The murder of Dee Dee

So the other day I was watching this video on this case. It was truly interesting and I wanted to know what CC thought about this. I watch this Youtuber named Kendal Rae. She spreads a lot of awareness about missing children through her "Where Is" series, covers paranormal stuff, and covers murder cases. Her channel is extremely fascinating and I urge you to check her out.

Back on track. SO I'm just gonna kinda give an overview of this. If you want more detail check out her video or research the case.

Mother: Dee Dee

-Unemployed, caregiver to her daughter

-From an abusive home, no family support

-Abusive ex husband who's an absentee father

Daughter: Gypsy

-Has a TON of medical issues such as leukemia, sleep apnea, muscular dystrophy, brain damage, and more.

-Wheel chair bound and tube fed.

-Mentally younger than her age.

-"Home schooled"

They lived in a house that was built for them by Habitat for Humanity because they were Hurricane Katrina Survivors and Gypsy's medical records were lost in that as well. They collected and did a lot from charities like Make A Wish Foundation, Go Fund Me. Their friends and neighbors helped out A LOT.

All was fine until June 14th, 2015 when a post was made to their public Facebook page that said "That bitch is dead!" People assumed they had been hacked and started freaking out. It got worse when they commented and had this to say "I fucken slashed that fat pig and raped her sweet innocent daughter... Her screams were sooo fucken loud lol". After that the police were called and they found Dee Dee dead in the house. It was a terrible scene and she had been dead for a couple days. No Gypsy, though.

They traced the IP back to Nick. They found out that he was Gypsy's secret boyfriend who she met on a Christian dating website. When they found her, she didnt have any of her medical supplies she needed and she could walk perfectly. They ran tested and she was perfectly normal. Dee Dee lied about everything, even her age. Gypsy thought she was 19, but when her dad showed her birth certificate she was actually 23. They also found that her dad was involved. He paid child support and used to have visits. He wanted to be more involved, but Dee Dee wouldn't allow it. Dee Dee's legal name was actually Claudine Blanchard and she conned many charities and even her daughter. Her daughter only knew so much of this. She knew she could walk and that she was mentally capable, but didn't know anything else. She thought she was sick and took a shit ton of meds. She got away with a lot, even when Gypsy's tests were coming back negative. Dee Dee also abused Gypsy whenever she would slip up and say things she wasn't supposed to. She was made to think no one would believe her.

Later they found that Dee Dee was in trouble for writing bad checks and fraudulent behavior. She had five brothers and sisters. One sister claims Dee Dee had poisoned her food. They also claim that when Dee Dee was caring for their mother, she was starving her and caused her death. They were actually happy she died and wanted to throw her ashes in the toilet.

So back to the murder. At first Gypsy claimed no involvement while Nick was claiming she asked him to kill. Later she ended up admitting it and saying that she went into the bathroom, laid on the floor, and covered her ears. She heard her mom's screams and claims that while on Xanax she wasn't in her right mind and felt like she had no emotions

When Nicks family came in they found out that they mailed the murder weapon to Nick's house and Nick has autism.

Kendall asked a great question. Here you have an abuse victim, robbed of an education and an autistic boy. How can you hold either of them accountable? What do you think? What should happen to them? Its not the usual Bonnie and Clyde.

Gypsy was sentenced to 10 years and Nick's trial has yet to begin.
