Netizens were shocked when TikTok user Lauren Jones shared about her father’s involvement in a murder-suicide. The video gained widespread attention, prompting her sister to also speak out against it.
A recent trend has emerged on TikTok where individuals are evaluating actions of someone close to them, be it a family member or friend. This can include parents, siblings, or other close family members or friends.
On June 4, 2024, Jones shared her personal interpretation of the trend by rating her parents’ actions, which quickly gained widespread attention and made her go viral.
“She rated her dad’s actions as 0/10 for killing her mom and 5/10 for killing himself afterwards. As for her mom’s actions, she rated it as 0/10 for passing away.”
The video she shared has garnered more than 65 million views, along with 8.3 million likes and 106,000 comments from stunned viewers within just two days of its upload.
“One user responded that they were not prepared for this.”
Another individual commented, “I wasn’t anticipating this on such a lovely Wednesday afternoon.”
“Ah, so you’re not a morning person,”another person replied with a hint of sarcasm.
With Lauren’s video gaining massive popularity, her sister Rebecca also joined in by posting a video on TikTok in response to the original clip.
“Welcome! For those who have come from Lauren’s video, please note that I will not be sharing a story time. I would like to clarify that her way of grieving does not represent the rest of the family’s grief. Therefore, I kindly ask that you respect our privacy and refrain from involving us in this viral situation. Thank you.”
Becca’s video is quickly approaching one million views and has received numerous likes and comments expressing various thoughts.
One commenter advised new users to approach the situation with kindness towards Becca and to avoid criticizing Lauren’s video, as it is a genuine and effective method of healing. They stressed the importance of not prying and placing blame on Lauren.
Becca’s response, “This!”, made it evident that she does not blame her sister for sharing the initial video. She was simply participating in a popular trend, and the story was compelling enough to capture the interest of millions of viewers.
According to news reports dated February 2, 2023, Becca and Lauren’s father, Lester Jones, took the life of their mother, Traci-Marie Jones, and then committed suicide only one week after Traci-Marie had filed for a restraining order against him.
Only a few days prior, TikToker Ali Abulaban was convicted of killing his wife and “lover.”During the trial, he admitted to “snapping”after learning that she had slept with one of his friends.
