responsible for the decisions made by his adopted brother nor is his influence. Clearly he wants nothing to do with him and live his own life so that’s how we know he will not do the same. He was even threatened by his own brother
@@danbillington If the system an others keep harassing him....then what; but he has not reacted
Sucks that he getting treated like that even when they’re not biologically related. Wishing him a good life.
Right. Says a lot about people.
He shouldn't be ostracized like that. Fyi, Zachary is biologically related to his brother Nicholas. They both were adopted together as brothers.
@@Knowledge_wisdomwins biologically as in they share a genetic relationship with the same parents as you just proved my point and said they’re both adopted which makes it impossible for them to have the same parents
@@christhelazzer They're half brothers that got adopted together
they’re half brothers
It’s unfair how he’s treated because of who he’s related too.......
Cain Film Studios that sad part is he’s not even related their adopted
Damien Is a ugly ass kid Still. It’s sad that because of his brother being a sadistic and deranged psychopath, he gets treated with the same caution and as if he’s the threat
Cain Film Studios Maybe it’s because they think his brother put a bad influence on him
Although it’s not that true
Not related at all so theyre not biologically similar
This kid is like a reverse Hulk. The more things that happen to him, the more he smiles. Respect.
Something tells me he’s suppressing a lot of emotion. He had some terrible stuff happen in very quickly in his life. He’s probably depressed.
"You will like me when I'm happy"
@@melissag1364 yea. Probably..

He is a victim as well. Ostracizing him for something his brother did makes you no better. I truly wish him the best.
You drove without a license. You own that one. But you're never responsible for the sins of others.

It wasn’t because of his brother it was because he was so called “black” and an orphan.
His brother had nothing to do with him trespassing and driving illegally. That's just an excuse.
@@user-gu6vf3je1dThey were NOT orphans.
$500,000 bail for trespassing is a weaponized legal system. The judge that set that should be let go.

How easy to destroy someone's life. Keep harassing him and he will end up doing the very thing you're afraid of. Smh

$500,000 bail and in chains for trepassing? Really Florida? Seems bullying takes place in more than just schools. I tell kids all the time not to bully others for one simple reason...the one you bully may just surprise you with a hail of gunfire someday.

What the hell! 500,000 bail for trespassing?! The poor kid!
on a public school where you'd think itd be ok, as long as its after school hours
I mean obviously there should be a bail for something like that. But 500,000 seems pretty intense... they only made his bail so high because of who he is.
@Philip Love Well I don't think he would do that since he wants to put it all behind him. He did say he wanted a fresh start.

That’s so unfair and disgusting. This poor young man lost everything and just wants a chance in this world. So sad

That's how this world works. people don't care about anything other than themselves really they don't care who they hurt or whose life they affect in the negative as long as they get what they want. it's so sad and the worst part is that everybody wants to look good everybody wants to tell people what they think they want to hear and they're such hypocrites because most of the people in this world who have a problem with other people for something do the exact same thing and honestly I think part of it is their conscience getting the better of them and that's why they act like that. People know this boy didn't do anything wrong they just feel like they want to punish somebody because something bad happened and they're not satisfied with the fact that the guy who did it is already being punished

I remember growing up people and teachers told me I was gonna be like exactly like my brother, my brother is doing life in prison for murder and still commits murder locked up, meanwhile I have a career and still attending college. People deserve Thier own chance at life.
Bless his heart. He seems like a super nice kid. I wish him only the best. God bless him always.
The video of him talking to his brother after the arrest is online.. I watched it and doesn't seems to be a bad guy.. You can tell how disappointed he was of his brother but also wanted to provide some support to him because he didn't wanted Nikolas to kill himself.
I agree all I see is compassion and empathy.
WELL, YEAH. he realized in that moment the person who he considered his brother now no longer exists, and went on a reign of terror taking out dozens more... imagine (if you have a brother(or sister))going to class or work one day and the next time you see your sibling is in the situation(in the interrogation room) where he was put in. ANYONE would react exactly how he did. he was simultaneously so flabbergasted at the situation while also realizing both of their lives will never be the same.
His brother should end himself though.
I cried like a baby watching that!!!
That video broke me
I feel genuinely bad for him. It wasn’t his doing. He’s paying the consequences of someone else’s action and it isn’t pretty
Wow this is just so sad, treating the brother like a criminal. Shame on you Florida.
This poor kid. 💔 I wish him nothing but the best. ❤️ He deserves it.
Good Lord. He lost his birth parents, his adoptive parents, and his brother went to jail for a heinous mass murder. And instead of showing this boy compassion, the community treats HIM like a criminal when he didn't do anything!? WTF, Florida!?

What the hell??? He's only the brother, and they're not even related. So unfair.
nikissu once they were adopted they became related
They're biologically related; they have the same biological mother, but different fathers. After the Cruz's adopted the first one, they found out the mother was pregnant again, and adopted the second.
xamyx Oh I see! Thank you for informing me! I didn't know that.
To exile him is still pretty harsh. It seems he's got a good attitude though.
xamyx they look nothing alike,what does the mother look like
Mr LDN Well, I don't look anything like my biological Half-brother, either, so that means absolutely nothing; I've also known a set of twins who looked nothing alike... As for what their mother looks like, I've never seen a photo, but Nikolas alleges she's Jewish, but that's no indication of what she actually looks like; some people presume that means she's Caucasian, but since Judaism is a worldwide religion, not a race/nationality, she could be anything.
This breaks my heart. He lost his mother and father, and now his brother is in prison for murder. He has no family left. He just wants to live his life.
Agreed
fr man
@Tiny Princess why do technical
@Tiny Princess Definitely not impossible, and given the circumstances wouldn't be the strange if he was in prison pre trial (trial is over now and hes convicted btw)
People go to prison immediately upon arrest all the time. Happens mostly in counties that don't have many, or very large city/town jails. No room at the town jail so they have to take you all the way down to the state penn.
But again, given that he is a particularly violent offender they most likely had him held at an actual prison, most likely in some sort of solitary or something.
They don't put people like him into little jails. They get transferred immediately.
Hell manage he's a jerk the reporter is making him look like it also
all that’s happened in his life and he still had a smile. That’s real toughness and having faith in the plan
The fact they use his past mistake against him when clearly he didn’t harm no one it shows that the world is a messed up place you can’t compare trespassing to a murder
Just because he's a brother to a psychopath doesn't mean they share personalities or goals
EXACTLY
It's so ignorant how the law is doing something so stupid that they don't even know better.

@E Boston We all do something wrong at a time. But not many have to endure the anger of strangers just because of his name. He did criminal stuff, so he is set on trial for it, so far, so good. But how is it fair that he is seen as someone capable of commiting a crime as horrible as his brothers rampage only BECAUSE his brother shot up those innocent kids. He is no murderer and till the day he murders someone he should not be treated like one. And nobody has to lay him stones in his way to get back on track. Thanks. 🤨
If I were him I’d probably change my name to distance myself as much as possible. You can see immediately that he is absolutely nothing like his brother.
I hope he's doing okay. With his brother's sentencing hearing going on right now he must be pretty conflicted. I wish I could hug him.
This the strongest kid I've ever seen in my life. Dont care
I feel sorry for him. Pretty much lost his whole family. I hope for him to have a happy and long life.
Same here
I watched the interrogation/interview of Nikolas last night & was really impressed by Zach & his heartfelt wisdom & compassion (detective let him in the rm to speak & allow hugs). For a teenager (or even early 20's) to have that much maturity & strength, to humbly apologize for past mistakes & encourage NC telling him he loved him no matter what... Clearly tough situation but gave NC a bit of the acknowledgement & validation he lacked so badly in life. Hurts my heart that he had to move away, making it difficult for in-person visits. NC def deserves consequences but there might be an ounce of hope for rehab w/ his brother's support. Prison is tough but might be the best place for structure, healthy meals & exercise, possible therapy & life skills training... in addition to preventing further harm to society. Wishing the best for Zach & healing for the victims' families.💔🙏💖
He shouldn't be treated like this as he never killed anyone, he's all on his own now
I hope he has a great life after what his brother has done
Fran can you explain why I’m seeing this four years later

This is so sad :'(
Such harsh penalties on a young man just trying to make sense of his life and what his brother did. .

Let’s see he got arrested for trespassing and bail set at amount that’s normally unheard of.
the he gets arrested again for driving with out a license, followed by the D.A. Saying he’ll do the same thing as his brother. Which he said he has friends and enjoys skateboarding.
Also if you watch the video of him seeing his brother in the holding room. He asked him why didn’t he talk to him, why did he do this.

Thank you for giving this young man a chance. I pray that he will have a bright future with th help of these people that hav taken him under their wings
His smile is full of nervousness and pain. He’s trying his hardest to be better than all of this and he is. My dude I hope all is well and life is making a bit more sense.
He has a nice gay couple to stay with...
My brother killed someone and got tried but to this day i still live in seclusion because of his actions. How easy for this guy to move away..if only i could have that option, i would have had a better adult life. Although i started a family only a few years ago, it still haunts me that my brother took another life.
I'm sorry. It is NOT your fault. I'm proud of you and hope you can find peace
The difference between you and zack is that you have empathy. I hope healing on you.

How does he not have empathy?
Arvind Vallabha I’m not saying he should or shouldn’t have empathy for his brother. But when you have a family member with severe mental illness who you’ve seen them do harm to themselves and then go out and harm others, it’s so very hard to not feel bad or sorry for them because at the end of the day they have mental health issues. No one can perform such atrocities and be in such a right mind.
Sorry to hear that
This kid has nothing to do with his brother and I hope he does well in life.
I hope Zacks doing good and living a great life! It's sad that he lost his entire family and then was treated like he was a bad kid when in reality, he was just being a kid!
They're not even brothers, this isn't even a genetic issue. Even if they were biological siblings there's no excuse to punish him for someone else's actions.
It doesn't change anything but they were indeed biological brothers, the adoptive parents adopted from the same mom. Thats why poor boy seems to feel very tied to nik, since he's his only known blood relative :( hope he's doing good now.
“ONE SHOULD NOT BE DEFINED BY WHO THEYRE FAMILY IS”
That would be a good thing to say to those attacking David Hogg because his dad worked for the FBI and his mom worked/works for CNN
I feel so bad for him, I can tell he truly cares and he's hurting.
This young man is not responsible for what his brother did. Regardless of whether they were or were not related by "blood".
If you want him to live a normal life why did You just tell the whole of the USA?
Joe lees i was wondering the same exact thing. Like i didn’t even know that was his brother. If i saw him on the street i would even look twice. This though. Hundreds of thousands of people will see this.
Joe lees exactly
I thought the same exact thing !! They said he moved to Virginia and everything that’s enough information right there to go sabotage him
Because his story is already out there.. I knew about his arrest shortly after it happened. He's all over CZcams.. common sense he wants to clear hair name buddy. By reading these comments he's done that. Good lord..
He’s saying one thing & doing another, I don’t trust him
It's insane that a kid who drove without a license and walked around his old school was put in shackles and tried in front of a judge. I didn't realize we treated the most petty if offenses so seriously....
But commit mass murder and they'll walk you out nicely with handcuffs.
Thats disgusting to target his bro.
"He just wants another chance" Bro what did my guy do 😭😭😭. Neglect his psycho brother? Go back to the site of a murder to pay respects and take in the reality of having no more family? I'm glad he left, Florida sucks and I'm leaving as soon as I finish college.
