Of note about the Loretta Pickard case: The firefighter lead who was there was posting about the fire to snap-chat instead of rescuing the woman. While the dispatcher sounds bad in the audio, she did tell the lead repeatedly that there was someone trapped in the building. They did nothing with that info.

The case of Loretta is terrible. She sounds so calm trying to tell them she cant move, and then you just hear screaming and screaming. Truly awful. Theres no way they didnt give that dude jail time. He deserves it.

$200k for a wife & grandmother being burned alive due to negligence? I got $500k because a woman ran me over with her truck. From beginning to end, there are no words to describe the absolutely sick, disgusting way Loretta and her family was treated. That poor woman.

[Serasugee]

That giggling-like noise Loretta made on the phone... That's the sound that can only be made during an intense panic attack. It hurts to hear knowing how she must have felt during that call.

[gray]

“Stop blaming your neighbor when you’re the one making all the noise.” That’s the most Reddit thought process I’ve ever seen

[facetiouslyinsolent]

They let that lady burn to death and the county gave the family 200K. A woman was arrested and illegally searched for waiting for Starbucks to open and she was awarded 8.25 million last year. 200K is a slap in the face for letting someone die.

[AtomicPunk]

Just listened to the full audio of Loretta Pickard dying; don't do it. She lasted 41 seconds from screaming "I'm inside!" to dropping the phone. She wasn't coughing, just screaming and moaning. I don't think the smoke killed her. I think she might have actually burned alive. I'm going to go cry now...

My grandparents (and for a short time, myself) actually attended the same church as Loretta and I would see her often growing up. My grandmother organized a lot of events for the women of the church and me and my sister would attend and help out when needed. Loretta, my grandmother, and a couple other ladies would always talk afterwards. When I was younger I couldn't wait for them to be done so I could go home, but now I'm glad that they got to have those moments together.

She was a very kind woman who had always had trouble walking (at least while I knew her) and she absolutely did not deserve what happened to her. I want to thank you for fast forwarding through some parts of the 911 call and overall treating the story with much more respect than I've seen from others.

[JonSudano]

I still remember the Paria Pipeline incident along with the injustice and outrage. I still feel so horrible for those divers and I cannot fathom Christopher's survivor's guilt.

a native russian speaker here, as far as i understood from analyzing Vera's channel this channel is owned not by the lady but by her relative (as he writes in male gender and also speaks on the phone about being "disabled" and not being paid by the government). The man owning the channel can be seen on the video "asking for money", where his relative is asking for his money and he is irritated that she doesn't work at all and brings drug addicts into their apartment. there is simply too much content to go through in that short amount of time but maybe the situation is that his daughter/relative owns that apartment or a share of that apartment and often brings her friends/husband/kid there while they do drugs (some of the videos/descriptions say "doing drugs" or "smoking crack" while the people in the videos are clearly not acting normal) and i guess what the author meant in the descriptions is that the only way to get them out of the house is to kill them. But honestly from the way he writes and composes sentences that man is not mentally well. He is severely insane and the last uploaded three videos is of him talking to someone from the authorities and ranting about how he is not getting paid and putting the blame on Putin while his relatives are taking drugs. A haunting case by the way, it's extremely sad to see a child live in such conditions.
edit: amazing video, nexpo. I missed seeing your videos on my recommended, this was probably the best video out yet, i was on the edge of my seat the whole time, anxious about the stories, you are definitely the best in your field

[nunny]

There’s something so eerie and unsettling about John and Jane Does. It baffles me how individuals can live their lives and be totally unknown to anyone. The few photographs there are of them also have an uncanny valley feeling.

[ToastyGhost]

The second one made me cry so hard. She sounds so sweet and was so polite despite being terrified and helpless. She should have been saved immediately, i'm so mad.

[JP-lxjv]

For Loretta, all the firefighters who knew she was stuck in the house and did absolutely nothing to try to get her out should have faced disciplinary action or even prison time.

[Mumbo_Wumbo]

As a dispatcher, Loretta’s story is arguably all of our worst nightmare. We try to reassure our callers the best we can, knowing full and well that we are powerless on the other side of the phone. All we can do is get responders out as fast as we can and try to give them hope that they’ll be okay. I teared up listening to her yelling because I could not imagine what that dispatcher felt, let alone what Loretta was experiencing. It’s such a tragic story.

[Shortmansam]

-Send rescue diver down the pipe from where Christopher left
- run a guideline with glow sticks attached
- rescue diver brings food, water, air tanks, glow sticks, and flashlights.
- assesses the state of other divers
- informs and assists divers to leave, explaining the relative distance and procedure.

How was this not their plan of action? I’m sure Christopher would have volunteered to be that diver.

[Slowpokeinabathtub]

Nobody is talking about the missing people cases… it’s so strange to me how we have so much social media and yet nobody can identify these people

[Sarstan]

Leave it to Reddit to think banging on a wall for a crying baby is reasonable and that calling CPS for a crying baby is also a reasonable reaction. Those people are insane.

[okjpeg]

i can't get loretta's screams out of my head. she was so scared and alone in her last moments. williams should've been arrested and charged with manslaughter.

[FizzyMyDizzy]

That guy should be forced to listen to that woman's screams every day for the rest of his life.

[aliibrahim]

Poor old Loretta :’(

Imagine looking at a Fire coming closer and closer for over 15 minutes and clinging on to that hope of rescue… and then you start burning. Oh my god poor lady.
