Celebrities You Never Knew KILLED Someone · The conspiracy

0:00
Speaker 1: Believe it or not, fame and fortune don't always come
0:03
Speaker 1: with a clean slate. Some of the most well known
0:06
Speaker 1: celebrities have very dark secrets. Oh my god, I can't
0:10
Speaker 1: believe it. And some of these secrets involve very deadly consequences.
0:16
Speaker 1: In this video, we'll be going over some celebrities you
0:18
Speaker 1: may or may not know who have killed people and
0:22
Speaker 1: some in ways you'd never expect. And some of these
0:26
Speaker 1: were not criminally charged, while others were pure accidents. However,
0:30
Speaker 1: this shows that even accidents have life changing results, ones
0:34
Speaker 1: that lead to deaths, crime, conspiracy, cults, serial killers, and murder,
0:40
Speaker 1: all things that I love to consume and I know
0:43
Speaker 1: you do to you sick, twisted, little beautiful, intellectually minded freak.
0:47
Speaker 1: And today we are talking about just that. We are
0:49
Speaker 1: talking about celebrities. We love celebrities. Celebrities we gobble up,
0:53
Speaker 1: we gobble up all the drama and whatnot, and we
0:56
Speaker 1: idolize them, we look up to them. They're like these
0:58
Speaker 1: anomalies that are untouchable, but even they can make mistakes.
1:03
Speaker 1: So let's talk about it without further ado. Let's un
1:05
Speaker 1: Michaela's seatbelts go on five down the highway, slam on
1:08
Speaker 1: the brakes and bust through this windshield into these criminal
1:12
Speaker 1: celebrities together. Ryan Grantham originally best known for his work
1:30
Speaker 1: on Diary of a Wimpy Kid, to eventually reaching bigger
1:34
Speaker 1: shows like Riverdale, Supernatural, and Eye Zombie. However, he would
1:39
Speaker 1: later be known for something much more sinister, and it
1:42
Speaker 1: wouldn't be on a movie set. Right before I get
1:44
Speaker 1: into this, I need to put my freaking glasses on.
1:46
Speaker 1: I can't see shit, all right. So Grantham lived with
1:49
Speaker 1: his mother, Barbara Waite, who was a very supportive and
1:52
Speaker 1: integral figure in his life, and his father, who was
1:56
Speaker 1: quite absent, left his mother at the center of his
1:59
Speaker 1: day to day life, and she was very supportive of
2:02
Speaker 1: his acting life as he started to get larger and
2:04
Speaker 1: larger roles. Starting off as a child star in the industry,
2:08
Speaker 1: what could go wrong? Right? A lot? However, as he
2:12
Speaker 1: got older, it became harder to get more and more roles,
2:16
Speaker 1: as is the business enacting, and this may or may
2:19
Speaker 1: not have inadvertently caused some mental health struggles for Grantham,
2:23
Speaker 1: which we now know from a personal diary that was found.
2:26
Speaker 1: He would write in this diary about how much he
2:29
Speaker 1: hated himself, showing his deteriorating psychological state before the crime
2:34
Speaker 1: was committed. So on March thirty first, twenty twenty in Squamish,
2:37
Speaker 1: British Columbia, weird shadow to b C right now, Ryan
2:40
Speaker 1: Grantham carried out a premeditated murder while his sixty four
2:44
Speaker 1: year old mother was playing piano. He approached her from
2:48
Speaker 1: the back and would shoot her in the head with
2:50
Speaker 1: a twenty twenty caliber rifle. And this act of cold
2:54
Speaker 1: and calculated murder was something he had rehearsed beforehand. Afterwards,
2:59
Speaker 1: he used a GoPro to film his dead mother on
3:03
Speaker 1: the ground, admitting to the murder in a recorded confession,
3:06
Speaker 1: and he did express regret knowing what he had done
3:09
Speaker 1: and his mind was completely made up. However, that wasn't
3:13
Speaker 1: the only murder he wanted to commit, and this is
3:16
Speaker 1: where it gets crazy. After her death, he didn't call
3:20
Speaker 1: the police. Instead, he spends some time at home and
3:23
Speaker 1: set up an unusual scene. He positioned his mother's body
3:27
Speaker 1: on the floor, covering her in a sheet and surrounding
3:30
Speaker 1: her with candles, so obviously a very obvious act of remorse,
3:35
Speaker 1: which like little too late, little too late. Then he
3:39
Speaker 1: would go to his car and prep it and fill
3:42
Speaker 1: his car with weapons, ammunition, a lot of cocktails and
3:46
Speaker 1: camping gear. What he had planned was to kill the
3:49
Speaker 1: Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau. However, in an unusual
3:55
Speaker 1: change of heart, he instead would just drive aimlessly around
3:59
Speaker 1: with all of the stuff in his car, and eventually
4:01
Speaker 1: he thought of heading towards Simon Fraser University to do
4:05
Speaker 1: a mass, which is just horrifying to think about, but
4:08
Speaker 1: yet again, thankfully, he decided not to and began to
4:13
Speaker 1: just drive again aimlessly. And it was much later and
4:16
Speaker 1: he realized that neither of these plans seemed viable, to
4:19
Speaker 1: which he drove himself and turned himself into the Vancouver
4:22
Speaker 1: Police station and he would tell them that he had
4:25
Speaker 1: killed his mother and they would arrest him, and later
4:28
Speaker 1: in March twenty twenty, he would plead guilty to first
4:31
Speaker 1: degree murder for life with no chance of parole until
4:34
Speaker 1: fourteen years later. And most of the information before was
4:37
Speaker 1: learned at the court case, including the go pro video
4:40
Speaker 1: and his diary which explained his mental health decline and
4:43
Speaker 1: the regret he felt for killing his mother. And the
4:45
Speaker 1: video was around four minutes long, detailing what he was
4:49
Speaker 1: going to do. It's really sad to hear, and it
4:52
Speaker 1: shows he was going through clinical depression in the months
4:56
Speaker 1: leading up to the murder. He was feeling urges of
4:58
Speaker 1: wanting to cause harm to and as reported, he had
5:01
Speaker 1: been watching gore videos on the dark web as well,
5:04
Speaker 1: which also just helped fuel his urges. And he himself
5:08
Speaker 1: was wanting to take his own life and just feeling
5:11
Speaker 1: intense feelings of self hatred. So just a really extremely
5:15
Speaker 1: sad situation. And the reason for killing his mother was
5:19
Speaker 1: basically to save her from the crimes he was going
5:23
Speaker 1: to commit. So he felt like so guilty for the
5:25
Speaker 1: crimes he wanted to commit, which would be the murder
5:28
Speaker 1: of Justin Trudeau and potentially a mass shooting at Simon
5:32
Speaker 1: Fraser University. He wanted to save her from going through
5:35
Speaker 1: seeing her son doing that basically, which I mean, obviously
5:38
Speaker 1: is so messed up and wrong, But there's just a
5:42
Speaker 1: little it's just sad. It's just really really sad. Yeah,
5:47
Speaker 1: just a really heartbreaking story and a very recent story
5:51
Speaker 1: as well. But that brings us to our next celebrity,
5:54
Speaker 1: which is Matthew Broderick. So have you seen the movie
5:59
Speaker 1: Inspector used to be one of my faves. Well, then
6:02
Speaker 1: you absolutely know who this guy is, and Inspector Gadget
6:07
Speaker 1: was kind of a kind of a terrible example. Also,
6:09
Speaker 1: by the way, he does have a much more extensive portfolio.
6:12
Speaker 1: What you should know him from was from his most
6:15
Speaker 1: popular performance, which was Ferris Bueller's Day Off, another one
6:20
Speaker 1: of my favorites growing up. This guy was basically the
6:23
Speaker 1: childhood of anyone born before two thousand and four, or
6:26
Speaker 1: at least should have been, because those movies are fantastic.
6:29
Speaker 1: But this guy did not just skip school. He literally,
6:33
Speaker 1: he literally he killed people, which is crazy to think about. Bueller,
6:40
Speaker 1: but born on March twenty first, nineteen sixty two, in Manhattan,
6:44
Speaker 1: New York City, his starting career had him climbing the
6:47
Speaker 1: ladder jumping into films. His first big hit was the
6:50
Speaker 1: movie Wargames in nineteen eighty three. I never watched it,
6:53
Speaker 1: where he was finally establishing himself on the map, and then,
6:56
Speaker 1: of course, his biggest film, arguably Ferris Bueller's Day Off
7:00
Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty six. However, just a year later he
7:04
Speaker 1: would cause a terrible accident. On August fifth, nineteen eighty seven,
7:09
Speaker 1: Broderick was traveling with his co star and also girlfriend
7:13
Speaker 1: Jennifer Gray in Northern Ireland, and Jennifer Gray, for those
7:17
Speaker 1: of you who don't know, was a baby in the corner.
7:19
Speaker 1: Nobody puts baby in the corner. Dirty dancing that baby.
7:23
Speaker 1: And supposedly, while driving a rented car, he drove on
7:26
Speaker 1: the wrong side of the road. Why and some articles
7:33
Speaker 1: say it was because of weather conditions. However, I think
7:36
Speaker 1: the story makes more sense just because he was confused.
7:39
Speaker 1: He is an American after all, so maybe he just
7:42
Speaker 1: didn't immediately think that he was driving on the wrong
7:46
Speaker 1: side of the road, like because the roads are opposite there,
7:49
Speaker 1: so he was driving on the wrong side of the road,
7:51
Speaker 1: but it was the right side of the road for him,
7:53
Speaker 1: if you know what I mean. Obviously not even a
7:56
Speaker 1: little bit of an excuse for what was to happen,
7:59
Speaker 1: but you know, arguably that may have been the reason.
8:03
Speaker 1: But because of this error, he had a head on
8:07
Speaker 1: collision with another car which killed two passengers, Margaret Dougherty
8:12
Speaker 1: who was sixty three and Anna Gallagher who was twenty eight,
8:16
Speaker 1: and Broderick did not lose his life but suffered a
8:19
Speaker 1: fracture to his leg and his ribs, a concussion and
8:23
Speaker 1: a collapsed lung, getting off easy compared to the other
8:26
Speaker 1: two passengers and his passenger Gray got severe whiplash. Again,
8:31
Speaker 1: got off extremely easy comparatively, And after the crash, he
8:34
Speaker 1: would obviously be questioned by police who stated he had
8:38
Speaker 1: no recollection of the crash or why he was on
8:40
Speaker 1: the wrong lane to begin with, and he then was
8:43
Speaker 1: initially charged with causing death by dangerous driving. However, he
8:46
Speaker 1: would somehow avoid this charge. Instead, he would receive a
8:50
Speaker 1: much lesser punishment for careless driving and find around one
8:54
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy five dollars one hundred and seventy five
8:58
Speaker 1: dollars for two people's lives. I'm just speechless from that,
9:07
Speaker 1: but a sentence that could have landed him in prison,
9:10
Speaker 1: he instead received just a small fee, a parking ticket
9:14
Speaker 1: fee basically, and this obviously caused a huge uproar with
9:20
Speaker 1: people absolutely angry he could get away with something so
9:23
Speaker 1: serious with the equivalent of a slap on the wrist,
9:27
Speaker 1: and you could still find posts making fun of him
9:29
Speaker 1: and calling him a murderer, which I don't think he
9:31
Speaker 1: meant to murder anyone, but he was careless and by
9:36
Speaker 1: doing that, he killed two people. But anyway, this somehow
9:39
Speaker 1: did not halt his fame at all, and he would
9:43
Speaker 1: continue to star in hit movies like Soon After and
9:46
Speaker 1: one of, if not his biggest movie of our childhoods.
9:50
Speaker 1: He would play adult Simba in The Lion King in
9:53
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety three, like one of the biggest movies to
9:56
Speaker 1: happen in the nineties. His career now has slowly faltered,
10:00
Speaker 1: still obviously in some big movies and is still acting,
10:03
Speaker 1: but he's now in his sixties, and this is one
10:05
Speaker 1: of the deaths on the list that is really crazy
10:09
Speaker 1: to me. Maybe it's because he was in Ireland, so
10:12
Speaker 1: the courts were just more lenient. I don't know how
10:15
Speaker 1: the judicial system works over there necessarily, but it is
10:18
Speaker 1: extremely weird to me why they would give him such
10:21
Speaker 1: a small fine, especially as such a successful actor. Maybe
10:26
Speaker 1: maybe that's why, which is just even more sick, but again,
10:31
Speaker 1: just incredibly sad. But that is what happened, and that
10:35
Speaker 1: is Broderick's story. And now we move on to Sid Vicious.
10:40
Speaker 1: In the mid nineteen seventies, London's punk scene became the
10:44
Speaker 1: crucible for one of the most iconic and controversial figures
10:48
Speaker 1: in rock history. John Simon Ritchie, later known as Sid Vicious,
10:53
Speaker 1: found himself at the epicenter of this cultural revolution. Despite
10:57
Speaker 1: his limited musical prowess, vicious charismatic presence and embodiment of
11:03
Speaker 1: punk's rebellious spirit quickly propelled him to the prominence within
11:06
Speaker 1: the movement, and Malcolm McLaren, the astute and often provocative
11:10
Speaker 1: manager of the Sex Pistols, recognized the potential in Vicious's
11:15
Speaker 1: raw energy in persona, and in February nineteen seventy seven,
11:18
Speaker 1: McLaren made the strategic decision to recruit Vicious as the
11:22
Speaker 1: band's new bassist, even though he lacked the fundamental skills
11:26
Speaker 1: to play the instrument. He was basically just, you know,
11:28
Speaker 1: a poster boy, and the unconventional choice underscored the punk's
11:32
Speaker 1: ethos that prioritized attitude and authenticity over technical proficiency, and
11:38
Speaker 1: the iconic look that Vicious cultivated spiked hair, leather jackets,
11:44
Speaker 1: and an air of defiance became synonymous within the punk movement.
11:49
Speaker 1: He was just like an idol in the punk movement,
11:51
Speaker 1: and his visual presentation was as much part of his
11:54
Speaker 1: artistry as the musical contributions, if not more so. And
11:57
Speaker 1: vicious style influenced a generation of disaffected youth, providing a
12:03
Speaker 1: template for punk fashion that would endure long after his
12:07
Speaker 1: brief career, and his struggles with substance abuse and self
12:10
Speaker 1: destructive tendencies became inextricably linked with his public persona. Wobble's
12:16
Speaker 1: assessment that Vicious represented the nihilistic, self destructive, dark, completely
12:22
Speaker 1: uncaring side of punk highlighted the duality of his appeal
12:26
Speaker 1: a figure both celebrated and cautionary, and the media's fascination
12:30
Speaker 1: with Vicious disintensified when he became romantically involved with Nancy Spudget.
12:35
Speaker 1: The relationship, tumultuous and often public, captured the imagination of
12:40
Speaker 1: the press and public alike. The portrayal of Sid and
12:44
Speaker 1: Nancy as Romeo and Juliet in Black Leather romanticized their
12:49
Speaker 1: volatile partnership, further elevating Vicious's status as a cultural icon
12:53
Speaker 1: while simultaneously foreshadowing the tragedy that would ultimately unfold. So
12:58
Speaker 1: as the sex still's notoriety reached its zenith, a dark
13:03
Speaker 1: undercurrent was pulling Sid Vicious towards an even more tumultuous fate.
13:08
Speaker 1: At the heart of the tragedy, was Nancy Spongen, a
13:11
Speaker 1: figure whose influence on vicious life would prove both profound
13:15
Speaker 1: and destructive. So in nineteen seventy eight, Vicious and Spongeen
13:19
Speaker 1: relocated to New York City, a move that exacerbated their
13:22
Speaker 1: already problematic drug use, and eyewitness accounts from the time
13:26
Speaker 1: at Chelsea Hotel paint a very grim picture of their lifestyle.
13:30
Speaker 1: The couple was frequently observed in a state of disarray.
13:33
Speaker 1: Their room was littered in refuse, both heavily under the
13:36
Speaker 1: influence of heroin as well, and this environment of squalor
13:40
Speaker 1: and substance abuse just became the backdrop before this tragic
13:44
Speaker 1: event that would have fold. So on October twelfth, nineteen
13:46
Speaker 1: seventy eight, the situation reached its tragic peak when Nancy
13:51
Speaker 1: Spongeen was discovered dead in the couple's room at the
13:54
Speaker 1: Chelsea Hotel. She had sustained a fatal stab wound to
13:58
Speaker 1: the abdomen, and the circums chances surrounding her death remained
14:02
Speaker 1: shrouded in controversy to this day, and Vicious, who was
14:05
Speaker 1: present at the scene, initially confessed to the murder. However,
14:09
Speaker 1: later he would retract his statement, claiming to have been
14:12
Speaker 1: asleep at the time of Spongeon's death, and eyewitness accounts
14:15
Speaker 1: from the Chelsea Hotel provide a nuanced perspective on Vicious'
14:19
Speaker 1: and Spongeen's relationship. Their interactions were characterized by a volatile
14:24
Speaker 1: mix of adoration and violence, a very extremely toxic and
14:29
Speaker 1: unhealthy relationship. While Vicious was known to physically abuse Spongen,
14:33
Speaker 1: he also displayed a very deep affection for her, and
14:36
Speaker 1: this paradoxal dynamic complicates the narrative of their relationship and
14:41
Speaker 1: the events leading to Spongeent's death. And in the aftermath
14:44
Speaker 1: of Spongeon's death, Vicious spiraled further into despair and self destruction,
14:48
Speaker 1: and he would attempt slewer slide shortly after the incident,
14:52
Speaker 1: a clear indication of his mental anguish, and despite being
14:55
Speaker 1: released on bail, Vicious was unable to escape the gravitational
14:59
Speaker 1: pull of his addiction, and on February second, nineteen seventy nine,
15:03
Speaker 1: he would be found dead from a heroin overdose, bringing
15:07
Speaker 1: a very tragic end to his tumultuous life before he
15:11
Speaker 1: could stand trial for sponge AND's death. So we will
15:14
Speaker 1: never know how she died or how the whole thing unfolded.
15:18
Speaker 1: So again, just very very tragic event that brings us
15:22
Speaker 1: to our next celebrity, which I'm sure every single one
15:27
Speaker 1: of you will know, and that is Caitlyn Jenner. Sof
15:31
Speaker 1: Caitlyn Jenner is another one of these tragic tales, once
15:36
Speaker 1: a famed Olympic star to one surrounded by multiple dramas. However,
15:40
Speaker 1: her previous skills as a decathalon world record holder later
15:44
Speaker 1: became a media sensation and carrying the Jenner title. Caitlyn
15:48
Speaker 1: Jenner is obviously directly associated with the Kardashians. Once married
15:52
Speaker 1: to Chris Jenner, and everyone remembers the horrors of keeping
15:56
Speaker 1: up with their Kardashians. The show is still going, which
15:59
Speaker 1: is crazy me. However, this once star full of global
16:03
Speaker 1: success had a horrible accident that resulted in the loss
16:06
Speaker 1: of a life. On February seventh, twenty fifteen, Jenner was
16:11
Speaker 1: driving on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu, California. You've
16:14
Speaker 1: definitely driven down this road in GTA five, but driving
16:18
Speaker 1: a black Cadillac Escalade which was towing a trailer. Another
16:23
Speaker 1: vehicle a head of Jenner was driven by a woman
16:26
Speaker 1: by the name of Kim Howe, who was sixty nine
16:28
Speaker 1: driving her Lexus, eyes focused on the road. However, the
16:31
Speaker 1: woman in front of how had slowed down, driven by
16:35
Speaker 1: a woman named Jessica Steindorf, and because of this, How
16:38
Speaker 1: would break. But Jenner was going too fast and estimated
16:43
Speaker 1: to be going between thirty eight to forty six miles
16:46
Speaker 1: per hour. Jenner would rear end How's Lexus, pushing her
16:50
Speaker 1: into oncoming traffic, and the Lexus was then struck in
16:53
Speaker 1: a head on collision by a hummer, killing Kim Howe
16:57
Speaker 1: on the scene, and to make matters worse, Jenner all
17:00
Speaker 1: so hit that Prius that was in front of how
17:02
Speaker 1: and with no injuries at all. Jenner stayed at the scene,
17:06
Speaker 1: knowing that this was very, very serious. Police would then
17:09
Speaker 1: force Jenner to take a sobriety test and would question her. However,
17:13
Speaker 1: Jenner was not intoxicated, and surveillance footage showed that Jenner
17:17
Speaker 1: was neither texting nor using her phone whatsoever. And I'm
17:20
Speaker 1: not sure exactly how they would tell this from video,
17:23
Speaker 1: but I guess it was slowed down, but what do
17:27
Speaker 1: I know? You know? So she was in her legit
17:30
Speaker 1: legal right, but despite it, she was given criminal charges
17:34
Speaker 1: and in September twenty fifteen, the LA District Attorney's office
17:38
Speaker 1: declined to file charges against her, stating that there was
17:41
Speaker 1: no gross negligence and lack of criminal intent. Although this
17:44
Speaker 1: was not charged federally. Jenner was part of three civil
17:48
Speaker 1: suits from each of the vehicles, one of the step
17:51
Speaker 1: children from how who had no living relatives, the Prius
17:54
Speaker 1: owner Jessica Steindorff, and the Hummer driver, and all of
17:58
Speaker 1: these were settled out of for an undisclosed amount. But
18:02
Speaker 1: we later learned that the Hummer family, that of the
18:05
Speaker 1: Wolf Mellisize or Melosies, sued her upwards of eight hundred
18:09
Speaker 1: thousand dollars, no doubt an amount that would help pay
18:13
Speaker 1: off the emotional toll of being involved in the death
18:16
Speaker 1: of Kim Howe. So it seems as though money just
18:20
Speaker 1: fixed this entire situation and it was shoved under the rug.
18:24
Speaker 1: I mean, it wasn't the tabloids, but I mean I
18:27
Speaker 1: never even heard of it. I was alive during all this.
18:30
Speaker 1: I was an adult, So I don't know. It smells fishy,
18:36
Speaker 1: but I can't. I don't know, I don't know anything.
18:38
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just a reporter. I'm just I'm just
18:40
Speaker 1: the middleman. I'm just telling you what all the facts
18:42
Speaker 1: and next up. I believe a lot of you will
18:44
Speaker 1: be familiar with if you're around my age, you know,
18:47
Speaker 1: ten years younger, ten years older. I feel like you
18:49
Speaker 1: would have seen this guy's face before, but it is
18:52
Speaker 1: Phil Lewis born on February fourteenth, nineteen sixty eight. He
18:57
Speaker 1: began his career acting in various films and show However,
19:00
Speaker 1: his career would be cemented into fame by his performance
19:04
Speaker 1: on the popular Disney Channel show The Sweet Life of
19:07
Speaker 1: Zach and Cody, one of my favorite shows as a kid,
19:10
Speaker 1: as the character Mister Moseby, the hotel manager for the
19:13
Speaker 1: location of the show, the Tipton Hotel, and the show
19:16
Speaker 1: was so successful and able to have around three seasons
19:20
Speaker 1: that it eventually was continued through a spinoff, The Sweet
19:23
Speaker 1: Life on Deck, which also one of my favorite shows
19:25
Speaker 1: as a kid, which was a majority of the same
19:28
Speaker 1: cast except on the cruise ship named the SS Tipton.
19:31
Speaker 1: And this show also ran for about three seasons, and
19:33
Speaker 1: he would continue to work on other projects as the
19:36
Speaker 1: time went on, and he was able to direct some
19:38
Speaker 1: episodes of The Sweet Life and even directed episodes of
19:41
Speaker 1: the alternative shows such as Ant Farm, Austin and Ally,
19:45
Speaker 1: Good Luck, Charlie, Kickin' It and Jesse so very prominent
19:49
Speaker 1: in the Disney world, so he was a staple of
19:51
Speaker 1: many childhoods, including my own, and there were frequent moments
19:55
Speaker 1: in that show that many could reference back to. For me,
19:58
Speaker 1: it was the Prindle scene. I I know it was
20:00
Speaker 1: Brenda's song, but it was also him. I don't know
20:02
Speaker 1: why that scene is caked into my memory. And I
20:06
Speaker 1: was a big fan of mister Mosby. Are you referring
20:09
Speaker 1: to the shift lever that says p R in d L.
20:12
Speaker 1: I that a child Mosby? I know how to stell Prindle. However,
20:15
Speaker 1: mister Moseby aka Phil Lewis actually had a bit of
20:19
Speaker 1: a darker past before the running of these shows, one
20:22
Speaker 1: that many seemed to forget. So on December twenty eighth,
20:25
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety one, Phil Lewis was involved in a fatal
20:29
Speaker 1: drunk driving accident in Bethesda, Maryland. He was still young,
20:33
Speaker 1: only twenty three years old at the time, and was
20:35
Speaker 1: just an aspiring actor. The crash would result in the
20:38
Speaker 1: death of a twenty one year old Isabelle Derate, a
20:42
Speaker 1: recent immigrant who moved to the US to work as
20:44
Speaker 1: a nanny, and her injuries were fatal and she was
20:47
Speaker 1: pronounced dead shortly after the crash, and the charges for
20:50
Speaker 1: these were manslaughter and driving under the influence duy, and
20:54
Speaker 1: his blood alcohol was about the legal limit, therefore leading
20:58
Speaker 1: to the charges of the hicular manslaughter, which he completely accepted,
21:02
Speaker 1: and in nineteen ninety three he was then sentenced to
21:04
Speaker 1: five years in prison, although he only served one behind bars,
21:08
Speaker 1: so instead he was forced to do three hundred plus
21:10
Speaker 1: hours of community service, and this wasn't the classic pickup
21:13
Speaker 1: trash on the side of the road, but instead working
21:15
Speaker 1: at a prison based theater to help educate them about
21:19
Speaker 1: the dangers of driving while intoxicated, which I think is great,
21:23
Speaker 1: you know, like I mean, something so awful that happened,
21:26
Speaker 1: and that was clearly his faults and his doing. He
21:29
Speaker 1: is trying to make into something or he did try
21:32
Speaker 1: to make into something that was you know, relatively positive,
21:35
Speaker 1: and this helped repair his damaged public image and allowed
21:38
Speaker 1: him to continue to do stuff he loved to do,
21:41
Speaker 1: which was acting, and he was eventually able to build
21:44
Speaker 1: his career back from the ground up again, eventually leading
21:46
Speaker 1: him into two popular shows and other appearances on Disney
21:50
Speaker 1: and Nickelodeon, and the crime he committed was over ten
21:52
Speaker 1: years ago in the past when he began acting on
21:55
Speaker 1: the Sweet Life of Zack and Cody. Although a tragic tale,
21:57
Speaker 1: I feel he eventually did himself. And although this act
22:01
Speaker 1: of violence probably haunts him to this day, I'm glad
22:05
Speaker 1: he could become a staple of many of our childhoods
22:08
Speaker 1: and do some good in the system as well. And
22:10
Speaker 1: he's still doing some directing here and there, helping direct
22:13
Speaker 1: a few episodes in twenty twenty four of a sitcom
22:16
Speaker 1: called Papa's House, and in twenty twenty three he was
22:19
Speaker 1: in a sitcom called The Really Loud House as mister Rickshaw.
22:22
Speaker 1: So it seems his career is at a bit of
22:24
Speaker 1: a sand still, but hopefully, hopefully he's happy. And next
22:28
Speaker 1: we have Ted Kennedy. So, as most of you will know,
22:32
Speaker 1: the tragic tales of the Kennedys is a long one.
22:36
Speaker 1: Many of them died or being assassinated, and tons of
22:40
Speaker 1: conspiracy theories around their deaths still exist and are frequently
22:44
Speaker 1: talked about till this day. However, one of the deaths
22:47
Speaker 1: involves the uncle of RFK junior Ted Kennedy, except he
22:52
Speaker 1: wouldn't be the one to lose his life. Edward Ted
22:56
Speaker 1: Kennedy was born February twenty second, nineteen thirty two, in Boston, Massachusetts.
23:01
Speaker 1: He is best known for not only being a Kennedy,
23:03
Speaker 1: but his career as a US Senator. And he was
23:06
Speaker 1: actually one of the longest serving senators in US history,
23:10
Speaker 1: which is insane, especially for Kennedy given their bad luck.
23:14
Speaker 1: But on the evening of July eighteenth, nineteen sixty nine,
23:18
Speaker 1: Ted Kennedy attended a private party on chap Equidick Island
23:22
Speaker 1: in Massachusetts. I don't know if I said that right.
23:24
Speaker 1: The party was a reunion for the boiler Room Girls,
23:28
Speaker 1: a group who worked on Robert F. Kennedy's presidential campaign
23:31
Speaker 1: before his assassination. So around eleven fifteen pm, Mary Joe Copenchni,
23:36
Speaker 1: a twenty eight year old former campaign worker and close
23:39
Speaker 1: associate of RFKS, would leave the party with him. Anyway,
23:42
Speaker 1: the two would leave the party together, and supposedly they
23:45
Speaker 1: were driving back on the ferry dock so she could
23:48
Speaker 1: get back to her hotel, and instead of the main road,
23:51
Speaker 1: he drove her down a narrow and dangerous unlit dirt path.
23:55
Speaker 1: He then suddenly lost control and went off the bridge
23:58
Speaker 1: into the pond below the car, flipping upside down into
24:01
Speaker 1: the water and submerging his passenger, and he was able
24:05
Speaker 1: to escape, but his passenger continued to be trapped, Mary Joe,
24:10
Speaker 1: and according to himself, he dove in seven or eight
24:14
Speaker 1: times hoping to save her, but couldn't get her from
24:17
Speaker 1: how the vehicle situated. He then decided to swim to
24:20
Speaker 1: shore and left just left the scene, leaving Mary Joek
24:25
Speaker 1: Penchney behind to die, and he just would return back
24:28
Speaker 1: to his hotel like like nothing ever happened. So like
24:32
Speaker 1: you may think, like maybe he's in shock, you know,
24:34
Speaker 1: maybe it's an hereditary situation. You know, the backseat girl
24:38
Speaker 1: dies gets decapitated. I don't know if you've seen that
24:40
Speaker 1: movie before, highly recommend watching it. But he just doesn't
24:43
Speaker 1: tell anybody and he's just in shock the whole time.
24:45
Speaker 1: So maybe he's in shock. Maybe just he doesn't he
24:47
Speaker 1: just he'll he'll let everybody know in the morning. But
24:50
Speaker 1: but no, he doesn't. He just went back to his
24:53
Speaker 1: hotel and just still didn't report the accident that happened,
24:56
Speaker 1: not until two fishermen supposedly spotted the upside car and
25:00
Speaker 1: called the police. So it wasn't him, I contacted the police.
25:04
Speaker 1: It was two fishermen. And this is what's locked up, okay.
25:07
Speaker 1: According to investigators studying the scene, an air pocket was discovered,
25:12
Speaker 1: which would have gave Compenchy enough time to survive if
25:16
Speaker 1: authorities were called immediately and not you know, you just
25:21
Speaker 1: go into your hotel and just not telling anyone. So
25:23
Speaker 1: he literally had a chance to save her in and
25:27
Speaker 1: on July twenty fifth, a week later, he pled guilty
25:30
Speaker 1: to leave the scene of the crime, and he was
25:33
Speaker 1: sentenced to two months in jail. And if you think
25:37
Speaker 1: that wasn't a lot of time, the sentence was actually
25:40
Speaker 1: just suspended altogether and he just served no time justice
25:45
Speaker 1: and knowing this would damage his career, instead of leaving
25:48
Speaker 1: the Senate, he continued to run and stated he would
25:51
Speaker 1: run for reelection the next year and in nineteen eighty
25:54
Speaker 1: he would run for president. However, his life had been
25:57
Speaker 1: stained with his career destroying story, which ultimate led to
26:00
Speaker 1: a dominating defeat, but still he did do well in
26:04
Speaker 1: the Senate and unfortunately passed away from brain cancer on
26:07
Speaker 1: August twenty fifth, two thousand and nine. But the entire
26:10
Speaker 1: topic is debated. If it was a deliberate murder or
26:12
Speaker 1: if he was hiding something it wasn't an affair. Did
26:16
Speaker 1: he have secrets to hide? We just don't know, and
26:19
Speaker 1: I don't think we ever will. So again, extremely unfortunate.
26:23
Speaker 1: Now last, but not least or maybe least. I don't
26:27
Speaker 1: really know. I don't last, And unfortunately we have someone
26:32
Speaker 1: who I'm assuming everyone knows, and one of the most
26:35
Speaker 1: recent ones, which is Alec Baldwin. And if you don't
26:38
Speaker 1: know who Alec Baldwin is, his real name is Alexander
26:42
Speaker 1: Ray Baldwin the third. That's a lot of name and
26:44
Speaker 1: he was born on April third, nineteen fifty eight and
26:47
Speaker 1: rose to fame in countless movies. He has that certain
26:50
Speaker 1: look and tone that stands out in movies, at least
26:54
Speaker 1: for me. I mean, he's got like that. Let stare
26:59
Speaker 1: what he always does. It was like very soft, very fast.
27:03
Speaker 1: This is a I'm turning it into Jeff Goldbloom right now.
27:06
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on. I'm gonna stop. But
27:07
Speaker 1: he became a bit more established in his role in
27:10
Speaker 1: the Hunt for Red October, made in nineteen ninety alongside
27:14
Speaker 1: Sean Carnory, and his fame grew through the movie Beetlejuice,
27:17
Speaker 1: playing one of the main characters, and his career just
27:20
Speaker 1: continued to skyrocket as he gained more and more roles
27:23
Speaker 1: in Hollywood. But of course, his most famous performance was
27:27
Speaker 1: in the live action two thousand and three Cat in
27:29
Speaker 1: the Hat, which is the reason we don't have any
27:32
Speaker 1: more live action Doctor Seuss movies. I personally liked it.
27:36
Speaker 1: I personally liked Kat the Hat. Okay, Mike Myers, he
27:38
Speaker 1: was good. I think it was good. But anyway, he
27:40
Speaker 1: has a plethora of movies. You definitely know who he is.
27:44
Speaker 1: But what you may or may not know if you
27:46
Speaker 1: don't deep dive into anything celebrity is that Alec Baldwin
27:50
Speaker 1: got a role in a movie called Rust, a Western
27:54
Speaker 1: movie to be specific, which would come out in twenty
27:56
Speaker 1: twenty four. I never saw. And in this movie, Alec
27:59
Speaker 1: Baldwin plays the main character Harland Rust in aging Outlaw,
28:04
Speaker 1: and the story was about this outlaw, Harland Rust, who
28:07
Speaker 1: came out of hiding to rescue a thirteen year old
28:09
Speaker 1: nephew after he was sentenced to hang for his crimes.
28:12
Speaker 1: He accidentally committed and it's a cool idea, and it
28:14
Speaker 1: began filming in twenty twenty and twenty twenty one. However,
28:18
Speaker 1: everything would come to a screeching halt after a horrible
28:22
Speaker 1: accident in October of twenty twenty one. There were many
28:25
Speaker 1: problems set. The budget of the film was around eight
28:29
Speaker 1: million dollars, which was not your regular budget for a movie.
28:32
Speaker 1: There were complaints of safety concerns from those in the production,
28:36
Speaker 1: poor firearm handling procedures and even accidental firearm discharges very
28:43
Speaker 1: bad and this would become reality as on October twenty first,
28:47
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, an accidental firearm discharge would take someone's life.
28:52
Speaker 1: And during a rehearsal during a church scene, Baldwin was
28:55
Speaker 1: meant to be armed and draw his forty five coal
28:58
Speaker 1: revolver and everything was going to plan, and this scene
29:01
Speaker 1: involved him pointing his firearm at the camera for a
29:04
Speaker 1: dramatic shot. When the gun went off accidentally and standing
29:09
Speaker 1: behind the camera were his co director Joel Susa and
29:13
Speaker 1: cinematographer Helena Hutchins, and the bullets supposedly hitting Hutchins in
29:18
Speaker 1: the chest where it passed through her, then hitting Susa
29:22
Speaker 1: in the shoulder, and this bullet was a live round,
29:25
Speaker 1: which is wild as to why it was ever on
29:29
Speaker 1: set and how the mix up even happened because you
29:32
Speaker 1: that is just never the case. You don't have live
29:35
Speaker 1: rounds on set and SUSA would survive. However, Hutchins would
29:39
Speaker 1: pass away in the hospital and an investigation was open
29:43
Speaker 1: on set trying to understand how the mix up could
29:46
Speaker 1: have happened and how so much neglect would be involved
29:49
Speaker 1: with having a live round on set. And according to
29:51
Speaker 1: the story, Baldwin stated he never pulled the trigger practicing
29:55
Speaker 1: gun safety. However, other reports stated he had no idea
29:59
Speaker 1: how to handle firearmor the first place, as he's been
30:02
Speaker 1: pretty vocal about his distaste for guns, and the armorer
30:05
Speaker 1: on set was also investigated Hannah Gutiera's reed and assistant
30:10
Speaker 1: David Hols, and they both stated that the weapon was
30:13
Speaker 1: prepped and given to Baldwin cold meaning safe, and then
30:17
Speaker 1: handed it to Baldwin. However, it was found it was
30:20
Speaker 1: not properly checked if it was truly safe, and this
30:23
Speaker 1: then just created a domino effect of lawsuits and allegations
30:26
Speaker 1: towards Baldwin, calling him a cold blooded killer while pointing
30:31
Speaker 1: the figure at the armorer and those on set for
30:33
Speaker 1: the mistake that cost someone their life, and in January
30:37
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty three, both Baldwin and Gutiera's read were
30:40
Speaker 1: charged with involuntary manslaughter. However, later the same year in April,
30:45
Speaker 1: his charges were dropped but could still be refiled, and
30:48
Speaker 1: prosecutors reopened the case and reinstated that manslaughter charge in
30:52
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, and on top of that, he received
30:54
Speaker 1: civil lawsuits from Hutchin's family for her wrongful death, and
30:58
Speaker 1: several crew members on set also joined in stating that
31:01
Speaker 1: they suffered emotional trauma under these working conditions and experiencing
31:05
Speaker 1: someone being killed in front of them, and some were
31:07
Speaker 1: settled privately, while others ultimately are still ongoing. In July
31:11
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty four, Alec Baldwin stood trial for the
31:15
Speaker 1: killing and the judge ultimately dismissed the case. He was
31:19
Speaker 1: not charged and therefore walked away a freeman. However, Hannah
31:23
Speaker 1: Gutierrez Reid was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter in March
31:28
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty four, and this obviously anchored a lot
31:31
Speaker 1: of people. However, it's hard to see how he was
31:35
Speaker 1: at fault for sure. Sure he could have examined the
31:38
Speaker 1: weapon himself, but if he was handed a live round
31:42
Speaker 1: which shouldn't have been there in the first place, and
31:45
Speaker 1: was declared safe, he felt there was no reason to
31:49
Speaker 1: check let alone, probably didn't know how to check, especially
31:52
Speaker 1: since he had a disdain towards guns. So it's very
31:56
Speaker 1: gray and confusing and just fucking sad. So it may
32:00
Speaker 1: they seem unfair, and a lot of people talking about
32:03
Speaker 1: his case are demanding justice, and I'm sure this is
32:07
Speaker 1: a massive hit on his name and the feelings of
32:10
Speaker 1: killing someone are definitely going to always be on his mind.
32:14
Speaker 1: I mean awful around, Like, I feel so horrible for
32:18
Speaker 1: all the people that were involved in that whole project,
32:20
Speaker 1: And it's just the negligence, like just so easily avoidable,
32:24
Speaker 1: and there could have been a woman still walking here
32:28
Speaker 1: on earth with us if those people were negligent. So
32:32
Speaker 1: just incredibly sad. But these cases to show, even riches
32:36
Speaker 1: and fame don't always grant you immunity from tragedy, and
32:40
Speaker 1: sometimes they do, which is really horrifying. But some were
32:45
Speaker 1: tragic accidents, while others were deeper and were struggling with
32:49
Speaker 1: personal demons. Either way, all of them were extremely sad
32:53
Speaker 1: and tragic. And that is it for this video, So
32:57
Speaker 1: let me know what other videos that you guys want
32:59
Speaker 1: to see down below. I appreciate you watching, I appreciate
33:03
Speaker 1: you being here, and I hope you stay safe and
33:06
Speaker 1: until next time I will see your beautiful face. Bye.
