In a video taken on his Go-Pro camera after the killing, the actor filmed his mother's body while saying: "I shot her in the back of the head. In the moments after, she would have known it was me."
no dumbshit, she wouldn't have known anything. she was dead almost instantly. but this quote makes you wonder if there was some severe abuse here. shoots her from behind in the back of the head, wants her to know it was him but too scared to confront her directly even with a fucking gun in his hand.
The more I learn about child actors, the more sympathy I have for Maculay Culkin.
If you haven't seen his appearances on The Modern Rogue you absolutely have to go watch them
Some of the worst shit happens to child actors, often either at the hands of their parents or enabled by them
Yeah no child abuse definitely doesn't inspire "proper respect for others" it's really fucked up to imply that.
These mass shooter types always shoot their mother before heading out for their rampage. Really makes ya think.
it's a similar situation with serial killers in general yeah?
Further evidence of just how fucked up it is to be a child actor.
Obviously not making excuses for the guy but there is a lot more to this story I feel like.
I had no idea who he was - other than the headlines I saw - so I went to Wikipedia to have a look at his page. He doesn't have a page. I wonder what sort of idiotic backstage editor drama is going on there.
Edit
I wonder if I was too quick on the drama to assume there was drama. In any case - he has a page now: Ryan Grantham.
Spoiler alert - there's nothing interesting on it yet.
He's credited for 37 roles but they are almost all side roles.

Hasn't this kid been in prison for that? I swear I saw this headline sometime last year.
Yeah the thing said it happened in 2020 and that he turned himself in within a day if not hours
I think it is a recent article that’s just … I dunno going for clicks (although i had not known any of this previously)
dammit why do these people kill their family members first and not the politicians? you could have made the Canadian :the-doohickey: and been a legend
