Paul Schmidt Vancouver video is a prime example of utmost brutality and cold-heartedness.
Social media companies must do more to fight an increase in graphic crime videos being shared online for clicks, said a B.C. law professor after a highly graphic and disturbing stabbing video became viral online.
The deceased victim, Paul, 37, moved to Vancouver a few years ago. The innocent man did not know that the city he so enthusiastically was moving to will become the location of his gruesome murder.
Vancouver Starbucks stabbing video reddit shows Paul being mercilessly stabbed by a stranger around 5:40 PM on Sunday.
The victim’s mother disclosed that the events leading upto her son’s brutal murder included him asking the stranger to stop vaping near the stroller his child was sitting in.
The stranger took offense to that and ended up taking Paul’s life. His fiancee and daughter witnessed the whole tragedy.
Kathy Schmidt, Paul’s mother, said, “The most disturbing thing is that nobody tried to help, nobody called 911, and nobody called the police. They just sat and watched, and I can’t get my head around it.”
This incident has unleashed the heartlessness of the people. The tragedy occurred in front of so many people, but no one took a step forward to save Paul.
Instead, some ruthless individuals started filming the entire incident and then had the audacity to post it online.
Paul’s family has also seen the horrific video, and they are requesting people to stop sharing it on social media.
A GoFundMe fundraiser for Paul asks people to respect the family’s wishes and “not circulate the horrific video footage that has been shared on social media.”
In one video posted to Instagram but since removed, two men stand facing each other before one stagger and fall to his hands and knees.
“Man stabbed, bro, right here,” says a voice as the camera moves over the scene.
Both Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim and the Vancouver Police Department have asked people to stop sharing the video.
The poster’s main motive behind posting the video online was to get a few likes and clicks. How heartless do you have to be to use footage of someone’s dying moments in order to gain a few likes?
University of Victoria law professor Moira Aikenhead said cellphone technology had blurred the line between camera and communication device.
“The first reaction for many people when they see something good or bad is to whip out their phone,” she said.
Paul lost his life while trying to save his daughter from the harmful effects of vape smoke. His family is devastated and asking for prayers to overcome this difficult time.
