The Candace Newmaker case is just upsetting. The first petscop video MatPat did talks about it. The lines that witness said were almost word for word what the actual therapist said.
That's how I regonized the description here that case made me almost sick hearing about it. The Petscop creator said he regretted putting it in and dropped references later in the series
They let the therapists off easy in the episode. Made it look like it was the mom's fault for poisoning the sheets
I just looked it up. It’s unbelievable!! How these idiots even thought that this “rebirthing” nonsense would be effective is beyond me but that they didn’t stop when a child was saying she couldn’t breathe is infuriating. May this baby Rest in Eternal Peace.
The SVU episode with the adult woman pretending to be a teen girl in foster care was based on what happened at my high school. The guy she dated was the younger brother of my assistant band director, who was a senior at my high school when I was a freshman.
Law and Order episodes were always ripped from the headlines. A lot of them were based on real cases in NYC or other major cities
Exactly! That's how it was originally advertised, as a "ripped from the headlines" show.
So basically what the title says. Well done for repeating that.
Yes, they even did an episode based on a case that took place up here in Canada, back in the late 80s/early 90s too.
Duh 😮
also based on urban myths or films. But crime based
The Joyce Gilchrist case is... disgusting. 23 people sentenced to death, 12 executed, on blatantly falsified evidence. She should have been sent to death row for killing innocent people. If she was like the L&O equivalent, she'd probably have argued 'I didn't put the needle in their arm'.
I would've liked to have seen her sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole, she died in Texas, 2015 at the age of 67 (Cause is not listed but probably cancer), she should've died in prison for what she did. You'd think after all of her fabricated testimony was exposed especially in light of it resulting 12 people being murdered by Oklahoma that the state would've suspended if not outlawed the DP.
What was her fate? Did she go to jai, and for how long?
@@alexdurain3753 Nope. She was fired from her job after a lawsuit brought her misconduct to light, but relocated and worked in the private sector for a candle company to her dying day. No idea how her work at that place went.
@@alexdurain3753 She lost her job. Zero jail time. She said she was dismissed for 'reporting sexual misconduct'. She's one of those kinds.
@@alexdurain3753 she 6 feet under now died in texas in 2015
I had saw a episode of SVU, about a set of twins. Two boys were born and the doctor had mess up one of baby's little male area. So the parents had rise the little baby boy as a girl. The true story was in fact true and sick too. David Reimer, the parents were good people. It was the doctor later that was treating him that was sick. His story was truly heartbreaking and I hope he at peace. RIP Mr. Reimer 🙏🕊️🙏🕊️🙏
That episode is one that stood out to me when I first saw it. And it's still one of my top 10 Law & Order episodes from the series (original, SVU, OC, & CI) of all time.
I watched that episode a few days ago. It's still creepy.
The "John Money" incident. Sadly, people still use that case to argue any doctor that treats transgender patients is as sick and twisted as Money. Not only did he mutilate that child and ruin the twins' and their parents' lives, but his legacy is still ruining the lives of people from beyond the grave.
RIP to both David and Brian Reimer.
Wow its crazy seeing a young Mac from "Its always Sunny in Philly"
Could y’all make another one of these? This is so cool, and one that comes to mind that is based on a true story is the episode of the mom/aunt driving the wrong way, based on the case of Diane Schuler
episode 1, season 7. Name of the episode is, causa mortis was based on the story of Kathleen Weinstein.
Season 2 episode 10, heaven. based on the 1990 Happy Land Social Club Fire caused by Cuban refugee Julio Gonzalez. he was trying to kill his girlfriend so he poured a gallon of gasoline at the only exit of the club. in the process he killed 87 people. his girlfriend was one of the few people who managed to escape
season 1 episode 9 called indifference that was based on the death of Lisa Steinberg
Thrill (episode 1 season 8) mentioned in this video. I lived close to where this happened. after the shooting many pizza places in my area stopped home delivery so your only 2 options was pick up or eating at the restaurants.
10:00 - the brazen lying and mendacity of the forensic expert is breath-taking.
That first season production quality. Looked like it could be in a theater
That’s not much of a compliment for a TV show
@@yucol5661 theater as in movie theater. should've specified lol
Every time I watch a true crime show, I've already seen it on an episode of Law & Order
If you grew up in NYC you knew about most of these cases. Well, if you paid attention to the news.
That newmaker case disgusted me so much
Mac looks sad in this one
Because of the implication
That’s really interesting I never knew some of the cases were based on true stories
That is why it's one of the longest running dramas on television.
Almost all of them are
@@Hail2daChiefexactly
That preppie Murder was a disgrace
All murder cases are a disgrace.
I know everyone and their mother shows up as an actor in Law and Order, but i never imagined Mac from It's Sunny would be here
12:00 Van buren will always be my favorite DA. Even when she’s not cracking quips and doing clever retorts her body language just says it all. That tiny head shake is filled with Disgust and anger.
@kevindolan9
Van Buren was NEVER cast as the D.A. on the right side of the law? MOST DEFINITELY but she was cast as the police lieutenant
@@catherinechan7456she was first on the show as a cleaning lady whose baby was shot and killed.,wrong address
in reality, many of the cases on all the *_Law & Order_* shows have had real life inspirations
For me was interesting to know that the real life was a point of inspiration (Sometimes Really it's more Fiction)
*fiction babyy
@@missdutchess Thanks
That scene with Rob McElhenney was hilarious! He’s so funny!
It's Always Sunny on Law and Order.🤔😆😆😆
This is a really interesting video
6:55 - I forgot that Big Pete and Mac were killers!
Candace Newmaker's case happened in my state. I watched the trial coverages on tv as a kid. I remember thinking that it was just a tv show I was watching, because the way they described everything that happened was too horrible to be real life.
I remember watching Matpat's game theory on Petscop in my teenage years and realizing it wasn't a fantastical tale. It was real. So shockingly real.
The one that they based on Elliott Rodgers was great , the actor did the his videos just like him creepy yet fantastic
13:13
"Why? Am I under arrest?"
"No! *scoffs* No. Why? You expect to be arrested?"
*jumpcut to later in the episode*
"Mister Lumez the charge against you..."
7:21 seeing a pre sunny Rob McElhenny was like a jump scare
this must be based off that one case where the girl died in 'therapy'
Yeah that case was horrifying. Poor baby.
My favorites were the ones with Michael Moriarty and Don Cheadle. 😊
Sherlock Holmes nemesis was in this?
When are you guys going to download "Criminal Intent" episodes? You already do "SVU"...
From a one-time appearance on Law & Order to co-owner of a Welsh football club.
The first case in this video was the case of Candice Newmaker.
It literally says that in the video
@@inheritmyshoes9559 Thanks.
Was that Mac from sunny in Philadelphia?
this case was a whole headache for me tbh.
That 4th one is real odd.
That second clip, the girl being questioned looks and sounds like Yeardley Smith, the voice of Lisa Simpson. Is it her?
I checked Google. It is not her.
It’s Cynthia Nixon, but you could have looked it up yourself.
@@jujujupiter She sounds so much like Lisa Simpson, I seriously thought it was her voice actress.
@@jujujupiter I almost thought she was too young to be Ms. Nixon.
Cynthia Nixon. Miranda from SATC.
True stories crime i hear and some mystery untold
Myth in fingerprints I was just watching that last night
The First Lady testifying - is she the little shy nun from sister act?
Yes, the actress name is Wendy Makkena
Didn't she also play the woman who kept tom hanks alive in castaway?
Rob Mchelhenney i did not see that coming
14:02 Tell me how you really feel, Ben.
There are a number of other L&O episodes based on real life cases and I can think of two from S1 - "Indifference" and "The Serpents Tooth", the episode based on the real-life Lisa Steinburg case (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joel_Steinberg#Death_of_Lisa_Steinberg) and the second on the Menendez brothers ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyle_and_Erik_Menéndez ). "Indifference" had a sequel - L&O 15x11 "Fixed" after real life killer Joel Steinberg was paroled in 2004.
The remarkable thing about "Indifference" was the resemblance of the actress who played the victim's mother to the real-life one.
Was the first the inspo to Petscop????
Candace Newmaker case was just upsetting
6:17 JAKE JAGIELSKI WHATRE YOU DOIN HERE
❤
8:54 I look up and see a baby Rob McElhenney lol.
First one: They really listened to someone explain precisely the steps to smother someone... and just went along with it. Wtf. Stupidity like that should have consequences, but on the stupid person, not others.
😢😢😢😢😢
What is the second one based off of the Bernie Goetz case?
Yes the 1984 "subway vigilante" Bernie Goetz.
Are any of the modern L&O or SVU cases based on real stories? Or is that kind of "based on a true story" story not their thing anymore?
Most of them are based on real cases they just say it's fiction to avoid legal problems change names change places and some detaills but is ripped from headlines
@@martakavaliauskaite4566 I know that, i'm asking if any *modern* episodes are ripped from headlines
@@KomoliRihyoh season 23 episode 2 if I remember episode for the fraud when con artist who was company owner faked test results for cancer and didn't want to loose everything when she was caught she fooled a lot of people based on some Walt Street fraud case for cancer tests
@@KomoliRihyohfar as I am aware no
SVU's 'Raw' could be based on the 1989 Stockton schoolyard shooting, where a racist man seemingly targeted children of Asian descent. While that shooting was never offically classed as racially motivated, it's difficult to believe it wasn't because the shooter was known to be racist against Asians and possessed racist literature. Revolutionary Aryan Warriors (RAW) could be based on Tom Metzger's White Aryan Resistance; the son having his own version of RAW's website could be based on Don and Derek Black.
RAW's website also featured a game that could be based on 'Ethnic Cleansing' a game where players dressed as a Klansman or a Nazi to kill minorities. RaHoWa is also mentioned, which means 'Racial Holy War', a term popularised by the Creativty Movement (World Church of the Creator).
It's always sunny in pennysylvania actor
4:17
Mac was in Law & Order? lmao
actually i would believe it
With the last one. Bail is an outrageous concept.
Yes, pay us to let you go temporarily.
That’s a systemised bribe.
👑👑🔥🔥👏🏾👏🏾🖤🖤💜💜🧡🧡❤❤✌🏾✌🏾
They can't be based on true stories. You say they're not based on true stories! Every single episode has a disclaimer stating that 'any similarity to real people or events is purely coincidental' to protect the makers of the show from being sued or having to pay.
No some clearly are
Wes the delivery guy in the 2rd segment a young Bradley Cooper, still with baby fat in his face?
It's Never Sunny in New York!! It probably was Dennis
And now he is playing a gay guy married to Martin Sheen.
Wait, is this an official CZcams channel of LAO? if it does can they say its based on true stories? because that would be admitting it and open them for lawsuits.
No it wouldn’t convicted criminals can’t profit off their own crimes and government would never sue for that
@@Hail2daChief I think you misunderstood.
every episode has disclaimers saying this episode might look like based on true life event and person but its not. they do that so they can avoid paying people and open for lawsuits.
@@asahel980exactly
Here's your taste needs to come back.
I loved the Shambala Green character before I reached the age of majority and learned what she represented.
The only thing I remember with much clarity about Law & Order is that it's a boring show.
