Adventures with Purpose founder Jared Leisek accused of child rape

Jared Leisek, a founding member of the search and recovery dive team Adventures with Purpose based in Bend, Oregon, is accused of raping a child in Utah.

The founder of the Adventures with Purpose channel got accused of molesting a 9-10 year old relative twice. How disappointing.

Dude. I've always liked Adventures with Purpose but I could not stand this fucking guy. His emotional output is weird, detached, and lacking. I never thought he was disengenuous, per se, but I couldn't get comfortable when he was on screen. I much preferred it when the camera was focused on the other guys, so much so that I subscribed to their channels as well.

He seemed like the kind of dude who would've been doing those SOCIAL EXPERIMENT IN THE HOOD [GONE WRONG] [GONE SEXUAL] videos back in the day—I don't care if that doesn't make sense, that's the vibe he gives me.

Probably not the place to ask, but since I'm guessing you autists like true crime: how do you feel about shows like Dahmer?

While I used to be morbidly curious about Dahmer's story, I find these shows disgusting. That's why I prefer youtube videos talking about truecrime without much drama. Big Netflix productions that are all faggy and feel like soap operas are just glamorizing these monsters to normies.

And, honestly, I don't think you can do much with the victims either. Their fates are always morbidly real and awful. Trying to follow the TV formula for characters that will get murdered for no rhyme or reason just feels wrong.

I've been a crazy true crime person for a long time, but I always preferred either documentaries or docuseries like Forensic Files (god love ff), things you can easily look up and see if what they were saying is accurate. like don't fuck with cats, you can easily look shit up and see that most of them did absolutely nothing in regards to the capture, but they like to think so...

for shows like Dahmer, it uses the "real story" hook to lure people in, and then it can do whatever it wants. They clearly have no interest in respecting the victims, because its all being used to get people into watching it

while documentaries are capable of doing it too, its less "for the theatrics" and more 'we messed up in this docu". its not just using humanity's morbid curiosity, I feel like shows like Dahmer want to put a spin on the murderer and make it seem surreal, when really, its just terrible people committing terrible acts

heard they were also gonna do a Gacy one too? the only good thing is maaaybe it'll help get people's attention to finding the last unknown victims' names

I've been following Internet Investigator's Patreon stuff - still down after over three weeks, now just asking people to sub on Youtube. Also how is she able to host the "uncut" version of the video on the site that the "cut" version is hosted - that seems to go around their guidelines?

Now this.....this is bad. She takes a questionable guy with a channel where he interviews homeless people, most of whom are on drugs/selling themselves for money, and then speculates that he's a serial killer because a few of them have died since the interviews. This thing is almost 30 minutes long.

Also, this is a Youtube channel like hers. What could she have needed to edit to produce a "censored" version when all of the videos she's featuring are on Youtube?

I got a little MATI when I saw this one because he's essentially just a weird old guy who vlogged compulsively as a hobby and found a niche that could make him a little money. I used to watch his driving videos to fall asleep and found him a few years ago following a conspiracy theory that there's a military installation on Zug Island. He used to have a video of himself getting approached by Homeland Security while filming it from somewhere in the ass end of Delray by the river. He's a little bit of a douche but to call him creepy for hookers overdosing and getting murdered is one hell of a stretch.

If you're homeless in Detroit and you're staying in Detroit and not heading for the west coast, you're in the Leaving Las Vegas portion of your story arc. There's not a lot of infrastructure, the police are incredibly underfunded and not going to follow up on you if you go missing unless you're the third or fourth whore they've seen dumped in a short period of time (they did just sentence the nigger who was sticking them in abandoned houses a couple years ago), and winter is not really survivable. Add to that that if you just go say you live in a house the city will more likely than not just sell it to you for pennies and ask you to get some utilities on, like if you're truly homeless in Detroit you don't have long to live because of your life choices. If you're a woman? Add prostitution risk, add organ damage from drugs, add fent in everything on the street, you're fucked. Detroit isn't as bad as it used to be but you can certainly make it that way for yourself by living like the whores he started interviewing.

The moralfagging (he's done a transphobia and a racism? On camera?) and completely ignoring the men he also interviews was just dumb as hell. I wish he'd just go back to making long driving videos, but he found his grift and I wish him well for it. As much as I would love to believe that I've been coincidentally following the LISK on YouTube or some shit, this whole video was a bad take.

These losers keep saying that demonetization will "bury their videos in the algorithm and lose their viewers". Has there been actual proof of this happening to someone?

People have purposely not monetized one of their videos and noted that the video got noticeably less views, there were a couple different channels that did YouTube experiments like that.

The general consensus is that the algorithm does prioritize pushing monetized content over content that isn't monetized.

With that said, the videos don't get completely hidden or something. Many of the people complaining about not constantly growing seem to not realize that all niches and all channels within every niche have a ceiling of sorts, you're never going to be in constant growth mode.

And given how the vast majority of videos uploaded to YouTube never even reach 1,000 views in their entire time on the platform, the people complaining about not getting enough views are generally already in the top 10% or even top 5% of the creators across the platform. People are never satisfied.

I strongly prefer documentaries (youtube videos sortof fall under that heading) or books. I don't even have a huge problem with a show 'taking advantage' of the victims because all of them do, to a certain extent, and documentary makers need to eat too - but I like to know what really happened, and dramatisations of crime stories tend to twist things/make things up more than documentaries do. Plus, making the killer some kind of anti-hero is just gross to me. Dahmer was a twit, not a hunky UwU boyfriend for tumblerites.

That said, I thought the show Des (2020) was very well done. But that was not a Netflix show and only had three episodes, it didn't milk the story for longer than it had to.

I think Dahmer is a really boring show, it feels like they dragged it out for 10 episodes for no real reason, they dont get ad time or anything so why did they?

I'm with autism and really enjoy TTS horror stories, if that's your cup of tea, check out midnight broadcast. New videos every day at midnight.

 

[Owls Owls Owls]

I don't like it. Dramatizations of this sort will always gloss over the most heinous shit these guys did, because those little details will repel the public they're going for: non-true crime autists. It also doesn't help that Dahmer's been covered by everyone and their mother. There is nothing new to learn about him and his motives or actions.

At least with Gacy or Corll there's still stuff that hasn't come out and I would love to see documentaries on. Like someone said before, Gacy still has unidentified victims. So does Corll. Also in Gacy's case, accomplices. That is interesting. Watching 8+ episodes of a fat man in a clown suit angst over being gay while killing teenagers is not.

I can't say I dislike all dramatizations of true crime since I did enjoy Mindhunter, though that's a different perspective. For comparison, I would not ever watch a series about fucking BTK, but enjoyed him very much in Mindhunter, as a background thing.

The problem with Dahmer is that it's made by Ryan Murphy and he has a massive hard-on for Evan Peters. So when you have Peters playing the role (which under any other film maker would be perfectly fine) and Murphy is there behind the scenes, you can pretty much guarantee the latter is furiously beating himself off to the portrayal. Doesn't matter that it's about an IRL serial killer and should be more "serious", it's still starring the guy he's been putting in his fetish series for years. That's my issue with it, Murphy doesn't realise a guy like Dahmer does not need to be treated the same way as his campy gay characters in AHS.

I have to agree. Seems like they just make a spectacle out of it. I much prefer talking heads in documentaries.

Something like Deadly Women is a bit on the border for me even if I enjoy it. It's probably because the dramatizations can get a bit TV movie levels of camp and it takes away from the horrors which these women committed.

It's also not helped that the narration is low-key ridiculous with how odd it can be. Sometimes it almost feels as if they make a bunch of sociopathic bitches into badass femme fatales.

I most prefer it when they have specials which are interviews with some of the women featured.

There's a bunch of the episodes uploaded on YouTube so I recommend checking it out.

This.

It really annoys me when a show/movie like this comes out and they make huge assumptions about what a person said/their motivations, but show it like it's fact.

And I could have done without the gratuitous reenactments of the murders.

Also I have to admit that if I knew nothing about gay people except what I got from watching that show I would think they're the most disgusting and degenerate people on the planet.

Wanted to watch some horror/mystery so put on Reignbot on. And… was it always so off or the quality went to shit recently? “Today we will hear the story about a young girl who was abducted and was going through unimaginable suffering every day….. but first let me proudly present our sponsor RAYCON” Is this some joke? I’m no Karen, but way she shills in those videos seemed very distasteful

ReignBot has been garbage for a while and according to this thread (I unsubbed ages ago) is just getting worse

I left because of Reignbot's bitchy attitude plus her going non-binary further cemented my decision

Dunno about any of you, but every modern interpretation of Dahmer I've seen, including the new one, seem to portray him as a mega-autismo tard lacking any charm whatsoever.

Coupled with the fact he was average looking at best and literally a homosexual, I don't know how gross true crime women online are simping for him so hard. Did they somehow miss the part where he really only went after gay black dudes??

Don't ask me why some women do this, but they'll take a flattering picture like below, conclude that he's 'hot', and construct whole fantasies around him that have nothing to do with reality anymore. There are still forums where women are perving over Klebold and Harris, two fairly ugly teenagers with shit personalities to boot. Where there is a will to prettify/animufy some killer, there is a way,

Something something fujoshis.

That aside, people don't actually care about the logistics of simping for serial killers and school shooters. I've witnessed a people making cat boy fanart of Jim Jones and it was as haram as it sounds. There's ton of simping for the Columbine cowards and that brat who wore a "killer" shirt to court.

I'd rather have that than people outright justifying and defending their actions to be honest but both are equally disturbing.

Curiously I've noticed no one is simping for John Wayne Gacy.
