I had the misfortune to listen to the entire interview with the murderer.. It's one of the most painful experiences of my life.. Just hearing him speak and not being able to punch him repeatedly in the mouth to stop him saying "like" a million times was traumatic for me!... I'm amazed the detective was able to carry on with the interview.
Likewise I agree like with everything like you said like, like I wanted to punch him in the face like not because like what he said but like he had a punchable like face.
Chad had well over 53 beers that day, and he was in an extreme fit of rage. Prior to causing Yordley's head to explode, he had just been drinking and screaming. Something bad was inevitably going to happen.
@@yellowjacket5995 How does someone drink 53 beers in one day? That's over 2 cases. for one person! I drink 12 one time and slept in a puddle of puke. I can't even imagine.
If you read "The Great Gatsby," the whole point of that novel is that the rich are careless, they leave devastation in their wake and never seem to suffer the consequences. "They were careless people, Tom and Daisy-they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.” ― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby
That was a fictional book. I was raised in very poor circumstances. I married into a family of wealth. I have learned that character is what matters. My in-laws are the kindest, most accepting, and most giving people I have ever known. The families that I have met since I have been married that are wealthy are stable, kind, and very giving people. As for growing up around those that did not have much material wealth, they were usually not well off because of their own choices. Not all of them, of course, but many were not good with money and others were not willing to sacrifice to get ahead in life. Of course there were many that were kind. The issue I have now that I am out of that situation is that those that did not have material wealth seemed to stereotype and complain about people that are rich, even though they did not associate with those that were rich. They just assumed that those that were rich were stuck up and self-centered. Another issue I have is that those that are poor can be entitled also. I know of many that I grew up with that are entitled. They are annoyed when those that have more than them do not share their wealth. They expect others to pay for them or they act jealous and envious. They are not grateful for what they have. They are envious of what they don’t have. The fact is that even being wealthy is relative. Someone homeless is looking at a home owner as rich. Those that have a big house and multiple cars will think those with an estate, the best cars, a movie theater, acres of land, and a maid rich. I do not like how the MSM likes to make “rich” people look greedy and evil. It’s false. There are greedy people that are poor. There are greedy people that are rich. There are giving people that are poor. There are giving people that are rich. It all has to do with priorities, humility, and character.
@@user-xg3uy6hq9g How do you mean? I also had a period of knowing the ultra-rich via an old gf and most of them were very warm and balanced people.

I'm a parent and realize that you can't control your grown kids, and anyway, they have to live their own lives. But my God, what the hell was wrong with his father? The kid is so blotto in the middle of the day he can barely speak. That's a huge red flag in itself. But daddy takes him out to eat and they have more drinks? It absolutely boggles my mind.
Probably was trying to get him to eat and did not approve of him continuing to drink. That would explain why he didn't continue to party with his son and just left angry. That the restaurant continued serving a visibly intoxicated patron is weird. The interventions of either would not have prevented the crime, sadly.
Dr. G, you should always always always mention, when it comes up, that an abusive male partner choking a woman is a big red flag that he's a lot more likely to eventually kill her.
@@juneelle370 do you play Word Police often? I'm not willing to just play along with you on this one. "choke" means many things, but so does "strangle," metaphorically, "Spanish moss strangled the trees." you knew that I meant "strangle," and so did every native English speaker, because it's one of the meanings of the word, and even when one partner "chokes" another during sex play, and I have never done that, and I certainly wouldn't let a woman do it to me, it's "strangulation." SHAME ON YOU! I said something important, and you turned it into your moment to virtue signal and to play word police and to try to show that you're smarter than I, and you changed the subject, an important one, surely, to just another discussion of mere words.
@@juneelle370 and what if someone says, oh, he didn't "strangle" her, he only "choked" her? you're the one insisting that there's a difference. and "choking" during sex play often intentionally involves shutting off oxygen to the brain, "air play," long enough to cause brain damage, because, supposably, orgasms are stronger. you probably know that doing it killed Michael Hutchence, of INXS, and TV Kung Fu and movie Kill Bill actor David Carradine.
My mother's first husband put his hands around her throat and threatened to kill her. She managed to talk him down, then divorced him, which was a gutsy move in the 1950s. She had a supportive family and four protective big brothers, which helped, because he once went to her home after she left him and tried to see her, which was shut down fast. It's fortunate for me that she did so, because she later met and married my father, who loved and was loyal to her until her death at 87 years old. The more I learn about domestic abuse, the more I recognize how lucky she was.
I feel like the fact that George came from an obscenely rich family also played a role in his never having to face any form of consequence in his life.
Yeardley was a tiny person and he's 6'2 >200 lbs. He got into a DUI situation in another town in 2008, put the female officer on the ground & she had to use her taser on him while he called her bad names & threatened to kill her. Almost choked on my tea @ " What's not to like?"
I knew a few "George's" in college. Surprised this hasn't happened more. Often these people get blackout drunk, belligerent and even regretful when sober. But continue to drink and repeat this behavior. In this case it led to tragic consequences. So unnecessary and sad.
I think it is time and then some for some in depth research into what the child/ parent/s family dynamics are in cases of this type. Meaning not only cases with such extreme features as murder but binge drinking on affluent campuses, non-marital/ early ‘romance’ violence, and the culture that seems to exist to let these kids slide further into trouble rather then have supportive interventions by either faculty or friends. There’s plenty of data available from studies of violence and substance abuse among poor and disadvantaged homes, but the contributory factors when those demographics are absent should also be treated as important topics for investigation. I’ll refrain from speculating what the data might suggest if it were ever to be compiled and sent to the lab. From not-mardon account user in Canada
@@allinaday9882 Looks up JCS criminal psychology channel. They posted an amazing breakdown of George's initial interrogation at the police station. It has 5 million views or something like that.
not only did he put himself into the cop car once they arrived, he immediately started talking about breaking into her apartment, almost as if he's so used to getting away with shit, that he didn't think he'd even be charged. he also said that she hit her own head against the wall (as if that's a thing people do..) and then when he was informed she died, he denied he was to blame. he pleaded not guitly, even though he already admitted to breaking and entering, and assaulting her.
His interrogation is one of the HARDEST to get through. Seriously so difficult just because of his “jock/bro” way of speaking. Lots of “I just wanted to tahwlk to her”

I hated this case. The entitled rich kid got away with basically a slap on the wrist. His mother is so detached from reality to think that her son couldn't commit such a murder. She's extremely narcissist and I'm sure she was never a real parent, just an ATM machine for her horrible son. She wanted alimony, not surprised since she probably never worked a day in her life.
I couldn’t agree more. Dr Grandes analysis was insightful and well-constructed, but I feel like there’s a simpler way to describe what happened: this entitled drunk jerk kicked his girlfriends door down and beat her to death *in her own bedroom.* Anyone in this comment section does that, they’d lock us in a room and throw away the room, as just they should. George should never see the light of day again because, and I can’t stress this enough, he kicked his girlfriends door down and beat her to death.

Slap on the wrist? He serves more time in prison for 2nd degree murder in a US prison than he would for first degree murder in most countries with a way better justice system than the US.
@@ole86 Ok, let's see. He broke into her house and punched her until her skull was dust and her brain was vapor. He was sentenced to 23 minutes of probation. He should have been sentenced to receive downward ogre punches (the same attack he used against Yordley) to his torso until it exploded.

🎯💯 the LDS Elders must be reeling, they just squashed live cameras being present in the Daybell / Vallow case and now this! How will they sweep this under the rug if the word gets out 🤔
What bothers me the most, is she lay mortally injured, and alive for hours and hours alone, before finally dying. If only he had phoned or told someone what happened...she may have lived.
Doesn't brother me. These girls love Chad so much. As she lay dying I wonder if she ever thought about the misery that she caused when she labeled some nice guy as a creep for having the nerve to speak to her.
I’ve known a lot of guys kinda like this, obv not this bad, when I was in a fraternity. Some people hit college and just go absolutely insane. I only saw a guy put hands on a girl one time and boy was he dealt with. The crazy part though was we had a taxi bring her home and the address she gave turned out to be that same dudes house! 🤦🏼♂️
Evening Dr Grande, what a spoilt offensive man child, I believe he used undue force on that woman, i believe if he had been told she was alive but critical he would have been "surprised ". I also agree he should have a longer sentence. Thank you Dr Grande. Brilliant analysis, tragic outcome and informative topic.
Yes it is information that matters tied to analysis that follows from the data. Not just turn on the webcam and start yapping! As a result there is less of a sense that the host is only interested in finding a way to profit from others’ tragedies or self-righteously denounce their misconduct. The ‘PBS’ approach to ‘true crime’ media attention!! Posted day 18/23 from Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks for this commentary Dr. Grande. I agree with your assessment. I actually saw the video of this guy's police interview, and everything about him, from his attitude to his speech, greatly annoyed me. He perfectly represents the kind of kids I loathed in university, and for this I think they should have thrown away the key. BTW Dr. Grande your Magic Spoon picture is the first time I've seen you smile. It's quite becoming.
Most people wouldn’t get a slap on the wrist for assaulting a police officer, they did more harm than good by letting that slide. Mandatory AA classes on probation at the very least
Well I saw magic spoon at Walmart today. I was like “yeah! I’m gonna try summa that!” Then I saw the price was $9.79. So y’all gotta let me know if it’s any good or not 😂
I agree. He should have received the maximum! I had to laugh at your comment, "If the town ever became disliked by the public, they could always rename it, Charlie Sheen or Gwyneth Paltrow." 😂 Two extremely unlikable people. Great video, Dr. Grande!
Important facts of the case that Grande left out due to malice or incompetence: 1. Her name is pronounced "Yordley." If you watch the interrogation of Chad Fratman (her ex boyfriend), you can clearly hear that that is how it is pronounced. 2. The entire interrogation of Chad Fratman was ruled inadmissible. The judge claimed that Fratman's speech was incomprehensible. (Fratman would often trail off into a series of unintelligible noises randomly interspersed with the word "like." 3. Chad punched Yordley so hard he tore multiple muscles in his arm and completely shattered the bones in his hand. Her head literally exploded. Despite this, he somehow didn't realize Yordley's injuries were life threatening.
Her death was a loss to our community and a wake up call to the seriousness of abuse in young adults’ relationships and the dangerous levels of alcohol abuse. Dr. Grande, can you profile another family murder case from Cockeysville Md- Nicholas Browning?
I think George was definitely capable of first or second degree murder based on his willingness to break into someone’s home and commit a serious assault but I don’t think there’s enough evidence to say he’s guilty of either charge beyond a reasonable doubt. He’s definitely guilty of manslaughter though, he obviously beat her severely enough that it caused her death and whether or not he intended to kill her, he should’ve known striking someone repeatedly in the head can cause their death... This is an example of why I think many jurisdictions don’t have harsh enough punishments available for people guilty of manslaughter. Even if he’s not guilty of first or second degree murder, I think he should receive the exact same punishment as those who commit premeditated or intentional murder. Even if he didn’t intend to cause her death he should be punished the same way as if he did.
🪲 TXS Dr. Grande for telling BOTH sides of ‘This HANUS CRIME’🔥 I am NOT Blaming ‘Yeardley Love’💙 This is Beyond A Tragedy!!! It is IMPORTANT You share ‘The Abuse Of Alcohol & Signs Of Violence’ in the Relationship as an example of how Substance Abuse, Emotional Abuse & Toxic Relationships End Horrifically!!! It gives us ‘Signs’ to look for in ALL Relationships so this can be prevented!!! Prayers For Yeardley❤️🙏🏼❤️
An excellent analysis, thanks for this one... very disturbing, and it was confusing to the public at the time it happened... something every young person at college should watch...
Straight up murder, I don't care if it takes place over many days, weeks, or months. It's the same. It doesn't matter what her condition was, but for his actions, she would still be alive. 40 years would have been the appropriate sentence.
Had my last drink on 8/19/1999 , after consuming enough to last my lifetime. There, but for the grace of God go I. I thank God every day for protecting me from myself.
I remember lying in my bed when a notification signal rang on my phone. I picked it up and was horrified to learn about this case. Right after that I wrote this comment. My nephew is at the kindergarten.
Hey Dr grade💗💗 Thank you for the new video! It's SO GREAT to be able to watch your videos. It's been quite a bit more difficult now bc of reasons I've Mentioned recently. But things are getting back to normal for me, so I'll be able to watch every single one of your videos again! & ohh am I so excited about that! Much love🙏🥰
I remember this case very well. I 1st learned about this case on a Dateline episode & I went down the 🐇 🕳 watching every single video I could find about her.
Have u seen the recent JCS video of his police interview? I dont think it highlighted just how drunk he was. Made it seem like if he had called for medical help she may have survived but if he was that impaired was he thinking clearly? Although he did seem to recall events pretty well. It's infuriating, ok he didn't intend to kill her but he bust down her door and beat her and just walked away. He lied to cover his tracks. The fact he will leave prison at 42 probably with a nice inheritance from daddy, a place at some firm that won't mind his criminal record and he can just start his life while she's gone forever makes me angry
It’s very scary to know how easily manipulated jurors are. They let him off easy because he “seemed surprised.” I guess every good actor gets a free pass. And maybe the cop misinterpreted his sense of surprise. People value emotion over facts. Sad.
Lying in bed. Broke. No extended family to help with anything. 20+ year old vehicle. 80+ year old home. No vacations. No days off. But I'm not in jail lol 😂😂😂
Where to begin. There is a strong sense of entitlement among students at both the University of Virginia and Washington & Lee University in nearby Lexington where the Lexington cop tried to give George a ride home and ended up having to tase him. Both of these elite and very expensive schools give lip service to attempting to discourage underage drinking, sexual abuse and partying; but their efforts are not very successful. All these kids have to do is leave campus to go to a party. Local sheriff’s offices in the surrounding rural areas do not have the manpower to ride herd on these kids. W&L even provides a bus service so the idiots don’t run into trees. (They all drive cars that are more expensive than my house). George had no business being at UVa., a very selective school. As you point out, he had mediocre grades from an elite private school in Maryland and very wealthy parents who could be counted on to make significant future financial contributions. The fact that he was so inebriated in the presence of his father tells all that you need to know about the quality of parenting in that family. Drinking at colleges and universities is a problem nationwide, not just Virginia. Allegedly college administrators are working to address the problem, although UVa and W&L recently have been more preoccupied with removing memorials to Robert E Lee than dealing with a problem that won’t go away as quickly. The tragic murder of Yeardley certainly drew headlines. However the culture of drinking and sexual abuse still occurs every weekend.
Canada has just (17JAN23) reduced the suggested maximum intake of alcohol to 2 drinks a week. The data on alcohol's negative effects on the body is overwhelming yet alcohol producers have been successful until now to lobby against any government interference.
Oh Dr Grande...when I hear u talking about magic spoon ,that hip hop song Magic Stick plays in my head...now im wondering... If Dr Grande has a magic stick too💋😋😍❗❗
I visited my Dad when he lived in Chevy Chase ( 🇭🇲 the Australian Navy was paying, we weren't rich lol). I was confused by the town name too 😂 Anyone like George that grew up there was VERY privileged - incredibly wealthy and almost crime free. Edit: I suspect George's family wealth helped him get away with a less serious charge. After observing the sort of "well to do" people that lived in Chevy Chase it seems likely this background helped him get away with murder :(
Correction: not everyone in Montgomery County is very wealthy. A lot of us went to public schools. I walked to elementary and junior high school and rode the school bus to Bethesda-Chevy Chase High school. All of my friends did. My dad left every morning to catch the bus to get to his job on Constitution Avenue with the Navy Department. We had one family car. If I wanted to go somewhere, I either walked or took the bus. I will say this. The gap between the very wealthy and more middle class or working class folk has widened unbelievably since my childhood. It’s very disturbing.
My taste in cereal-with-milk runs to the very plain --- Cheerios, wheat chex. That's about it. So I have never tried Magic Spoon that way. But I have tried it dry as a snack and love the pink stuff. Not exactly cheap but it really hits the spot when you're cutting carbs.
Oh, I should add that one of my daughters likes it as regular cereal with milk. I can't remember which flavors but there were a couple she liked. If they really have a money-back offer, it might be worth a try!

What bothers me the most, is she lay mortally injured, and alive for hours and hours alone, before finally dying. If only he had phoned or told someone what happened...she may have lived.
Or maybe she died instantly after the last hit
Doesn't brother me. These girls love Chad so much. As she lay dying I wonder if she ever thought about the misery that she caused when she labeled some nice guy as a creep for having the nerve to speak to her.
@@AboveAvgManhave no clue what you are talking about
Poverty kills so many humans..Wealth set many many murderer free..
This case makes me wonder how many women are in relationships this precipitous, just a moment, a beer, or a text away from irreparable loss.
That is a point to ponder. I would say a lot.....
Lots and lots of women are in situations like that you would be surprised
More than most people would be comfortable realizing.
Possessiveness is human nature..like it or not
Too many
I’ve known a lot of guys kinda like this, obv not this bad, when I was in a fraternity. Some people hit college and just go absolutely insane. I only saw a guy put hands on a girl one time and boy was he dealt with. The crazy part though was we had a taxi bring her home and the address she gave turned out to be that same dudes house! 🤦🏼♂️
😭
You learned something that day !!
Poor George. He can't help it. Excitable boy they all said.
Hi Dr. Grande, can you cover the latest police officer scandal in Tennessee?
I was thinking Magic Spoon was a whole other thing. 😂
I watched a long video about this murder a few days ago. He brutally murdered her, kept beating her, and than acts surprised that she`s dead.
Man I love Dr Grande! His videos are a perfect break between studying and class.❤
You know what they say... Cheaters never win.
...& Winners Never Cheat! Now you know, & knowing is half the battle!
I'll be saving this for when I go to bed in an hour. Thanks for another great video Dr. Grande! sending support from Canada!! 🇨🇦
I thought I was the only one. I listen to something every night.
Are you insane? Do you even listen to the words you type? Thanking him for a great video. People like you are what is wrong with this world
Thanks!
Ahahahaha Gwyneth Paltrow burn 🔥 = pure gold ✨️ 🤣 thank you Dr G for always brightening my day with your awesomely spot-on observations ! ❤️
As someone who can't stand her and her out of touch Goop, I loved this. Dr. G is spot on!
Alcohol plays a role in 40% of violent crimes in the U.S.
And other drugs in the remaining 60%?

13% of the US population is responsible for 50% of all violent crimes.
Thank you very much for explaining about Chase. I've often wondered about that.
Hey there @DrGrande, can you cover the Ana Walshe case?
He can. But he will need you to buy some cereal first
The thing that struck me the most in this video is the fact that there are Keto friendly cereals 😮❤
dr. grande, your commercial for magic spoon is hilarious...thanks
Evening Dr Grande, what a spoilt offensive man child, I believe he used undue force on that woman, i believe if he had been told she was alive but critical he would have been "surprised ". I also agree he should have a longer sentence. Thank you Dr Grande. Brilliant analysis, tragic outcome and informative topic.
I really like the depth you explore for your videos. Always impressed with your stories and hilarious pins and jokes ❤😊
Yes it is information that matters tied to analysis that follows from the data. Not just turn on the webcam and start yapping! As a result there is less of a sense that the host is only interested in finding a way to profit from others’ tragedies or self-righteously denounce their misconduct. The ‘PBS’ approach to ‘true crime’ media attention!!
Posted day 18/23 from Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks for this commentary Dr. Grande. I agree with your assessment. I actually saw the video of this guy's police interview, and everything about him, from his attitude to his speech, greatly annoyed me. He perfectly represents the kind of kids I loathed in university, and for this I think they should have thrown away the key.
BTW Dr. Grande your Magic Spoon picture is the first time I've seen you smile. It's quite becoming.
What an intense story. Fascinating.
Great video Dr. His behavior reflects the DC consoles recommendations for eliminating minimum sentencing. 👍
His parents are culpable in Love’s death, having enabled their son his entire life. They knew their son was a problem.
What most rich do ignored the issues and act like they're the perfect RICH family.
It's a sad reality that lots of families have offspring with disturbed personalities and do nothing about it.
Most people wouldn’t get a slap on the wrist for assaulting a police officer, they did more harm than good by letting that slide. Mandatory AA classes on probation at the very least
Brilliant dissection (analysis) of this case and the personalities involved. I loved it.
Just in time. It is 06.51 am and time for breakfast.
Thnx for the great content and the reliable schedule.
12:59 am here and I should go to bed but I can’t resist

yes do merissa is she kosha
Well I saw magic spoon at Walmart today. I was like “yeah! I’m gonna try summa that!” Then I saw the price was $9.79. So y’all gotta let me know if it’s any good or not 😂
You made me laugh out loud with the Charlie and Gwyneth comment.
I agree. He should have received the maximum!
I had to laugh at your comment, "If the town ever became disliked by the public, they could always rename it, Charlie Sheen or Gwyneth Paltrow." 😂 Two extremely unlikable people.
Great video, Dr. Grande!
Important facts of the case that Grande left out due to malice or incompetence:
1. Her name is pronounced "Yordley." If you watch the interrogation of Chad Fratman (her ex boyfriend), you can clearly hear that that is how it is pronounced.
2. The entire interrogation of Chad Fratman was ruled inadmissible. The judge claimed that Fratman's speech was incomprehensible. (Fratman would often trail off into a series of unintelligible noises randomly interspersed with the word "like."
3. Chad punched Yordley so hard he tore multiple muscles in his arm and completely shattered the bones in his hand. Her head literally exploded. Despite this, he somehow didn't realize Yordley's injuries were life threatening.
Agreed, but, for what it's worth, Chevy Chase is kinda a jerk IRL himself.
That's why Dr Grande throw their names in their lol
@Glow Yes! 😆, especially Gweneth Paltrow. Actually, both. Lol
Always interesting. About people, I've never heard of or don't care about.
Thank you
Peace 💕🇺🇲
The father ignoring his son's severe alcohol problem instead being more worried about saving face... i wish I could not relate.
Her death was a loss to our community and a wake up call to the seriousness of abuse in young adults’ relationships and the dangerous levels of alcohol abuse.
Dr. Grande, can you profile another family murder case from Cockeysville Md- Nicholas Browning?
I think George was definitely capable of first or second degree murder based on his willingness to break into someone’s home and commit a serious assault but I don’t think there’s enough evidence to say he’s guilty of either charge beyond a reasonable doubt.
He’s definitely guilty of manslaughter though, he obviously beat her severely enough that it caused her death and whether or not he intended to kill her, he should’ve known striking someone repeatedly in the head can cause their death...
This is an example of why I think many jurisdictions don’t have harsh enough punishments available for people guilty of manslaughter. Even if he’s not guilty of first or second degree murder, I think he should receive the exact same punishment as those who commit premeditated or intentional murder. Even if he didn’t intend to cause her death he should be punished the same way as if he did.
I like this idea. I would love to see every car driver get life in jail when they cause a death in traffic.
@@MrAerohank true
🪲 TXS Dr. Grande for telling BOTH sides of ‘This HANUS CRIME’🔥 I am NOT Blaming ‘Yeardley Love’💙 This is Beyond A Tragedy!!! It is IMPORTANT You share ‘The Abuse Of Alcohol & Signs Of Violence’ in the Relationship as an example of how Substance Abuse, Emotional Abuse & Toxic Relationships End Horrifically!!! It gives us ‘Signs’ to look for in ALL Relationships so this can be prevented!!! Prayers For Yeardley❤️🙏🏼❤️
Walking around and right back to a violent abusive drunk. Thanks doc.
Love the well warranted shade that Dr G. threw at Charlie Sheen ! 😲😱😅😂🤣
An excellent analysis, thanks for this one... very disturbing, and it was confusing to the public at the time it happened... something every young person at college should watch...
I'd be interested to see a video on the mental health factors of Peter Sellers.
Haha! I got a YT ad within the Dr's cereal ad. Crazy!
Pretty bad when there is an ad break for another company in the middle of your ad break!
I never considered the sound of paint drying until I listened to this. His voice is the embodiment of listening to paint dry.
Thank you, Dr Grande
Once again you made me laugh! Your sense of humor adds the cherry on top!
🤔
He is funny but the content is horrific.
Thanks Dr. Grande! Hope you’re doing well. 🙂✌🏼
Thanks for telling us about magic spoon.
Excellent points and conclusion Dr. Grande. (Side note.. love my home state of Maryland ♥️🤍🖤💛 🦀 specifically my home town, Annapolis 💕).
Straight up murder, I don't care if it takes place over many days, weeks, or months. It's the same. It doesn't matter what her condition was, but for his actions, she would still be alive. 40 years would have been the appropriate sentence.
I agree. Very disheartened by this case😔
I agree, but it was apparently a jury of his peers 🤮
Liquor is no one’s friend. Sadly preventable
Had my last drink on 8/19/1999 , after consuming enough to last my lifetime. There, but for the grace of God go I. I thank God every day for protecting me from myself.
Dr Grande, Could u please talk about the Ana Walshe case?
I've watched George's interrogation and I'd be surprised if his IQ is much over 70.
I don't mean to correct you but I think you may have made a slight typo 07 is his actual IQ not 70.
Certainly he should not have been at college.
I remember being in my pharmacy & getting a paperback about the case. My nephew was headed to UVA that Sept.
I remember lying in my bed when a notification signal rang on my phone. I picked it up and was horrified to learn about this case. Right after that I wrote this comment. My nephew is at the kindergarten.
I was a first year student at UVa when this happened. What a horrible, sad, bizarre way to end the year.
Ha ha..... I love your Magic Spoon commercial... Way to go Dr. Grande!
Hey Dr grade💗💗 Thank you for the new video! It's SO GREAT to be able to watch your videos. It's been quite a bit more difficult now bc of reasons I've Mentioned recently. But things are getting back to normal for me, so I'll be able to watch every single one of your videos again! & ohh am I so excited about that! Much love🙏🥰
@R Voit ~NO!! I had another baby! It has NOTHING to do with my wifi🙄
@R Voit~I JUST turned 33 & this was my 8th baby. I had my 1st born when I was only 17yrs old. So have I lost my mind? Maybe, but not my wifi🤣
George’s voice would’ve killed me.
😮 Gwyneth Paltrow?! Lol that one caught me off guard.
Love the passive-aggressive sense of humour
It’s sarcasm. Not passive aggression.
I like your colored lights in the background.
What an insanely senseless death.
They had the Death Penalty in Va back then. Why wasn't it used?
Still have the death penalty in Virginia but not for second degree murder

@@Dulcimertunes That is an ignorant statement. Read the studies. The opposite is true.
Such a sad and avoidable tragedy
I remember this case very well. I 1st learned about this case on a Dateline episode & I went down the 🐇 🕳 watching every single video I could find about her.
Have u seen the recent JCS video of his police interview? I dont think it highlighted just how drunk he was. Made it seem like if he had called for medical help she may have survived but if he was that impaired was he thinking clearly? Although he did seem to recall events pretty well. It's infuriating, ok he didn't intend to kill her but he bust down her door and beat her and just walked away. He lied to cover his tracks. The fact he will leave prison at 42 probably with a nice inheritance from daddy, a place at some firm that won't mind his criminal record and he can just start his life while she's gone forever makes me angry
*Dr. Todd Grande (George Huguely) (Magic Spoon) appreciate your videos Listening 🌼 From Mass USA TYVM 🇺🇸 Todd*
It’s very scary to know how easily manipulated jurors are. They let him off easy because he “seemed surprised.” I guess every good actor gets a free pass. And maybe the cop misinterpreted his sense of surprise. People value emotion over facts. Sad.
There’s a street in Glendale California called Chevy Chase , was that named after the highly acclaimed actor from the movie Fletch
Good Day, Dr. Grande. Haven't been able to keep up, I have a broken arm. Ouch! Carry on..... 👌😭
Dr. Grande- Can you please do your take on John Stonehouse, the UK minister who faked his own death in 1974?
I always just think about George’s voice saying YORDLAYY
Lying in bed. Broke. No extended family to help with anything. 20+ year old vehicle. 80+ year old home. No vacations. No days off.
But I'm not in jail lol 😂😂😂
Where to begin. There is a strong sense of entitlement among students at both the University of Virginia and Washington & Lee University in nearby Lexington where the Lexington cop tried to give George a ride home and ended up having to tase him. Both of these elite and very expensive schools give lip service to attempting to discourage underage drinking, sexual abuse and partying; but their efforts are not very successful. All these kids have to do is leave campus to go to a party. Local sheriff’s offices in the surrounding rural areas do not have the manpower to ride herd on these kids. W&L even provides a bus service so the idiots don’t run into trees. (They all drive cars that are more expensive than my house).
George had no business being at UVa., a very selective school. As you point out, he had mediocre grades from an elite private school in Maryland and very wealthy parents who could be counted on to make significant future financial contributions. The fact that he was so inebriated in the presence of his father tells all that you need to know about the quality of parenting in that family.
Drinking at colleges and universities is a problem nationwide, not just Virginia. Allegedly college administrators are working to address the problem, although UVa and W&L recently have been more preoccupied with removing memorials to Robert E Lee than dealing with a problem that won’t go away as quickly.
The tragic murder of Yeardley certainly drew headlines. However the culture of drinking and sexual abuse still occurs every weekend.
Canada has just (17JAN23) reduced the suggested maximum intake of alcohol to 2 drinks a week.
The data on alcohol's negative effects on the body is overwhelming yet alcohol producers have been successful until now to lobby against any government interference.
Moral as you become an adult? Booze causes most violence in relationships! Watch the news. Watch a forensics doc. Look at people you know.
So true.
The good Doctor's love for cacti is notable
Oh Dr Grande...when I hear u talking about magic spoon ,that hip hop song Magic Stick plays in my head...now im wondering... If Dr Grande has a magic stick too💋😋😍❗❗
I visited my Dad when he lived in Chevy Chase ( 🇭🇲 the Australian Navy was paying, we weren't rich lol). I was confused by the town name too 😂 Anyone like George that grew up there was VERY privileged - incredibly wealthy and almost crime free. Edit: I suspect George's family wealth helped him get away with a less serious charge. After observing the sort of "well to do" people that lived in Chevy Chase it seems likely this background helped him get away with murder :(
The best lawyers aren't cheap.
Absolutely
He's serving 23 years. It's not like he walked, or only got a few years. He's doing hard time in a maximum security prison.
Yep. And they're the same types who will preach about "personal responsibility", but families are always rising and falling in America.
Correction: not everyone in Montgomery County is very wealthy. A lot of us went to public schools. I walked to elementary and junior high school and rode the school bus to Bethesda-Chevy Chase High school. All of my friends did. My dad left every morning to catch the bus to get to his job on Constitution Avenue with the Navy Department. We had one family car. If I wanted to go somewhere, I either walked or took the bus.
I will say this. The gap between the very wealthy and more middle class or working class folk has widened unbelievably since my childhood. It’s very disturbing.
Thank you Dr Grande.....I love reading and listening to your videos. Love your analysis. I think you are quite awesome. Thank you ❤️❤️
Hello 👋 good Dr. Grande 😀
Has anyone tried magic spoon? Is it actually good? Cuz most keto friendly cereals I've tried have been cheeks
My taste in cereal-with-milk runs to the very plain --- Cheerios, wheat chex. That's about it.
So I have never tried Magic Spoon that way. But I have tried it dry as a snack and love the pink stuff.
Not exactly cheap but it really hits the spot when you're cutting carbs.
Yes, we’ve tried it and it’s good. Low carb and gluten free for me.
Oh, I should add that one of my daughters likes it as regular cereal with milk. I can't remember which flavors but there were a couple she liked. If they really have a money-back offer, it might be worth a try!
Never try Keto bread!
I would like to buy magic spoon, but it is so darn expensive.
@Sarah W check out the price before you say that
I can't afford food anymore..
I live on water and I swallow air.
23 years in not a slap on the wrist and reflects a real distinction between first and second degree murder.
