Florida Man Timothy Ferriter Was Forced to Make ‘Tough Choices’ to Control Son’s Behavior: Defense

1. What are the consequences given in criminal court for the crimes the son was committing?

2. this family were out of their depth with this boy, he would of been better in a specialist children's home where staff are trained to deal with trauma in young people, but I guess his pride got in way.

3. Those parents are disgusting 🤮 only listened to the opening statements so far, but no matter the child said or did excuses locking him up in a box and torturing him. I couldn’t believe my ears listening to that lawyer.

4. Tough choice…should I or should I not put my child to a box.

5. They did not try to get him help by the way they only took him to two appointments for 30 minutes

6. Terrible attorney

7. She is such a horrible lawyer

8. Ah those "Christians"

9. Tim had criminal intent as soon as he hired the contractor to build the box.
   He knew full well exactly what that room was going to be used for…that was criminal intent right there…

10. What a lame and convenient defence! His attitude so amplified in how he spoke to the child says all!!! Every abuser says what they do is for the victim's good!!!

11. Though he didn't react correctly, his intentions weren't criminal? Build a box to imprison a child who desperately needed his help. Oh yeah, just for the yuk yuk yuk of it, let's install an air conditioner and punish the kid for turning it on in Florida heat and humidity. Wow. Lock them up.

12. Bad attorney

13. He turned down the plea deal…. Can't wait till he is sentenced and sitting in a box for a long time….

14. Bad parenting who did what this Monterrey did, are criminals

15. Parents too easy on these kids these days

16. Why didn’t one of the other kids have the box in the garage and the boy have a room in the house??????????? These parents just threw this kid away! MONSTERS!!

17. Why did she say they were gonna call him Tye for this case- and then she proceeds to call him Ronan and Tye. Kind of confusing

18. Sure way to communicate with your kid is to keep him out of the home , in the dark and belittled everyday.

19. What is this lawyer up to trying to say that these pool parents had to suffer she is as sick as they are we all had to deal with our own children going through issues but we did not do what these done you only have to look atem to know theyare sick bulleys and that lawyer is really making me mad trying to put the blame on the child i just want to fly to america and meet him and give him the biggest hug he is a very brave boy sending my love to him from ireland xx❤

20. When the family MOVED AFTER the NATURAL BORN BABY was born, WHY didnt the parents BUY A HOUSE with the appropriate amount of rooms for the WHOLE FAMILY?? IMO, because Ronan/Ty wasnt their NATURAL CHILD, he was NOT ACCEPTED as 'PART OF THE FAMILY', he was more or less, a PET. 😡
    I really HOPE that the 'MOTHER' TRACY is charged and convicted in this case as well!!
    I am only into the video as far as ' OPENING STATEMENTS' DEFENSE SIDE. Already I am appauld. This guy does NOT deserve the honor of holding the title of 'Dad, Daddy, Papa, pa,' he is entitled to the name 'FATHER' because he bought that title when he bought the baby. Tracy, is in that same catagory. She owns the right to the title of 'Mother' but nothing else. TRUE Mommies & Daddies DO NOT treat their children like animals. 😡

21. 1:32 Uh, excuse me…criminal parenting makes someone a criminal. You can't substitute "bad" for "criminal"; they are not interchangeable. Criminally bad parenting is a thing.

22. There is no help for parents with troubled teen children in this country this is the truth. I witnessed this with my own family. CPS don’t care about troubled teens as they care about little children because no one wants to foster them as opposites to younger kids. Parents are left alone with all the mess… sad but true

23. This boy was trouble, they should have give him back….

24. I don’t know man…

25. This defense attorney alone is enough to get him convicted 😂

    He actually silently clasps his hands together and prays immediately after the judge first admonishes her.

    He knows it’s over.

26. Tough decisions they may be. But they were still the wrong decisions

27. Anyone else think he could play Darrin on Bewitched?
    (Irrelevant side note)
    But…Is 'psycho look' the only face he has? Cuz I would definitely trade that in.

28. We live in a HUMANE place. If he doesn't agree to that, he needs to be locked away from civilized society.
    Forced to make 'tough decisions?'
    I think we should make a 'tough decision' and lock him in the box he thought was such a good dad idea. 💡
    Let me help him out, since he's so confused, or psychotic. We live in a CIVILIZED society. He thinks we're in a barbaric one. Here, 1st world, you call for help if you can't deal with problems that involve another person, especially someone dependent on you. We don't lock them in boxes with no windows, no control of light, no bathroom, no water, no food, no control of the temperature.

    My neighbor drives me crazy. They won't let me lock her in a box either.
    Sorry dude. This kid's behavior SHOULDN'T EVEN BE DISCUSSED In this trial. Do they think they're going to excuse this? There's absolutely nothing, to justify this.

29. Unless you’ve adopted children with severe behavioral issues, you will never be able to understand painful choices that parents have to make. I’m not trying to justify everything they did, but unless you’ve been there, you have no idea.

30. The defence lawyer is embarrassing.
