for 17 years a mother had tricked her daughter into thinking she had cancer
welcome to inform overload I'm your host jöhnny Rogers and if you're new to the
channel we tell you about the most interesting news stories we find on the
Internet and we make them more entertaining now at the age of 27 gipsy
Blanchard is standing as a witness for the trial of her former boyfriend
Nicholas go John for the murder of her abusive mother gipsy says she wanted to
be free from the hold that she had on her and felt that the only way was to
kill her mother for 17 years the mother had convinced her daughter that she was
terminally ill with cancer the mother went to extreme lengths to do this from
forcing her daughter to use a wheelchair to undergoing a lot of medical tests
that just weren't needed friends of the family say that the mother Claudine
Blanchard had kept her daughter locked in the home like a prisoner the home was
also provided to the family by Habitat for Humanity thus furthering the need
for this line to continue gipsy had very little schooling and friends honestly
believed that she was ill and developmentally delayed too much of
their dismay she was in perfect health gipsy had been told by her mother that
she had muscular dystrophy cancer and many other illnesses that required her
to stay in the home she also reports that her mother would physically abuse
her star Ferrand when she tried to run away
her mother chained her to a bed for two weeks it wasn't until she turned 19 and
she began to question just how sick she really was and after meeting Nicolas on
a Christian dating site the two plotted killing the mother for more than a year
now with Nicholas on trial things are gonna get even more complicated gipsy is
taking responsibility for the death of her mother even though Nicholas was the
one who stabbed the mother back in June of 2015
gipsy is testifying that she lured Nicholas to Missouri and talked him into
murdering her mother currently gipsy is serving a 10-year
prison sentence for second-degree murder and Nicholas is being tried for
first-degree murder the defense are not denying the Nicholas did in fact murder
Claudine but with Gypsys testimonial they're hoping to have him convicted for
something other than first-degree which is essentially a life sentence this is
going to be a tough decision for the jury especially if you consider what I
mentioned before about the plotting that took place the prosecution is attempting
to say that because the two planned this over the course of several text messages
for well over a year that means it was
premeditated thus giving Nikolas plenty of time to consider his actions on the
matter however his attorneys are arguing that Nikolas has autism and could not
possibly have the mental capacity to commit premeditated murder Nikolas
states that he stabbed the mother because gypsy said that she felt it was
the only way that he could be with her the two met in March 2015 when Nikolas
made the trip from Wisconsin in a series of text messages that were presented in
the trial the pair would discuss their darker impulses Nikolas even said that
he had an evil side and that he enjoys killing they also began discussing the
need for duct tape and knives just days before Claudia was found dead in her
home her body wasn't discovered until her
Facebook page stated that she was dead and then a taped interview from the
prosecution go John said that gypsy asked him to do it while gypsy was being
questioned by the prosecution she acknowledged that Nicholas however
dominated the relationship and referred to him as the master and she was the
slave like I said I would not want to be the jury for this trial there's a lot of
mixed messaging involved here that's why I want to leave this question to you
imagine if you were a juror on this trial should Nikolas be convicted of
first-degree murder or do you believe that gypsy coerced him into doing it let
