Man Who Uncovered America’s ‘Most Inbred Family’ Says ‘They’ve Been Lying To Me The Whole Time’

Mark Laita has been documenting the lives of the Whittakers on his YouTube channel for four years now.

Earlier this year, Mark made an announcement that shook his audience: the death of 67-year-old Larry Whittaker, which was suspected to be due to a heart attack.

In response to this tragic news, Mark took the initiative to launch a fundraiser, and he personally donated $1,000 towards Larry’s funeral expenses.

However, as events unfolded, it became evident that Larry was not dead at all.

This shocking revelation came to light when fans spotted Larry alive and well in a video titled ‘The Death of Larry Whittaker’.

In this particular video, Larry is seen sitting outside their family home, casually discussing his own supposed death.

When someone inquires about the situation, Larry nonchalantly responds: “No, I just heard of it last night on a video.”

Believing that Larry had indeed passed away, Mark had previously handed over the cash to Larry’s daughter, who claimed they needed it to host the funeral.

Larry had assured Mark that this money would be used to take BJ to North Carolina to start a new life.

Unfortunately, Mark later discovered that Larry had kept the money and had not taken BJ anywhere.
