I've never been able to understand this! And it happens more than people realize. The only explanation that I can understand is that denial is a very powerful thing. They (the mother in this case) just can't cope and doesn't know how to escape the psycho, so they just deny the allegations made by her own daughter. So tragic. I like to think today things are different. She could probably go to a school counselor and they'd immediately take action.

Everyone in our lives failed us by never contacting the authorities, and the authorities failed us every time they released my father on good behavior after his 12 DUI's and giving him custody of his daughters every summer.

Dede's brother is a man who stands tall among other men. God bless you, Sir!

Hearing about how she still misses her mother is so sad. After everything, she still has moments she wished she could’ve had with her. I hope she knows that it’s not her fault, she wasn’t an adult. Her mum should have left the second she spoke up about the abuse.

Her mother knowingly put her in harms way and then refused to right her wrongs in any way till it was quite literally too late. That's fucking disgusting. But I feel bad for any pain the loss of her mother may have caused her. And my heart goes out to DeDe's brother. Every deserves a brother like him!

Rule #1 in a abusive relationship: YOU NEVER TELL ABUSER YOUR LEAVING!!!! ABUSERS WILL DO AND SAY ANYTHING(gaslighting) TO KEEP YOU FROM LEAVING. Rule #2) NEVER TELL ABUSERS WHERE YOU ARE AFTER LEAVING. Many women have to use womens abuse shelter resources to leave their abuser because they have laws,rules,and resources to make sure abuser cannot get to victims. They even have abuse victim safe houses/apartments for women with children. They have counseling services for the victims to keep victims from going back to abuser. Years of gaslighting causes victims to believe the gaslighting lies. It usually takes victims 3xs of leaving to stay away from abuser for good. It took me 4xs. I grabbed my 2 kids(abuser is the father) and we left with only the clothes on our backs,diaper bag,kids blankies,and shoes on our feet. It’s been 13 years and my kids haven’t seen their father in 13 years.

The mother was more than likely abused to the point where she was made to believe she couldn't survive without this man. DV cases are very complicated because it is hard to break the cycle. Once someone believes they can't live without their abuser or that they are nothing without their abuser, its very unlikely they will leave, even when their children are at risk. Her mother wasn't in a healthy state of mind so thats why she didn't receive or acknowledge the news of her daughter's abuse. I do feel bad for the mother because I've been in a DV situation and it is very very hard to break the cycle without the proper support. I'm sure in the beginning of the relationship there were red flags but she ignored them. It's unfortunate that she, and her daughter, had to pay for her over looking those red flags.

Parents, if your child tells you something completely bizarre, of a sexual nature, physical abuse, etc, perpetrated by another adult, family, friend, or stranger, BELIEVE them.

Unfortunately Rebecca never did that)

I'm fully aware abused women feel trapped and are mentally manipulated but I still can't sympathize with Rebecca since she knew her daughter was being abused and molested and took the psycho's side. It's her job to protect her daughter at all costs. Also they had a chance to quietly get away and Rebecca, for some reason that defies all logic, TOLD HIM they were going to leave. That moronic decision is what ultimately sealed her own fate and got her daughter assaulted / tortured yet again and almost murdered. There's no excuse.

I'm born, raised and still live in Jersey and have never heard this story! Murder is wrong but not for nothing, the mom put both herself and Jennifer in that situation.

Beautiful brother. Rip Dede Brave young lady Jennifer ❤

Cherry Hill ,NJ is a middle to upper class area of the same county i live in. Basically its supposed to be safe place to live, the schools are the best, the houses are huge. But bad things do happen there, like they do everywhere

I hate to point this out but the link to Liz Coopers video of Jennifer’s first hand accounts is also Unseen in the description box. 🤭🤷🏻‍♀️ I very much enjoyed your telling of this story and was going to look it up to find out more on the case. I even searched for it in search bar but could not find it this way either. So, updating your description box or pinning link to your comment section would be greatly appreciated 😊 😎👍🏻👍🏻

Never feel bad about constructive criticism, given well. That's exactly what your comment is.

This story is haunting.

So glad I found this channel, so many channel do the same cases, on here I'm finding alot of new ones I've never seen ...ty

I hope people in these comments understand it's not so simple to escape an abuser. and in fact, the abuse gets worse and victims are most likely to die when they attempt to leave/just after leaving. her mom denying the abuse to her at 7 could have been her being unable to admit she'd brought a predator into her home and failed her child, or it could have been her attempt at stopping this child from angering him and making it worse. and we don't know if the day he killed her, if she told him they were leaving or if he simply found out. no one said. but the fog you're put under when you're being manipulated and abused, as well as the threat of death if you anger the abuser by leaving is a hard thing to escape. yes, she could have done more to save herself and her child, but she's still a victim.

So many times the police do nothing to protect you even when you report it and leave … and by the time he follows you and you call to report it again , the harm is already done before police arrive

@@leighleigh8725 yep. people forget that about 1 in 6 cops is a domestic abuser. men in general care very little for women's lives and cops are no different. there's a reason people say restraining orders are just documentation for who the cops need to look for once they find your body. IF they find your body. because that's all that little piece of paper can do for you, and the only time the cops are actually willing to get off their ass and do their job. recently an elderly bedridden women who's husband was her caretaker got into a fight. he told her she had to leave and threatened to kill her if she didn't. he called the cops himself, gave her the phone, and she told them to come get her bc she didn't feel safe. cops came out, he admitted to what he'd said on body cam, they asked him if he had any guns, said he did, cop said he liked people who are armed (ON BODY CAM) and told her a place would be made ready for her by the END OF THE WEEK at a care facility. she begged one of the officers to stay with her or take her to a hotel or something, they refused and left. he shot her dead. neighbors called cops, and he blamed them for "not getting her out of his house" like he wanted. cops claimed they "didn't think he was serious". that's how little her life was worth to them. yes, she was old and disabled, but that doesn't mean she wasn't worth protecting. that she deserved to die alone and scared. to have the last of her life stolen from her because a man was mad at her. they had ample chance to save that woman, and preferred to be lazy and bet her life on someone they already admitted to liking, wasn't really being serious, even when he himself said otherwise. it's terrible this mother and daughter suffered so terribly, but there was no promise they'd be safe if they asked for help or did leave as planned. cops could not have been trusted to keep them safe. and until you're in that situation you cannot truly say what you would do. it's easy to talk shit when your life isn't the one actually in danger.

No person should lose their mom like that. However, you should at least try to shield your child from suffering. I know you are fearful, but at least try...

Thank you for the stories of warrior spirits and survival. ❤

As far as I know, a serial killer is someone who murders three people or more. Although it's possible that Eddie may have killed others, it was only proven that he killed two.

so the video had no problem saying he would kill her, but had a problem saying that he would then kill *himself* ? So, murder is ok to talk about, but not suicide? Is this where we need to go as a society? So many videos also don't allow us to hear or read the words *rape* or *abuse* , either. If we cannot talk about it, how can we solve the problems?

Unseen we appreciate you❤

My heart breaks for this girl. I have never been in an abusive relationship. Nothing like this so I cannot speak from experience. But you gotta be a down right silly goose to put your own feelings in front of your child’s. And that really scares me that a parents can look at their child that is claiming someone is abusing them. And say they are making it up. How r they gonna make it up? A child shouldn’t even KNOW what that is. So why are they claiming it? I am so sorry for this woman and anyone who had a mother or father like this. It’s sickening. And it’s not your fault. At all. As a parents their first priority should be the safety of their children.

i love your vids!! watch them as soon as they come out

Why didn’t he get the death penalty for Rebecca’s murder?

I was thinking what Dede’s brother said. She was from Canada where it is safer so she would be more trusting. How awful.😢

was just rewatching last weekend's episode! here we go!!

it's my birthday today 💪🏼 appreciate your channel Unseen ❤️✅

Dede and Rebecca…rest in eternal peace now. Amen. 💖✨💕✨💖✨💕✨

Hmmmmmmmmmm 😔thanks sir amazing effort GOD bless you n guide you always all the best 👍🏻👌🏻👍🏻👌🏻❤️❤️❤️

Bless the little girl, now woman Jennifer

Yeah I do not feel sorry for the mother. The underage daughter, a victim herself, had the strength to recognise what was wrong and that they needed to leave and she not only didn't do anything, she told him.

💙I found the first part of this video confusing, but it is an inspirational story of a young survivor. I am sorry she had to endure all that for so many years and witness the murder of her mother and her own subsequent torture. Sorry also that Dede's remains were never found but it does not seem realistic that they could be found under tons of sludge. Dede's brother is a true hero, I am glad he found some peace eventually.💙

No fr mama had self esteem issues. If u tell an abusive partner you are leaving you want them to romantically stop you, like in movies. Mama was delulu

I had an ex like that but opposite .. pathetic pussy 🥴🥴🥴🥴 he wanted me to romantically accept the abuse like in a movie and he wanted me to scream and fight to keep us together no matter what because it would “make us stronger” 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 I ignored all his calls after he told me that .. and he called the police ON ME for a wellness check 🎉

Wow another female that inspires in an unreal way! Thank you 🙏🏻

You have done an amazing string of such well-crafted videos, always pondered in tone. Thank you.

i have no sympathy for rebecca. and i hope jennifer never feels like it’s her fault.

It might get bits and pieces from other TV shows but this is one of the best KZread channels

Watching tonight after work !

How am I from Cherry Hill my whole life and I don’t think I know this case or I don’t think I do. Jennifer is only a few years younger than I am, idk how I could have missed something so tragic happening in my own backyard, however back when your young, people tend to be very self consumed and pay little attention to the news, which is more than likely the reason. I don’t know why I included all of that, except that I must be feeling some kind of guilt for not being aware of this. These days watching, listening, learning and suffering for all the victims of these horrific crimes is literally all that I do. Jennifer I’m still right here in the area if you are, my heart goes out to you and all I ever wanna do is hug someone who’s been through this unspeakable pain, I could certainly use one, it’s a lot carrying the pain of all of humanity’s suffering…

I'd never understand these women keep going back to their abusers. WHY???????

They're losers

People need to stop pretending that their abusive spouse would never hurt the kids. Yes. Yes they will. They cannot control their anger with an adult, they will eventually hurt the kids. Get. Out. Stay. Out.

The only person who I understand might have sympathy for mother is Jennifer, no one else should. Abused or not she allowed her daughter to be abused herself and she paid the ultimate price for it. Good luck to Jennifer and I hope she lives the most fulfilling life possible.

Seriously New Jersey? You can’t convict a person even if they willingly confess to a crime? That’s some BS law they got.

Naw man. This law helps prevent false confessions and convicting innocent people. It should be law in every state.

Eddie was a perfect example of what a psychopath is. Such people need to be addressed, if possible, before they can escalate to such levels. If not possible, they may still be able to be rehabilitated however, most cannot be. If they cannot be, there is no reason to put the burden of their continued existence upon the shoulders of society.

Wow...47 years of giving up myself to protect my daughter...and she still treats me like crap at times....Jennifer! Something is very wrong that you are idolizing and overlooking what she did. Seek more counseling or different counselor. You may be trying to be "nice" to feel loved. That could repeat over and over on a daily basis. You do not have to be nice and give uo yourself to receive love....Giving of yourself to protect your own child is to love your kids.

Need to corroborate the confession? The man is a killer and describes exactly what he did to Dede. What else they need?

As frustrating as it is, it's to prevent people from being forced to confess to a crime they didn't commit. I'd say it also prevents weirdos from trying to "take credit" for other people's crimes.

Early squad lets gooo! Love these videos! They have hopeful endings and I prefer those over "but no one was found" or "the culprit was never brought to justice"

Never bring WOLVES around your lambs. Mom is at fault here. Single Moms .... you had your chance. It is now your DUTY to focus on your children and remain single. At least until your children are no longer minors, are launched and independent. Then you can do any stupid thing you want to with your love life. DO YOUR DUTY FIRST.

Rebecca ... so many bad decisions. I usually feel bad for the victims, but she won't have it. 7 years of abuse being ignored, telling him they will leave him, refusing to leave when her daughter asked her while the crazy man is out of their home, she ignored her daughter, she ignored the red flags, she even GAVE HIM AN ALIBI FOR DEDE'S DISAPPEARANCE, if she didn't protect him there was a chance for him to be catch back then and Dede's body never been lost. I'm sorry Rebecca, but such moms should not exist, a woman who pick a man who abuse her children over their own children doesn't deserve children at all. Poor Dede and poor Jennifer.

Who knew a receipt could be an evidence for a trial

I can and never will understand a woman staying with a man thats abusing their children. Especially if ur own child is telling u these horrible things how can u not believe them? I'd rather my children safe than hurt. At the very least investigate into it to see if it's true. I do understand some kids lid for attention but as a parent u have to do any and everything to protect them. It's a shame 😔

But when the Janitor was interviewed by police over the neighbor missing he said "he liked her" in the past tense. I think at this time she was only missing, would have been a red flag for me.

Yo... this case definitely caught me off guard. Im from New Jersey but more on the Manhattan side... ive always heard of Cherry Hilll. Never been but its always had a good rep. Supposedly a nice suburb .... ive never heard of this case.... a serial killer in Jersey?? .. wild. Fortunately the daughter appears to be a strong woman after that experience as a young girl

Anither great video, but I'm still on my crusade to get y'all to make a video about Alison Botha!

“You know I always liked her,she’s cute n all”What a disgusting thing to say about a 14 year old girl as a full grown man.People make me physically ill

Parents like this mom are the reason why some killers have a body count, and why some kids are afraid to talk to their parents.

Time and time again, mothers choose lovers over the welfare of their children. Then, when they eventually find the courage to tell her that they've been sexually abused by him the mother invariably gaslights them. So much for motherly love. Jennifer was an incredibly brave and smart girl to outwit this monster. She also has a beautiful soul for forgiving her mother who repeatedly failed to protect her. I just wonder how many other victims of this swamp creature are out there. So glad they finally caught this POS.
