Whenever I'm having a rough day, I just go watch Sheriff Grady to see who's screwed up their lives this time. It helps me realize it can always be way worse.

My mother passed away almost 7 years ago of a natural death.

Not a day goes by where I dont wish I could give her a hug or talk to her.

I don't understand how these weirdos kill their moms. I will never understand it.

[DisappointingCat]

I can’t imagine the daughter that’s 14 yrs old. I was 14 when I lost my mother in 2012 💔

[forgiven]

Well he won't able to smoke in his new room either .

My mom died April 2014 of cancer at 59 years old. I would give everything I own just to spend another 5 minutes with her. I couldn’t imagine killing any family member.

Condolences to that father and daughter I can’t even imagine losing my mom let alone having my family member take her from me

[macman]

I hang on this guy's every word. Man has an amazing talent for storytelling.

This makes me violently angry... this POS took out the woman that gave him life because he couldn't go SMOKE OUTSIDE...
My mom never liked me smoking in the house so what did I do? Go outside!!! Yeah maybe I got annoyed sometimes and tried to get around it and smoke in the garage. But I never EVER would have shot my own mother... just blows my mind....

[sunnylost]

Tired, angry and sad. This world we live in is exhausting 😪

[mache]

Wow. I could never imagine cursing at my Mom, let alone hurting her. SMH.

Sheriff Judd cares about people. You can clearly see he was choked up while talking about the incident

[zzzroxyzzz]

My best friend was in a car accident, they got her to the hospital where she was pronounced dead, it wasn't until then that they realized she'd been shot. It's scary enough to know you could be shot, but to think you could be shot and it could be missed is terrifying.

I miss my mom so much. She always had my back.

My mom died a painful death from cancer in 2018. There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do to spend just one more second with her. I don’t understand how these monsters can just kill their mothers.

I grew up with an abusive alcoholic mom. Experienced a lifetime of severe abuse until i left home at 15.
That being said, i love my mom. She did end up getting sober but has has 'other issues' that hurt me.
I am now 55, i still 'yes ma'am, no ma'am' and tell my mom everyday i love her.
This generation of kids have no clue how easy they have it. They are undisciplined and entitled. I am so heartbroken for this family. In a day and age where so many children dont have a family with a mom and dad..this guy had it all and killed his own mom. How does this happen? We are in the End Times, more and more evil everyday has made it commonplace.
I love this Sheriff, he is a good ole man, i sure wish there was more like him.

[malikj]

One of the few good sheriffs I think can be trusted to do the right thing and be lawful and cordial. We need more men and women like him in our legal system not less

[P.F..]

Heartbreaking.
Absolutely heartbreaking..
My Mom died 6 years ago and because I was homeless and out of state I couldn't attend her funeral in Texas. To this day it has made me feel horrible. But I try and make it through. I love and miss her.
My prayers for the family 💗

[RoronoraZoro]

I love watching this sheriff. Feels like Story time

[everlastinglife]

She gave him life, gave him a home, gave him love, probably even gave him the cigarettes he smoked and the clothes he was wearing. I hope he never gets out of prison. Some kids these days are so weak and pathetic. They can't even handle to smallest amount of stress.

[ФАКДЕМОКРАТ]

I once called my mom a “B****” as a rebellious teen and until this day I feel ashamed just when I think about it.
But hurting/ killing your parents is just evil AF! Why can’t we have a law when the killer gets to leave this world the same way his victims did?
