I remember in high school an incident where a bunch of people were picking on this girl who had issues. I remember screaming at them saying “leave her the $&@# alone” and following her into the girls room to see if she was OK. It was utter bullshit! I will never be someone who sits quietly and watch others bully anyone!!
Thank you. It only takes one person to make a change to a victims life.
I think parents ignorance or home issues or bullying is/are the reason we become reserved person. Anyway thanks.
I have nothing but respect for those who stand up to bullies and/or injustice. Whilst I understand those who cannot/do not want to, stand up to protect others (especially in this day and age of ego, entitlement and extreme violence), they become complicit in the abuse. Whilst not directly responsible, staying silent when voices are needed, is an abandonment of humanity. I do strongly urge caution when intervening, but the least you can do is report it to someone. Firm voices save lives. And the more voices there are in unison, the better off we all will be.
❤️❤️❤️
Nor me. I hate bullies ,,& use the word HATE lightly.
Kelly Ellard is on parole, changed her name to Sims, is married to Darwin Dorozan, a gang member, and has 2 kids with him. They had been pen pals. What a joke. She's a real piece of work.
A real piece of shit was my thoughts
@Bars for Biden amen! Indeed.
He will learn the hard way what it's like to live with a sociopath. It's a living nightmare.
so sad white privileged the foster care system failed reena

Kelly Ellard was granted parole and assaulted a woman. I remember her father said during her arrest that 'she stood up for herself'. She is pure evil. I wondered about all those kids who were part of this thing, how they live with themselves. I said something not so nice to people years ago and I still feel bad and shameful about that. Imagine being the start of a murder like this one.
Judging by her father saying that, we can all safely guess where she gets the violence from. He's clearly been encouraging her all her life.
She’s a psychopath and should never be free.
Her father is obviously nuts too. Kelly is a murderer and will always be a danger to society.
Serious crime needs serious sentences, no matter how old they are.
Agree! I really feel for the investigators and all the care and trouble they go through to get the perpetrators...the sentencing is a joke.
It's Canada, most crimes are almost legal.

Right?! Canada just don't know how to work their own justice system SMH
very true
They are not kids, they are young adults. And I am sick and tired of hearing how they had a bad childhood. Well so did I, my brother and I were neglected by our mother, who prefered partying. I became the adult at 9, but that hasn´t made me kill anyone. They deserve life in prison for what they did!
Gotte Nielsen: I agree with you 1000%, my parents beat me my whole life with them. On my 16th birthday I got 2 garbage bags and was told to get my stuff and leave. So I had a very very bad upbringing but NEVER wanted to kill someone.
Same here. I was put in an orphanage for 11 years but, I KNOW RIGHT from WRONG!! I could have robbed, stolen, killed, and blamed it on my past but, that's a COWARD'S way.
Exactly me too, I had a shitty childhood no friends no girlfriend I didn't turn to crime. Drugs and shit were a problem in town i grew up in but i stayed the hell away from it.
@@dzjoneshauser God bless you
@@willambonney God bless you
I moved out of my mother’s house, and began living on my own at age 16. I worked three jobs to pay for an apartment with my best friend. We never killed anyone. Oh, and my father drank himself to death by the time I was 22. Still never killed anyone. Go figure.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
@SA S I do indeed, and I am, thank you. Well, I have some chronic health problems, but I know who I am, and I’m mentally and emotionally healthy, which are the most important things. While there is no question that these early experiences shape the people we become, you still have and make choices. Rather than repeating the cycle, many people take those experiences and say “This is exactly what I do not want for myself.” A terrible upbringing can explain a heap of dysfunction, but it’s no excuse for harming other people, and it sure as heck is no excuse for murder!
@Cryptameria• Thank you very much! I’m a lot better!
How come you guys living all by yourself at the age of 16-17-18. In India we at this age afraid to go to nearby town by ourself. But you guys find a job and start to live on your own. Great!. This is really unbelievable, because even for a poorest of the poor guy will never even think of it in our country.

...it's life. End of story 😌
Kelly got life!!
They will lock up only people of colour.
@@purplove6383in Canada, Life is 25 years.
Canada will parole ANYONE. They recently gave day parole to a dirtbag named George Lovie, a double murderer and stalker who killed the parents of former NHL goalie Don Edwards and tried to kill Edwards' sister. The parole board did not advise Edwards and his family because they wanted to protect Lovie's privacy 'rights'. This forced the former NHL star and his family to go into hiding. Last I heard they had left Canada because of this country's soft-on-crime legal system.
I read about this and how one of the girl's rich parents made sure she didn't pay for her part in this. Always wondered if and when she would kill them for her inheritance.
Rather it sooner than later!.
Exactly!
6 months to a year in jail for extreme assault? Canada is doomed with Libtards on both sides, Labour and Conservative.
@@lawabidingcitizen729 GOOD FOR YOU
I LOOK AT THE AGE OF THE PERSON BEFORE CONVICTING THAT PERSONA I KNOW A LITTLE BIT OF ES,ANOL
What is the point of the Canadian justice system when case after case after case all get weak pathetic sentences..absolutely fkn disgusting 😤 judges are so incompetent and probably corrupt?
Here 🇺🇸 is not much different. Most women and underage kids get light sentences for these types of crimes. Even men too don't serve their full sentence because of "good behavior". Nice way to manipulate the system into letting you out earlier for behaving good now that it's convenient to achieve freedom, to have the opportunity of a life, a life they took away but you get to enjoy. 🤢 Our system is not any better. Flaws are huge and laws aren't strict enough, which means crime will be a neverending cycle. Singapore's justice system for example works and crime rates are very low, why? Because of the combination of these factors: effective and strict enforcement of laws, and cooperation of the people. Looking at it, any country can be as safe as Singapore as long as everyone willingly cooperates. Us being such a "great and powerful" country shouldn't have an excuse not to be but of course, many will say population doesn't even compare. Which it doesn't but there's where the excuses come in, there is where we start with the wrong foot.
You are correct they like to brag about how they found the killers only to found out they get light sentence. Sending the wrong message : life of a person worth nothing if that person is killed by a teenager.
@@oAgL214 - Not true depending on the state. In red states a brutal crime like this the person is not released on good behavior so quickly. In blue states it’s different that’s why criminals don’t give a damn about the justice system there, the highest crimes are in blue states like Chicago, Los Angles and Portland.
@@TheRight-handedStranger well Alaska has the highest crime rate and is red.
This is why I don’t blame the people who take justice into their own hands
The legal justice system is a joke
the other 6 kids who participated in brutally beating her almost to death never got punished. where's the justice in that?
6 months to a year in prison

@@rubyarguello1202 Canada's Young offender act mandates rehabilitation and the ones charged with assault were first timers that contributed to the sentence. Where i live the prisons already house 2-3 x more people than they were built for so that also plays into sentences.

"that Chinese guy"
Absolute tragedy. The pathetic Canadian justice system, the lenient “sentences” for these murderers, as well as the heavy racism that led to this young lady’s death, and allowed these other pieces of trash to get away with this atrocity. Prayers for her soul, and her family.
Exactly. White women are well enabled in the Canadian system. I know of one who murdered her baby and not only never spent a day in prison, she's allowed to openly harass and stalk people because "she is a domestic violence victim"

Having lived through such bullying and abuse my heart still aches for Rena Verk.
This isn't a bully case. She stole something from one of the other girls and made up lies about her and told all her friends. Bullying is done to innocent parties. Granted, what they did went way beyond what they should have, obviously. But, what was she thinking????
@@martharunstheworld Wether she lied or stole or gossiped, Rena wanted to have friends but didn’t know how to do it. Bullying can and does kill. Having lived through my ordeals I actually considered suicide to stop my tormentors. By the grace of God I didn’t end my life. Rena didn’t need to die at the hands of these people!!!!!
@@marenawhite3322 I am sorry for what you went through. Bullies are cowards with no brains
I read this book years ago. And the story has stuck with me since. So much so I have been very cautious on who I would let around my daughter when she was growing up. It's terrifying. As a parent you not only have to worry about pedophiles, but your child's friends too. It's just too sad.
I learned about this when I was 7 because of my parents love for watching the news at the dinner table.
I thought I was the only one. I began teaching my daughter about pedophile kidnappers at a very young age. By the time she was 12 , I started sharing stories about serial killers and even cannibalism. And also told her to be careful with her own friends and shared these types of stories with her. I’ll confess , occasionally I would tell her friends “remember guys, take care of her , cause if anything happens to her I’m going on a killing spree” in a joking way. But as God is my witness, I doubt she could ever understand how much she means to me, and how I could lose my mind if something like this happens to her. I get sick watching a story like this. As a young adult I tell her…..the state troopers would find her husbands leg stinging out of my front yard AFTER I get after his family. She laughs. But when I see this type of story, I get a queasy feeling in my stomach cause I know……her being my only child, and being so close with her………I would kill for her.
And that’s a true story. Because of all the monsters out there…..to have a group of your “friends” do this?
@@Nekoinuhanyou me! I used to share stories like this with my daughter. And the older she got the less censored they were. I could not live if anything like this happened to her.
Are you watching the new series on Hulu? "Under the Bridge"? Wondering how similar it is to the book.
People keep saying they were her friends. But in beginning of video parent told her not to go cause the others didn't like her.
I love how they say "life sentence not eligible for parole for seven years." It's really "eligible for parole after seven years". Canada's justice system is a joke.
thats why the trail of tears up there gets no chance of being solved. canada is a fucking joke.
Plus Canada is violating constitutional rights of citizens during covid. It’s disgusting. Even Syria has more constitutional rights than Canadians
Y doesn't Canada have the death penalty? I'm not all for using it Willy nilly, but there ARE cases where I feel it's appropriate. Course I'm a Texan, but.... and is the maximum sentence"life" with parole after 25yrs? That's the most I've seen in the MANY Canadian crime documentaries I've been watching.....?
The eligible for parole after 7 years is due their ages.
Same in the US except now thanks to the repuglicons- juveniles cant be sentenced to life in prison no matter what they do, which means they can walk out free at age 18 or 21 and their names and identities shielded
My heart breaks for this lonely, young girl. Savage and cowardly attack by a bunch of bullies. I wish the punishment fit the crime. Rest easy Rena 🕊️❤️
AMEN!!
Really really heartbreaking to think she just wanted to fit in..
These are not bullies. These are criminals. The girl died. They killed her. Lets use the appropriate term here.
I feel so sad for the victim if indeed it was true that she had stolen the main bully's diary then rang up people they both knew and told them her secrets (an ultra-catty manoeuvre) because in doing that she set off the process that led to her own death, and what a cruel one it was! So she was the author of her own demise, some would say. I would say cause and effect was at work here but don't misunderstand me; I am on HER side because she didn't deserve what they did to her and anyway, she wouldn't have done that diary thing for nothing! What had her killer started doing to her to make her seek that sort of revenge in the first place? That group of associates, because you can't call them friends, disliked her from the start and the victim was deep down a trusting person who wanted to give her enemies another chance. She assumed the invitation was for good reasons and that is also a reflection of having good character because that's that's what SHE would have done i.e. invite someone to a party for positive reasons, not so they can get the bash as some of us say in New Zealand. Her killer definitely belongs in prison for the rest of her life because the beating excited her enough to carry on and commit murder whereas the other participants had had enough, with one even wanting to protect her from further damage. RIParadise to the victim.
The victim was as bad as they were. She stole a roommate’s address book and used the numbers to spread vicious rumors about her. And she slept with the girl’s boyfriend. She was no pitiable angel. Let’s be real.
It is horrifying to think we walk the streets beside these vicious animals..
Dont call them animals, animals are without sin.......
@@jannepetersen4660 your right.
It's a slap on the wrist for the murderers and slap to the faces of Reena and her family. Ridiculous and infuriating.
Absolutely Agree!!!
For real!
Welcome to our embarrassing & utterly pathetic Canadian "justice" system 🙄😡
I lived on the island and was close to their age when it happened, so I'm very familiar with the murder and the aftermath. This video portrayal could have been better. They have college-aged actors playing 14-to-16-year-old teenagers, I think that clouds peoples' judgement somewhat.
I agree that Kelly Ellard shouldn't have been given any freedoms, and definitely not to have kids of her own, because she lacked remorse for so long and has yet to take full responsibility for her crime. Warren Glowatski _did_ show remorse and took responsibility for his role in murdering Reena not long after, and he went through a restorative justice process involving his Metis elders and the Virks. He received day parole in 2007 and full parole in 2010, with the blessing of Reena's parents.
@@bcpr9812 as for clouding judgement part, I listen to most of these videos while doing something else, so I didn't even see the reenactments (guessing you're referring to them).
People saw her hobbling battered & bruised & NO ONE helped her?!!!
Of course not. They did the beating. Why would they help her? Would you help someone who you just battered to hell and back?
I would helped someone, if they were badly injured.
@@klutzmtg2310 ~ They said she walked past others after the beating.
Really disgusting and sad
That’s American racism probably. Atleast when it came to other people on the bridge.
6 month to 1 yrs,its a joke...no justice for the victim SMH..😠
I loss my mom to cancer when I was 10 in a half. My father abused me in many ways people ( adults/? teachers) knew but turned a blinds eye. He remarried and she was horrible. And yet I never had a desire to hurt anyone
Liz Booth - You probably never had a desire to hurt anyone because you know so well what it's like to be hurt. I'm sorry you went through what you did. My Mom died too young as well and my father remarried. She turned out to be a gold digger and hated all 5 of us kids. Thankfully we were all married and in our own homes when he married her, but I still had my youngest sister at home with them. She was 17 when our Mom died and she still had a year of high school to do. As soon as she graduated she came to live with me to get away from that witch.
What does this have to do with what happened here?
The way this story is reported,
ignores the fact that it was a hate crime.
I thought similarly until it was mentioned that Reena Virk had stolen one girl’s notebook or diary and then contacted that girl’s friends and lied that the girl had AIDS and was having sex with another girl’s boyfriend. It seems that Reena wasn’t an angel, either. Of course, what Reena did didn’t deserve being beaten up or murdered. It probably was a mixture of racism and revenge.
Can we stop classifying crimes based on religion race etc. Is it any more or less henous if its a hate crime?
Six months to a year for six of those demons!!! Wow, what a joke:(
Disgusting. I don't care how hard anyone's life is there is no excuse in hurting harming or killing others. If grown men & women are not aloud to use their childhood as excuses in court neither should these teens.... EVIL just Evil. God bless the police and the police divers. They have a thankless job from so many until they are needed. Canada sucks in justice
allowed
Its still better than the UK Justice system.
Not fair for the once who lost their lives.
@@bluesail4160 I think the Canadian, Aussie and UK laws are equally feeble tbh. Especially with child predators. We are far too lenient with evil people in general, rehabilitation only works if the person wants to be rehabilitated.
@@bluesail4160 it’s about the same. Same in the u.k very rarely do you get more than 10 years for murder
"young age does not lessen the weight of the sin. no matter who throws the stone, it will sink in regardless" one of the best quotes in drama
Young age to me makes the sin more evil, the young are supposed to be more innocent not utterly evil

Violent unpredictable children living together. Nice. Who thought this was a good idea
First decent comment on this case so far. Totally agree
Yes and I just recently watched the case of David Roman from Ontario and thought the same thing. Putting troubled, violent teens together in a house is a BAD idea.
@@dontmindme633 Okay agreed. But where should WE (society) PUT them?
There are some kids to give to be so messed up that they become unable to relate to Society in any which way other than to be harmful.
@@suzannenichols6900 unfortunately those kids need to be in an institution that has the staff and resources to handle them. A household just isn’t equipped to take them until they get the help they need. Or in separate foster homes. Just not multiple problem teens in one house with one foster parent.
Unfortunately this is how things are in the "care" system and prisons etc alot of troubled and disturbed individuals living together seems only to reinforce the dysfunctional behaviour IMO.
Whenever Mama Dukes tells you it’s a bad idea to go, you don’t fucking go. Golden rule
You obviously don’t understand teenagers and victim blaming makes out it’s her fault! Victims aren’t responsible for others actions 😡

These divers have a job I really do not envy, imagine feeling your way through the waters and how traumatizing it must be the things they see. I have extreme respect for them.
There's a popular CZcams channel called "Adventures with Purpose", a professional dive team that travels the USA locating and removing vehicles from waterways using sonar equipment, but they've also solved something like seven missing persons' cases so far, volunteering their skills to families trying to locate loved ones and get closure. They know what to expect when it comes to remains, and have a protocol to ensure that the families don't see, warning them that they don't want to remember their loved ones that way. They don't show the remains on video out of respect, and they also cover the vehicle with a tarp as it's pulled up, to maintain some dignity for the deceased. It does take a toll on the divers to view human remains. I definitely recommend the channel, especially the videos about solving the missing person cases. They're an emotional rollercoaster.
One time i dove under, opened my eyes, and a giant bass was about two inches from my face. I screamed under water and it swam away. I couldnt imagine finding a body.
These divers are real heroes........ all of them everywhere. I give them so much credit.
True...but I believe that they do not feel trauma from it.
but I still prefer that over cutting up dead bodies like autopsy 🤔😁
Why are the police saying children, when they are all teenagers, they knew what they were doing.
Because we as a society have a weird view that teens are still "children" merely because they have not reached the magical age of 18.
what ever they call them their sentences are to low. they knew what they where doing and it can happen again
Well, as a Teacher, new research recently found teen's brains do not fully mature with regard to impulse control, decision making & consequences until age 25. This contradicts all previously held theory on brain development in children. Also, the statistics show children who grow up in abuse can become desensitised & see it as a norm they model & repeat. Or, they often repeat it to avoid their victim role & take back their lost power. And some will not abuse, but will be attracted to abusers in later life as it's familiar & abuse is what they think relationships are about..

It's Canada. Justice system is a joke.
This is another example why school administrators, teachers, employees should pay more attention to the kids and keep a keen eye on bullies or suspected bullies.
Parents should be teaching their children when the children are young. Instead their daughters are "princesses" and their sons are "buddy". We are raising narcissists.
I am a Canadian, & totally ashamed of their 'so called' Justice System !. Are you kidding me ?!. Change that law, before more murdering psychopath's get away !!. No wonder kids are the way they are these days😡👿
Lol
It's so cliche to complain about the justice system, but to suggest that the USA or Russian model is in any measurable way better, is simply ridiculous.
And anyone reading this, knows what I mean too. People will comment things on a video like "your country is so soft, here in Russia this criminal would've been dead in a ditch already" or "if that happened here in Texas, we would've..." and it's all ridiculous.
This murder happened in 1997, and damn right people should advocate for positive change and always evolve as a society! Previous cases/court rulings absolutely change as we see in hindsight how ineffective/too harsh or lenient sentences are, etc. Honestly if you want a "wait what??!" moment, google "Vince Li" and you'll see that a guy cut off someone's head on a greyhound bus in 2008 or 2009 and has since been released. Like straight up. That one is baffling, but at least as far as i can assume, he hasn't killed anyone else since then?
But yeah I understand people on youtube want every single murderer in history to get life in jail with no chance of parole ever, no matter what the circumstances are. No one ever seems to talk about rehabilitation or recidivism, and that makes some sense because of the amplified emotion evoked when watching one of these videos. You (person reading this) is watching true crime documentaries because they're interesting and fascinating, not simply because you care about humanity.
It's satisfying watching these when the killer is caught at the end and put in jail forever, but think with your head and not with your heart when suggesting how to improve a society. The punishment wouldn't have prevented this murder, even though it's difficult to be anything but angry at those idiot kids. When you watch these, you get mad at the murderers. It's like, "just leave people alone!" you didn't have to go out of your way to destroy someone else's life. Man, it's just so tragic but try not to do the thing us guys do and just immediately spit out a simple solution.
the sentence was given more than a decade ago. I hope there have been some changes made by now.
@@davidmetzler6670 NO ONE WHO KILL CANT. BE REHABILITATED NOPE NOPE THEY DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN
@Leah, there are exceptions out there to prove you wrong. Just because something is often one way doesn't mean it's always one way. The world isn't actually as black and white as it is in your head.
They called the perpetrators 'kids' like 50 times, while they were all teens/adolescents. It makes them seem innocent while they were the perpetrators and accountable for their actions.
They are kids, but evil
Ones.
Society loves to try and justify murderers and crimin@ls by calling them "kids" as a way to lower sentences and/or avoid accountability. Yes, minors doesn't mean less guilty or unaware of the actions they committed. They sure know the difference between right and wrong. There will always be people who tries to be lenient towards them for the simple fact of being underage. The day we change that mindset and charge them like adults, things will change for the better.
There are not only kids and adults.
You don't go from a kid to an adult over a night just because you turn 18.
Kids don’t do stuff like this, kids don’t smoke cigarettes and kill other people
Well, one of them was 13. i do believe i would also refer to a 13 year old as a child. But children can also be murderers. So many cases have proved that to be true...
Justice was NOT served. They should both spend the rest of their lives in prison with hardened criminals who can teach them a lesson. They should be in prison enduring the same kind of bullying as they put Rena through for as long as Rena is dead. People wonder why there is so much crime and this is a perfect example. No one is held accountable for the atrocities they commit. They end up getting a light sentence and released into the public to do again what they in essence got away with.
The minute I heard it was Canada I knew the sentences would be light.
It really pisses me off one of the guys talking keeps calling her ‘the missing girl’ even after her body is found, even when he’s describing her getting beat up. CALL HER BY HER NAME, SHE WAS PERSON. RENA.
Reena.
This week, in Belgium, a 14 y.o. girl had a rendez vous with a male friend on a graveyard. In stead of only one boy, five showed up, beat her, raped her and took pictures which were shared on the internet. The girl didn't tell her parents, but when she saw the pictures online, she committed suicide. Again, a very tragic story, involving nothing but very very disturbed and dangerous teenagers. Some people think back to that period of being a teen with sweetness and romantic feelings, but for many, the end of that period wasn't a bad thing at all. This docu here shows it aren't just boys who can be real monsters, but girls too can hate with soooo much hate they do terrible things. Maybe out of frustration, out of rage, maybe as a result of - to a certain degree - understandable escalation of bad events in their life. But that understanding to a certain degree never, absolutelty never can mean that a murder or even a serious beating etc. should be "accepted".
@Benoit Vanhees Very well said. I'm almost 60 and always shocked by teens murdering each other, but social media didn't exist when I was that age.
more than horrible, you have to know where your kids are and what they are doing
There was the mention of the formation of a street gang which is part of the rap music culture. The Lord of The Flies mentality often asks member to commit crimes to gain status or street cred, as they call it.
@@gwens5093 rap music culture... That sounds like a double contradictio in terminis in my ears... :0)))
Initiation rituals are common in all organized criminal enterprises, including white collar crime. The maffia has them, the more extreme free masons too. So no one can "rat", without harm him- or herself... A subtle balance of terror...
I was thinking ‘’that can’t be real’’ and had a look at that news … I lost a little bit more of my faith in humanity.
I believe this tragedy could have been avoided had those teenage bullies been disciplined as they grew up. Children taught to treat others as they would like to be treated would never have done this.
And there is your answer. Bad parenting! Broken homes, drunken parents.
I think three of them were in a group home and they learned to play the game.
Depends what you mean by “discipline”, kids who face corporeal punishment/emotional neglect are far more likely to act out in violence. The idea that you can beat sense into a child is not based in reality. Consistent, strict parenting with high expectations and consequences fir your actions? Yes. “Discipline” in the traditional sense leads to more acting out, generally.
@@leaharchambault5796 Who said anything about "beating" sense into a child. I have 3 children. All of the disciplined without the use of "aggravated assault" Nowhere did I mention beat the child
More likely than not their parents were bullies, too.
These kids ceased to be “children” when they committed premeditated murder.
One of the police officers stated, "I know it sounds cold" to say it was good to find the body so that we can investigate. Yes, that sounded cold. Not looking for the young lady right away, because she had gone off before, that was cold, too. If one of the daughters of the police unit was missing, you better believe that the police would start looking immediately, not wait for several days. Several other statements by the police sounded "cold," too. The poor young lady didn't have a chance.
I remember this case- incredibly tragic. And the YOA (Young Offenders Act) in Canada is such a joke. Smh. R.I.P. Rena!!! 😭❤
Which year was it??

It's the same in the UK. A rap on the knuckles and that's it. Total load of bollocks x
Canada's infamous Young Offenders Act. Due to stuff like the they changed it ...slightly....and gave it another name.
Some of the most cruel and brutal crimes are committed by teens. It's terrifying to think what these teens will be capable of when they have the means of adults.
MEAN GIRLS are a reality. They roam like preditors in the shopping malls. Don't do malls at all anymore.....no loss.
At least a sizeable portion of the time, teens that do brutal things will grow up to become decent people, and live to regret what they've done. Of course, many do not. The brain, especially the portion in charge of morality, isn't fully grown until 25 years of age. Abuse can stunt that development, and often times the person won't even be aware of it. The human brain is incredibly fragile.
And yet somehow we think its a good idea to put all of these teens together in a giant building together 5 days a week for 8 hours and we expect everything to be ok.
AS I understand it to be, Kelly is now free. She had a child while in prison .female Young Offenders are allowed to have their child live with them, nursery and all that, while their mother attends school, inside the prison. Kelly is a psychopath, with no remorse. We will be hearing about her again. RIP Rena
As I understood it, Kelly has two children with a thug/gang member who she met on her mandatory release. He is also in prison. The second pregnancy occurred at a conjugal visit provided by the prison if I remember correctly. Corrections Canada, making more inmates for the future.

I especially take offence when it is said that the "victim did not die in vain" and then they go on to say what "good came from the death." Why does a person have to first die before these changes are made. Whatever happened to prevention rather than reaction?
“Justice has been served” really? 10 years for brutally killing someone? And why those other teenagers who according to Canadian justice “just participated in the beating” didn’t get any punishment? You guys send a message you can almost kill someone, but if they don’t die you are okay.... will these 2 last murderers won’t be charged as well if the victim would have found unconscious and her life would have been saved?
Crap 💩 justice system
Apparently, nowadays, the murderer is the victim, not the victim itself. Unfortunatly.
I agree, we need FAR harsher punishments.
I was watching an episode of Dr. G medical examiner and a man died 30 years after a beating but since he died of complications from the incident, the person that beat him could have been charged for murder! The man died himself by then but I thought the law was pretty great! Strict laws like that should exist everywhere!
All participants were the eventual cause of her death. If she wasn't beaten so badly she wouldn't have been around for the final 2 to catch up to her . The last 2 yes did the final dead but all are to blame .

Teenagers are sociopaths and some are pure evil. If you're different in any way or singled out for punishment for any reason by an adult or teacher when you are a kid then your life becomes hell. It took me until my 60's to give up trying to be accepted and even though I have very few friends I'm much happier. If I could talk to my younger self I would tell me to stop caring and just live your live according to what makes you happy then the years spent turning my heart to stone never needed to happen. RIP to Reena.
WHAT? A sociopath is an antisocial person who has no feeling and emotion. How dare you generalize every person to ever walk the earth I cannot believe someone just said this dumb a statement. And ur point of trying to fit in is in direct contradiction to your point of sociopath if they had no emotion they wouldn’t try to fit in research before you type
Why didn’t those ppl who observed her limping across bridge ask her if she needed help? Surely someone could/ should have intervened? Tragic
It happens everywhere ...... people don't care about nothing only themselves ,greedy, evil, lazy,sick, sickopath etc on this world sad but true

The people who observed her walking across the bridge are the same people that just beat the life out of her. So I think that’s probably why they didn’t help….

There was no real justice for this young girl. All involved will pay for there part.They all were old enough to know what they were doing. There nothing but monsters.
The VAST MAJORITY of people who were abused in their childhood never commit any crime and are not violent. I get sick of the abuse excuse. It isn’t statistically relevant. It just isn’t. Furthermore, there are plenty of criminals, violent and otherwise, who had happy, normal childhoods. Some people are plain old bad and are that way from childhood on.
Abuse sadly is a common trigger but it's not the single cause. It's a combination of genetics, life experiences (Abuse, traumatic events, cultural exposure and beliefs and upbringing), and usually a final trigger: drugs, mental health, loss, humiliation etc. It's statistically relevant when looking at statistics of criminals (especially serial killers, pedophiles and sex offenders but remember that these criminals are the minority compared to the majority of crimes such as thefts or fraud), but its not statistically relevant to statistics on child abuse victims.
No one can deny that mentality ill individuals or intoxicated individuals can do horrendous things and hurt people, BUT, the statistical majority of mentally ill and intoxicated people are non violent.
Statistics are not black and white and you must look at them with context.
I worked in a mental health hospital and alot of people did bad stuff but you're right alot of them didn't have bad childhoods and no mental health condition..There are just some bad people in this world.

The judicial system in Canada is a joke , and I have come to the same conclusion whenever I have watched a case similar to this. It seems like the criminals have more rights than the victim.

It is an extremely sad story and whoever wrote it left out the most important fact.

It might help them to not start developing emotional attachments to the victim(s) in their cases.

They did this at my school too in sixth grade and it T R A U M A T I Z E D Me I think about it all the time to this day
Why did they keep calling her the missing girl? She was no longer missing and she had a name which they new from the beginning. Rena.
That bothered me too.
For me it is easier when they describe the people through their actions or any description that differentiates from others because names can be confusing especially when there are many names involved. It makes it easier for me to identify which one they are talking about.
he is disassociating...some of these policemen look traumatized...he even called warren "the boy"

Yeah, put your kid in foster care, that’ll straighten ‘em up! 🤯
I put my 13 year old daughter into therapeutic foster care. She had mental health concerns and I had researched every possible avenue of care and learned nothing was available in Canada. Mental health downplayed the severity of my daughters mental health issues which intensified over time. She was placed into therapeutic foster care in my desperate attempt to let mental health see the extent of her needs. Ironically as the depth of her needs became known to mental health workers no help was found to be available. When little finances are available limited options or no options exist. Remember behind choices there is a story.

What a fantastic Canadian judicial system! Victims are dumped, predators enjoy their lives, not disturbed by crimes they comitted. They're kids after all...

Why are foster kids allowed to gather without the supervision of an adult? Why didn't the adults involve the kids in some activity like making donuts, playing games, singing etc. to keep them busy?
Well, that would be ideal; but they probably wouldn't be able to ask that of every situation. They probably had a curfew.
Many parents wouldn't allow their normal teens to hang out under a bridge at night. There is no way troubled foster kids should be out at night unsupervised. It's not that hard to organize fun activities. This isn't the first time foster children have murdered because they didn't have normal supervision.
Are you serious? It's one foster child and she was supposed to be going to see her parents.
@@barbarabrooks4747 In an ideal world the foster system would run smoothly, be fully supportive, and provide so many positive opportunities for teens, who'd perfectly behave according to their guardians' wishes. In reality, and as someone who spent time in BC foster care in 1997 at age 14, I can say that the system was (and still is) underfunded, and teenagers are generally going to be rebellious because they're hardwired to test boundaries at that age.

They think they are invincible and are trying to prove they aren’t kids anymore along with finding themselves, it’s honestly a really bad mix. Teenagers are the scariest.

@@R.Oates7902 - Yes I know about UK changing the names of young criminals I don’t follow them somehow after they are released to make sure they are not doing any new crimes. In the US any rapist from any age is added to “sex offenders list” even after they are released and people know if that person live someplace close to them and they extra careful for themselves and their children. That’s mean in US up to now innocent people are protected more than criminals. (I don’t know what the democrats will do now they seem to copy European and Canadian justice systems who protect more the criminals than innocent people).
It's not really a life sentence if they can get out in a few years. I never understand why they would sentence people to life and then parole after 7 years? They always get released as soon as that parole date comes around. sometimes earlier.
40:55 Robert Groves, Crime Scene Analyst examines garment without goves. The re-creations crack me up!
Its hard to watch any crime show but I cant watch Canadian, Australian or British crime shows because the murderers always get like 10 to 20 years, which is sickening. Its almost an incentive to kill since the sentence is so lenient. People talk shit about the US but Ill take our system over a system that protects the criminal and only the criminal. Why dont you all demand harsher sentences? This would breed street justice here. And for those who say our system doesnt deter crime, for murder, we dont give a shit. If someone murders someone else and gets life or the death penalty and people dont learn then that says all you need to know about human nature. Some places behead you and people still murder.
I agree
You are right some sentences outside the US seem too low. But the US take it to an unacceptable level for even minor crimes even to the extent of human rights of the most basic level. In addition in the US there are and have been so many proved cases of innocent victims where the trial was so butched up that the whole judicial system needs to be audited.
Yep, our court system is a joke. I'm in Australia. Police barely even try to solve crimes (short of murder, obviously) because they know their effort will be for nothing. The offender will walk after their 15th "warning".
My ex got drunk, grabbed a gun, and went to another house to shoot his cousin's boyfriend. The guy hid, but my ex's uncle came out, and my ex shot him dead... He has a maximum of 20 years.
And don't get me started on pedophiles. Often, they don't get jail time, and when they do, it's an average of 2-5 years they serve, just to repeatedly be released to victimise another child.
Pedophiles themselves have stated they cannot be cured or rehabilitated, yet they're set free again in no time.
And unlike the US, we don't have a public sex offenders list, as it supposedly violates their rights, so there's no way for the community to tell. That's a major, major issue that disgusts me in this country.
If your justice system is so wonderful why is your murder rate still so bad? Londons murder rate is lower than every major US cities for example. Your justice system is all run for profit, simple as that-it's not about justice (except for the rich), its rarely for the victims (lengths of time in prison doesn't equate to victim satisfaction) there's plenty anecdotal evidence for that, there's barely any focus on rehabilitation so recidivism is extremely high-honestly ours and many other countries justice systems are far from perfect but Americas is not a standard I'd like to aim for
