This is disgusting. Let this child rest in peace, leave the parents alone, and let them grieve. These parents need to heal and put one foot in front of other. This is not ok nor will it ever be OK.
She needs to be run off YouTube and the internet.
I hope this woman gets sued and gets kicked offline.. she is disgusting and sick
😮
Take hr to court PLEASE
Don't worry, they'll be on torrent sites for free pretty soon.
Zav Girl, the scientist.
YouTube better delete that channel then ban her from the site for life. She’s straight up trash.
This is really sad l hope the father sues
Lol so much prohibition for FREE COUNTRY.
I will make my own judgment. Where can I see these photos?
I'd pay $5 to see them pics!
I wanna see the pics too
This channel really need to be taken down 😢
Keep reporting her, and get her off social media/YouTube
I used to follow ZG but stopped two years ago. My impression after following her on and off since 2018 – the whiny presentation and fake little me humility rubbed me the wtong way. In my mind I got a sense of someone who was manipulative and often disingenuous regarding various true crime events. Posting pictures or putting them behind a paywall of a brutally murdered child – goes beyond *study,* for science or investigative reasons into the realm of dark web kind of horror. She is not running a university lab on forensics. Any pervert can view those very horrific photos now. That little boy and his family deserve some privacy and should not be used by AMATEURS to get cash and clout on social media. I am surprised the person doing this is doubling down and saying critics are sick not her. In my opinion, the young woman who posted these photos is not sick just one more YT grifter doing what grifters do — then making excuses putting the action into an acceptable light. I am just waiting for her to come out portraying herself as the victim of bullying. My guess she likely did the world a favor and laws will be passed to prevent things like autopsy photos — especially of children – from being posted on the internet. Good going Girl – in that case God works in mysterious ways!!! By the way best way to deal with her – and her chanel is to avoud it. Do not give one more click over there. Let time make her irrelevant and her chanel as well for her irresponsible act. Giving her any attention after this feeds her needs. Don't do it.
To YouTube & the YouTuber: “ You truly are not sorry about your actions, you making this fake sob apologetic video you know that your get views and money…. You capitalize on other dramatic events that others have suffered through their life. You truly have not talent, and what you did here is despicable. The fact that the case was closed and you wanted to publicize photos that bring back horrible memories to not only the family, but close friends and the community that cared about this child for profits… man… you have really shown how low a human being mindset can go. Also, once again, making profits out of your mistakes confirms everything that I’ve stating here. Shame on you and your parents. I hope from now on till your demise you feel eyes of revulsion when you are in public. You realize that you have tainted your character pretty bad. You’re a horrible soul and have no respect for others. Shame on you, if I was your father I would disown you.
Shame on you….
To YOUTUBE: you need to permanently ban this young lady from your platform. She is showing the greedy side of YouTube for keeping this young girl.”
Thank you guys for Bringing awareness to these horrific channels!
They need to leave G-man ALONE!!!!! he went through hell on earth ad doesn't deserve to jeep going through it.
Omg I hope these YouTubers are going to be charged or something harsher. This is a tragedy and what that little boy already endured is awful enough. But for those who are profiting from this!!!! You are absolutely the most disgusting ppl and even if you were a fav YouTuber I hop you lose your channel I hope
You lose money and I hope you take the money you did earn from the s fowl act and donate it in his honour. Another adult screwing this poor defenceless child. Shame
Shame on both of those youtubers..
Her “defense statement “ sounds like your typical sociopath..Interesting and Informative? Yeah, right.
Gannon🧢💙🧢💙🧢💙🧢💙
How could she EVER think of making money out of a poor murdered child's autopsy????!!!! What a scary person she is!!
These you tubers get a big ego and start seeing dollar signs and do ridiculous disgusting stuff like this. How can you do this to him and his family?
Charge is for being a patron member of channel which allows members more videos, its not charge for looking at photos. Your spreading misinformation 😂
disgusting.. a little boy ..Charged $3 To See 11-Year Olds Autopsy Photos..sad .. Give me money and I'll get the pictures autopsy .. Zavgirl J-
-k–y–..Was just on Zav Girl's channel (never heard of her before today and went there to leave my opinion on her vile behavior) and she just posted an "apology" video. It's SICK!! If she was a mother she'd feel the same way and would be horrified at the thought of someone online charging other people to see her child's autopsy photo's. People are selfish and don't stop to think about how their actions can hurt other's.
Zav girl the demon
We must stand up and say NO! Where is the line? If a child has been sexually assaulted and killed are those photos going to be sold online? It is simply sick! People’s interest has zero to do with having a moral compass! Whose side is she on, the victims and family, the perp, or herself $$? Pretty clear…
If she is permitted to retain her channel, every de-platformed youtuber should insist upon immediate reinstatement.
No child's nude body autopsy photos should be released. Shame on the clerks office and the youtubers
So many youtubers use graphic crime scene photos and autopsy photos as bait to subscribe to patreon. Minors included. I understand why it isnt okay ..what i dont get is why everyone is targeting one youtuber and not all of them? Im having a hard time keeping up with this only case cancel culture.
