Daniel Robert Larson was born on November 15, 1998 in [[wikipedia:Lancaster,_California|Lancaster, California,]] to parents [[Elisabeth Shimer|Elisabeth Lee Shimer]] and [[Travis Larson|James Travis Larson]]. His parents were fairly young at the time of his birth; his mother being 22, and his father only 20.

At about age 11, Daniel was taken away from his mother by the State of Colorado due to neglect, which Daniel and a later news report reaffirm.<ref name=":0">[[Rooftop Interview]]</ref><ref name=":1">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsAGVvnzbms&t=1298s</ref> Given the state's actions, it is likely that Daniel was being truthful regarding his later claims of neglect. Daniel claims that he bounced between 10 to 15 foster homes in the years following the state's intervention. This is evidenced by leaked documents that the Developmental Disabilities Resource Center (DDRC) sent to potential fosters families/host homes. These documents warns families that Daniel, "...has a history of [[7/11 incident|property damage]], [[Dog Arc|kicking animals]], [[August 29th Meltdown|self-injurious]] behavior, and verbally threatening or [[December 10th Incident|hitting providers]] when he's upset," which corroborates claims of him being extremely violent, even in childhood.

Elisabeth, Daniel's mother, has alleged that Nancy, her adoptive mother and Daniel's grandmother, spread lies about her abusing her son.<ref name=":4" /> However, It is highly unlikely that Elisabeth was stable enough to take care of Daniel as she was wheelchair-bound, difficulty only added by Daniel’s destructive behavior. Due to her disability, Elisabeth went into assisted living in 2015 when Daniel was around 16-17 years old.

{{Quote|Daniel moved to Hugo, Colorado with his mom after she split with Travis. She couldn’t take care of him anymore because she was paralyzed. And Daniel was an asshole. I asked him about her getting paralyzed. He told me she was stuck on the kitchen floor for a couple months straight by herself and couldn’t get up. I knew that was a lie so I asked “so she shit and pissed herself on the floor for a couple months straight?” to with daniel responded “yes”.|Flexburger}}

Daniel was placed into several foster homes before his grandmother, [[Nancy Shimer]], was eventually granted legal guardianship of him following a long custody battle.<ref name=":1" />

Despite her kinder treatment of Daniel, Nancy was known to be enabling of his bad habits. When Daniel was three years old, Nancy was said to have rewarded him with M&M's after he had drawn on the walls of her home.{{Citation Needed}} Because of this enabling, Elisabeth and Travis tried to gain custody of their son, but ultimately failed. When Travis tried to file for custody of Daniel, Nancy opposed it, claiming that Daniel "didn't even know his father," raising serious doubts about their relationship. Due to the hostile accusations hurled during the custody disputes, Travis grew to despise Nancy, and claimed that the only reason she had obtained custody of Daniel was due to her more stable financial situation.<ref>[[Spiddlekick Interview]]</ref> Unlike Travis, Elisabeth was eventually given visitation rights to see Daniel once more.

After this, Daniel began attending the [[Tennyson Center|Tennyson Center for Children]], an assisted living facility for schooling, rehabilitating, and assisting children with intellectual disabilities or who faced neglect, abuse, and other mistreatment. At this school, he met his mentor, [[Bob Proctor]], via a reading buddy program wherein they played board games and read together.<ref>[[Spiddlekick Interview]]</ref> Even after the program concluded, Daniel and Bob still remained close.

Daniel even made it on the news, being [[KWGN Tennyson Center News Report|featured on local Denver news station KWGN]]. While not entirely focused on Daniel, the clip documented his time at the [[Tennyson Center]], in which he lived for over a year prior to Nancy gaining custody of him.

Throughout his childhood, Daniel was almost exclusively referred as 'Danny.' He was even called this in his high school yearbook and in the news report he was featured in. According to his classmates, Daniel was a very violent person, even in class. One of his classmates refers to a time in which Daniel threw a chair at a window which resulted in a light fixture being knocked down.<ref>[[Canned Legs Leaks]]</ref>
