I don’t for one minute believe that those murderers, including Sandra, had intentions of anything other than ending the life of Summer. The murdering MIL should have also have got life in prison.
I actually think her lighter sentence was probably fair; if you think about the views of her husband and how they were passed on to the son, she had obviously been under the same kind of domination and control that Summer was trying to escape from, but in her case for like fifty years. That doesn't mean she wasn't responsible for what she did, but fifty years of abuse will really damage a person. I'm completely willing to believe that her husband and son thought up this plan and she felt like she didn't have a choice about going along with it, because she probably felt like she didn't have a choice about pretty much anything in her life. Victims of abuse go along with what's happening, it's a survival strategy.
@@flingonber Sandra was just as controlling of Summer and was a primary driver in the kidnapping. Suffering in your life doesn't grant you immunity from punishment. You probably want to let child abusers go free because many were abused themselves.
@@sternshadowdude2 No, actually, I don't. And, I'm guessing unlike you, I have actually worked with survivors of CSA (both adults and children) as a mental health clinician. So the first thing that's wrong with what you're saying is that the whole premise is not really true - victims of abuse IN GENERAL are more likely to commit crimes as adults, but the only sex crime that victims of CSA are significantly more likely to be arrested for is prostitution. Victims of physical abuse, on the other hand, are significantly more likely to be arrested for violent crimes in general, and violent sex crimes in particular. So if your dad beat you, guess what? You're more likely to commit CSA than someone who was a victim of CSA themselves. That aside, what I DO think is that only people who aren't very bright want to see the world in black-and-white terms. Pedos didn't choose to be what they are, and you can have compassion for them and the situation that they're in, ESPECIALLY if they were also victims, and still recognize that they are dangerous and that children need to be protected from them. Just like you can recognize that the woman in this case was broken down from years of abuse and domination and also deserves some compassion. Recognizing the causes and conditions that lead to a particular outcome doesn't preclude seeing that outcome as unacceptable. I'm sure that's way too nuanced for you, though, because it sounds like you're still stuck in the five-year-olds idea of "good guys" and "bad guys".
Too bad Sandy escaped with such a light sentence. She should be spending the rest of her life in prison as well. Vile, evil woman. Puts me in mind of Donna Adelson.

I wouldn't advise people to do what she did, she should have just left but I don't think in this case it would have made any difference. Her husband himself made it clear: "If you leave me, I will murder you". There was probably nothing she could have done to escape this situation. The moment she became romantically involved with Will, she was destined to be murdered by him because he both makes his partner's life hell and then kills the partner for not wanting to live in that hell.
@@tarstarkusz if you grow up abused, and they love bomb you, you think things are great. Someone finally accepts and loves you. You’re going to get to do everything right and give your kids the life you dreamed of. Love, safety, a family. Then they change. Some people it’s right after the wedding, some it’s after a pregnancy, others it’s after you quit your job and move, because you’re locked in- trapped. Then the control, neglect, emotional abuse or even physical may start. You try to get the magic back & please them, make yourself worthy of being treated like they used to. You’re used to being the one that’s at fault. You’re used to believing that if only you were BETTER they would love you again. You may spend yeeeears like that, till you find a lifeline out. That’s how this goes, too often. Kids in homes where they aren’t loved, every step is criticized, do this all the time; they are forever at risk… unless THEY become the abuser. They are taught, from birth, they can be victims or in control. Depends on their wiring which way they go. Those are just my observations, anyway. I had the opportunity to watch it play out a few generations, now. It sucks, but you can’t fix it. I wasn’t able to, anyway. You can have a small effect, on the children, help program them to seek out healthy attention by giving them that while with them. You can’t counter their environment. They play out their childhoods, like I did. I couldn’t really escape either. She almost got away, I hate that she didn’t. At least her children aren’t exposed to those particular monsters, anymore. Hopefully the new environment is less awful. Maybe, they have a chance, but probably not. Personalities are formed in the first 3 years, for the most part. After that… you’re going against programming.
Too bad that they weren’t thinking of the 3 children involved. They have lost both of their parents and their paternal grandparents. No matter what their mother did, they certainly don’t deserve such suffering
So, in the Bible, adultery is a sin, and why an adulterous wife gains so much sympathy? What they did to her was wrong, but what she did to them was also very wrong.
What do you disagree with in my comment? I feel terrible for the children involved. They still ask about their father and paternal grandparents. The adults involved in the murder plot have done extensive damage to these poor children. They don’t deserve it
And yet, you seem to have no compassion whatsoever for a mother, a woman, who was treated as a slave by her own husband and inlaws. And then murdered and dumped in a septic tank. Did it ever occur to you that her "wrongdoing", her affair, was actually an attempt to escape an intolerable situation of coercive control and objectification?@@samb4697
@@samb4697you’re being obtuse on purpose. at the end of the day, if you’re religious, only god casts judgement and we don’t have the right to do that - but the family are a bunch of narcissists and thought otherwise. additionally, planned murder is so clearly miles worse than adultery.
@@samb4697Jesus Christ!! The woman suffered an abusive marriage and constant harassment from her in laws and finally escaped with the help of a kind man. Of course cheating is wrong but under the circumstances I understand why she left the way she did because she felt it was safer.

@@KaraLey98you don't listen well then, she had parents, children & a boyfriend at the very least. The parents were searching for her when she missed work.
Summer’s parents, Michael and Debra Cook, took the children in. There is a counselor who also worked with the children and the grandparents.This happened in my home county and it was covered extensively by local media.
It’s truly scary how people have all these strange and abnormal ideas in their minds - like the mother who wanted to control the young family, like the husband who wanted multiple wives, etc - they all needed to seek psychological help at some point, but they chose murder. This is so sad
This man threatened to murder his wife, and there are really men's rights activists in the comments saying "You cant blame him! She left and took the kids!" Right, because daddy murderer would be safe for them.
All these people have to do is look two hours west of where this happened to see another man who was like Will, a man who controlled his wife, and who threatened to kill if she left him--Chad Doerman. And that's what he did. Three people dead. And let's not forget the family tried to get Adam arrested on false claims of child abuse. But we're supposed to be upset with Summer because she didn't want her children around them? We're ignoring the fact that he straight up lost custody?
Anyone who uses threats to kill themselves or their partner for leaving or not obeying them, is voluntarily giving up any rights they had. It is vile emotional manipulation and abuse and reason to keep them far away from any partner or children they have.
A Grandmother desperate to believe that her grandchildren are her own, that in itself is weirdly, dangerous thinking to me. Could be the 'side effects' from being attached to a 'hostile' man, plus a son who is the evil clone of his father!
@@firelordplayz I mean I'll be the first one to denounce cheating, but it sounds like she didn't exactly consent to the relationship, considering she was staying under the threat of murder. She wasn't a wife at that point, she was a prisoner.
@@iloveyoulawliet179 Even if that was the case, it makes no sense she was afraid or incapable of leaving but not afraid or incapable of cheating. Should have been more afraid of the latter, right?
Religious people seem to be disproportionately represented in the criminal population. At least judging by Grande's case list. Don't become involved with the strongly religious. However it plays out, it won't be a happy life.
If youre going to blame Summer for "taking the kids away," why not blame her mother-in-law for trying to take Summer's children away? Aside from preserving her own life, that's a huge factor in why Summer left.
That would be inspiring. Good idea 💡. We need some good news in this country now. It is kind of falling apart. Scary that the American monster may return. America s national disgrace. Mastermind behind January 6th. 😢😢😢😢
You always know how to get me right, Dr Grande! I was looking for a video to listen to for the last 13 minutes of my work day. Keep up the great work! 🎉
Dr. Grande, have you covered the other notorious murder case in southern Ohio where 8 members of the Rhoden family were shot by the Wagner family? It was in Pike County and involved a child custody dispute. Tragic.
I find this one of the most tragic cases, I have heard so fare. That young woman wanted nothing but a loving family and a suporting husband. But instead of Christians, she gets fire and brimstone breathind defenders of the old Testament! Belive what you want, but dont force it on other people! And live in the present time! To destroy the free will of a person is an unforgifable sinn, and should anyone - especially a "spiritual leader" demand it of you- you know your in a Sekt! ... Cult!.... Fanatics!
you never fail to empress Dr Grande... i often enjoy chuckling away to ur dry humor .. but with these type of terribly sad matters you display such stoic empathy and respect for these victims.. so very well done and quite admirable Dr Grande.. love from Australia ..
What I was thinking … what if they had had Factor … instead of this poor woman being a sex slave , and being required to cook perfect meals … they could have had Factor … then it would have just been the sex issue …. Who knows what might have happened … feel sorry for Summer
I’m from Athens Ohio (just 15 minutes south of Nelsonville). I remember when this happened and how everyone was out looking for this poor woman and how it was all over the news. This sorta thing doesn’t happen very often around here.
Usually I think adultery is so wrong, and I tend to judge anyone who commits it, but in this case, I can't find it within myself to blame Summer at all! Yikes! I feel awful for her. And she had escaped somehow! Or so it seemed. Ugh. May she rest in peace.
Every time you get me 😂 I apologize but when you make those undertones i burst out laughing and were talking about something horrible. ❤ Thank you for delivering sensitive information with couth.
I lived in Nelsonville in 2011, 20 min from Logan and went to Hocking College where they offer that culinary program, its a very popular degree. I visited friends in Logan often. I never heard of this case, so scary! Worst year of my life. Met my abusive ex husband then and there.

Jeezez, whats wrong with people🙄 Killing someone for wanting a divorce is just plain mental. Planning a kidnapping?! Thats even worse - you are destined to get caught. Poor children, now they have no one💔
Dr. Grande, you forgot to tell us what happened to the kids? I wonder where they were when their mother was being chased down and so heartlessly killed. Where did they go after everything played out? Thank-you for all of your hard work.
Summer’s parents took the children in. A counselor was assigned to work with the children and grandparents. This happened in my county and was covered extensively by local media.
Cheating is never a good idea, regardless of circumstances. If you're unhappy and don't want to be in a relationship, leave it. Also, never be violent against someone who cheated on you. Leave them. Let them fend for themself. Politely leave and let karma take over.
OMG why do people think it's fine to murder? And what's up with those who are super religious and think it's better to murder. What happened to there belief of though shall not kill? CrAzY
I wonder why they didn’t use the Bible as justification for their LYING? Their God hates 7 things, among them LYING. I’m pretty sure murder killing is frowned upon, too, since Jahwe decided it was important enough to be included on those stone tablets Moses brought down from the mountain.
Those who have a passing understanding of felony murder statutes understand that all three were guilty of murder regardless of intent. This leads to some interesting outcomes. For example, if Summer had strangled Will Jr in the back seat, her act would have been in self defense. Yet both parents could have been convicted for first degree murder. The reason this is so is because the death of Will would have happened during the commission of a felony, that is, kidnapping.
Hey doc! Just got to my mom's house to clean (she's getting older) and your vid just landed. She doesn't mind when I stream you from her TV. So I get to clean and listen to your content. Thanks again doc! Bless 🙏🙏🙏
I think Will is as Bill was. Like father like son. A contractor doing what contractors do best (head scratch). The victim led a threatened life but found relief in a readily available lover. The manner of abduction was laughable. Just to think they could get away with it is a measure of their intelligence and self importance.
The whole family believed that they had a right to control Summer, and Grandma was trying to steal her children away from her. Summer left because Will had threatened her life, and she wanted to keep her babies, as any mother would.
The family was so focused on the commandment _Thou shall not commit adultery_ that they totally forgot about _Thou shall not murder_ - what a bunch of kooks!
Dr. Grande, checking YT for your latest video is one of the high points of my day. One case I'd be interested in seeing your take on is Gia Carangi; I think both her true story and her portrayal by Angelina Jolie could benefit from your insight
Someone cheated? Get a divorce. The moral response. You would think that Bible loving people would be familiar with the “1st Commandment.” Thou shalt not kill.

That’s how this goes, too often. Kids in homes where they aren’t loved, every step is criticized, do this all the time; they are forever at risk… unless THEY become the abuser. They are taught, from birth, they can be victims or in control. Depends on their wiring which way they go. Those are just my observations, anyway. I had the opportunity to watch it play out a few generations, now. It sucks, but you can’t fix it. I wasn’t able to, anyway. You can have a small effect, on the children, help program them to seek out healthy attention by giving them that while with them. You can’t counter their environment. They play out their childhoods, like I did. I couldn’t really escape either. She almost got away, I hate that she didn’t. At least her children aren’t exposed to those particular monsters, anymore. Hopefully the new environment is less awful. Maybe, they have a chance, but probably not. Personalities are formed in the first 3 years, for the most part. After that… you’re going against programming.
Hey, Dr. Grande. You will never run out of cases to analyze... 😅 Keep up the great work!
Too bad that they weren’t thinking of the 3 children involved. They have lost both of their parents and their paternal grandparents. No matter what their mother did, they certainly don’t deserve such suffering
So, in the Bible, adultery is a sin, and why an adulterous wife gains so much sympathy? What they did to her was wrong, but what she did to them was also very wrong.
What do you disagree with in my comment? I feel terrible for the children involved. They still ask about their father and paternal grandparents. The adults involved in the murder plot have done extensive damage to these poor children. They don’t deserve it
And yet, you seem to have no compassion whatsoever for a mother, a woman, who was treated as a slave by her own husband and inlaws. And then murdered and dumped in a septic tank.
Did it ever occur to you that her "wrongdoing", her affair, was actually an attempt to escape an intolerable situation of coercive control and objectification?@@samb4697
@@samb4697you’re being obtuse on purpose. at the end of the day, if you’re religious, only god casts judgement and we don’t have the right to do that - but the family are a bunch of narcissists and thought otherwise. additionally, planned murder is so clearly miles worse than adultery.
@@samb4697Jesus Christ!! The woman suffered an abusive marriage and constant harassment from her in laws and finally escaped with the help of a kind man.
Of course cheating is wrong but under the circumstances I understand why she left the way she did because she felt it was safer. She was of course proven right because the lunatics kidnapped and killed her!!
Who gives a shit what you consider a ‘sin’?
This woman lost her life and those kids lost their mother. I hope they suffer every single day for what they did to those kids.
God help your spouse if you have one, sounds like they need it if this is all you have to say about this tragedy.
Another example of people using religion to justify their abominable behavior and evil actions. I feel sorry for the children left behind.
I can’t think of anywhere worse to be dumped. Her poor family!
@@KaraLey98you don't listen well then, she had parents, children & a boyfriend at the very least. The parents were searching for her when she missed work.
So, what happened to the innocent grandchildren? Now they have nobody. Good going revenge seeking grand parents 😞😣
They don't mind. Trust me. They don't give two sh!ts about those kids. It was only about control
Summer’s parents, Michael and Debra Cook, took the children in. There is a counselor who also worked with the children and the grandparents.This happened in my home county and it was covered extensively by local media.
@@Muffy-b1gthank you for the info. I was wondering too.
I’m glad they got to stay with their grandparents. And I’m glad they all got counseling. God what an awful family the in laws were
Part of being a parent is keeping your children from doing things…these two must have missed that memo.
Cactus lovers unite!
They don’t all look like saguaro, but that’s an iconic representative.

remember, safe sex or no sex you crazy lovers ya! 🌵🩸🤕
hmm, nevermind I see how that's just not be possible😋
I’ve never owned a cactus but would like to purchase one. any suggestions? 🙏🏽
OUCH: Order of United Cactus Huggers
It’s truly scary how people have all these strange and abnormal ideas in their minds - like the mother who wanted to control the young family, like the husband who wanted multiple wives, etc - they all needed to seek psychological help at some point, but they chose murder. This is so sad
I think for April 1st you could evaluate Sméagol/Gollum.
This man threatened to murder his wife, and there are really men's rights activists in the comments saying "You cant blame him! She left and took the kids!"
Right, because daddy murderer would be safe for them.
All these people have to do is look two hours west of where this happened to see another man who was like Will, a man who controlled his wife, and who threatened to kill if she left him--Chad Doerman. And that's what he did. Three people dead.
And let's not forget the family tried to get Adam arrested on false claims of child abuse. But we're supposed to be upset with Summer because she didn't want her children around them? We're ignoring the fact that he straight up lost custody?
Men having rights is a good thing.
Anyone who uses threats to kill themselves or their partner for leaving or not obeying them, is voluntarily giving up any rights they had. It is vile emotional manipulation and abuse and reason to keep them far away from any partner or children they have.
A Grandmother desperate to believe that her grandchildren are her own, that in itself is weirdly, dangerous thinking to me. Could be the 'side effects' from being attached to a 'hostile' man, plus a son who is the evil clone of his father!
Accidentally strangled Summer with a zip tie? How can that be an accident?! 😮
It's nice to see a traditional family and their values.
How terrible they did this to Summer. I will never understand how cruel people can be😔Great points again. Thanks Dr G😊❤❤
I think it's cause Summer cheated and took the children. Still didn't deserve to die but she definitely wasn't a saint herself. She FOFO.
@@firelordplayz I mean I'll be the first one to denounce cheating, but it sounds like she didn't exactly consent to the relationship, considering she was staying under the threat of murder. She wasn't a wife at that point, she was a prisoner.
@@iloveyoulawliet179 Even if that was the case, it makes no sense she was afraid or incapable of leaving but not afraid or incapable of cheating. Should have been more afraid of the latter, right?
A cosy corner of calm and crime❤LOVE this channel
Religious people seem to be disproportionately represented in the criminal population. At least judging by Grande's case list.
Don't become involved with the strongly religious. However it plays out, it won't be a happy life.
Exactly 💯
If youre going to blame Summer for "taking the kids away," why not blame her mother-in-law for trying to take Summer's children away?
Aside from preserving her own life, that's a huge factor in why Summer left.
The in-laws from hell
Please thank your wife for sharing you with us. XxxOoo
Dr. Grande bringing us some Summer in the winter
I wonder if you could find someone who does something positive, and share their traits.
That would be inspiring. Good idea 💡. We need some good news in this country now. It is kind of falling apart. Scary that the American monster may return. America s national disgrace. Mastermind behind January 6th. 😢😢😢😢
did DR. Grande just say opposed to his "ejection"???? best thing i heard all day
Hi Dr Grande. I've followed your channel for SO long, and will continue to follow your channel.
I bet the grandkids hate their guts. What a horrible crime.
But you can't 'unintentionally' murder someone with a zip tie.
You always know how to get me right, Dr Grande! I was looking for a video to listen to for the last 13 minutes of my work day. Keep up the great work! 🎉
“Where there’s a Will there’s a way” brilliant
Thank you for all your great work, Dr. Grande! Can you analyze the case of Jeff Pelo?
Dr. Grande, have you covered the other notorious murder case in southern Ohio where 8 members of the Rhoden family were shot by the Wagner family? It was in Pike County and involved a child custody dispute. Tragic.
I find this one of the most tragic cases, I have heard so fare.
That young woman wanted nothing but a loving family and a suporting husband.
But instead of Christians, she gets fire and brimstone breathind defenders of the old Testament!
Belive what you want, but dont force it on other people! And live in the present time!
To destroy the free will of a person is an unforgifable sinn, and should anyone - especially a "spiritual leader" demand it of you- you know your in a Sekt! ... Cult!.... Fanatics!
"That young woman wanted nothing but a loving family and a suporting husband".
She wanted the loving family so much she banged the guy's friend.
What a nightmare to end up in a family of psychos.
you never fail to empress Dr Grande... i often enjoy chuckling away to ur dry humor .. but with these type of terribly sad matters you display such stoic empathy and respect for these victims.. so very well done and quite admirable Dr Grande.. love from Australia ..
What Will needed was Factor prepared meals.
What I was thinking … what if they had had Factor … instead of this poor woman being a sex slave , and being required to cook perfect meals … they could have had Factor … then it would have just been the sex issue …. Who knows what might have happened … feel sorry for Summer
Oh this was so heartbreaking. They threw her body in a septic tank???! Monsters! Her poor parents
I’m from Athens Ohio (just 15 minutes south of Nelsonville). I remember when this happened and how everyone was out looking for this poor woman and how it was all over the news. This sorta thing doesn’t happen very often around here.
Usually I think adultery is so wrong, and I tend to judge anyone who commits it, but in this case, I can't find it within myself to blame Summer at all! Yikes! I feel awful for her. And she had escaped somehow! Or so it seemed. Ugh. May she rest in peace.
Plus, she filed for divorce when it was discovered. I think the affair was what pushed her to escape her horrible marriage and in-laws.
She FOFO.
@@firelordplayzDo you feel that way for males who do the same?
She did not. This comment is so disingenuous.
She was in a terrible place.@@firelordplayz
@@firelordplayzwhat does FOFO mean?
What a nice, loving, wholesome family!
Thanks Dr Grande.
You do a fantastic job analysing these cases. Thank you Dr. Todd . Spot on 💯
Every time you get me 😂 I apologize but when you make those undertones i burst out laughing and were talking about something horrible. ❤ Thank you for delivering sensitive information with couth.
Thank you for the upload, Doc. Your channel is so interesting and a highlight of my day! Thank you.
Where there’s a Will there’s a way 😂😂
aaaahahahahahaahahahaha
I lived in Nelsonville in 2011, 20 min from Logan and went to Hocking College where they offer that culinary program, its a very popular degree. I visited friends in Logan often. I never heard of this case, so scary! Worst year of my life. Met my abusive ex husband then and there.
Some folks minds are just warped beyond comprehension.
Thanks for the upload, Dr. Grande! Your true fans love your humor and sarcasm. January 23 is National Pie Day (gotta have a Swiss Chalet chicken pot pie later!), National Compliment Day, National Rhubarb Pie Day, National Handwriting Day, National Peanut Butter Day (gotta have a Western Family smooth peanut butter sandwich later!), Measure Your Feet Day, and Snowplow Mailbox Hockey Day.
Jeezez, whats wrong with people🙄
Killing someone for wanting a divorce is just plain mental. Planning a kidnapping?! Thats even worse - you are destined to get caught.
Poor children, now they have no one💔
RIP Summer ❤😢😮
As a pastor’s kid of a pastor’s kid, I’ve been around A LOT of churches. A church name like “faith tabernacle” would be a red flag lol
It always boggles my mind that people can think that infidelity and divorce is against their 'values' but murder isn't. Sick.
The amount of hypocrisy, entitlement, and delusion this family displayed is absolutely insane.
Dr. Grande, you forgot to tell us what happened to the kids? I wonder where they were when their mother was being chased down and so heartlessly killed. Where did they go after everything played out? Thank-you for all of your hard work.
Summer’s parents took the children in. A counselor was assigned to work with the children and grandparents. This happened in my county and was covered extensively by local media.
Cheating is never a good idea, regardless of circumstances. If you're unhappy and don't want to be in a relationship, leave it. Also, never be violent against someone who cheated on you. Leave them. Let them fend for themself. Politely leave and let karma take over.
Hi Dr. Grande, excellent analysis, as always I learn something new from your videos .
OMG why do people think it's fine to murder? And what's up with those who are super religious and think it's better to murder. What happened to there belief of though shall not kill? CrAzY
The OT is full of rape, incest, and murder so….🤷♀️
I wonder why they didn’t use the Bible as justification for their LYING? Their God hates 7 things, among them LYING. I’m pretty sure murder killing is frowned upon, too, since Jahwe decided it was important enough to be included on those stone tablets Moses brought down from the mountain.
Always interesting
Thank you❤
Those who have a passing understanding of felony murder statutes understand that all three were guilty of murder regardless of intent.
This leads to some interesting outcomes. For example, if Summer had strangled Will Jr in the back seat, her act would have been in self defense. Yet both parents could have been convicted for first degree murder.
The reason this is so is because the death of Will would have happened during the commission of a felony, that is, kidnapping.
Hey doc! Just got to my mom's house to clean (she's getting older) and your vid just landed. She doesn't mind when I stream you from her TV. So I get to clean and listen to your content. Thanks again doc! Bless 🙏🙏🙏
Sweet.❤
@@michelleayres5608 I just love my mom. She's independent, but can't do everything on her own. That's what sons are for. Bless. 🤙🙏🤙🙏
And, where are the dear children in this family now. Very sad. Thank you Dr. Grande.💕🌵from Jean.
Summer’s parents took the children. This happened in my county.
I think Will is as Bill was. Like father like son. A contractor doing what contractors do best (head scratch). The victim led a threatened life but found relief in a readily available lover. The manner of abduction was laughable. Just to think they could get away with it is a measure of their intelligence and self importance.
The "spotless housekeeping everyday" and "perfectly prepared meals" were used to control his wife. They are unachievable goals.
Shocking matter great analysis.
Poor Summer. RIP.🌻 I hope those 3 children are in a loving home. 💕
Summer’s parents took them in.
It's unfortunate that Summer didn't wait a few years after high school and look around rather than getting locked in with Will.
''He unintentionally strangled her''.
Don't you just hate when that happens !
O M G! What is wrong with people?
fake Christians. Real demons
The whole family believed that they had a right to control Summer, and Grandma was trying to steal her children away from her.
Summer left because Will had threatened her life, and she wanted to keep her babies, as any mother would.
@@briskettacos "her babies"? tell me you're a feminist without telling me. They were his kids as well.
@@Arcturus549Tell me you don't know what the word "feminist" means without telling me.
And yes, the children were their children, not just hers.
The family was so focused on the commandment _Thou shall not commit adultery_ that they totally forgot about _Thou shall not murder_ - what a bunch of kooks!
Great coverage
Dr. Grande, checking YT for your latest video is one of the high points of my day. One case I'd be interested in seeing your take on is Gia Carangi; I think both her true story and her portrayal by Angelina Jolie could benefit from your insight
Someone cheated? Get a divorce. The moral response. You would think that Bible loving people would be familiar with the “1st Commandment.” Thou shalt not kill.
Sounds like that church was some kind of fundamentalist Mormon church. It seems the Patriarchal point of view and polygamist attributes are shared by both churches.
It's common in a lot of Abrahamic religions.

I’m always watching your videos. Randomly clicked on this one not connecting the dots that I was a psychiatric nurse who cared for Sandy when competency was being determined. Wild.
That poor girl... especially when she had three children that needed her. Such extreme hipocrites her in-laws were! It's unfathomable that they used the Church and Bible as a refuge for their evil deeds. I would hate to think where they're going.
It’s wild that Sandy got a plea deal when they had all the evidence against her. Woman living life on easy mode again.
Crazy!! I lived in Logan long before this happened.

Wow! I believe the word of God to be true. But you cant take that truth and twist it to mean something else.
I am so sorry for the poor gal. My concern is that they didnt seem to really talk about serious things before marriage.
I broke off with a narcissistic controlling guy because I didn't like what the future looked like with him. Make goid choices people.
Horrific,heartbreaking and completely unacceptable.poor Summer and her children
Another good show!!!! Thanks Dr Grande !!!!!!!
