  • Absolutely Disgusting! Although this reaction image has been used frequently online, nobody knows what exactly the image was referring to. A news broadcast from the early 2000’s, this story has never been uncovered as most airings of this news station has been lost.

    The guy in image is named Bob O'Brien.....and he unfortunately passed away in 2018 at the age of 75.

    I can't help but think of the incident where a guy was keeping girls locked in his house for years, in a normal looking neighborhood. My other thought would be some kind of hoarding situation (possibly with animals).

      i agree with it being some kind of hoarding situation. idk why but it makes me think of the turpin house (which is obviously isn’t)

    I always thought this image was in relation to an s-offender.
    From what I remember there was a man during that time who became a bit of a lolcow on image boards and, due to the fact he would speak unashamedly about his desires, news stations would regularly harass him to farm outrage.
    I could be completely wrong however there were a few similar screenshots from those news segments floating around during that time.

    It's late 2002 to January 25, 2006 because WWOR dropped UPN branding the day after the CW was announced, like most Fox owned UPN affiliates.

    I would say to cut the months when it snows in New Jersey. Cause why would it be sunny in November/December? I don’t live in New Jersey or New York. I think from what you’ve shown/ explained in this video, I would think it would be around March or August of the 2000’s I don’t know if this would help at all but I hope it does.
