What’s the worst thing someone connected to you did? (1 Viewer)

One of the guys in my fraternity joined the NOPD after undergrad. He was one of the officers convicted in the Danziger Bridge shootings after Katrina... I always had a weird feeling about him in college...

One of my cousins that I grew up with was driving drunk and ran his vehicle into a marsh. Unfortunately, a younger cousin was in the passenger seat and did not survive.

I have an uncle who told me that he “thinks” he killed a man. He said he shot him but didn’t hang around to determine if he was dead and didn’t keep up with the news. This was about 30 years ago and I’m not sure if I believe any of it.

Many of my wife’s cousins are die-hard Falcons’ fans. I didn’t know that die-hard Falcons’ fans existed until I met those clowns.

Sorry to hear about your wife’s cousins

Did you/do you have to interact with him?

i did as a kid, he was my favourite uncle. i haven't talked to him in years, maybe 15 or so. final straw was when he rear-ended (twss) my bff's dad.

So I glanced at the ‘another chiefs player arrested’ thread
And I realized there are probably plenty of animal lovers on that team who might be in a position to have to be teammates with an animal abuser

That made me wonder what’s the worst thing someone connected to me (think family, teammate, colleague, et al) did
One of my colleagues has an affair with a student- I didn’t know the student and never worked with the colleague after it was discovered- but that’s the worst I can recall atm

Anyone have a situation where you have to work with or go to family picnics with someone who did something really bad?

I'm curious about your choice of words. Was the the student a minor?

Probably- like I said I didn’t know her, but I think she was a senior
Getting ready to type this it still seems hard to believe, but the story is that her mom is who discovered it - apparently she caught them in a tent in City Park after she had intercepted some texts

The joke among the students was they were going to get Tshirts saying ‘high school name: our teacher student relationship is in tents’

Wow. Can't lie though, that pun is top notch.

I don't know anyone who did anything all that bad, but all of my friends and family know someone who's done a lot of really bad stuff.

For the most part they were pretty sharp kids

2 of my great great great grandfathers killed several white people from england.
my great-grandfathers also killed several white people from europe.
my grandfather on my dad's side killed white people from Europe.
My father and his brothers killed brown people from another country.
I used to work with a group of people that killed a lot of brown people from another country.

I could write a book on all the things my biological father has done. He's easily one of the worst people I know.

- wife beater (& beat on every 'girlfriend' he had after my mom except his 2nd wife bc he was on parole and afraid of going back to prison - at least for awhile bc that faded & he went to prison a few times after that)
- cheated on our mom with our 17 year old babysitter. Probably cheated on every woman after that as well.
- verbally & emotionally abused my oldest brother from the time he was a baby. Also was wasted one night when he was a baby and "showing off" to his friends and put beer in my brother's bottle when my mom was in the other room.
- manufactured meth (who knows how many lives he ruined as a result of his drug manufacturing & distribution). Also got himself kicked out of the Army for manufacturing meth on government property.
- Murder - but somehow managed to beat the charge and get his "best friend" to eat the charge.
- mooched off so many women who didn't have much to begin with
- completely failed as a father, son, brother and husband
- beat countless people up (admittedly other junkies but none the less he was a violent piece of human garbage)
- drove drunk with us kids in the car
- threw a metal folding chair at my aunt's wedding causing a major scene and being kicked out of the wedding - all because he was hammered & I wouldn't dance with him. He was waiting for us back at my grandparents after the wedding & trying to take my brothers and me home with him. My grandpa refused so he was trying to fight my grandpa (his dad) when he refused to allow us to go with 'dad' so my uncle stepped in and fought him instead.
- Got drunk and got mad at my oldest brother over a video game when my brother was like 21 and hit my brother. By this time my brother was stronger and bigger and ended up beating him up.
- Criticized my oldest brother and all his 'failures' while my brother was on his death bed dying (resulting in me cussing him out in the middle of a deserted wing of the hospital and pointing out how he directly was responsible for the way my brother turned out)
- Called his sister a number of slurs last July after my grandmother's funeral.
- Called me an effin B when I tried to bring some levity to the conversation after he and my aunt had gotten into it. I again cussed him out and told him about himself and reminded him how close he is to his own dirt nap and how none of his siblings, nieces or his only living child (me) want nothing to do with him and he will die alone & deserved every ounce of suffering.

....I'm sure he's done far more. This is just what I know about and what is top of mind that I can recall right now. Easily one of the worst humans I am "connected to".

I thank God every day that my mom left him when I was 2 and we were raised by a very good man who I called dad.

First cousin, once removed (my dad's first cousin) was arrested and convicted for killing his third wife, after his first two disappeared/died under mysterious circumstances. He had wife number 3, who I'd met when I was very young, killed while he was picking up the kids from school. The cousin and his kids passed the hired murders on the road on their way back to the house. So, not only did he have his wife killed, he had his kids help discover her. He also burned his boat/garage down for insurance money. He tried to disappear girlfriend #4, but it didn't work. Eventually he was killed in state prison.

We did things with the cousin and his parents semi frequently when I was little.

I'm pretty sure I've watched murder shows that covered your cousin's story. But I have realized that there are a LOT of people who have their spouses killed for insurance money.

where do i begin?

If friends or family of mine were to post...

I have friends who've done time for dealing, assault, robbery. It's what I don't know about some that may concern me
