1-Page Summary
Two cases are shaking local communities as young individuals are accused of committing murders, with law enforcement and the public grappling with the alarming details and the potential implications these incidents may have on societal perceptions of youth violence.
Seventeen-year-old Colin is currently in jail for the alleged killing of his mother in Auburndale, Florida. He made a 911 call claiming that she fell on a knife after a long fight. Upon arrival, officers found her dead from a neck wound, with Colin appearing unbothered and immediately requesting an attorney. There were no signs of struggle in the home. Previously, on Valentine's Day in 2023, Colin shot his father in Oklahoma, claiming it was in self-defense. Although he invoked his Fifth Amendment rights and was not charged due to insufficient proof, the incident raised concerns. His troubled relationship with his mother, Catherine, included threatening to kill her, which was ignored by the police who brought him back home. A neighbor witnessed him pulling Catherine by the hair inside their house, and two hours later, she was found dead. The medical examiner found that her wounds were too intentional to align with Colin's account, resulting in his charge for first-degree murder. The state attorney's office is planning to try Colin as an adult, with the sheriff labeling him a "psychopath" and believing him to be a further threat to his grandmother. Catherine was portrayed as a loving mother who cared deeply for Colin. Colin had previously been Baker-acted for claiming his mother threatened their lives, but Catherine suggested he was retaliating against being punished. She spoke of a traumatic past for Colin in Oklahoma, where he was allegedly held captive by his father for revealing his sexuality, leading to severe isolation and malnourishment. Despite being diagnosed with PTSD and a personality disorder, and after a stint in a mental health facility, Colin was sent home, culminating in another attack on his mother and his eventual arrest.
Alleged murders and homicides committed by young people
A shocking case unfolded as Thomas Kwan, a British doctor, admitted to a sinister plot involving an attempted murder disguised as medical care.
Thomas Kwan pled guilty to the attempted murder of his mother's partner, Patrick O'Hara, with a carefully orchestrated plan driven by his desire to secure his future inheritance.
Kwan's elaborate scheme to murder Patrick involved meticulously planning a deceitful attack to secure his inheritance. He went as far as sending Patrick fake letters purporting that he was due for a COVID booster shot, for which Kwan disguised himself extensively. Using dark makeup, a wig, fake facial hair, and dark-tinted glasses, Kwan transformed his appearance. He even used a car with fake license plates to avoid detection.
Posing as a nurse, Kwan visited his mother's house, performed a few routine tests, and administered what was supposed to be a COVID-19 shot. In reality, the injection contained flesh-eating bacteria. After the injection, Patrick suffered intense pain, leading to his hospitalization the next day, where it was revealed he had been infected with the bacteria. He subsequently required extensive medical care, including surgery to remove infected flesh from his arm.

Alleged medical-related murder attempts
In a shocking revelation of manipulation and murder, Nathaniel Huey Jr. is alleged to have committed a heinous act against an entire family, including his mistress, under the influence of an elaborate hoax crafted by his fiancée Erma Linda.
Erma Linda created a complex ruse by impersonating a criminal organization through fake social media accounts. After discovering Nathaniel's affair with a woman named Zoraida, Erma Linda chose not to terminate their relationship. Instead, she used these accounts to send Nathaniel directives to withhold affection from other women and stay loyal to her. These manipulations were presented as orders from the fictitious criminal group.
Erma Linda's deception included sending threatening messages to Zoraida and her family, exposing the affair and levying threats. Nathaniel Huey Jr., over time, believed these communications were genuine directives from a criminal organization. Erma Linda's instructions were detailed, telling Nathaniel how to stage the crime scene to resemble a burglary purportedly committed by kids. She even reassured him that many murders remain unsolved.
On September 16th, 2023, the sinister plan was executed when Nathaniel, with Erma Linda as the getaway driver, arrived at the v ...
Alleged murder cases involving love triangles and domestic disputes
Controversies are swirling around the music industry as accusations of heinous sexual misconduct and criminal activity implicate notable figures like Diddy, with industry peers' silence on the issue raising eyebrows.
Diddy stands accused of egregious criminal offenses, including racketeering and the solicitation and transportation for prostitution. Over three thousand individuals have come forward accusing him of assault, and from these, attorneys have identified 120 viable cases for civil litigation. The lack of public comment from peers within the music industry on these charges has sparked speculation about their potential complicity or involvement.
Jaguar Wright, a musician and industry insider, has been vocal about her grievances and the seedy underside of music industry dealings. She claims Diddy is linked to the deaths of iconic figures Tupac and Aaliyah, among others, and suggests that he has received protection from powerful industry names like Clive Davis and Lucian Grange for the past thirty years. Wright has gone as far as to describe Diddy as having been "selected to be the demon" within the industry, asserting that there's a long list of his victims and that many are aware of his alleged role.
Adding more fuel to the fire, Wright accuses Beyoncé and Jay-Z of also being deeply involved in nefarious activities. She asserts that they are aware of and may actively participate in some of the alleged criminal activities, including instances of placing unconscious people on planes, a situation she ...
Allegations of corruption and criminal activity in the music industry
The possibility of a new trial or resentencing for the Menendez brothers, who were convicted of murdering their parents in 1989, is under current consideration due to the emergence of new evidence.
The murder case of the Menendez brothers has regained public attention, partly due to the Netflix series "Monsters." Erik and Lyle Menendez have claimed that they were driven to murder their parents because of extreme trauma from alleged sexual abuse. While these sexual assault allegations were originally presented during their first trial, leading to a hung jury, they were not permitted as evidence in the subsequent trial, where the brothers received conviction.
There have been public calls for the brothers to be charged with manslaughter instead of murder, considering the circumstances. Furthermore, based on their reported rehabilitation and conduct while incarcerated, attorneys for the Menendez brothers have filed petitions seeking the review of new evidence and t ...
