"he lost many of his friends between 2017 and 2019"
damn what he do
"he would often heil Hitler"
oh
Lol
Adrian mistakenly said Hail Hitler...
@@cappsginny699 in case you really don't know, heil is the German word for hail.
😂
Funny dude...
I love how you started the video with a history of the victims instead of the killers.
*Yep!!!* The focus should always be on the victims. Sometimes I fear some degenerate who watch these videos may want to get attention so he/she may murder someone. Or after watching a lot of videos, they may become indifferent to death. This is why I love why this channel focus on the victims.
I love this method. It builds suspense and also gives the victims the transparency they deserve. Too many true crime content creators hyperfixate on the suspects and treat the victims as grey blobs devoid of backstories.
Me too.
@@HusseinDoha It shouldn’t tho. These series are about the killers, not about the victims. People follow these series because of the killings. Not because they’re fascinated about the live of the victims. I enjoyed the way he did it tho.
@@cristobalbalenciaga7295 agree, I'm not here to hear about the victims lives.
I live in Canada and obviously heard about this case…more than a few times. You’re the first person to describe the victims so well though. It was all about them in the beginning and it actually took me a while to realize what case this was because of that. Thank you. This is how stories like this should be told.
I agree 100%, I was born in and have lived in BC all my life and I remember seeing this story all over the news, thank you to OP for making this story more about Chynna and Lucas rather than the two extremely disturbed young men, well done :) My condolences to all families affected by this tragedy😢
It's nice to see so much positivity. Thank you.
My area was in lock down for a few hours cause of these 2 .. was crazy
Billy is so incredible. I cannot express how much recognition and respect and everything that he deserves.
man seeing lucas and chynna all loved up on each other really broke my heart.... you can tell they were excited for the future and loved each other very much
Same. They looked like such nice people too...
They actually look alike too. So sweet. Very sad
@@elsablue3646 Sweet home Alabama
Yes, the gas station hug was wholesome
Very tragic. Lovely couple.
Unfortunately, the RCMP treat the native populace in Canada extremely poorly, hence why Billy was never offered any vest, and initially blown off when he offered to help. They deserve better. Thank you for shining a spotlight on him, I had no idea how integral he was to what happened.
True, we get treated like shit. But mad props to the man though for using his normal everyday knowledge to his advantage. He was all over my Facebook feed for a week lol.
@@Nickie-Nick How do you get treated badly? Is it a case of ethnic profiling?
@@upstar21t stereotype, they are responded to differently if they need assistance from either police or medical care. If a native person is reported missing, they will never receive the kind of resources that other citizens would enjoy.
@@cbcluckyii4042 What about black and Asian people? Are they treated the same way native people are, or better or worse?
@@upstar21t I'm Asian and speaking for myself personally, I would say my many encounters with police were mostly pleasant (traffic violations, 80% of the time was let off with warning) in my youth they were pretty harsh but I think it had more to do with the area I lived in at the time which was low income higher crime rate area. A few of my black friends have been pulled over for driving a new car. With Asians I think you will find they have an easier time if they are fluent in the English language. Natives face a different kind of racism but it's difficult to describe. With black people I believe it is more ignorance/hate, and with first Nations it's dismissive and the attitude of "your own fault for finding yourself in this position so deal with it"
I remember this pretty white girl from highschool anytime I or my Indian friend went to her house and the father answered the door he would call for his daughter, "hon the Chinese food/taxi is here for you' have a chuckle. I actually found it funny, not the first time though.
I met Lucas and Chyna a few days prior to this... they came into the Thrift shop I worked at. I remembered them being truly in love, their demeanors were very warm and happy. I do hope for peace for their families ❤❤❤
billy is such a big contributor to the solving of this case. amazing work by an indigenous brother
Everyone talking about the couple but what about the grandpa dude. He looked so happy in the picture where he is fishing....
Of course that's very sad too. But I think people tend to focus more on the couple because they were young, ambitious and just starting their life together. It shouldn't take away from the Elderly bloke as it is all equally heartbreaking, though he had at least lived a good life and made it to a ripe old age, more than the other 2 will sadly get now.
What about scenery
Long vista..PEOPLE get so.caught up in dissecting what's appealing,can you imagining all that's made
Is opinion of 100
The reason is because they found what is so rare these days, love. And the last cctv footage was a glimpse into how affectionate they truly were. They had their whole lives ahead of them.
@@chezafelix1782 Yeah, seeing that scene, with the knowledge of what was about to happen, tragic.
So sad 😭
This one hit home for me, because I am from Vancouver Island. I was on a solo bike (Bicycle) tour that summer in the same area. A friend of mine called me out of the blue and warned me to get off the road now. He explained; there was someone killing people on the roads. This was news to me, and freaked me out. I did bike to the nearest town where I got myself a hotel and stayed for 3 days. While there, I watched the news closely; when I felt it was safe...I biked home. I did shed some tears; I felt so sorry for those people they murdered, It is such a shame. That being said, I was so thankful to be alive and that I did not cross there path...I would have been an easy target.
Glad you made it home safely.
Weird flex
Damn, that must of made you feel cold chills for sure after getting that phone call, good on your friend for letting you know aswell 👍
Glad you got you got home safe.
I lived in Port Alberni when this happened. Even worked with a guy who knew one of the killers (his kid was friends with him), it was a very tough time for everyone.
billy beardy’s part of the story worried me, i thought you were about to say he was the next victim:( thank god he helped with this case though, he is a legend
Well done, Billy! You're truly a hero.
Billy is such a great presenter.
I wouldnt call Billy's technics "basic". Low tech, maybe, but being able to read your surroundings that way requires knowledge and experience. The guy nailed it
I don't think basic was meant to be demeaning; rather in this case it's meant to be "well no shit sherlock" common sense when it comes to navigation, tracking, and reading wildlife. Stuff that a lot of people have sadly forgotten how to do themselves. Good on Billy and his community for keeping those skills alive.
I would take a person who knows the terrain, tracker and familiar with wildlife behavior over technology any day, bravo to Billy and his wildlife / hunting skills.
It is completely low tech, as in there is literally no technology involved. That isn't an insult at all, however. The man was that intelligent and skilled that without anything other than his own wits and brain he managed to read his surroundings accurately. It is a shame a lot of skills like that are dying out to modern technology really.
Billy is my youngest brother and he grew up hunting and trapping all of his life which is why he knows the land so well. I am very grateful the video acknowledged him for his time and efforts to help keep the community safe. Thank you.
@@marlenebeardy5415 ol then say hi to billy from argentina!
Your focus on the victims and their families is unique to the true crime genre and truly makes the weight of the crimes committed against them so much heavier.
I’m missing information on Chyna and her family!
its kind of annoying me, like dude idc LMAO
@@fialka39 Well, a lot of people care. So that's what that is.
@@seethingwalnut2628 why tho?
yea sure so much weight. Someone dies every second stop acting like you care.
Such a sad story...3 beautiful souls destroyed for no reason by two unhinged fiends, who took the cowardly way out. Well done, Billy...your assistance was invalueable..you are a star. I salute you and send my very best wishes. RIP to the three who were so cruelly taken.
Beautifully said.
While I enjoy most true crime, I've realized that the reason I keep coming back to your videos is the respect you show for the victims. You don't sugarcoat things, vlbut you also don't exaggerate details for shock factor. Every single case has been treated with honor and respect. Thank you.
I really like how your narrate these crimes. Most people do it with a dramatic flair or in a simple matter-of-fact voice, but the way you do it with a sense of sympathy and compassion for the victims is quite refreshing.
Yeah he does it where its more like Narrating the story of their life where you remember the small stuff, not like others where it sounds like they've just memorised a few parts from a news article.
Crime watch lol
@@buttmunch2670 exactly.
Yes!!!!!!
Yes!!!!!!
That CCTV footage of the couple at the gas station breaks my heart in to a million pieces :(
Why?
@@azazello1784 It was the last time they were visibly seen on camera together, the last images their families and friends would see. They were totally into each other and about to go off on an amazing adventure.
they seemed so happy :(
@@Tanyah-
Exactly! And it reminded me so much of the RV trips I took with my husband as a young couple...the last thought on your mind would be that some kids are going to kill you, for no reason at all, soon.
You and me both, my friend! They looked so happy and in love, with their whole lives ahead of them. Unfortunately they crossed paths with the wrong people and their future was stolen for no reason at all...
Heartbreaking.
For context as to how awesome Billy is, the RCMP played a major role in putting kids in residential schools (places to systematically eliminate First Nations, Metis, and Inuit culture where many children died and many were also horribly physically, sexually, and mentally abused) but instead of declining to help Billy went and showed them up with exactly the skills the RCMP once were involved in the attempted elimination of.
well said!

While I agree it is wrong, Canada has a SERIOUS problem with bringing up the past. They're are plenty of tragedies and injustices of the past, regardless of what country you live in.
The first Nations of Canada get plenty of things for free , tax free, free housing and schooling to name a few, they get constant apologies, and Millions from the government. Do you know how many people around the globe go without even an apology for what's happened to them, their families their countries ?
Fuck sake Canada. Move on already
Add the ongoing and far too frequent cases of racism driven mistreatment for First Nations people by police.
I’m canadian and followed this story on the news as it unfolded in addition to watching multiple videos about it and not once did I hear about Billy or the raven. RIP to all the victims - thank you for sharing this story and telling it the way you did.
I feel so bad for Leonard. He looked so nice and approachable, he will be missed.
Looked like an aged hippy. Mad wisdom and peace within those eyes. And I don’t say that off of pictures a lot. But like you said , one can easily tell.
@Cools DOODS no subs and no photo ohhh you poor thing sitting on CZcams trolling people with no life ):

Billy Beardy!! What a legend of a name.
I like the jojo reference
Who in the world is Billy Beardy???
Billy Beardy a Gigachad
Billy literally solved the case … wow ! I’m glad he was recognized …
hope all three victims are at peace . This was very sad ..
Wow! Billy is such a cool dude! Using instincts and skills to solve problems. This is some crazy stuff. Absolutely astonishing!
I really appreciate the care you take in talking about the victims, and humanizing them in order to keep their memory alive.
billy deserved so much more. he literally solved the case, did /all/ the hard work, and they didn't offer him a goddamn bulletproof vest while on an open vessel in an open area, hunting murderers with rifles, nor did they give him credit until effectively forced to.
Billy didn't need a vest cause he was already too powerful
First Nations people deserve more respect.
What if a bullet hits the head, what does a vest do.
Bars-turds !
wow cry more racism why dont you
This was absolutely so sad and extremely senseless murders. Luke and Chyna looked like they genuinely loved one another and so excited about their future together.
Vampire Queen : So very true. Fate can be cruel. And nothing one can do to escape fate.
@@fredajordan5704 It truly is so heartbreaking and I'll never understand why people do the things that they do?!!!
it's so confusing, because the 2 killers don't look dead inside. they're probably not even psychopaths. it's a complete mystery why they suddenly decided to go on a killing spree.
@@vampirequeen953 Yes, and sometime there is no reason for a crime. Maybe boredom or thrill seeking. Yet, to do what they did they have a tremendous amount of criminal energy.
@@eVill420 I only know one thing, these were 2 brutal monsters.
"Caramelized by golden sun" is a worthy phrase for any literature classic.
Pretty wasn't it! 🌅
My heart breaks for the 3 victims. They all died doing what they loved but the 2 killers were so heartless to just end their lives because they could. Tough men to attack unarmed people & then take their own lives so they didn't have to face justice! What a legend Billy.. amazing efforts to bring this ordeal to a close. Adrian I love your videos. You are my favourite true crime CZcamsr... your so kind & just present the facts & are so considerate of the victims. Keep up the amazing work 👏👍
They should have started by killing themselves. May they rotten in hell. As for the victims, God what pointless deaths. I hope they are having many adventures in Heaven. 🙏🏼
Billy needs an award seriously, cause he did the job for the investigators.
He was given an award
Shows that cops and investigators dont try everything, they only do the required basics and then give up
Bit sad if we have to solve our own cases. No wonder killers think they will get away with it
@@kelseydoyle3498 he was recognized by his peers at Keewatin Tribal Council. The government of Canada should rightly honour him as well.
@@BUILT2KEEL it's a scenario that is getting worse and they rely on the public and social media to do their jobs 🙄!
The way you described him made him sound like a regular guy and then “he would often heil Hitler.” I wasn’t expecting such an extreme left turn there.
More like a right turn...
Extreme right...
Hitler was a socialist so its extreme left.
@@itr8247 nothing about hitler or his ideologies was even remotely socialist, what are you on about
@@itr8247 Hitler outlawed socialism. They even started rounding them up and executing them before Jewish people.
I live in the Yukon so this case hit close to home for me as there was constant updates putting people here on high alert. You are the only one I’ve seen to cover this story and did a phenomenal job with highlighting details and acknowledging Billy for his amazing skills to assist the RCMP with their investigation. Well done!!
You're an incredible storyteller. Thank you for spreading awareness of these events and telling the victim's stories.
I love how much focus you put on the victims, giving them such respectful recognition. So many channels focus on the killer, but I would much rather remember the victims and have their stories live on. RIP Lucas, Chynna and Leonard.
Bro their stories are so boring I've already forgotten them lol... but better that than be remembered as a monster
Agreed, the kids who did this were fried units, they had somthing wrong to be killers. sucks but its on them.
Yes Dorianna 🙏🏽& did u notice a resemblance between the 2 men, when they showed the teacher's younger years? Very sad😏🦋🌷
@@GG-mk2ih As a family member of a murder victim how wonderful of you. I always knew our family members lives don't matter but you really pounded that in, happy to know caring about our family members lives is just a sign of being a virtue signaling millenial.
I agree, I like this channel over others for how he humanizes and commemorates the victims.
Yes, we are all here listening about murders, human brains are strange, and we often seek out things that make us sad or uncomfortable, and puzzle over things we do not understand.
This does not mean we want to dehumanize or forget the victims. For a lot of us, it's comforting to think that we can remember them as people with lives and loved ones.
I vaguely remember hearing about this but never heard of Billy. Thankfully he was there to help, and I wish he received more recognition.
here in the USA he is not as well known
@@watchdog8058 He should have a statue at the UN
Here in Australia, I don't remember him being mentioned.
I don't think Billy cares about public recognition. I think he did what he did, because he's a good person.
@@themaxster7798 thats not the point though
Canadian here 👋
this manhunt captured the nation. It's worth pointing out that this was way up north with extremely difficult terrain to move through.
Billy Beardy is a real hero and tells the story in a way you'll never forget.
Great job Adrian!
So an Australian met an American in Croatia named Chynna.
So to move closer to Chynna in the US, the Australian guy went to Canada.
May they RIP. I'm glad to see you showed Billy's role in this case, I've seen a documentary about this case and he was an amazing man using his skills as a native man. Billy deserves love as does the Families of this crime and victims.

He died?
There should definitely be a song called the balled of billy beardy.
He saw a crow and that let him know I said a whoa whoa billy found dead people just like Crees do. Oooh ooh ooh
You have great sensitivity Adrian, I do hope that researching and presenting these dreadful crimes on a weekly basis, that they don't weigh you down too much, it must be very difficult to deal with all the information you have to sort through in order to give a factual and sensitive presentation. You do an excellent job, you are very caring. I hope you take time out and care for yourself. You are the best crime presenter, because you are kind, empathetic and thoughtful, and in today's world that's rare. Thank you.
I am a clinical psychologist from South Africa with an interest in forensics and love the empathic way in which you present your crime stories. My favourite crime channel for sure👍
Billy Beardy is SUCH a great name. It fits an amazing human being. The RCMP did him dirty.
Thank goodness for Billy’s intuition and skills. I hope that the government has rewarded him deeply for his intense help during this case.
The didn't even give him a vest I sadly doubt they compensated him for his intuition.
@@ravioliravioli6175 what a ridiculous oversight from the police and military that he was helping. What a damn shame
Unfortunately Canada has a long record of dealing unfairly with our indigenous population. I hope that he was properly recognized for his help and knowledge.
@@CiderDivider That's par for the course with how Canada treats it's native americans.
@@NyxyPixie I looked into Billy’s story following this incident and while I can’t find anything regarding Canada’s involvement, he was given honours from the Keewatin Tribal Council including an eagle feather and star blanket.
What a wonderful soul Billy is. To dedicate so much of his time to helping, just because.
To share his knowledge and feelings instead of just escorting them.
I live so close to where those three were killed. I followed this case from the start to the finish and had no idea of who the victims actually were. I remember being worried for my loved ones who adore camping in the rural parts of BC where this happened. I discussed this with my parents, made my dad take his guns. This isn’t the sort of thing that happens here. Crime is inherently common, tragically so. People go missing sickeningly often. But spree killers? We just don’t see that. We see drug crime, gang crime, the occasional serial killer, and of course the highway of tears.
But you know something? Us Canadians, we aren’t as nice and friendly as the world believes us to be. There’s a true darkness here. And for a country as large as ours with a population that’s less than many large cities like Tokyo or Mexico City, we have some an inordinate amount of truly evil people.
My husband, in his youth, was best friends with a murderer and probable serial killer. I’ve met Cody Ledgebekoff, I live in the same town he murdered women in and went to the same school as one of his victims. One of the girls I went to high school with is in prison for gruesomely slaughtering people’s pets, and when they arrested her they discovered her notebook detailing her plans of moving on to homeless people 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙡𝙙𝙧𝙚𝙣. She spoke to me once about how she was angry at a girl, her friend or sister -I can’t remember- and her plan was to go to this girls’ school and “kick the shit out of her” and she was laughing as she was demonstrating to me how she would do this. She had inserted several razor blades in the soles of her combat boots. I regret this, but I said nothing to anyone about that. I never saw her again after that, and a few years later I was reading about her in the news.
There’s so much more. Too much. Be wary in Canada. Don’t trust the people here too easily and don’t believe the stereotypes.
I remember seeing the dad of one of the killers saying he knew the next time he sees his son he would be dead and was crying , my heart broke for him
That was bryers dad. The whole media turned on him and blamed him for the killings despite the fact Bryers mother was a fruit loop and Bryers dad was basically the only person there for his son helping him find a job etc.
Also the stupid thing is Bryer had his mobile data on the whole time and the cops could've easily found the two of them within days not weeks.
Yeah i remember watching that global news segment aswell.
The media were horrid to that man, pitiful behavior by them IMO.
@@OneBadAssMoMo pitiful or typical?
@@ioiwut4874 spot on, that was my exact thought! If you watch Crime Beat, about Canadian crimes, you will very soon learn that the correct word is “typical” 😡
Beardy is awesome! He did what the RCMP couldn’t. The lack of respect for the indigenous people here in Canada is so disappointing.
Please don’t paint everyone with the same brush. A lot of Canadians respect Indigenous peoples greatly but it’s always the negatives that make the news.
@@DaniHMcV i thinkthey meant the authority
Hell yeah native people are the best. Smart, some even say they created the game of hockey. I have native freinds, and grew up with them. Definitely alot of respect and understand the struggle of government treating them like shit. It's sad, I myself a Canadian get this same treatment. Canada is not home to me anymore.
Speak on it.
Dude I live in Manitoba. Cut the crap.
Billy MOST DEFINATLY deserves recgnition,thanks and an award. Thank you Billy for all that you did.Clearly you are a great and humble man.
I've subscribed to you recently and have been obsessed. I think what I love most about your videos is the way you breathe life into the victims. You share who they were, how every living person matters and how they can have a positive impact on others. I think that sets you apart from a lot of true crime stories that focus mostly on the crime itself.
I had heard about this ordeal, even when it was daily news, but I never knew the part about Billy Beardy at all. And that seems like a crime in and of itself, since he was the one who knew where the police ought to look. Thank you for including his and his wife's parts of the story.
So true
When you talked about the old man who's a botany professor it really hit me because my mom too is a botany professor, she's in her late 50s and often takes solo trips to the natural areas like woods, nearby lakes, etc Inorder to relax and sometime even collect rare specimens for her students. Her University too is about an hour away in the outskirts and she drives there alone.
It made me scared for her life
I understand completely, though your mum sounds like a really cool person i must say.
She is far more likely to be in a car accident or some other benign injury that murdered by a random stranger.
@@Cheepchipsable
I doubt that will make her child feel better...🙄
Death will come anyway.
Love how you pay tribute to the victims at the end. Rest in peace to those 3 beautiful souls ✨
I totally know what you mean, but I wouldn’t describe Billy’s tracking skills as ‘basic’. It’s super advanced and requires a lifetime of experience.
I can’t believe how quickly you’re growing. You were at 9k when I subbed and that was only like 2 months ago. You deserve every view you get. Your videos are great, and like I’m so proud of you as a viewer.
Third that 😊
And dont forget m, 4th ☺️😉
yes 164k and this guy earned it, happy to be a part of this channel
It's actually really impressive considering there are many other true crime channels that have covered all of these cases for well over a year now, yet there's still a fan base. I follow That Chapter, MrBallen, Disturban, This Is Monsters and a couple of others. I know of ALL of these cases Coffeehouse Crime has covered and have done for ages. Yet here I am 😅. His delivery is very good 👍
@@kiiingst0n Right? Like there’s SO MANY. But Adrian’a channel feels perfectly suited for the casual listener. Like someone that listens to podcasts but wants a visual aspect to glance at. I listen to true crime while I draw and most other channels feel like I need 100% of my focus on it because suddenly the music will tense up and I’m like “wait what’d I miss?” but with Adrian his delivery is very consistent and I’m able to listen without having undivided attention.

i think "basic" is the wrong word to describe native skills. Knowing the behavior of wildlife is no simple matter, but requires learned traditional knowledge in combination with years of experience in the natural wild.
i think he meant basic as in skills that most indigenous peoples may have learned as children. from his tone, i believe he didn’t mean any harm, rather he was attempting an explanation about how wildlife skills should be common sense!
That's not what he meant, idiot. 😂
@@Rainsnowreadysetblow why so hostile?
Meh. It doesn't take long at all to learn about bird behavior and calls. Many hunters utilize it.

Is this not basic? Aren't Ravens synonymous with death?
I've been binging your channel from the beginning and I like this new addition of the memorial at the end with the photos. All three of these people look like beautiful souls.
I cry during almost all of your videos. You really put weight on the wonderful people who were lost. I love hearing all the special things about them and how they lived their lives. But it really tears the heart out. This is only a small fraction of the pain their loved ones must feel. I also thank you for giving dear Billy the credit he deserves. I’m grateful that people like him are in this world.
There was also a very close call with another potential victim on a remote part of the highway. The man was driving from Alaska to somewhere in the US and stopped along the Canadian highway a little while after crossing the Alaskan border into BC to sleep. He was in his back seat about to take a nap when he noticed a truck pass by slowly and a person with a long gun exited and started to come up behind him while the truck he got out of attempted to be him in. He was able to jump in the front seat and drove around the truck before he was totally boxed in and drove straight home. It wasn't until days later when his friend pointed out the news story that he realized just how lucky he was to be alive. I don't remember his name or what state he lives in but it is quite a harrowing tale to say the least.
Close shave indeed. I can't imagine what his reaction would have been at the time, and how he managed to save himself from 2 killers.
yep that's true, Ken Albertsen is the name of the man
True story.
That man was so lucky to have noticed those little bastards!!!
I travelled alone on that circle route from my home in Victoria up to Prince George, the sad Highway of Tears, Terrace, Dease Lake, Watson Lake, Liard Hot Springs which is just park, with incredibly drlightful hot springs, then down to Fort Nelson, Chetwynd, etc...
It is absolutely beautiful up there and the people are amazing.
I know exactly where the murders happened... I was in those same spots! Alone, with my dog for 6 weeks...
I'd do it again in an instant.
That’s why I carry, you never know what can happen.
Wait…. Are you trolling us? How can you drive anywhere from Alaska?🤔
Not enough credit to Beardy, that man is incredible
I agree with all the comments, Billy is definitely the hero. Plus with his local knowledge, he could solve the issue with acumen and clarity. Well done and with great appreciation to you and him. Your channel is so respectful and kind to the victims.
I love how you told this story. You make it exciting! Thankful for Billy Beardy and his knowledge of the ways of the wild animals.
Probably best that the killers did die. Knowing the Canadian justice system, they probably would have been set free in less than 10 years or so.
Detros : Absolutely.
You're not wrong. They let out a killer who decapitated someone and ate organs on a public bus out after 13-15 years. Canada does it's best to help criminals, just watch their interview where they keep asking every 4min if they want a lawyer+water. Ask once or twice, then fucking get on with it. In Canada 1 innocent life is worth less than the life of the criminal who took it.
@@Despond sorry, but these hot takes help no one. Though I agree our justice system needs changes it’s is not changes to create a more penal based system, particularly for those suffering from serious mental health issues. I noticed you left that little bit out of your comment regarding the Greyhound Bus incident to allow for better confirmation bias that the system is too soft. Had these two been caught alive they likely would have faced serious jail time, more than ten years.
Pretty sure anyone eating organs are mentally ill
@@chozer1 yea but he was let go and now walks around free and has since changed his name.
These guys lived 15 minutes from me, I remember how horrified our entire community was. RIP to the three lovely people who perished.
I'm glad you were safe.
Your community must feel awful after all this.
Such senseless violence and loss.
I used to work as a vendor and was in the Cabela's store in Nanaimo BC on the same day the killers purchased a rifle and ammunition on their way to the ferry. Not at the same time, a couple of hours before they were there, but still creepy.
I know you get this a lot, but I appreciate you giving the victims an equal, or even more, spotlight to these videos.
I love your dedications to the victims. It keeps the mind going down a rabbithole of sadness but rather reminds you of the lights they still gave the world.
The clip at the gas station with Lucas and Chynna having that warm embrace was heartbreaking, hurt like hell to watch that tears flowing down.
As a Canadian, I remember this like it was yesterday. The entire country was on edge
The entire Country was very angry also
You ever heard tell of the mad trapper of rat river?
‘the entire country was on edge’ ........not really
@@rsahota5325 for a little bit there was a pair of serial killers moving across the country. Until the Manitoba part of the story, they literally could've been anywhere, no one knew where they were for a time.
I've been on a bit of a binge of your videos today. Amazing archival footage makes your vids stand out from the rest. You really do a good job putting these videos together. I may not comment on them all but I've subbed and like each one I view. Great work!
Thank you for covering this. I remember this case absolutely dominating the news cycle.
Billy the MAN.
Billy is an OG.
Badass Billy.
Billy the blessed.
Billy Billy Bo' Billy.
"He'd often heil Hitler, share his extreme ideologies, and started to make his friends uncomfortable after showing them pictures of him in a Nazi armband and talking about how cool it would be to play out shooter games in real life" Yeah that'll definitely make people uncomfortable to say the least...
He clearly had no real friends. Idc if I've known you for 20 years, that GIGANTIC red flag right there? I'm telling someone, anyone, EVERYONE. That's beyond making someone uncomfortable. That's a clearly unhinged individual. All too often these criminals could've been stopped before they started if someone would've just taken them seriously! I get all the edge lords and shit talkers make it hard to discern the true wack jobs but...damn. That's a LOT of evidence these two were seriously considering doing some ef'd up stuff. They set out to find work and were like "Damn...no jobs...wanna go on a killing spree instead?" "Sure!"
Edit: Just based off the photos you can tell Bryer is a complete beta follower. He's never in front. Always behind and to the side. Cam makes all the decisions, drives the car, pays for things, most likely made all the plans as well. Bryer was just following him like a lost puppy the whole time. He offed bryer in the end then himself. Idk...cam is the real monster here. Not saying bryer isn't a POS but cam was calling the shots. This was his show.
I see all the hard work you put in your stories, want to say thank you!
Thank you for putting so much focus on the victims and their lives. While these videos about killers are interesting, it's so nice and important that you show both sides of the story.
Even though we aren't brothers, as a fellow Australian I feel for the loss of this man. Seem like a typical aussie male. Just a good all around bloke, that would of given you the shirt off his back.
"Just a good all around bloke, that would of given you the shirt off his back"
But not the land that his family stole from the indigenous peoples of "Australia"
@@olilumgbalu5653 I'd report my comment to you bum hahahahahahahahahahahaha
@@olilumgbalu5653 want me to re type it so you can re cry with you poor attempt at race baiting? Didn't like the truth or just a lil baby?
@@olilumgbalu5653 and where do you live? I'm pretty sure that the same can be said for the majority of countries.
@@olilumgbalu5653 our land now, you should have defended it better... No shirt for you!
I'm so glad to see the accent of this video being put where it should: with the hero untrained voluntary that dedicated his spare time to search and find the killers, Billy Beardy, and with the victims of this random attack
I love your true crime documents. Your empathy for all victims is moving and you do crimes of all over world. Please keep them coming I watch a few every evening. Thanks for sharing. Each one is very sad but interesting
I love how your videos are a commemoration of the victims. It makes the difference with other crime videos. Thank you.
I wish that people wouldn't say that "they died doing something that they loved." No, unfortunately odds are they were terrified in their final moments and that's rough.
So true
What they went through must have been terrifying
For what? These sick men's idea of fun
Horrible :(
Well yeah but anyone with tact wouldn't say that as it helps no one and only makes loved ones of the deceased feel even worse. Everyone knows how they died; their family will be thinking of it for the rest of their lives.
it’s just a coping mechanism, people don’t want to think about what their own last moments will be like, so they wishfully think
Yes but there are people who go through their whole life afraid to do what they enjoy, afraid of breaking the circle of comfort and habit. In that sense these 3 victims were free spirits. The couple did what they enjoyed most and were doing it well and the professor was also a free spirited man.
@@trouaconti7812 And this is why you don't comment on yt after getting high, folks.
"Caramelized by the golden sun." That is beautiful writing right there!
Love your attention to all the details.
You makes us dive into the tragedy.
You are awesome telling stories man.
THank you for being the only true crime channel on youtube that covers this stuff without reading the script in a monotone (trying to sound scary) voice at a clip of 1 word per second.
I am Australian and remember the tragedy reverberated right around Australia for some time. Photos of these beautiful intelligent wholesome young adults. I remember how his father who is in a very senior position in the police here handled his death with such dignity all while feeling the ultimate sense of helplessness. Such a typical Aussie lad who had the whole world in front of him/them both and had it stripped away - completely senseless.
Canadian Here. ALL of Canada was on edge - and on the look-out for these two, the entire time. Two young men were detained on the other side of the country - because they resembled them.
yet another thorough and great video from true crime barrista ADRIAN!
All interesting aspects of the case covered.
Thank you.
I love the work that you put into all your shows you are a natural at. I watch all of them BEAUTIFUL JOB WELL DONE 🥰🥰 Please keep them coming.
This is quickly becoming one of my favourite true crime channels. Especially because of the way you deal with the victims. It leaves very little room for people idolising the killers and it honours the memory of the victims instead of making them little more than a footnote. Honestly, 10/10.
The pics of Leonard in his younger days look SO MUCH like the pics of Lucas. Weird!
Never see them in the same room... think about it
I think these two dirtbags were targeting people who looked alternative or had a hippy vibe: the three victims enjoyed nature, whereas the murderers saw only darkness.
I was looking for this comment!!
I thought the same
Thank you so much for this. I followed this sad story in the news when it happened. I nearly skipped it today but i'm glad I watched. I got to know the 3 individuals who sadly lost their lives, it was a thing of honour to hear about them and see some beautiful pictures about them. I got to hear Billy too. I'd never heard about his role until today. Thank you again. May the 3 souls lost in this tragedy continue to rest in eternal peace
I so love your videos! Keep them coming in, Adrian! I love hearing from you! You are the very best!
They were so excited for their future together, and it was so brutally robbed of them… 😞💔
Billy is my hero. RIP Leonard, Lucius and China.
I remember following this story the whole time it was happening. I follow another CZcams who ive asked multiple times to look into thos case. Thank you for doing this and shedding light onto this case. I feel safe in Canada 🇨🇦 but this for sure hit home. Stay safe everyone! 🙏
This is my favourite podcast Adrian, I am a huge fan, please continue to make more, I’m addicted to watching these incredible stories, Thankyou for sharing them💛💛💛
*Some other Canadian cases for potential future videos:*
-Alek Minassian - Toronto Van Attack
-Gabriel Wortman - 2020 Nova Scotia Attacks
-Luka Magnotta - The Canadian Psycho
I think he should do those in chronological order
yes please, as a Canadian it's awesome to learn about nasty crimes committed in my own country
@@greasymoth4172 yes but the biggest case in Canada I can think of is the highway of tears where it has a bunch of unsolved murders and 2 killers caught
And Allan Legere from New Brunswick, his case is pretty f!cked up
Luka Magnotta has been one of the most widely covered true crime cases ever, I personally think it wouldn't be as interesting as his usual videos. But I would like to watch videos about the other ones you listed.
My heart goes out to all victims. And a standing ovation for Billy, he almost single handedly did the manhunt. God bless him and the Cree tribe, and all the other Indigenous peoples of the Americas. May their legacies continue to live on, but hopefully, be given more recognition, rights and resources.
I’m binging your videos while I work. I love them please continue to make them! I really love longer ones too, makes the day go by faster! Keep up the good work, I’m really loving it!
I remember when this happened and it shocked me to my core and good job on the video keep on making them and showing respect to the victims of these horrible crimes.
