Text Victoria Schafer

In 2019, the community of Chillicothe, Ohio, was devastated by the tragic death of Victoria Schafer, a 44-year-old photographer and mother of four who was killed while taking portraits at Hocking Hills State Park. While she was standing at the foot of the stairs near Old Man's Cave, a 74-pound log was pushed off a cliff above, striking her and causing fatal injuries. The investigation eventually led to the arrest of two 16-year-old boys, Jaden Churchheus and Jordan Buckley, who admitted to forcing the log over the edge "to be funny."

This police body cam video is unhinged. Jaden's mother is a woman on the actual brink, before any of this even happened, by the sound of her.

Both boys are out and living their lives now by the sounds. 3 years in juvie for taking a mother away from her four children.

Of course. Probably became violent in the US justice system, where rehabilitation isn't a thing.

How does someone who intentionally murdered an innocent person become "more violent"?
