Mother’s QAnon beliefs lead to family’s tragic death in Colorado wilderness
Published By admin with Comments 0
A mother’s tragic decision, fueled by QAnon conspiracy theories, led to the deaths of her 13-year-old son and sister in the remote Colorado wilderness. Rebecca Vance, believing lies about a “Great Reset” plot by elites to control the world, fled her home with her son Talon and sister Christine to live off the grid at a campsite outside Gunnison.
In the days before his family moved to live off the grid in the Colorado wilderness, 13-year-old Talon Vance told his online gaming friends goodbye.
“NOOO COME BACK,” the username Fluffy wrote. “Please I will give anything for you to come back,” another responded.
The 13-year-old who loved video games and computers transcribed the messages over 24 pages in a journal before his family left Colorado Springs for the remote Gold Creek campground outside Gunnison — a move prompted by his mother’s conspiratorial fears about global elites and the pandemic.
