Gypsy getting sent to prison instead of some sort of mental health and rehabilitation facility is a failure of the justice system, in my opinion. She was essentially held captive and abused physically, mentally, and emotionally for years by her mother. She was controlled and raised up in that environment to believe she could have no way out. This was a highly unusual case and it needed to be handled as such.
According to other comments here, Gypsy preferred prison. She knew she would have the freedom to do what she wanted in a mental health facility, which would essentially be just like what she went through with her mother. In prison, she would have more freedom. It sounds like she might even have chosen prison intentionally.
I guess she felt that it would be an environment she already was familiar with after all she's been through. 🙁
i know right!
That doesn’t mean it is her choice whether or not another person lives. If she didn’t get sent to prison that would create such a backlash and destroy the system we have. She still committed a crime and the circumstances don’t justify what she did
censor everything She seemed fine. She knew better. She even said “she taught me to lie, and I want to be an honest person.” She is able to distinguish right from wrong even if she was mistreated. Plus the court involves psychiatric evaluations to determine the mental health of criminals and they never mentioned that she had any problems. She got the minimum sentence anyways
HOW DID THE DOCTORS NOT REALIZE THAT THEY WERE OPERATING ON A HEALTHY PERSON?!?
Exactly. Why not one of the noticed nothing was wrong???!!!!
I expect duty of care is a lot more lax in the US than it is in some other countries. Questions likely just get raised by specialists. Any regular practioners do what they're paid to do.
Actually a lot of doctors noticed it of course, but some doctors are businessmen. If the mother or the patient said they are feeling ill then they will do what it takes to heal them either for the money or just 'cause. Here's a link to another documentary that shows more in depth detail, it even showed one doctor that immediately knew Dee Dee (gypsy's mother) was bluffing everything and knew that gypsy is perfectly healthy.

Bribery
As someone who has worked with tough patients some doctors will do it just to shut them up. The tubes in her ears I understand but everything else I don’t.
What’s sad is that Gypsy says she’s never been happier. Being in jail was better than life with her mother.
Sad..
Would you want her mother Dee Dee was messed up a
That actually makes me glad. She's receiving treatment and her life is improved. She's eligible for parole soon.
she was arrested for having her torturer killed? that is fucked
Ten years of prison for self defense. Just because it was murder doesn't mean the Dee Dee didn't deserve it. Dee Dee had attempted murder on her hands.
Right, the mother warped her only child who took the only recourse she thought she had, which was to kill the person who was trying to kill her. Self defense.
It was a premeditated murder so that add up to her years in prison.
@@lily9652 They're treating her as though she is normal. She's not. She grew up drugged, her mother severely limited her experiences so she wasn't allowed to learn about the world like normal children. Doesn't know the difference btw right and wrong.
@@moxita91 you have a point but I don't know how Justice system works in America so I just stated a fact. I'm completely aware of her circumstances and also thought that it is unfair for her.
@@lily9652 I think they put her in jail for her own safety. Hopefully she'll be transferred, at some point, to a facility which can meet her underdeveloped and immature needs better than prison. She needs help to catch up on all she was denied. Although she stated that she's happy in prison, I think she was coached to say that and that prison isn't exactly the right environment for learning the right things and she's being denied, again. So, we'll see how this works out. Nice chatting ;)
That wasn't a mother. A real mother wouldn't do that to her child. I guess Gypsy thought it was the last option that's why she did it.
Pauline NS she did I watched the show about it. She said she would give her medication that would make her whole body numb and basically paralyze her from the neck down whenever she would try to walk and when she’d try to refuse meds she’d like force her and it was just terrible
Bekha Griffin, the pain she had been through. It's horrifying.
Pauline NS it’s terrifying because you don’t really think anyone can go through that until you see it
Don't forget the feeding tubes he mother got put in her even tho gypsy truly believed she was young turns out she's in her 20s at that time
a biological mother, but not a mother mentally
I don’t understand how somebody could do this to their child. It’s disgusting. A real parent would never do that.
Ella H. Why did she do it though?
Semhal Tesfai it's a mental illness, she can't control it
MIRA 22 but it said she wasn’t born with them so I’m confused. Did she just never have those illnesses? and why’d her mom do that
Semhal Tesfai there is a mental illness called Munchausen by proxy it is a very serious mental illness that causes a person to cause harm to a person they supposedly love to bring attention to themselves. They wish to look like the hero and seem like they are saving the person. It is quite often a mental illness that is found in mothers and I believe that this woman had it. Well no murder can be justifiable I believe that this is a case of I have to kill her before she kills me it should have been looked at that way. It was her life against her mother's life. It was abuse and it should have been taken that way that she even got jail time is a miscarriage of Justice. It should have been ruled that she would her life was in danger and she needed to be freed. By not bringing attention to the fact that the mother had Munchausen by proxy more than likely it belittles the Mental Health institution when this could have been used to bring attention to the sad state of mental health care in the United States.
"A real parent wouldn't do that" completely erases how multifaceted of an issue child abuse is. Real parents do abuse their children when under stressful circumstances like mental illness and abuse they've suffered themselves. Dehumanizing abusers only serves to alienate them from the rest of society when in reality, abusers are just products of their circumstances that we should make an effort to understand and combat. Abuse is a very human thing, but that doesn't mean we can't take action to prevent it. And this is coming from a child abuse victim.
She didn’t deserve jail time her mother was torturing her, Gypsy was put through hell because of this lady.
That is sill murder no matter the circumstances.
Drive Gear
Ok but hear me out. Why is this case different than someone being kidnapped and tortured? She was tortured almost her entire life up until she killed her mom. To me the only difference is that it was her mother but she still had no control just like a victim that’s kidnapped. I feel like it was more of a self defense case.
If you watch any interviews with Gypsy you can see she knows what she did was wrong and is actually happy in prison. I just hope she’s getting the help she deserves
wait... soo gypsy was healthy all that time ????
Bingo
Yes; she was healthy. It was believed that her mother had a type of disorder where the parent would induce an illness on the child, finding gratification by doing so.
Gypsy's Mother would manipulate the doctors into believing the girl was both physically and mentally challenged. They performed unneeded surgeries on Gyspy due to the Mother's persistence to do so. Gyspy also had to take medications she never needed.
When the Doctor's began to realize that the Mother was being untruthful, Dee Dee would pack up Gypsy and move her out of town to avoid controversy.
Gypsy on multiple occasions seeked help or proved she wasn't ill as she appeared, but her Mother would just tell the police that Gypsy was mentally handicapped, and delusional, prompting the police and others around her to believe the girl was lying.
I apologize for the long comment, but I hope it explains the situation a bit better.
Yep, Gypsy also took it upon herself to ask her online boyfriend to kill her mom, Tbh I think gypsy deserved more years in prison.
Gypsy also manipulated her online boyfriend.
Hello There Gypsy was on a LOT of medication and didn’t really understand the reality of what she was doing. She just wanted to be free from her mothers abuse. Her boyfriend, however did have the ability to fully grasp situation and should have known better. I feel the 10 years given to Gypsy was fair because it was still murder but it was under very special circumstances. I’m just glad she didn’t get life without parole or the death penalty.
This isn't that hard to get away with, my mother had me hospitalized saying I was suicidal, no doctor ever evaluated me during the week stay. When I asked for an evaluation I was told 'we were given all the information we need from your mother'
She should not be in prison
Elena Cuevas same thing happened to me. I spent a whole year of my life in icu extensive care because I was “flight/life risk” now after years of abuse that’s on my permanent record and I’m prescribed medications that make me sickly and miserable. Legally I have to take them.
I am so sorry that you went through that. I look forward to a fully impartial world where we have a just administration who won't judge by what it looks like, but decide with righteousness in behalf of the afflicted. (Isaiah 11:4,5)
She needs some therapy poor girl
I watched the show gypsys revenge it was good I feel bad for her free her she's suffered enough at the hands of get mother she's not even the one who.killed her mother
Yes, she should have contacted authorities instead of having her mother killed but she'd seen for herself that doctors could so easily be fooled by her mother. Why would she believe it would be different if she went to police? Ten years in prison is too much. Her entire life with her mother was punishment.
She actually tried contacting the police before but when they went to investigate her mother said that she was sick and prone to delusions and they took her word for it. After they left, she then punished Gypsy for it. Murder or suicide were her only options.
Gypsy said that she had never felt so free before. Even if she is in prison. She said, "At least im not in a wheelchair bounded by tubes and needles. At least i won't have strong medicines shoved down my throat
I know right!! She literally living in hell with that monster that you call a mother. That’s enough punishment.
Gymnasmic still when she tried to when she was younger she was berated by her mom by doing it and the overmedication had an effect on her body
Like you said her mother is a master manipulator so let’s say she calls the police they show up and her moms like oh no it was a mistake my daughter is ill they wouldn’t question it

Lmfaooo😭
How do you make the writing dark and thick????
Joey King looks so much like Gypsy its crazy
Eh. Not too much. The only thing that looks alike are their lips. And even that is a little differen't.
shhh be quiet but you gotta say the voice Joey king does is similar
Melanie Escobedo ikr especially since she cut her hair and her voice is on point
She's a real actor 💪💙 I knew it since I saw her in Conjuring
Well Joey has blue eyes big lips more a rounded head shape and Gypsy has brown eyes lips are more thinner and her head shape is more a v shape
Dee Dee got exactly what was long coming to her. No one in her own family even wanted her ashes after she was cremated. They even laughed and suggested they flush them down the toilet. I think that basically sums it up.
Yeah her dad said that
And i hope when she get out she come back home to south east Louisiana
You can also argue that they failed in their duty to help and protect Gypsy.
Ya'll ever stop to think that maybe they helped in creating who dede was today...cause what they said is pretty fucked up as well.
Nice
When you’re expected to read.. I was waiting for Ryan to narrate this 😂
You're right every time I read the words I heard it in my head in his voice

If these people kill out of self-defense they shouldn't go to jail.
Violet Blue i think she actually wanted to go to prison
They should, as long as this situation could have been avoided in another way
Sayonara I couldn’t have been avoided. If you look into the case at all, she tried methods of getting out. It was this, suicide, or keep living as a slave to her manipulative mother
@@ssimms8995 child support is a thing, she could call them
This isn’t self defense. Self defense would be if her mother was physically beating her and Gypsy killed her in the process of trying to stop her mother. This was murder not self defense.

Me! Hello from Dominican Republic
I feel like Gypsy had a pretty bad lawyer if she got 10 years min with a plea and this circumstance.
This video does a bad job at giving all the information. I'm not 100% but I believe Gypsy said she wanted the prison time because she felt guilty and it was more freedom than she's ever had before. I don't think she deserved it but I also don't think she cared since her tourture ws over.
Derpinshnofe In adoctor phill interview, she said that she believed she did deserve jail time, but not that much.
Its law
For real
Maryssa Frisbee she did it for self defense, though. Her mother would’ve eventually killed her, in order to keep up the sob story about her deeply disabled and sick daughter.
my question is, what doctor was responsible for the surgeries that gypsy didn’t even need? can’t they have authority to say nothing is wrong and refuses to operate?
abby kennedy there were drs who saw nothing was wrong with Gypsy. Dee would not return to them or the hospital they worked at. Those Drs who saw that nothing was wrong with Gypsy should have reported it. Drs are mandated reporters. All those Drs who didn't report can have jail time if someone presses charges. The father was also seeing Gypsy for a short time (till age 3) and knew his daughter was not ill. He could have reported it or filed for a custody hearing which would have uncovered everything sooner.
Our Love Grows The adults are responsible here. They messed up her life
the thing is is is no large medical data base that can give you the medical history of one person. Dr.s who did encounter them couldn't have had any hunch after just one visit. Many patients come on complaining about certain things that might not show up medically, and thus doctors could assume it could have been through internet research. Basically what im trying to say is that physicians are not mind readers nor do they have the luxury of time to accommodate everyone; tons of overlooked cases of missed opportunity to help. Then again I'm not saying that all GP are kind and do their job correctly. I can't speak for the Physicians who did do the surgery. I know healthcare in the USA is different so those procedures are hefty. Did they have some kind of monetary support for those surgeries? how come it was allowed?
She likely gave her unnecessary meds or harmful plants to cause symptoms requiring action. If the doctor doesn't know about those, and they don't show up in tests, they will treat the fake problems.
Melissa Yarnell it's not just that btw, I watched an interview w gypsy and apparently dee dee told her that she was mentally deficient. It convinced gypsy to never speak up during doctor appointments.
She had it coming
She had it coming
There's no one but herself to blame.
If you had been there, if you had seen it.

Poor Gypsy. We should petition for her to get help instead of imprisoning her.
there is a petition, i heard she will get released soon.
she wanted to be in jail. she said she would rather be in jail because she had more freedom than she did at home.
@@taompons she said she'd rather jail than a mental facility Because those were her only options at the time

As soon as I saw the title of his video, I already knew what it was about. To be truthful, I don't blame the girl for wanting to kill her mother.
iDareDevils No, it's okay. It's not my own original art anyway. It is a fan art from the Anime Attack On Titan. It's a fan art of the character Armin stabbing another version of himself (I think).
We had a local murder case where an affluent Dr killed his wife and tried to frame her lover. He got like 4 years because it was a "crime of passion" even though he planned it meticulously. The fact this girl got 10 after everything her mother did to her is mind boggling.
he had a wife but the wife had a lover?
@@prickollo maybe it was a poly relationship? Idk
@@prickollo sounds like she was having an affair
Was this the neulander case?
Because it was just straight up murder abd framing while this was A LOT. Mind you Gypsy asked to go to jail instead of a mental facility.
I will never consider murder right, but I can absolutely see why she did this. That her whole life of abuse, and she for sure had no others outlets that she knew of. Anger is a secondary emotion.
parenting is not a right either - parents have RESPONSIBILITIES not rights over their children's inalienable human rights. it's time to vet parents
They're making a hulu original about this
TwentyØne_Junky I know I seen The ad for it
That's why I'm here
Kermit The Frog same
Billie Addict what’s it called?
Lucy Blackman “The Act”
This a really interesting and heartbreaking story. If you have time, look up some longer articles about it. Even though she's in jail, it seems like Gypsy is doing really well. She says she has more freedom in prison than she ever did with her "mom." She's also taking classes and looking forward to being released into the real world to actually start her real life. I know she's technically a murderer, but jeez louise, I'm rooting for Gypsy.
Same, no child deserved the abuse she got
She is the victim. Period.
No. Why didn’t she just post the truth on FB before? Or at events?
ella elise in the full story she tried to escape peacefully a few times. When she reached out to people they didn’t believe her. Once at a convention she paid a guy to try and smuggle her away but got caught. Her mom also had her on a lot of medicine, some of which were mood altering. I can’t say for sure, but I’m giving her the benefit of the doubt.
her mom was practically poisoning her, it was basically self defense. gypsy didnt deserve jail time tbh, or maybe at most a year or two
The editing and music make this so much more suspenseful even though I know how it ends
Monbebean :3 Love ur name!
Monbebean :3 nah, it’s just annoying
Same monbebe that music
yah,,
Monbebean :3 how does it end
Moral of the story for mothers:
Don't get hyper emotional over your children or you'll drive them to a dangerously unstable breaking point and kill you. In this case, literally.
Mums just need to let their kids grow up naturally. Being overprotective stunts their mental growth. They won't be children forever.
Man I thought I was gonna see Ryan and Shane
literallyyyy
This whole thing is messed up. The freest she’s ever been is now that she’s in prison. The mom kept her own age from her and would sometimes cover her daughters ears when she talked to the doctors. The boyfriend was awful too and controlled her to extreme means. She went from one abusive relationship to another. Prison is a step up for her. It’s so sad they put her in prison and not somewhere to get better mental care.
kiki miserychic Exactly.
The Justice system is messed up in America, they put everyone in prison.
Musty Weave well she did MURDER someone.
Agree
Jana M the issue is that prison makes so many people’s mental health worse. It’s quite possible that she could be traumatized again while in there. ( not to say that mental health facilities can not also be terribly run )
Munchausen by proxy is a real issue in this case. As a teacher of preschool to Senior Special needs children, I have seen where parents inhibit their children to develop. Never this extreme, but enough to make you cringe.
April Manint Out of curiosity, have you ever encountered a student whose parent insisted they were special needs but who clearly had no developmental problems?
As a special needs mom this makes me sick. I’d give anything for my kids to be ok, or as other people say “normal.” I couldn’t imagine hindering my children. I’d give anything to have a conversation with them.
And thank you for being a special needs teacher! We appreciate you!
My mother did this to my special needs brother and I can see him snapping and doing something like this someday...
my cousin is disabled, unable to walk, with inhibited motor skills, can't speak, apart from his tourettes which causes him to repeat certain words. he's 21 now, and i remember when he was younger his school wanted to teach him sign language. by that time he was already 13, so further developmental damage had been done because he didnt have a language. i found out that his mother had repeatedly prevented him from learning bsl from a young age. now he's older, and his mum expects his sister to take care of him. not only has no language robbed him of the quality of life he could've had, but she has put a huge ask on her daughter by expecting her to be a carer when she's so young, and should be having her own life. it makes me so mad, so many people could've had completely different lives, been happier. been able to be more independent, live. i don't understand doing this to your child. >:(
Isn't joey king doing a hulu show/ movie about this?

We need a whole buzzfeed unsolved on this. Except a buzzfeed solved. I want Ryan and Shane's banter about this
10 years?? After suffering for all her life?? This is so unfair!!
Now she will never be able to have a life! When she gets out of prison, she will go back in very fast.
Instead of helping her, putting her on a correction house or therapy, you decide to put her in jail... for ten years!!
I see this as self-defense, nothing more!
Not exactly. She's been doing good in prison from what I've heard and is ready to finally start her own life. I don't think she'll go back. :)
I agree, but she seems really happy in prison honestly and doesn't hold anything against her sentencing. she's looking forward to getting out but for the moment she's just happy to have a bit more freedom to be normal and see other people
João Silva Yeah this is self defense killing people even flags could have called CPS on her mom
João Silva hh
Self-defense?!
She conspired to kill somebody. That’s not self defense that’s conspiracy to murder.
Living in Springfield when all this happened was shocking, when she and her boyfriend went missing everyone here called her a monster. Once the truth started coming out we all were dumbfounded. Personally I had never met Gypsy but everyone who knew her knew how shy and soft spoken she was when she was 'sick'
My mother is actually in jail with Gypsy for the time being, from her I hear a completely different story on how she ACTUALLY is. She still feels incredible guilt for what she did, honestly I can't blame her. I hope Dee Dee rots.
Stormi Reynolds How is she actually?
@@safily She caged, crippled and tortured her and noone did anything to stop it. She didn't lie about her having a fever, she gave her meds that would make her teeth fall out and made her have useless surgeries that could have killed her.
Stormi Reynolds is it weird that I feel bad for her bcus she seems like she is a good person and felt extremely helpless and it’s a fact that she’s not some “cold-blooded” murderer cuz she fully acknowledged her murder and feel extreme guilt for it oh god I hope when she gets out of prison she lives a full and happy life.
I live in Springfield too but didn't move here until after it happened. I had a job and picked up her neighbor for work and made a passing comment that I wanted a pink house. . . then I told a coworker at my other job about this pink house and he told me the story. such a heartbreaking a bizarre tale
The Simpsons
She told Dr.Phil that she feels more free in prison, that is so sad 😭😭
But tbh Gypsy doesn’t even suppose to be in jail omfg
Münchhausen by Proxy is so fascinating and scary... we've just recently had a case here in Denmark, where a mother regularly tapped her son's blood from age 0 to six, just to get attention from doctors. Her son received countless blood transfusions because of severe anaemia. It's just crazy.

YEET
bts in your area yes
Would we in prison a woman who murdered her kidnapper? Of course we wouldn’t. We’d call her a HERO and talk about what a survivor she is and how strong she is.
This poor child / teen endured a lifetime of mental and physical abuse by someone who was supposed to be a parent.. Being put through unnecessary surgeries is totally abuse.
Have you ever been through surgery? All ready hard and horrific. Especially when it’s not needed.
I think Dee Dee’s murder was totally a billion times over justified.
I think the ONLY thing she should face is recovering, with the help of therapists.
She shouldn’t be in prison.
Whom ever the jury was should be ashamed of themselves.
Like I said we wouldn’t put a woman who killed her captor in prison. How is this any different?
Fukai Kokoro Exactly. This makes no sense.
Fukai Kokoro I completely agree. However, Gypsy said she felt guilty about what she did and wanted the jail time, I suppose to kind of ‘improve herself’. She also said she had more freedom in jail than she ever did at home, which breaks my heart 💔
I wouldn't say "of course we wouldn't," since there's AT LEAST one case of a girl who was jailed at 15 for killing the man who'd been raping her. The justice system is kind of a failure.
Gypsy’s an adult, her mom lied about her age to her, and celebrated her birthday once every few years I believe, Gypsy thought she was around 9-12 ( I forgot the age), but in reality she would’ve just turned 18 or 19, I think her dad tried telling her her real age, but Dee Dee kicked him out of her house before he could.
Unfortunately she plead guilty and took a plea deal witch by default means she has to go to jail or a mental ward of some sort, I don’t think a jury was even involved in the choice, it was hers to make she could have pled self defence she chose not to and that’s her choice to make.
Yay! Hulu is coming out with a film/series for this and I was just hoping you guys covered the story already! And of course you did! Woopee!
Boo. No Ryan or Shane sighting.
Omg a hulu moving is about this story and it's going to be aired soon so excited for thiss
Gypsy said she feels freer in prison than when she was living with her mom.
Fr
Eesh.... that says a lot about what kind of mother Dee Dee was...
Wow the abuse was that horrible that prison is better to be in then live in her mother's home.
That poor girl should be in a psychiatric hospital, not a prison.
April Pray no psychiatric hospitals are awful. This is what she wants.
Why a psychiatric hospital? that's for metal disorders and she didn't have any, unless recovering from abuse she could do fine with in a prison
Brianna Wise prison with a therapist. Agreed, she isn't mentally Ill.
Brianna Wise psychiatric hospitals are very risky, sometimes the staff are wrong to the patients, and sometimes the screams of stress from the patients are too much for someone.
I know this from experience, now I'm basically scared of doing anything without fear of being sent to another placement(mental hospital/residential facility)
Katie Bayliss i think you are thinking about geriatrics. geriatrics are awful. There are specialized hospitals that are clean and rehabilitating for cases like this.
I live in Springfield, I can’t believe something like this happened
Wait didn’t they make a Movie similar to this Story
The Act?
It's based on it
I still dont think she should be in jail. That girl needed help and couldn't get it!
Jess Miller If it was any other country, she wouldn't have went to jail. She would have been sent to a mental health facility, but this was in America, where they don't care about actually helping the person change and become a better person, they just want an eye for an eye.
toddert literally, americans are so friendly in general but at the same time they're so bloodthirsty and merciless when it comes to their criminals. They don't care about enabling people to go out into society safely again, they just care about punishment. Insane that a "developed" country has the death penalty in 2018, for example
She said she should be punished. She knows she broke the law but considering all that her mother put her through she knew/felt having her mom murdered was her only chance to get out of there (she had tried to run away before this).
And especially not for 10 years :(
i think she still should go to jail, but def not for a MINIMUM of 10 years.
Please do the Chiong sisters, unsolved case from Philippines. I would love to hear your theories regarding it.
yes please!!
she is Z said the same on the last postmortem hope they get interested. its true crime season after all
and the vizconde murders
Yes please!!
Please do!!
Man, the actor for Nick in The Act really got his every little quirk down pat, looking back on his police interview. And Joey King really captured Gypsy's spirit... Don't even get me started on Patricia Arquette... I barely recognized her. She didn't look a thing like herself until the flashback scenes in the 90s. Everyone was just brilliantly cast. The show has its fair share of issues, and the real-life people it was based on have some legitimate gripes with it (primarily the writing), but the casting was goddamn FLAWLESS.
You should do a whole episode on this before the movie comes out!
Can we get a voiceover for the text? Us multitaskers could use some audio.
and the visually impaired!
Ikr
Multitasking isn't a real thing
Erica Elizondo lmao just because you can’t handle how to multitask doesn’t mean it’s not really sweetie
Yah for real

I loved 1 hr away from Springfield. It was all over the news. I didn’t really understand what happened. There were so many thing the news was saying that it got overwhelming. But this video makes since. It’s a crazy story.
who's here after watching the trailer of movie "THE ACT "
Gurpreet kaur me
I focus in these more than my summer HW
Tenct same. history can wait
I have 2 exams tmrw! 😂😂
Same
Tara Mohandas 👍
Tenct same bc school is in 20 days for me
I’m from Springfield, Missouri. I remember the day this happened and Gypsy went “missing.” I remember the Facebook post on Dee Dee’s page. A friend of mine and I were like, “Plot twist, Gypsy isn’t missing and she murdered her mom.” AND IT WAS TRUE. Munchausen by proxy is a real thing and I don’t blame Gypsy one bit for what she did. She couldn’t ever escape her mother no matter how hard she tried so she did the only thing that guaranteed her freedom from her.
Oof it spooked me out when it said officers from Waukesha county cause that’s where I live
I live an hour from Springfield and remember this happening and Dee Dee's page as well. It was definitely a crazy time for Missouri!
I also live in Springfield and rember this story when it came out too. Everybody was speculating something different but her murdering her mom was the truth. With everything her mom put her through i agree with not blaming her.
Toni Shuffit wasup My Missouri pall. I just had to let you know. I’m not currently there but I live near mt. Vernon and I’m in spfd all the dang time. Idk why I’m telling you this but you mentioned spfd mo and I was just like YEAH GO MO
I watched a documentary on this case and it’s truly heartbreaking :(
I’ve seen interviews with Gypsy and she’s always very polite and respectful towards the interviewer. It’s a shame she had to endure all her mother put her through
I love the direction behind this network.
I love Shane and Ryan but it’s cool to see a different branch to unsolved.
You mean *different branch to solved
This is such a fascinating case. It's like a onion, there are so many layers to it. And honestly, the only way for her to get out of her situation was to kill dee dee. I mostly feel bad for her dad, because he had no idea what was going on, from the very beginning because of dee dee manipulated everything from the start
kashpan OH THEYRE STINKY!
Sorry im not familiar with this case what happend to her father??
Krystal Hyun he got Deedee pregnant when he was a teenager and she was in her 20s. She moved away and took care of Gypsy mostly by herself. He would send money and I think occasionally visit her, but he thought all of Gypsy’s ailments were real because Deedee was very convincing. So he didn’t even know that she was abusing his daughter because he thought she was really sick.
Paige Sifford ohhh.. thank you!! ^^
DONKEY OGRES ARE LIKE ONIONS
This is the most vauge explanation for this murder for something that is vastly complicated
There’s a movie that’s going to be on this case
Lamar MSP it’s a show on hulu
so happy we have a channel just for these type of videos
emily AMEN
I was suspect from the moment I saw someone name her child Gypsy Rose, that sets up all I need to know for this video. :/ Chillingly telling.
sweatpantsprincess What's wrong with Gypsy Rose?
{ Rhea } There was a famous burlesque dancer who was horribly abused by her mother with that name. There are movies about her. Nameing that poor girl Gypsie was almost an omen.
also, i think gypsy is a racial slur
abbes52 it's used to describe a specific "tribe" but yeah it can be used as a slur (at least in my language, in my country we have a lot of gypsies and people like to use that name as a downgrading way for example when someone dresses poorly which is fucked up)
382 283 are you from the UK?
Can you guys pleaseeee make a whole video on this? I feel like with the new show coming it is especially fitting for Shane and Ryan to really clue us in on what went down
Being around Gypsy and Dee Dees family, watching them go through this was really tough. They were all worried about Gypsy but her mom always gave vague answers. My stepdad is closely related to them and everyone in the family for the most part feels the same. Gypsy did what she had to do.
I enjoy Unsolved so much, at least in part, because the episodes are fully narrated. As a blind person, I have no way of enjoying videos like this one, which do not provide narration or a transcript.
All it would take is a link to the transcript in the description.
Anonymous Thinker Er Don’t joke about being blind. The fact you scrolled down to the comment section and wrote this (maybe you used speech to text) is very doubtable. Also you wouldn’t be able to reply so this comment is useless
Mexican Harry Potter How dense do you have to be to think that blind people just don't use the internet. There are plenty of tools to help them navigate around. No one is joking about being blind here.
Mexican Harry Potter More than likely they're asking for a transcript AT LEAST so that a machine can read it out to them.
Mexican Harry Potter Hey genius, theres an option on iPhones where you move your fingers across the screen and it reads aloud each word. Theres a popular youtuber called Molly that has shown how it works and how she is able to use the internet.
Mexican Harry Potter definitely kindly recommend you check out how blind people use technology it’s not doubtable at all.
Oh so this is what that Law & Order: SVU episode was about
MissDarcei Yep
Which one was it? I don't think I've seen it.
What season?
MissDarcei I know witch one your talking about they copy real life a lot
MissDarcei what season and episode please?
I would love to see Gypsy rose meet the actress that plays her
I hope this case is in the new season of Buzzfeed Unsolved with Ryan and Shane
That murder was self-defense. Gypsy should be put in a psychiatric hospital, not prison.
So the mother was the ill one in the family?
T.C.G. OOOOOOOOH YOU JUST ROASTED THE MOM😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣💯💯🔥🔥💯🔥
Bob Fizcling Are you 5?
@@Kyarrahh ikr lmao
@@Kyarrahh LMAoOo
Kyarrah G OML lmao😂
I need to see more of this
Has anyone stopped to think what would have happened to Gypsy is she never arranged to kill her mother? For years, her mother told people that her "medical problems" would kill her before she was an adult. Dee Dee would of eventually had to of killed Gypsy to keep the charade up. She had already killed her own Mother... It was either Gypsy or Dee Dee. I do not blame that poor little girl for anything. I'm glad she's finally out of her mother's control.
i dont think she should go to prison. she should be sent to a mental hospital yes, but she shouldnt go to prison. essentially i think of it the same as someone killing their abuser, i think sometimes to the people it is the only way out, especially since abuse like that severely messes with ur mental health.
Sina Sophia Mental hospital means more medication and treatment. She is freer in prison. It's a hellhole, but no one would force feed her through a tube, she'll have to work and pull her weight, and she gets treated like an equal with the rest of the convicts. That's the most freedom she ever had.
Shree Nation she wanted prison
I don't blame Gypsy one bit for doing what she did.
She murdered someone
Anne Mae Murdering someone is a horrible thing, but you also have to understand why she did it. Her mother enslaved her and abused her, what would you do if you were in her situation, it’s not different from let’s say if a stranger were to kidnap you and perform surgeries and other abusing things to you, wouldn’t you do anything to escape that horror?
yasmine saad so true and this is why I hate white people in America and why I hare white police . I’m also born with a disability that’s microcephaly similar to aurtisum abs I understand abuse
@@pocahontasseguinart7099 wow. Thanks for hating me even though I literally have done nothing to you
@@annemae2298 So do people who are being attacked, raped, or tortured, kidnapped, etc. It is called self defense.
The trailer to the act is so freaking good you don’t understand😭
Oh I remember this, I watched the movie of it, really teared me up.

More like

Did u just
I needed this thx
That was a lie she could not come back to South east Louisiana if she did she be in prison for bad checks and 🐸
I think this murder was justified. It was truly Gypsy's only option.
Luna her mom did kill her mom who was a con and evil
She could have called someone and gotten her mom some therapy or something and let someone else care for her instead. That could be another option. (if she had an online boyfriend, she obviously had a way to communicate with people outside of her house.)
L isn’t it kind of self defense
i like how this popped up in my recommendations after i watched like several trailers in the shoe ‘the act’ from hulu lmao
this is by far the most interesting murder case ever
That murder was justified, she would have continued to treat gypsy like that until they day she died anyway. Those procedures were barbaric for someone who wasn't sick.
Ethan Reusora murder can be justified
I would love to see the case about the Glico-Morinaga Japanese company, better known to some as "The Monster with 21 Faces." Crazy interesting story, and it has everything Shane will find interesting! Car bombs, food poisoning, notes from the terrorists, over-confidence from the criminals, a potential heist, and "the mysterious fox-eyed man"
yes please
never heard of it but hell if it doesn't sound interesting
this came up in my recommended after seeing the Hulu trailer for The Act. now i know where the show comes from
WHY ARE YALL LYIN, SHE AINT KILL HER MOTHER. SHE KILL SOME SYCHO.
