When I was 17 and working at Virgin Megastores I had a *massive* crush on a 23 year old guy I worked with. Upon telling him, he said I was attractive, but at 17 I was too young and he didn't think that dating me would have been appropriate (bearing in mind I'm UK based so we were two people of legal age). I was devastated but when I turned 23 the idea of dating a 17 year old was not something I entertained - and I realise now that I'm in my 30s how much of a decent guy he was. 23 being in a 'relationship' with a 12 year old... So many levels of wrong.
I would love to track him down but I don't think he's on any social media platform. We randomly ran into each other when I was 21 and on an awful night out which he ended up rescuing me from but we lost touch after that. I think he's my one that got away.
@@amandab3022 … people come into our lives, some staying … and some passing by leaving warm memories. How blessed are you to have crossed paths with such a decent person. Blessings, live long and happily.
I really feel that with the severity of her crime that she shouldn’t have freedom now nor any of the special treatment she’s receiving. She took her little brothers life so coldly as well as was the reason her parents were murdered. Why should she be given extra care and consideration. She didn’t give that compassion to her little brother
In Oklahoma USA, the executed a guy who killed someone at 14 or 15. The Supreme Court of the United States then ruled it was illegal but too late for all of those minors executed (adults when executed I suppose). I believe they can get life in the US though. This girl got off WAY too easy. WAY too easy.
@@WyattRyeSway your right they still can get life in the USA but no longer can be executed as adults can be. But yes I completely agree with you this girl got off way to easily. She was old enough and competent enough to know what she did to her family was wrong so she should have been given a much longer prison sentence.
I understand that he was the “adult” in this case, but can’t get my mind around the fact that he is in jail and she’s just moseying along living her life as if nothing happened
@@6AlphaMikeCharlie9 - Hey, yeah. Let's do like the USA, and put 11 or 12 year olds in adult prisons, so that if they ever get paroled, after being raped & abused multiple times a day, they have ZERO chance of being rehabilitated. In fact, they'll be 100% sociopaths. Now, I don't agree with all their decisions here (trust me on that one), but I DO know that: 1) The crown/prosecutor's story is often just that - a story; not the truth. 2) There are MANY followers that have killed that would have NEVER killed without the leader. Especially someone twice their age. Those kids have real capability of being rehabilitated (I know that your culture is more about revenge). 3) I was APPALLED when I found out that young children can be put in an adult jail with adult inmates. It's terrifying for adults! Putting CHILDREN IN THERE TO GET CONSTANTLY RAPED?! I don't CARE what they've done. The state should do better. Your country doesn't seem interested in rehabilitation, and since privatized jail is now a business in the US, that judges often invest in, WAY more people are going to jail then should be. And since you often don't even supply education, how are these people supposed to change their lives around?
How often have you relied on your parents throughout your life? She never will, and she knows why. It's not like nothing happened. But, she WAS groomed. Eleven years old. She would basically do ANYTHING she thinks he would like. We don't know the entire story here either, but eleven is INCREDIBLY young and naive.
The movie Ginger Snaps mirrors Jasmine's personality a lot more than Natural Born Killers: a goth girl obssesed with dark culture gets bitten by a werewolf and she slowly transforms into a beast, and her younger sister tries to prevent her from becomming a monster. In this case, Jasmine was that goth girl bitten by her "300 year old werewolf" boyfriend, turning her into one of his kind. The younger sister somehow mirrors Jasmine's little brother.
I’m appalled at what sentence( if that’s what you call it) she got for such a vile disgusting act she played part in and on her own family.And now she’s free to live a new life and pretend the life she had before doesn’t exist, so her new friends,husband etc will never know who she was and what she did wow just blows my mind, I’m with you Emma I wouldn’t want her dating my son or being my daughters friend gives me chills, thanks once again for bringing this to us love your work
@Slim Dusty Not necessarily. She just snapped after years of not getting the support she needed. She was also a law-abiding kid. Picture-perfect family on the surface. Run of the mill kids should likewise get the same amount of support. Otherwise they'll do something, like, say have their so-called "boyfriend" murder their whole family.
Just wanted to say I always appreciate your take on these cases: your use of dry wit to take the edge off the horror, combined with your boundless compassion & empathy for victims always makes for a fascinating and edifying watch. I'm always left feeling thoughtful and educated after your videos. Thanks so much for doing this.
As an American living in Calgary, Alberta for 16+ years I have never failed to be appalled by the so-called “justice system”. Truly evil crimes never seem to receive the sentences they mandate. I have documented many of them. As a liberal, anti death sentence person, I simply cannot get a grip on why the Canadian system fails victims so miserably. Jasmine’s family would be “proud”. Yeah. On what planet.
If I had a 23 year old friend who was dating a literal child aged 12, 13 whatever I'd have reported them longggg before he would've said she's running away.
the part about the light saber made me tear up. usually these cases don't get to me too badly, but for some reason, that really hit home. he was just a child, may that family rest in peace. thank you for your thoughtful coverage of this case and many others :)
The fact that Jasmine Richardson is still out there utterly disgusts me. How can someone who killed their own 8 year old brother in such a brutal and savage way be let back into society like that? And if Jeremy is still alive, I hope he gets what he deserves. People like these don't deserve freedom. Keep up the amazing work Emma, you're doing great.
As a Canadian, in my opinion, the law is waaay to easy on hoards of ppl. There was an incident even of a man in Manitoba on a grey hound bus that decapitated and ate parts of him and gave him ohhh... it was under 10 years in a psych ward and he’s out roaming the streets again. The law is a joke in many cases.
I am from Mexico, but I was in Calgary in July 2007. IIRC, it was on the 7th she was found guilty and given 10 years only ( I very specifically remember that date because I was in the West Edmonton Mall that day) It was everything people talked about that day. I remember my english teacher at the time taught me the idiom "Justice in Canada is nothing but a slap on the hand" precisely quoting this case lmao. But like FUCKING NO ONE agreed on this bullshit law that prevented her to get away yet MP keep passing these idiot laws people freaking abhor. I thought it was endearing people had nothing else to talk about but this case at the moment (it went on and on for days or weeks, pretty much until I left in August) I thought it was endearing this was the most newsworthy thing happening while back home the whole war on drugs shit was spiraling out of control and every time I turned on the TV I would hear about horrible shit like people being thrown sliced into pieces in public plazas, mass graves, public shootouts and shit of that kind. But yeah man, fix that shit. Politicians have their head up their arses when they come with this bullcrap, obviously they aim more for reintegration rather than punitive punishment but there should be exceptions for incredibly vile and reprehensible acts such as these, smh.
Hey I know exactly what case u mean I heard it on the sword and scale podcast that was the most shocking in the sense of the sentenceing 10 years too lenient I think he should have got 25 to 30 years indefnant then he goes for after that time then maybe consider release if good behaviour has remorse and if he has to take medication to help him and regular therapy then yh should happen but 10 years for that is just too lenient when heard that my eyebrows went up and I said that bs and don't even know how Paul bernado Is eligible for parole after killing 3 girls and loads of rapes he way too dangerous to ever be relesed his partner karla got off lightly aswell she was more involved then she made out yh Canada system seems too lenient espcilly them 2 cases I just said I do believe people can change and be better people really want to but some won't and don't and never will and them people shudont be in any community too dangerous
I hope you can cover Paris Bennett soon. This intrigues me so much. A seemingly loving son and brother basically pretending the whole time and being a total psychopath. Very scary and fascinating
Piers morgan did a good doc on Paris Bennett, I'd really like to get Emma's take on him but I'd love to get her take on his mum. What a complex relationship
@@snuffymclarron1753 I think it would be hard for most mothers to cut off contact with their child, even after they've done something as awful as Paris did. I, on the other hand, would 100% would cut off all contact. However, I think it's my autism that would allow it to be that black and white for me
I feel angry that jasmine has not really been punished for her role in the murdered and the fact that she’s now a free person with a new identity is so scary 😦 it’s confusing as I believe like you said she was also a victim but still ....😳ps thankyou for making these videos I find them fascinating and your way of breaking down what you’ve analysed keeps me glued to the screen 🤣🥰
So basically she got away with it with no real punishment. Her extended family stood by her : she got her education and walks away with NO criminal record?? I no she was a child but ther is something evil ther.
Please can you cover the Menendez brothers? And also what’s your opinion on them and everything going on with trying to release them atm? Love the videos!!❤️
This is why I’d love it to be covered because I honestly don’t really know much about it all other than the one sided American documentary’s painting them as brats, which I don’t believe was the truth. And Emma covers these so well! Would love to learn about it all properly, Hopfully she sees this!!☺️
The ability to coldly cut her 8 years old brother’s throat and the inclination to laugh about it later is not something I think can be corrected by therapy or education. Let’s hope that this young woman values her freedom too much to ever risk losing it by allowing her inner demons to come out and slay again.
The sarcastic "i never seen you be a werewolf" 😅 i love how you can take a case and be so sympathetic and empathetic to the victims of these horrible humans and still put a humorous spin on it, i have yet to watch a video of yours and not laugh. I love that because it takes some of the heaviness of listening to these heartwrenching cases and makes it so much more bearable ❤ Rest in peace to these poor people 🙏
Embrace whoever you are as long as you are comfortable in your own skin and feel confident. Former goth/hXC kid from like 2010...Guess now I fall under that skater/surfer vibe. Had 58mm ears, 16mm labret, heavily tattooed from throat downwards and having started at 18....13yrs later and I still haven't thought "Owwwww I'll regret this when I'm 'older" 😂 Do whatever makes you happy as you only get the one chance! I still regret not dreading my hair after growing it for 2.5yrs.... So make sure you don't make the same mistake and regret not doing something you really want to😭 Namaste 🙏
@@marcusjay8103 for sure, I agree with that, if it's a phase so be it ^.^ I'm just into darker shit and goth music.. just my style has gotten a little less extreme
Werewolf and 300 years old?! Fascinating🧐 I wasn’t able to watch last week I was only able to see the intro. So I saved that one so I can binge watch it with this one😄🤙 No need to set a reminder I know when it’s time for Emma Kenny🤗🙌
Interesting that some people react to childhood trauma by harming themselves while others harm those around them. Wondering if this kind of reaction can be changed through therapy or if we always react in the same fundamental way?
It depends on the individuals willingness to admit trauma, confront the the negative coping mechanism and find a way more suitable way to deal with life. Speaking from experience.
Absolutely brilliant, your analysis of the matter is so nuianced and, frankly, fair. That kind of level-headedness and articulation when discussing a case like this is nearly impossible to maintain. I really enjoyed listening to your take on it.
You are very good at explaining psychology. It makes much more interesting to listen to these stories. And learn some thing to make understand the scary world we live in and make it safer maybe.
Every episode I've watched so far is so insightful and thought provoking. Emma always has something interesting to add and has allowed me to view old cases I've covered before, but from a totally different perspective with fresh 'viewpoints'. She is so well educated on the deeper psychological side of these cases and brings so much empathy along with her own super confident opinions and 'hot takes'. Then to top it off, the production level is crazy high and her presentation style is impeccable! Got a really natural & relaxed vibe to the videos which I haven't come across on any other crime channel. Makes watching 1hr - 1.5hr content so easy and enjoyable. I'm totally hooked and glued to the screen from start to finish 😍
Wow, Emma, what a case. I know she was a child still at 12, but she was old enough to know murder is wrong. I find it v worrying that she's just getting on with her life after that, with no record and no monitoring. Expertly presented case with great analysis. (PS I've got a fabulous The Mission t-shirt that you'd love, I'm sure! I think we must be the same age as I remember them from secondary school time too!)
Really intriguing and interesting tonight. Thank you so much for doing this Emma. Sending you and everyone loads of love, positive vibes and big hugs. Take care xx
Just popped in to see your take on this particular case. I live in Medicine Hat, the city it happened in, and it’s very famous here. Small city, things like this impact big. The Steinke family still lives here, and every once and awhile you might see the last name pop up in your life around here
Is this also the best part of anyone’s Sunday evening or am I incredibly sad that it’s mine? 🙈 Can’t help but love Emma though, the facts but also the brutal honesty rather than just being impartial and trying to stay in neutral. It’s nice to hear facts on the case but actually have real emotions attached to it. I’ve always loved Emma on TV programs but Emma on CZcams...totally different ball game and she’s winning by a mile!
I think the way you cover crime is stellar. The tone of your voice addressing different elements, makes it such that the story can be followed without having to watch it - an added bonus.
Your videos just keep getting better and better ❤️ would you ever do a video on Pazuzu Algarad? Jeremy Steinke really reminded me of him in certain ways! Thanks for being awesome!
I have to say Emma this was one of the best so far, it certainly does leave you with a sense of was justice actually done as regards these terrible murders? Very very dark, thanks so much❤️💕
Thanks again Emma for covering another interesting case and the way you go indepth in each case is amazing, the way you tell the story in a way that always captures our attention. Love your channel xx
Thanks Emma. I love your considered analyses & careful pacing. You make a grim topic interesting & engaging, without being salacious. I’m a solid new subscriber!
Thank you so much for being so real when talking about these awful crimes. I love that your motherly instincts are so well balanced by your scientific evaluation. Live for your weekly uploads.
I’m pleased this is covered as there is very little around it but it does as a parent make you really think how ‘phases’ and changes can cause such devastation
Emma just gets better and better! Your videos are so educational and a true analysis of the minds of some of the most evil in our society. I love your approach. You are incredibly articulate and speak to your audience as friends. Phew! I would have serious concerns about Jasmin being released. Poor citizens of Canada. Thank you, yet again for an amazing video. The work you put into your channel is so evident 😊❤
I’m addicted to your channel - just awesome content on a level we all can understand- no mumbo jumbo physiological words just layman’s terms we all understand. Your informal approach is just so lovely although I’m used to you suited and booted for the t.v. This feels like you speak as you feel and I just love that, Emma please continue your work - you are an awesome lady. Xx
Always love your videos! Especially how you take the time to explain each perspective and how it affects the persons behavior, although it might not be the direct cause of their actions. In the end, it's only their perspective and thought process that leads to their decisions.
First of all rip to the victims involved in this case. 😔 However, every Sunday I look forward to a new case covered by you emma! You are amazing at being able to be sympathetic yet giving an unbiased view on the whole story. I look forward to a Sunday evening and a new true crime case!
Terrifying that she’s out there living life blending in , as are others who have done horrendous things and are given new identities. That’s a scary thought 😩 Amazing video as always Emma ,Thankyou 👑xxx
SIDE NOTE: My own daughters (all three!!) where born in '92 and '94 (twins)- so are RIGHT in HER age range!!!😬😳😱 *Note to self- try keeping tabs on daughters' female "friends"*
I had no idea laws in Canada were of this nature. I would love to know if she was remorseful and truly changed. I wonder if anybody from the judicial system keeps up with her whereabouts? I would hope they would track her somehow and make sure she’s behaving. What a sad story! It’s hard to understand how things go so dark. Thanks Emma! Enjoy your content!
I believe she is residing in Calgary. She attended the university there but can't confirm she still resides in Calgary. Her life after release has been kept pretty private due to her safety just like she also changed her name. Now that she is older she says she is remorseful and misses her parents and brother blah blah blah. I live in Medicine hat. I have been here for 24 yrs so I was here when this happened.
Having watched several of your videos talking about puberty, your own experience and the several forms it can take with different people, honestly makes me wonder if I went through puberty at all 😂…
You have the best music and intro to these true crime cases. I watch many channels. Its your in depth and professional insight that truly shines. Looking forward to your next case Emma.
Absolutely love your take on these cases. Love the fact you're educated and experienced in this field but always you have a no BS attitude to the horrific deeds these people commit. I think it's so very important to understand the background and childhood events that shape their lives when they have these extreme traumatic abusive childhoods like the Gypsy Rose case. I don't think she should have received the sentence she did due to the absolute emotional abuse and lack of control over her body and identity that led to her actions. I would love to see you cover that one. However when it's situations like this it blows my mind.
Emma, you are so cool on every single level 👌🏻. Been watching you for many, many years and I'm loving your channel 🤩. The way you talk is so awesome, you look into the camera so effectively that I feel like I'm sitting right in front of you and you're a friend I'm chatting to ❤️. Love from South Africa
I said I was watching your every move...I'm still here emma. Your really good at this CZcams business. You speak how it is, I'm enjoying all your videos so far 👍 I look forward to them every week now.
51:00 imagine that poor lad - calling to play with his mate and seeing a dead body and getting told sorry your friend had been killed - so much collateral damage if that’s the right word , like basically there’s so many other victims of this crime friends relatives etc even the shop keeper who they used to say buy their daily paper off ya know / so sad 😭
Talking about Goths not sure if you've covered the case of Sophie Lancaster or not but please do Emma. It's horrific but thought provoking highlighting how certain individuals treat people who just dress a bit differently.
I actually knew this family personally. They lived next door to the guy I dated at the time and his family . It was brutal. Medicine Hat has never been the same since then.
@lonelywolf1992 I actually went into psychology and just by the grace of God ended up being her “counsellor “ when we did our masters at the youth offender centre . I will never forget how she explained slicing her little brothers throat
I know it's been covered by others already but I would really enjoy Emma's take on the girls who stabbed their friend for Slender Man, if she hasn't already. I think that case is REALLY interesting psychology-wise and I firmly believe Emma's opinion would add a lot of interesting insight to that case.
I think that when it comes to killers or even serious offenders being released there are only really 2 questions that need to be answered to reach a conclusion. 1- would you want them living next door to yourself or a loved one, and 2- is their life as "deemed rehabilitated" worth more than the lives of the innocent public should they then go on to re-offend? I think in every single circumstance the answer would be a resounding no. If these people are concluded to be rehabilitated and recovered (and punished) enough that prison is no longer a suitable environment then maybe some sort of communal living situation should be explored whereby a "normal" living environment exists but is still 100% segregated from the rest of society. I dont think that people who commit heinous acts should ever be given the opportunity to reoffend in the general population.
Really got me when Emma said Jacob was holding his light-sabre possibly to defend himself 😔 it’s utterly heart wrenching poor innocent little soul. One of my daughters is a year older. Doesn’t bare thinking about 😢
Emma, I’m obsessed with True Crime. I watch so much CZcams content & I’ve watched you for years on tv. You are my FAVOURITE CZcams crime channel. Love your insight & in-depth knowledge. Keep smashing it ❤️
Loving the intro, you're doing a great job educating us about what's going on in the real world, it's not all fairytales and unicorn dust, i know Medicine Hat really well, we used to train there with the British army ,

17 and 23 is perfectly fine seeing as though females are a lot more mature than males.
But I guess it’s a matter of preference
"Your parents and your brother would be proud of you."
Nah mate, I think they'd rather be alive.
Agree and I wouldn't want that girl rehabilitated or not, anywhere near my loved ones.
@@belleooo me either , I wouldn’t even trust her to feed my cats while I was away , or even water plants for that matter
Prison isn't about revenge stupid.
The neighborhood kid who found the scene was 6 years old. It's so sad, he probably was looking forward to playing ball with his friend Jacob.
Thats him fucked up for life
OMG! That's horrendous. That poor child.

Even in “Natural Born Killers”, they let the little brother live. Just horrific.

I really want to hear Emma's take on Robert Maudsley. He faced so much abuse and grew up to murder child abusers... it's a moral dilemma
Yes 🙌🏼 would love to hear Emma’s take on this! X
I think his prison treatment is shocking, locked up 24/7 under the prison, no contact with people
This case actually breaks my heart! He needed help! Doesn't excuse what he did but the others could of been avoided if he had just been listened to.
Such a sad life, yes he did horrific things but still the poor bloke was totally failed.
Definitely would love to see Emma cover the Robert Maudsley case

I thought it was endearing people had nothing else to talk about but this case at the moment (it went on and on for days or weeks, pretty much until I left in August) I thought it was endearing this was the most newsworthy thing happening while back home the whole war on drugs shit was spiraling out of control and every time I turned on the TV I would hear about horrible shit like people being thrown sliced into pieces in public plazas, mass graves, public shootouts and shit of that kind.
But yeah man, fix that shit. Politicians have their head up their arses when they come with this bullcrap, obviously they aim more for reintegration rather than punitive punishment but there should be exceptions for incredibly vile and reprehensible acts such as these, smh.
I used to live in Winnipeg and people were obsessed with that guy on the greyhound bus, its all they talked about for ages! Gross.
Hey I know exactly what case u mean I heard it on the sword and scale podcast that was the most shocking in the sense of the sentenceing 10 years too lenient I think he should have got 25 to 30 years indefnant then he goes for after that time then maybe consider release if good behaviour has remorse and if he has to take medication to help him and regular therapy then yh should happen but 10 years for that is just too lenient when heard that my eyebrows went up and I said that bs and don't even know how Paul bernado Is eligible for parole after killing 3 girls and loads of rapes he way too dangerous to ever be relesed his partner karla got off lightly aswell she was more involved then she made out yh Canada system seems too lenient espcilly them 2 cases I just said I do believe people can change and be better people really want to but some won't and don't and never will and them people shudont be in any community too dangerous
Mandy, I invite you to come to Belgium. I promise you, we are even worse when it comes to punishing (severe) criminals.
I hope you can cover Paris Bennett soon. This intrigues me so much. A seemingly loving son and brother basically pretending the whole time and being a total psychopath. Very scary and fascinating
Piers morgan did a good doc on Paris Bennett, I'd really like to get Emma's take on him but I'd love to get her take on his mum. What a complex relationship
@@snuffymclarron1753 I think it would be hard for most mothers to cut off contact with their child, even after they've done something as awful as Paris did. I, on the other hand, would 100% would cut off all contact. However, I think it's my autism that would allow it to be that black and white for me
I would LOVE to hear Emma's take on this case!!
That case has always horrified me. Not just Paris, but his grandmother too.
He is full blown psycho! Omg absolutely terrifying!
I NEVER take a quick Look at The Crimes That I Don’t Know of.....prefer To Watch Emma’s Take On It First.
Roll On Sunday - This one Sounds Mental 😱
I feel angry that jasmine has not really been punished for her role in the murdered and the fact that she’s now a free person with a new identity is so scary 😦 it’s confusing as I believe like you said she was also a victim but still ....😳ps thankyou for making these videos I find them fascinating and your way of breaking down what you’ve analysed keeps me glued to the screen 🤣🥰
So basically she got away with it with no real punishment. Her extended family stood by her : she got her education and walks away with NO criminal record?? I no she was a child but ther is something evil ther.
I’d love to hear you’re opinions on Jamie Bulgers killers
Please can you cover the Menendez brothers? And also what’s your opinion on them and everything going on with trying to release them atm? Love the videos!!❤️
I don't believe they received a fair trial, in the courts nor media. Its an absolute tragedy and travesty
This is why I’d love it to be covered because I honestly don’t really know much about it all other than the one sided American documentary’s painting them as brats, which I don’t believe was the truth. And Emma covers these so well! Would love to learn about it all properly, Hopfully she sees this!!☺️
"The next minute they're on fire in my head" 🤣
The ability to coldly cut her 8 years old brother’s throat and the inclination to laugh about it later is not something I think can be corrected by therapy or education. Let’s hope that this young woman values her freedom too much to ever risk losing it by allowing her inner demons to come out and slay again.
I wager she’ll continue to hurt others, even if she doesn’t kill anyone else. As Emma said, who’d trust her near kids? She belongs in prison for life.
The sarcastic "i never seen you be a werewolf" 😅 i love how you can take a case and be so sympathetic and empathetic to the victims of these horrible humans and still put a humorous spin on it, i have yet to watch a video of yours and not laugh. I love that because it takes some of the heaviness of listening to these heartwrenching cases and makes it so much more bearable ❤ Rest in peace to these poor people 🙏
@donnabuckey6117 very well said !! that's how I feel as well. And yes she's hilarious.
The fact that you were a goth makes me appreciate u even more, your content is amazing and I love your unashamed opinions. -from a current goth
Embrace whoever you are as long as you are comfortable in your own skin and feel confident.
Former goth/hXC kid from like 2010...Guess now I fall under that skater/surfer vibe. Had 58mm ears, 16mm labret, heavily tattooed from throat downwards and having started at 18....13yrs later and I still haven't thought "Owwwww I'll regret this when I'm 'older" 😂
Do whatever makes you happy as you only get the one chance! I still regret not dreading my hair after growing it for 2.5yrs.... So make sure you don't make the same mistake and regret not doing something you really want to😭
Namaste 🙏
@@marcusjay8103 for sure, I agree with that, if it's a phase so be it ^.^ I'm just into darker shit and goth music.. just my style has gotten a little less extreme
@@marcusjay8103 what does "hXC" means? I'm a 30yrs old millennial so this might be why I'm not familiar with that term.
Werewolf and 300 years old?! Fascinating🧐 I wasn’t able to watch last week I was only able to see the intro. So I saved that one so I can binge watch it with this one😄🤙 No need to set a reminder I know when it’s time for Emma Kenny🤗🙌
Interesting that some people react to childhood trauma by harming themselves while others harm those around them. Wondering if this kind of reaction can be changed through therapy or if we always react in the same fundamental way?
THIS.
It depends on the individuals willingness to admit trauma, confront the the negative coping mechanism and find a way more suitable way to deal with life. Speaking from experience.
Just turned in. Never heard of this one before ! How can a 12 year old do this 😩
Rock on Emma x
The you aren't a Werewolf bit is v.funny.
Absolutely brilliant, your analysis of the matter is so nuianced and, frankly, fair. That kind of level-headedness and articulation when discussing a case like this is nearly impossible to maintain. I really enjoyed listening to your take on it.
You are very good at explaining psychology. It makes much more interesting to listen to these stories. And learn some thing to make understand the scary world we live in and make it safer maybe.
I live for your uploads on a sunday evening Emma. You give us a real insight into the lives of all the people in each story love it👌
Every episode I've watched so far is so insightful and thought provoking.
Emma always has something interesting to add and has allowed me to view old cases I've covered before, but from a totally different perspective with fresh 'viewpoints'.
She is so well educated on the deeper psychological side of these cases and brings so much empathy along with her own super confident opinions and 'hot takes'.
Then to top it off, the production level is crazy high and her presentation style is impeccable!
Got a really natural & relaxed vibe to the videos which I haven't come across on any other crime channel. Makes watching 1hr - 1.5hr content so easy and enjoyable. I'm totally hooked and glued to the screen from start to finish 😍
Wow, Emma, what a case. I know she was a child still at 12, but she was old enough to know murder is wrong. I find it v worrying that she's just getting on with her life after that, with no record and no monitoring. Expertly presented case with great analysis. (PS I've got a fabulous The Mission t-shirt that you'd love, I'm sure! I think we must be the same age as I remember them from secondary school time too!)
i remember watching you on tv & always enjoyed your take on the cases. so happy to find your channel. subscribed & looking forward to more episodes 💛
Really intriguing and interesting tonight. Thank you so much for doing this Emma. Sending you and everyone loads of love, positive vibes and big hugs. Take care xx
My favorite part of these are Emma's band attire 🥰
Can someone please make a giff of Emma's facial expressions? The werewolf bit had me in stitches, that's literally how I'd react 😂🤣😂
Omg yes!! She had me crying 😂😂😂
Just popped in to see your take on this particular case. I live in Medicine Hat, the city it happened in, and it’s very famous here. Small city, things like this impact big. The Steinke family still lives here, and every once and awhile you might see the last name pop up in your life around here
Is this also the best part of anyone’s Sunday evening or am I incredibly sad that it’s mine? 🙈
Can’t help but love Emma though, the facts but also the brutal honesty rather than just being impartial and trying to stay in neutral.
It’s nice to hear facts on the case but actually have real emotions attached to it.
I’ve always loved Emma on TV programs but Emma on CZcams...totally different ball game and she’s winning by a mile!
I think the way you cover crime is stellar. The tone of your voice addressing different elements, makes it such that the story can be followed without having to watch it - an added bonus.
Your videos just keep getting better and better ❤️ would you ever do a video on Pazuzu Algarad? Jeremy Steinke really reminded me of him in certain ways! Thanks for being awesome!
I have to say Emma this was one of the best so far, it certainly does leave you with a sense of was justice actually done as regards these terrible murders? Very very dark, thanks so much❤️💕
Thanks again Emma for covering another interesting case and the way you go indepth in each case is amazing, the way you tell the story in a way that always captures our attention. Love your channel xx
Thanks Emma. I love your considered analyses & careful pacing. You make a grim topic interesting & engaging, without being salacious. I’m a solid new subscriber!
Thank you so much for being so real when talking about these awful crimes. I love that your motherly instincts are so well balanced by your scientific evaluation. Live for your weekly uploads.
Emma I wish I had a friend like you. Would be up all night just talking with you. Your words are of good quality. Bless
I’m pleased this is covered as there is very little around it but it does as a parent make you really think how ‘phases’ and changes can cause such devastation
Emma just gets better and better! Your videos are so educational and a true analysis of the minds of some of the most evil in our society. I love your approach. You are incredibly articulate and speak to your audience as friends. Phew! I would have serious concerns about Jasmin being released. Poor citizens of Canada. Thank you, yet again for an amazing video. The work you put into your channel is so evident 😊❤
Emma: that's what a 23 year old would day!
Me, 23 year old: 👁👄👁
Emma: right?!
Me: absolutely
Love you to bits Emma!! Can’t wait for this video 💜💜
Wow! What an amazing opportunity the Canadian justice system gives young psychopaths.
Em, I love your intro music. It sets the mood for the deep dive!!! Best wishes from Texas USA!!!
I’m addicted to your channel - just awesome content on a level we all can understand- no mumbo jumbo physiological words just layman’s terms we all understand. Your informal approach is just so lovely although I’m used to you suited and booted for the t.v. This feels like you speak as you feel and I just love that, Emma please continue your work - you are an awesome lady. Xx
The fact you're also spiritual has made me love you even more 😂 watched this video late catching up! Very well covered as always ❤️
Always love your videos! Especially how you take the time to explain each perspective and how it affects the persons behavior, although it might not be the direct cause of their actions. In the end, it's only their perspective and thought process that leads to their decisions.
Off the deep subject for a second, but LOVE the AC/DC t- shirt...nice touch!
#1 I've never seen you become a werewolf 😂😂
So interesting Emma I love the way you put your emotions into it. 👍🏼 huge hugs 🤗
True crime queen, Emma Kenny!! 👑 ❤️👏💐🤩
Your the reason I look forward to Sundays 😁
I am a Canadian and I don't feel safe. I hate our system sometimes...
Despicable
You explain things very well and I agree with everything you comment on. With your educational background, your channel is perfect. I love you Emma!
First of all rip to the victims involved in this case. 😔 However, every Sunday I look forward to a new case covered by you emma! You are amazing at being able to be sympathetic yet giving an unbiased view on the whole story. I look forward to a Sunday evening and a new true crime case!
Terrifying that she’s out there living life blending in , as are others who have done horrendous things and are given new identities. That’s a scary thought 😩 Amazing video as always Emma ,Thankyou 👑xxx
Living in Canada 🇨🇦 and feeling utterly SICK that she could possibly be MY NEIGHBOUR!!! 🤮🤢
SIDE NOTE: My own daughters (all three!!) where born in '92 and '94 (twins)- so are RIGHT in HER age range!!!😬😳😱
*Note to self- try keeping tabs on daughters' female "friends"*
I live in Medicine Hat and ws here when this all happened. This was the worst crime our city had ever faced.
I had no idea laws in Canada were of this nature. I would love to know if she was remorseful and truly changed. I wonder if anybody from the judicial system keeps up with her whereabouts? I would hope they would track her somehow and make sure she’s behaving. What a sad story! It’s hard to understand how things go so dark. Thanks Emma! Enjoy your content!
I believe she is residing in Calgary. She attended the university there but can't confirm she still resides in Calgary. Her life after release has been kept pretty private due to her safety just like she also changed her name. Now that she is older she says she is remorseful and misses her parents and brother blah blah blah. I live in Medicine hat. I have been here for 24 yrs so I was here when this happened.
The British 😭😭 no words new names rarely life terms
@@Army4life82it was Canada not Britain…..
Having watched several of your videos talking about puberty, your own experience and the several forms it can take with different people, honestly makes me wonder if I went through puberty at all 😂…
You have the best music and intro to these true crime cases. I watch many channels. Its your in depth and professional insight that truly shines. Looking forward to your next case Emma.
Absolutely love your take on these cases. Love the fact you're educated and experienced in this field but always you have a no BS attitude to the horrific deeds these people commit. I think it's so very important to understand the background and childhood events that shape their lives when they have these extreme traumatic abusive childhoods like the Gypsy Rose case. I don't think she should have received the sentence she did due to the absolute emotional abuse and lack of control over her body and identity that led to her actions. I would love to see you cover that one. However when it's situations like this it blows my mind.
Emma, you are so cool on every single level 👌🏻. Been watching you for many, many years and I'm loving your channel 🤩. The way you talk is so awesome, you look into the camera so effectively that I feel like I'm sitting right in front of you and you're a friend I'm chatting to ❤️. Love from South Africa
Thanks Emma! Hello from Australia!💐Love your channel!💐
I said I was watching your every move...I'm still here emma. Your really good at this CZcams business. You speak how it is, I'm enjoying all your videos so far 👍 I look forward to them every week now.
Yeah my favorite channel ❤️ I look forward to Sunday’s at 2 pm.
I really enjoy you're content! Thank you for highlighting so much in to the minds of these people! X
I would love to see some statistics on how successful the rehibilitation stuff works in Canada
Binging all your videos. I have just discovered your channel and I am hooked!! I’ve been looking for a new true crime channel!! ❤️🥰👍
🤣🤣🤣 " Your not... your not.... Your just not - stop "🤣🤣🤣
Hahahah love the little sarcasm in this one - Emmas a legend ❤️✅
emma with the next level content brilliant to see all these vids from you and hope you are keeping well.
Have never heard about this, looking forward to watching, thx Emma. 😊🌷
51:00 imagine that poor lad - calling to play with his mate and seeing a dead body and getting told sorry your friend had been killed - so much collateral damage if that’s the right word , like basically there’s so many other victims of this crime friends relatives etc even the shop keeper who they used to say buy their daily paper off ya know / so sad 😭
Love your insight! Keep up the good work emma!
Talking about Goths not sure if you've covered the case of Sophie Lancaster or not but please do Emma. It's horrific but thought provoking highlighting how certain individuals treat people who just dress a bit differently.
Love your content Emma! Sundays just got a whole lot better 🙂
I actually knew this family personally. They lived next door to the guy I dated at the time and his family . It was brutal. Medicine Hat has never been the same since then.
@lonelywolf1992 she’s in Calgary now
@lonelywolf1992 I actually went into psychology and just by the grace of God ended up being her “counsellor “ when we did our masters at the youth offender centre . I will never forget how she explained slicing her little brothers throat
@lonelywolf1992 she has a new name and as far as I know she has not gone back
@lonelywolf1992 no they never did he
Her family never visited while she was in juvenile
“I’m a 300 year werewolf”
- “you’re literally not, no you’re not” 😂
I’ve definitely fantasised about being on a drip after a night out 😂😅
My daughter has done Emo, goth punk the whole 9 yards, she had green hair once and she is definitely well adjusted, just following me, I was a goth
This story is getting really crazy. I am real glad there was nothing like this when I was a kid. Like in the middle 60s. Thank god
I know it's been covered by others already but I would really enjoy Emma's take on the girls who stabbed their friend for Slender Man, if she hasn't already.
I think that case is REALLY interesting psychology-wise and I firmly believe Emma's opinion would add a lot of interesting insight to that case.
This is a good case for analysis Emma :)
Missed this last night, now it's time for my Emma Kenny fix 👊
I think that when it comes to killers or even serious offenders being released there are only really 2 questions that need to be answered to reach a conclusion. 1- would you want them living next door to yourself or a loved one, and 2- is their life as "deemed rehabilitated" worth more than the lives of the innocent public should they then go on to re-offend? I think in every single circumstance the answer would be a resounding no. If these people are concluded to be rehabilitated and recovered (and punished) enough that prison is no longer a suitable environment then maybe some sort of communal living situation should be explored whereby a "normal" living environment exists but is still 100% segregated from the rest of society. I dont think that people who commit heinous acts should ever be given the opportunity to reoffend in the general population.
Love you Emma. Thank you for all you do.
That was a sobering look at a young child corrupted , but also having a dark soul to begin with. That poor little boy 😢
Really got me when Emma said Jacob was holding his light-sabre possibly to defend himself 😔 it’s utterly heart wrenching poor innocent little soul. One of my daughters is a year older. Doesn’t bare thinking about 😢
how can she be allowed to walk the streets with a new name and new life?? madness!!
Emma, I’m obsessed with True Crime. I watch so much CZcams content & I’ve watched you for years on tv. You are my FAVOURITE CZcams crime channel. Love your insight & in-depth knowledge. Keep smashing it ❤️
Loving the intro, you're doing a great job educating us about what's going on in the real world, it's not all fairytales and unicorn dust, i know Medicine Hat really well, we used to train there with the British army ,
Hi Emma your my fave criminal psychologist loving your channel 💕
Mine too
You absolutely make my Sundays better thanks Emma xx
