28 Shocking Confessions That Left People Completely Speechless

21.

“I’ve had two people confess murder to me. One was an old boyfriend who told me about some of the gang-related killings he was a part of in his teenage years. He told me while we were camping in some remote mountains. I recently found out he’s now in prison for life because of a double homicide he had committed just prior to that confession — apparently acting as a hired hitman. He asked me to marry him on that trip, and I said no. Glad I made it home. The second was my best friend and a really stand-up dude. Well educated, very successful, highly respected, really trustworthy. He drunkenly confessed outside of a bar while waiting for an Uber about something that had happened in his teens related to his younger brother’s gang affiliation. He said it was something he thought he had to do to keep his baby brother safe.”

“I never brought it up again until months later he vaguely alluded to ‘the worst thing he’s ever done,’ and then I saw a flash of panic in his eyes as he remembered that he’d told me. We had a wordless exchange, and he went home. I never heard from him again.”
