I managed a store for a well known (west coast) chocolate candy shop and our district manager always pressed me to cut the night shift to one person. I always refused. Never would I let one person work alone at night. Safety means more than cutting your employee hours for profit. It’s crazy that people are willing to risk someone’s safety. I feel so sorry for all involved.
I was a gas station attendant for 5 years. I got robed right before close. Can confirm late night shifts more risky
💗
Good on you
My wife use to work a late shift at a Supermarket for a few years. I didn’t like her working so late and she parked behind the store. Luckily she was always in company of other male employees when she worked late. I wouldn’t allow her to work alone at any late night store, far too much risk potentially involved.
I worked nights at a convenience store. I had an incident that two men, two separate vehicles at two separate entrances, pulled up and waited until I was to leave. They just stared at me. It was very rural area. Through experience I knew that police wouldn’t get there for at least an hour. I phoned the manager. He drove into the park lot and the other guys got into their cars, I got safely into mine, locked the doors. I am convinced that had I just gone to my car, not phoned and waited, I definitely would not be alive today. One of the vehicles was a white Mercedes panel van, no windows in the back, extra tall ceiling. When the driver paid cash for his fuel, earlier, he had many $100.00 bills in his wallet. His hands shook violently as he handed me the money to pay god his fuel, earlier.
I’m so impressed by the 16 year old and her quick thinking. She no doubt saved other lives by escaping.
I was thinking the same thing; thank God she escaped.
Just like with the Butcher Baker, serial killers sometimes only get caught if someone manages to escape. She definitely saved many other lives.
I feel like this only speaks to his low intelligence and not her high intelligence.
Right?
I was more impressed by the customer who sat outside the store & made sure Jessica got to her vehicle safely the night before. There aren’t many people who would do that.
absolutely heartbreaking- Jessica had a 3 year old son and she worked hard to support him.
I’m sure she was a saint. She was probably cheating on her man.
So what?You are sick.Get help.
@@Freedom-Fighter1 Let that hurt go, hun
He kept pictures and named the file of his victim photos “Vics” what a psycho
That's how you know he thought he'd never get caught
IKR? And Viagra. 🤢
It does send chills up your spine thinking people like this walk among us.
Yes, this is really scary. Makes you wonder how many times many of us came close? We will never know.
I’m in NYC & have been watching my surroundings for decades due to those types of predators 🤬🤬🤬.
Heck, these psychopaths could even be here commenting on TH-cam.
...And thanks to some judge...the prison guard cousin, who SAW poor Jessica naked and bound....partied with his cuz on her, then helped dispose of her dead body at a landfill....only got FIVE years in prison, then probation?! THAT GUY IS A PSYCHO TOO!!! LOCK HIM UP...BETTER YET, BOTH SHOULD BE ZAPPED IN ELECTRIC CHAIR....DAY AFTER JURY REACHES GUILTY VERDICT!!
makes me hate things
Blowing a kiss to the family is infuriating 🤬
This is a very personal case for me. I live nearby where it happened, I know several of her relatives and I met her once or twice. Absolutely heartbreaking
Im sorry for your loss
The woman who got him to open his window so she could escape is a freakin badass. In a moment where your whole body is telling you youre in danger, she manages to think of a way out, even with a gun on her.
Insane. I would have just froze and done what he said.
That woman was actually a young teenager
@@chrissycamacho6942 right! I can’t believe a 16 year-old who was obviously terrified, had the presence of mind to think of that plan and execute it!
I was in a similar situation, I cried and begged. Showing that much emotion nearly cost me my life. Even psychopaths are conditioned by society to grant a polite request. Keep it neutral. forbid you find yourself in that situation
Yes 100% .
@@chrissycamacho6942 a young teenager with the mind of a wise woman. Obviously 😊
Thank goodness the 16 year old girl was able to escape. Thanks to her, Jeffrey was stopped. She was brave to do this.
Great video Dr Grande!!! Hope you are having a great day!!!
I read that there is a proposed Michigan bill, requested by Jessica’s parents, requiring gas stations and convenience stores that are open between the hours of 11pm and 5am to install and maintain a security camera system or to have at least two employees on shift during these hours. I hope that bill passes! In Florida where I live, security cameras are mandatory but two employees are only required if certain crimes have occurred at the location. Interesting.. I hadn’t really considered what safety precautions are actually mandatory at these late night businesses.
I completely agree! One would think that’s be the bare minimum off any employer who cares about their people.
Safety precautions should be necessary.
Here in the UK, after 11pm, you cannot enter a gas station. You get served through a hatch in the window.
@@stephenalex4345 I am struck by the amount of surveillance you have in the UK. From the ANPR system to even the private video from stores & homes. It certainly helps the police to piece together what happened in the run up to a crime.
It has been 8 years and that bill has not passed due to cost to businesses. It's a pretty good clue as to what we value and don't value.
@@ailleananaithnid2566 Absolutely. Surveillance here is very good. There should be no gas stations without surveillance in the US, and they should close the doors at night. Am I right in Saying Israel Keys abducted from a gas station too?
This is awful. I always thought my dad was over protective of me and my friends when I was in high school, but now I understand why. He was always drilled into our heads about watching our surrounding and the people around us and not to trust anyone we didn't know. He wasn't a cop or anything, but he'd spent a long time in the military before I was born and probably seen some stuff.
"I can't breathe, please open the window" Perfect example of appealing to the small amount of humanity an abductor might have, without being too emotional so they shut down. Or even playing the automatic response anyone has to a practical request. Brilliant!
I didn't maintain my composure in a captive situation, started crying and begging. Showing that much emotion was a terrible mistake. Nearly cost me my life. Smarter girl than I was
Even psychopaths are conditioned by society to grant a polite, reasonable request. Wish I knew that then
You were kidnapped?
@@miranda13c not anything that heroic. I was a junkie for years. I got held at gun point by a dealer paranoid with delusional thoughts. But it went on for hours.
The worst part was his hand shaking the whole time. I was sure I would die, even if that wasn't his intention.
Trying to reason with him from an emotional level was a stupid tactic that got him more angry than anything. Once I started crying his rage was next level
I'm so sorry that this happened to you. Thank God you are alive and lived to tell the tale. You survived and that is what counts. Don't be so hard on yourself. God bless you and protect you always.
@@AMM3. Every one who survives something like that & is also a recovering addict is double heroic in my eyes. Stay safe, strong & sober - you got this!
@@kellyfelly6645 Ah yes. Thank you. Just like this situation, upon lots of reflection I've realized the reason I survived everything is because something shocking or unexpected happened in life or death situations. I usually didn't intend to introduce those elements.
For example- in that situation the stress caused me to faint eventually. This guy was so frantic I may have already escaped he ran outside to look for me. Instead of thinking clearly, and just looking on the other side of the sofa, on the floor 🤣🙏 everyone freaks out when their plans get fucked. No matter how crazy or sane you may be.
I worked at a gas station and had a dude hang out the whole time until I closed every night. Eventually I saw that he started showing up at places I was at after work with my friends. I was 18 and it really shook me. I remember one night when he showed up the night after seeing him in public and trying to hide from him. He said I was really rude for that. I kept my finger on the panic button. Luckily he didn’t do anything. I told my bosses and they told the police and he never came back. My friends and family came every night to sit at his table that he always sat at while I closed. I am so grateful that I am alive to talk about it.
That poor girl! She should not have worked alone at any time, never mind at night. Looking sharp Dr G 🇬🇧
She should not have been put in a position where she had to work alone in a petrol station without CCTV.
@@simonw1313 Even a single man working alone is at risk.
@@b.f.2461 - For sure.
His pos cousin, a prison guard, should have gotten way more jail time than he got.
Absolutely right, he is just as creepy! Also, i hope they at least check out the rest of that family. It is possible that there is something seriously wrong all together.
He should be in jail for at least 30 years
You tell a story so well, not the easiest thing to do. A true talent. ✨
From picking the subject to deciding what to say about it and how to say it! Brilliant!💎
The cousin should have served much more time, especially as her body has never been found. Even if he tried to help the authorities find her, he did not even manage to do that.
Absolutely. It was awful the D.A. had to give this sweet deal for his testimony to insure conviction of Willis.
@@blueboats7530 the DA lied about the ballistics report on the stand for one. The whole thing is a cover up for criminal now ex cops that are involved including a now ex defective.
Overhaul of the PD commenced, county emails hacked and no one trusted anyone. And I’m talking about city officials including PD.
This case is much more insidious than people realise.
One more thing, a top, well respected forensic specialist was flying in to assist with something and also to review a very very specific location and was told not to by guess who - ex chief. Why would that be ask yourself.
Why would a chief stop a top forensic specialist from volunteering his time? That’s right, volunteering.
Yes, should have had a much longer jail sentence.
I'm from the area this happened. Thank you for being respectful and unbiased toward the victims. I know you try to make a lot of sarcastic jokes, but I'm glad this was free of many.
Same
This happened in the town over from where I grew up, and at the time this happened I was a night manager at a restaurant Willis used to frequent. After this happened and we found out it was him, a few of us ended up getting tasers and pepper spray to carry on us while leaving the store at night. I literally had conversations with the guy and had no clue. Crazy stuff
I live very close to the place where Jessica went missing. It was very sad and a lot of folks were worried that other young girls would go missing. I'm glad they caught her killer.
I was a manager of a Keva Juice (similar to Jamba Juice) when I was 17. Yeah, a little young, I know but while working there before I was promoted, I had had a few sketchy nights of closing by myself. So when I was promoted I made sure that no one closed alone. We closed at 9 on weekdays and 11 on Friday weekends. I had multiple arguments with the owners as they wanted to cut down on cost and they felt it was wasteful to have two people working. I eventually had to give in but on those days where only one person was working, I would go in and stay with them just to be safe. Even at that young age I knew how dangerous that could be and while I understand wanting to cut overhead cost, it always made me mad that these adults didn’t seem to care.
My mom helped get "Jessica's Law" passed. This happens right down the road from my house. They have cameras in there now. I hope they find her body. Rip nobody should have to through what she did
They did recently find her body. That's what I recall hearing in the past few months. I think that's why her case is being talked about again by social media and podcast people.
I promise you they haven't this literally happened in my neighborhood
I'm also from her town. She has not been found.
@@MaurauderGirl I'm originally from Ravenna, but now I live in Norton shores by shettler elementary
@@redoutdoors3320 I'm just by the border between Muskegon and Norton Shores
All petrol stations in Ireland are external window, plexi screen, and microphone system only after 10 p.m. I find it so odd that this system isn't implemented in every country.
Exactly. It's such an easy thing to install window hatches to keep employees safe. I'm sure it's not overly expensive.
Your dry sense of humor makes me laugh! Even in a world of sick, sadistic, perverted, psychos you make this channel a bright spot. Thanks for your work 😊
Its a scary world. We should all be taught to follow our instincts over everything else .
‘How did you end up with this sweet deal” Dr. Grande being his usual hysterical 😂self 😉💗
Not to mention the free food.
@@dianamarie5663 yes 👏 😂
Cases like this make me wonder how much the wives suspect or whether they’re completely oblivious
Bloom got off easily. If he'd spilled the beans someone else would be alive and another person wouldn't have had to go through the trauma of being kidnapped at gunpoint and risking her life to escape.
This happened in my hometown. For a long time there were yard signs and billboards that said "your silence killed".
Wasn't she still alive at when he saw her? If so, he could have saved her, but did nothing. In fact, he helped dispose of her body.
Good point. And that's if he told the whole truth and didn't participate further than he admitted.
@@USALibertarian i believe he did more than he said and he should be locked up...
@@helenab7390 That's why they should throw the book at him for what they can prove because that's the least he did.
This is in Norton Shores Michigan. A mile from my House. Such a sad story.
This is another tragedy that should have been avoided. It has troubled me for years to see young ladies working alone at night in 7-11 stores or gas station mini marts. It is such a red flag fraught with risk that it defies belief that it would even be allowed to take place. My guess is that the lady who waited until Jessica finished her shift that one night feels similarly, and kudos to her for her actions, though regrettably it didn’t prevent the ultimate tragedy. Why anyone would not think circumstances like these could end badly is the real head scratcher here, but it’s heart breaking that it took something like this to bring about a change in the law to prevent others from suffering the same fate. I don’t have a criminal mind, but I can think of many establishments in the vicinity of where I live that are setups for just this kind of crime to occur, and much more needs to be done in the interest of safety to avoid another Jessica happening.
I know everyone says this, but still... I love your dry wit, deadpan joke delivery! Brutally funny
Dr. Grande's on fire with content! I get to spend my day listening to a week's worth of videos while doing my housework/laundry. Makes my mundane Sunday duties easier to get excited about. 😜
So funny im doing the exact same on this rainy Sunday, chores and getting ready for the week with Dr. Grande. This case in particular caught my attention as I live in Michigan.
@@Simply-Steph Great minds! Dr. Grande and chores. Lol. Enjoy your day today, and I hope you have a blessed week! ❤️
Rebekah Bletsch’s case is also interesting and so very sad , as a female runner it just is so sad that your never safe as a women . You just don’t hear that many cases of men running and being abducted or killed .. not that it doesn’t happen
Ya. Not unless your a small boy. Very small chance for a grown man. Blessings!
You don’t hear of many women getting killed in wars either do you. Swings and roundabouts
Men are more likely to be murdered overall but I reckon women are more often the victim of sickos vs men being the victims of misplaced machismo/gang crimes etc
Probably because people male victims don't make heartbreaking headlines due to the average person's bias? Men are like 75-80% of homicide victims.
@bestbombshell
"Les disparus de Mourmelon"
A case in France in the 80's.
Army recruits (young men) get abducted , *aped and *illed by their instructor. A former foreign legion soldier (Pierre Chanal).
Retail, especially gas stations, now require in BC Canadian LAW that you not work alone. The owners (and large corporations that own gas stations in particular) have no excuse to have a single person working alone. When I ran my own moving company I never went out alone with a truck, after two sketchy experiences brought me into a 1) furniture theft ring, ;and 2) a drug collection problem. It's not worth your life. Jessica obviously was already getting really bad vibes from this guy. It's unfortunate she didn't call the owners, (or feel she had that as an option) to get them to come in and cover. BUT the owners did a DRIVE BY???? They will have to LIVE with this for the rest of their lives.
Here in the good ole U.S.A. is profits over people’s lives💔🤬.
If the owners really cared, they'd build partitions to keep the public from getting to the employees. They just don't want to spend the money to keep people safe, sad.
I don't think they care. If they did they wouldn't have had her working alone.
@@kevinmalone3210 They don't care else they wouldn't hire a young woman to work at night. They probably hired her becasue she would work for low wages. It's sickening.
Yes, they drove their lazy butts by. And he was at the back door of the station, closing the rear of the van. They were probably seeing the actual abduction, which occurred in a 7 minute window, or she would have been safe.
My favorite expression of Dr. Grande's is when he make one of his dry humor jokes and a hint of a smirk comes through.
It’s particularly distressing when people’s lives are at risk due to dangers in the workplace. Often people are aware of the risks but they can’t afford quitting their jobs.
Regarding risks in the workplace, during this pandemic, many workers lost their lives by simply going to work and doing the right thing.
Obviously the threats were different, yet in both cases it was a heartbreaking situation.
Thank you for the thoughtful analysis Dr. Grande.❤️
Rejane, I agree. I'm thankful for all the people who took risks during the pandemic, especially the medical personnel, who clearly have it so rough. It's a shame masking and vaccination has become so political or we would be through this already.
@@sato7320 Thank you Sato!
Indeed it’s very distressing. Hopefully things will get better now that many workplaces are making vaccinations mandatory.
I used to work very closely with a Speech Therapist who was about my age, had no underlying medical conditions and had a newborn at home. Well, he passed due to Covid, it was just very sad. Obviously many other workers died as well but he was probably the closest one I knew.😕
Rejane;the blood test came back positive. I'm pregnant. We are over the moon.
@@cottontails9003 Congratulations!!!💕
I am so happy for you Julianne!😃❤️🥰🤰🏻
You covered it! I requested this one. Dr. Grande you are the best. Great analysis as always.
I live about 40 minutes from that gas station and was on Sheridan Rd a week or so ago. It is chilling to think I could’ve drove past her body. So sad! And everyone around here hates Jeffery Willis. When this case was plastered on the news it was all anybody would talk about-how evil he is. Thanks for the video. You rock!
I love that you did this case! I was absolutely obsessed with this case.
I have so many peripheral connections to this case. Muskegon is my hometown, and it’s fairly small - 30,000.
I met Jeff Willis several years before this. Awkward and creepy! Yes!!
Rebekah Bletsch is the wife of a third cousin.
His house on Sheridan (also one block from an elementary school - not anymore). That was my neighbourhood.
The manager of the store is the daughter of a former coworker and friend.
A cousin of mine was a coworker of his.
A friend’s husband was the prosecutor.
Very good assessment! I love your shows, so, so much..
I just want to point out 2 things. The town Jessica was Norton Shores, not North Shores.
Jessica’s last name is pronounced, ‘hearing-ga’.
Thank you for all your wonderful shows.
Love from Canada!
Also Jessica Heeringa’s body still has not been found. :-(
This is so scary. Thank you, Doctor Grande, for covering it.
I'm gonna give a like to this video. Just a quick reminder: I'm not diagnosing anybody here, just speculating on what could be happening with the awesome quality of this channel... 😉 Greetings from France !
Luckily he wasn’t very smart. Lost the battery cover? Toss it and buy a new one. Holding onto the gun, pick up the casings. Really, keeping images on your computer? Telling and showing your cousin? Duh! All he needed was the police to get a whiff of him and he convicted himself. If we can be grateful for one thing in this terrible tragedy, it’s that a lot of the people who commit these crimes are too narcissistic to realize they aren’t smart enough to pull it off long term.
Sometimes they actually have a subconscious desire to be caught. Usually for the attention and validation or in rare cases some kind of remorse or guilt.
He was found out because he let a victim escape years later. They had nothing on him at the time other than owning a similar vehicle. As far as his cousin goes, it seems pretty clear he was in on it with him and participated in whatever heinous stuff they did to Jessica before killing her and dumping her body.
It was nice to hear your coverage of this story. I am in SW Michigan and this case has been talked about a lot. I never knew of the battery cover that linked him to the gas station. It's sad that they have never been able to find Jessica so she could have a proper burial.
Hello from another local. I hope they find her someday, but I'm not overly optimistic, unfortunately.
Nice analysis Dr. Grande. This was a case very close to us. Law enforcement never stopped working this case, though sadly her body was never found. You usually get the details correct, just a few small things: Her name is pronounced Hear-inga, accent on the first syllable. The case occurred in Norton Shores, Michigan on the west coast of the state, on Lake Michigan. (North Shores is a town on the east coast, on Lake Erie.) And despite years of effort by her family and others to pass Jessica's Law, it has not yet passed the legislature primarily due to small businesses' cost concerns.
Thank you for the follow-up information.
I’m glad he can’t make it out of prison. Thank you doctor Todd Grande for sharing this case 🫀🤍
Jessica’s reaction to the guy in the store that night was primal. She should have sensed the danger. Some women don’t recognize it or ignore it and I regret that. Thanks for your input and best to you on a gloomy and rainy Sunday!
These types aren't that rare. She may have had a relative, boss, church elder, neighbor, or teacher who gave off similar vibes. People from rough and dysfunctional backgrounds can get desensitized to threats because there are so many, that if they assumed their life was in danger constantly they couldn't function.
@@evelynwaugh4053 Thanks for your comments. This story made the hair on my neck tingle.
She did sense the danger. What could she do about it? The rent doesn't pay itself and petrol station owners don't adequately staff shifts or install CCTV unless they are forced to by the state.
@@simonw1313 so true.... this economy has some people in a position close to slavery, because they have no other options.
@@simonw1313 So true. The State of Michigan still hasn't passed The Jessica Act all these years later b/c small businesses tell the legislators it's too much a cost to bear. I conclude they are more comfortable sacrificing the safety of their minimum wage employees.
Dr. Grande, those plants are certainly "on the edge" today!
Why would any business have their employee's working alone? What a tragic case!
SUGGESTION FOR VIDEO TOPIC:
Dr. Grande, would you please consider doing a video on missing person Michele Harris? She was a mom living in upstate NY and going through a divorce when she went missing on the evening of Sep 11, 2001. It’s been suggested that someone may have decided to take advantage of the fact that many police / authorities were busy during the chaos of the 9/11 attacks in NY that day; police probably had significantly fewer resources to investigate potential foul play if it happened in the same state and on the same day as 9/11. Thanks!
I've worked in corrections for a long time, and I cracked up at your assessment of the thought process of the cousin.
I am from Grand Rapids, MI, and when this story came out, it just broke my heart. She had a three year old little boy who missed his mom very much while she was missing with no answers.
I worked at a gas station right around the corner from where this happened. We were not allowed to be alone on any shift. Their gas station was so poorly managed, so horrible that this happened.
Yes, some responsibility should fall back on management/owners
Hey Dr. Grande! Working a double shift waiting tables, so I'm watching you on my break. So thank you! 😁
The rational side of me knew the plants should not fall, but I kept looking to make sure anyway. Strange how those caused such a tangent.
A young girl should NEVER work alone anywhere at any time. In fact, no one should work alone. Another cautionary tale about trusting your gut. If something doesn't feel right, it's not. Thanks Dr. G. I was just in Norton Shores. Chilling.
I see woman of all ages alone all the time and they're fine.
I like to take walks in a local forrest and I see fellow woman hikers alone all the time.
The Dalai Lama suggests we should spend time alone everyday.🙏🧘♂️🧘♀️🌅💜
@@erikparent8176 I appreciate your thoughts on this and don’t disagree with you at all about daily alone time. I need mine in fairly large quantities. I’m talking about serving a steady flow of strangers at set times where a few unsavory people might take advantage of knowing a person’s schedule and the fact that he or she is a sitting duck.
I actually don’t think it’s a good idea for a woman to be alone in a forest either. I truly wish I felt differently but based on many instances of women being hurt or killed, I would never be alone. I’d at least have a large dog with me. In a perfect world, everyone would be safe at all times, but sadly it’s just not that way, and I believe we should choose the safest circumstances if we can. I’m in favor of the buddy system, being a small female myself! Have a great week! 😊 💕
I'm 47 days clean today. I've been watching a lot of your videos, Doc & they've really helped me get through the tough moments when I get a craving or start feeling myself getting into a negative mindset as I've really been trying stay in a zone of positivity & not letting little things aggravate me because I used to hyper focus on that negativity and let it seep into every aspect of my day. If I stubbed my toe it was because of the negativity and I then I would get angry and curse loudly and because I'm clean now and a lot of the internal insanity is gone I'm realizing that one moment does not define me. I love knowing that if my day was kinda crappy that I can go to sleep and wake up to a new day. I always try to focus on positivity because my girlfriend of 7 years now, just had out 7yr anniversary September 22nd, is very much an empath and my negativity could really cause her to begin to stress and she's under enough stress because of her job that treats her like crap but she still works doubles and split shifts because her manager can't properly staff the place. Anyway, just wanted to thank you for doing these videos Doc. I always enjoy your thoughts and analysis of the subject and situation at the end. Stay awesome and frosty Doc and much love to all the folks in the comment section. You all seem like tremendous people and I hope I get to know some of you thru our comments on the Doc's videos. Once again;
Stay Awesome and Frosty my friends!
Well done on your recovery journey! Wishing you a great day, and many more in the future x
stay strong, pray to have your higher power or god help remove the cravings, it gets easier with time, 19 yrs clean here___you can do it
@yaskween Your lack of understanding of somethng does not make it weird. Your negativity is irrelevant, but maybe my reply will give you some of the attention you crave.
I didn't even know you had a Podcast! I LOVE Podcasts! Looks like I'm binging content today before I gotta get to tidying up and doing a few things around the house so when my girlfriend gets home from work she can see that I took care of it so housework wouldn't be the first thing she's reminded of after a long day at work. I'm so lucky to have her in my life and I'm so happy she feels the same.
Why do I get just the smallest sense of doubt about this post? Seems too good to be true! If it is true - good for you! If you're pulling our leg begone!
My fiance cleaned the house for me on Sunday. Monday was my birthday which is usually when I do all the big cleaning but there's two days a year I refuse to do housework, my birthday and mother's day. Good on you for taking some burden off your girl, its very thoughtful and im sure she appreciates it even if it's just washing a few dishes and vacuuming.
Blessings you two 💞
Appreciate the video. I live an hour from where this happened. Never knew about the missing battery cover. Scary stuff.
One correction, it’s Norton Shores not North Shores.
Your analysis was concise and the prison guards dialogue at the end was amusing.
I never knew the outcome of her case- thanks Doc!
analyze the people who say FIRST
Hahahaha :D
Yes yes, analize them all.
First
F-ck the analysis. Just execute them.
@@simonw1313 A popular sentiment these days.
THANK YOU DR. GRANDE for NOT mentioning what the 16yo girl was wearing or what she had or had not consumed at the party after she left it. THANK YOU.
what
@@meanmole3212 they are saying thank you for not victim blaming.
@@Throatzillaaa what
The epitome of crazy, a woman working in a convenience store alone. It's like hanging out a sign "come get me, I'm defenseless". The owner of the store should be arrested for irresponsible hiring or they should all be forced to put up those bullet proof clear partitions. Just another senseless death. Thanks for sharing.
On a lighter note, I had to laugh when you said the line "How did you end up with this sweet deal?" 😅😂
Fascinating case analysis. It’s very disheartening such things occur and people willingly help the wrong side at times.
This story was so heartbreaking. This happened in in my state. I truly don't know how far from my home it happened. I'm guessing about an hour or so but it was all over the news.
I hope Jessica's family gets the justice they deserve. I'm glad they got Jessica's Law passed though so hopefully something like this can be avoided in the future
That monster also asked to be removed from the court when the families of the victims spoke! So he was removed! He did get to hear the family members on repeat on his ride to prison!
It’s a scary world out there Dr. Grande. We can only pray that all the cameras out there now will deter some and help catch all the rest
George Orwell would approve of this comment.
@niles stone master ken approves of this message
If I was part of the family for Miss Heeringa I would sue the owners. It is just beyond me that these stores employ women to work at night and have no panic buttons, security measures of any type.?
"His dream of life in prison" 🤣 I love how Dr. G can bring needed comic relief to upsetting subjects. I could never do prison time. Those plastic shoes they wear are hideous 🩴🩴
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge
The owner of the shop drove by, seeing someone having trouble with closing the backdoor of the car?
Driving by and not checking how your employer( who is working alone during the late night shift ) is doing is weird.
What an awfull case.
My respect to his last victim, i hope that she has no ptsd from her experience.
A true crime story I haven't heard! You are a super hero Dr. G! 💜🌵
Absolutely terrifying story.
I work the night shift at a beer store in my sleepy little beach town. This story gives me the creepiest vibes. I never get afraid to shut down the lights and set the alarm but tonight it’s going to be different. I will have my boyfriend meet me about 15mins before closing. Thanks for posting this video
Please do a video on the state of our country… Thats the most important subject… Please and thank you
Love your channel. I learn something new every time you post! 💙💜💙
Dr Grande I just wanted to ad . I believe the cousin is more responsible for that woman's death. All he needed to do was ring the police. If he had both women could still be alive. This security guard in my opinion is a waste of place. He's the one that should also be serving a life sentence. Thank you Dr Grande.
It’s not what you know it’s what you can prove puta
Give the podcast a chance. If you like Dr Grande, you'll get several hours of good listening.

My ADD keeps my love to this short, compact format Dr Grande 😂
However, if you have an attention span of more than 15 minutes I bet it amazing! Lol
@@parasitesundinism you just listed the perfect mix for a good podcast.
Captain Courageous, at first glance I thought your icon was Donald Trump
Podcast is very calming and packed with wisdom from 3 gentlemen
From personal experience secondary location ends up with enough brutality to kill you or maim you. Scream, fight you’d rather die where you stand .
Good morning Dr.Grande and subscribers.
it's only 9:40 here, and coffee and appreciating Dr. grande hard work.
Thank you.
Have a blessed day.
One of my huge pet peeves...fast food places and convenience stores that are too damn cheap ass to pay w or 3 people on shifts (especially night shifts). So unsafe to have only 1 person present. It's very obvious to anyone that walks in with evil intent, to tell they are there alone.😞🤷
I believe it's important to recognize that, while the odds favor the ordinary daily occurrences, people like Willis and Bloom exist, and they live among us. We can ill afford to ignore this, and must become aware of what is happening in our surroundings.
While those like Willis prefer lone victims, there are those that have little regard for that. If anyone follows true crime channels, they know that violent crimes occur in businesses with 3,4, or more people working.
It seems that Ms. Heeringa had reason to mistrust her future abductor yet made no effort to convey this to anyone. That can no longer be acceptable. If you believe someone at your place of work is a problem, speak to someone about it.
Good on the customer for looking out for Jessica the night before. She couldn't save her in the end, but she stepped up when she could.
Wayne Couzens a cop murdered then later confessed to the murder of SARAH EVERARD IN THE UK !
Will You please evaluate him he is in for LIFE starting this week ! 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Great comments on criminals and prison, thorough case analysis. Thanks Dr G😊💜💜
LOL. I loved the convo between prison guard and prisoners..."sweet deal, you get to live here." LOL
Dr. Grande, you really should do a deep dive on Kevin Bloom, it comes across as a bizarre case of inverted Stockholm Syndrome, the captor identifies with the prisoners...
I live about 30 minutes from where she was kidnapped. Her dutch last name is most likely pronounced "hair-ing-ga." Very sad case. Could do a profile of David Duyst. That was a messed up case that hit close to home.
My goodness the comment section every time someone brings up a case I’ve never heard of and I’m sadly sucked in .. that is a interesting case so messed up !
I followed this case too, being close to it. It was haunting She was 5'1"" and 110 lbs. No match for a 300 lb nut job. About the Dutch names...if double ee, it's pronounced hear. If single e, double r, it's pronounced hair.
Me too and my sister in law lived three miles from where the jogger was shot in the head..
Thank you for the screen shot of the Bella Grande podcast....a visual person here (myself) is appreciative lol 🧁❤️
Your plants are living on the edge….
Great analysis 🙂as always.
Enjoy your videos a lot. This happens to be my lifelong hometown until just a few years ago. Heads up, its Norton Shores, not North Shore. Just a minor correction for your otherwise usually excellent videos. Keep 'em coming.
I always thought this case was so unsettling. Just being taken like that from your job! Very scary thought. Thankfully he was so disorganized that they were able to catch him before he hurt anyone else! Kudos to the teenager that managed to escape! She undoubtedly helped to save lives of further potential victims! Thank you for your analysis Dr Grande!💖💖
A petite young girl working all alone late at night in an unpopulated area at a business with no CCTV? Practically an open invitation to sick assholes like Willis. A major gas station chain thinks it's too costly for CCTV though so obviously that takes precedence over even the most basic of worker safety measures. America. What a country.
🙏 THANK YOU ☺️❤️ Love 💗 the shirt
Hi Dr. Grande, Yes, I believe that prison guard was also thinking that he could get those three square meals everyday as well. What a deal! Wow. Sad story. It’s sad they didn’t have someone working with her. And bad that they didn’t have cameras up. Enjoyed the video Dr. Grande.
❤️💜💚
According to the FBI, they figure there are at least 25-50 serial killers active in the U.S.
Some statistics say the average person will walk past 36 murderers (not necessarily serial) during the average lifespan.
Be like that 16 year old who managed to escape everyone. Stay calm, and think fast.
What's worse, think about how many serial farters are roaming the stores in search of victims!
All I can say is from their a** to your nose!
LOOKOUT! 🌬👃😳🥴 👀
"helping inmates" made me think of joyce mitchell. if you can give us a double shot of dr grande vids today, can joyce mitchell be next please doc? (you more than likely already covered her. but im not sure)
He actually hasn’t made a video on her yet and it would be a great choice!
@@miranda13c yesssss. I'm surprised he hasn't covered her yet
A family friend's daughter, late night 7-11 cashier, was kidnapped and murdered several years ago. I don't know if it is a Federal law, but it should be, late night cashiers/clerks must ALWAYS have a partner and video cameras installed in and out. Those two basic improvements save lives. Our poorest paid are often the least protected by their employers. Thank you for your analysis. Have a good day and take a nap.
This happened in my home town. I drive past this gas station every day. Never really leaves your mind.
Doc, you're awesome. Thank you for the video.
As always great analysis from Dr. grande
