Anyone else see the irony that the man he hired to help murder a man who injured him in a drunk driving incident injured 2 other people in a drunk driving incident when he was caught?
My eyesight would have to be pretty poor not to see that irony.
I thought that was quite a twist
No
nah that seems unrelated
Not the definition of irony
18 months..such a joke. Gotta hold DUIs more accountable
If Wright's punishment had actually fit the crime, there probably would not need to be any revenge. 18 months jail for this is a disgrace.
Bob Manner was a drug dealer. He was in no moral position to take Ray Wright's life.
That’s kinda what I thought.
Absolutely correct.
While the sentence should have been longer 10-15 years. I believe work release would have been a better punishment. Ray would have been required to be either at work or in jail. That way 100% of his wages should have gone into repaying the victims. After jail if the judgement is not fully paid wages should have been garnished. Every state has different laws my state allows 25% of wages to be garnished as long as the person is above the poverty line.
Making a man sit in jail and be unproductive helps no one. This would not apply to violent crimes they should not get that benefit.
@@davidmc8475Agreed! I certainly understand Robert's fury though he took things too far. Also If Ray had actually beeyworking the Steps in AA he would have been eager to pay Robert back, so his actions of indifference to Roberts pain kinda shows he wasn't taking recovery seriously. Making amends is one of the most important steps in the program.
18 months is not long enough when the victim has to live with it for the rest of their lives.
and Ray got to live his life as normal, even had a big pickup , which in my opinion he should have lost his license for life.
Ray was probably paying the judge instead of the people he injured.
doesn't really matter how long he was in jail though
the guy he hit was a felon and meth dealer
probably no amount of jail time would satisfy his desire for revenge
@@howard5992 Yeah that's on the judge. But if he blew-off paying the civil penalty like Dr. Grande said, that would make a guy angry. But it's not even close to being an excuse for murder, of course.
@@jaymike3302
This guy should have had a payment plan in place - getting out of jail he is able to work to pay restitution. It would have been an insurance policy in this case. You aren't getting knocked off if you are paying back your debt.
Murder someone and then TELL people about it? Criminals are so dumb.
that's why so many are caught.
do you feel superior about yourself for saying that?
@@General_AlekGod, yes.
😂@@General_Alek
Guilt's a harsh mistress.
Dr. Grande's "couldn't regulate his intake of alcohol" is my favorite description of alcoholism and I am adding it to my verbiage.
It's my favorite too, and I'm an expert alcoholic. I've always been glad my Mom introduced me to his channel. It never disappoints.
@@chris55529 Hope you get better man! From a fellow "could not regulator" of different substances...
Perhaps Ray Wright would've lived a longer life had he received a sentence more befitting the crime he committed and made efforts to pay the paltry restitution he owed.
But he didn't, in which case justice was finally served.
@MrTimnaik So you guys are justifying murder?
@@CatsClaw44I would have been in favor of jury nullification in this case.
There are competing theories of the function of governmental administration of the justice system system, but clearly one very important function is to provide an alternative to private vengeance. When the public system fails to provide a proper measure of remedy for the harm done it invites the self-help alternative.
Accurate comment.
In a lot of instances, the government does this on purpose and purposely picks and chooses when and to whom to give short or long sentences. They let a lot of violent offenders go because they know they'll go back to certain communities to continue to wreak havoc but then will keep someone imprisoned for not being able to afford bail for allegedly stealing a backpack.
An alternative to the law? A legal one? Might be difficult to find something…..
This man was not righteous, he was *wrongteous*
How can you be sure he's not Lefteous?
Even bad guys can be victim of a dude driving under DUI.
IMO Ray was trully repentent but Robert was a limited bully.
@@KoozomecRay seemed to have gotten his act together and was making progress (aside from not making the payments). I feel bad about the way things ended up for him.
There's no such word; you made it up! 😂
@@paulforder591 good job! You got the joke! Better late than never
So many tragedies & only one Dr. Grande to speculate about them. Have a great weekend Dr. Grande.
“His drinking behavior dominated his life.” - I know so many ppl that are like this. 😕
Synopsis: A doctor's deep dive describes despicable deeds during drunk driving debacle.
No noo nidn't
Dr. Grande rocks 🤘
lol he definitely likes his alliteration
@@JustMe-fo4ev As do I! Each new case has me hoping for them. My comment was a humble homage to his accomplished alliterative abilities 😄
@@sansnom508You’re a true and honorable disciple. You made me laugh 😊
The ultimate question is "what is justice?" What should a person do if they feel that the legal system has failed them? Rely on some divine judgement or karma to set things right? Suffer in silence and live in stoic inaction? What would you do?
Justice would seem a hollow word when crims who don't care about those they have hurt but squeal for justice when they get hurt.
Eye for an eye?
Or forgive?
The meek shall inherit the earth,
just not the mineral rights...
@@jmpsthrufyre I wonder if the Christians who do choose to forgive (not all will) are able to do so because they are confident that God will send the evil ones to burn in hell for eternity. I've seen countless posts rejoicing in the presumed ultimate fate of various criminals, and I've been attacked for pointing out that God may choose to forgive the criminal, if s/he repents, so be prepared to meet the former criminal in heaven.
@@david-dj8or It often seems as if the criminal system in the US grants more rights to the offenders than to their victims. Hollow indeed.
@victoriajohnson4420
Christians forgive because Jesus instructs us to, no matter what happens to that person.
As The Lord's Prayer says, "Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us."
No forgiveness without first forgiving others
Light sentences for DUIIs are a chronic problem.
Not in some states!
Just 18 months!!! How is that justice???
It doesn't excuse premeditated murder. Period.
@@Bearwithme560it does for me.
Could you look at a similar situation of David Barajas from Texas, he was found not guilty of shooting a man the same night the drunk driver killed his sons. While he did confess a couple months afterwards, he recanted and no one saw him shoot the driver nor did anyone find the gun.
Thank you for bringing that one up. That's such a horrible situation.
Gives an impression of justice 🤫
Re payment. I have a guy who owes me $8k, small beans to some but not to me. He has been arrested more than once for running an elaborate scam to fuel his gambling addiction, is on probation and is supposed to be paying me back by court order. I’ve received one very small payment when he was threatened with jail. I keep in touch with his PO but ultimately only the court can keep him to his obligation but they seem, in this case at least, to be caring challenged. He will game the system just enough to stay out of jail and not an ounce more until his probation expires and he walks away having paid maybe $100. Some people! It pays to steal in America , as long as you do it just right.
It's looking that way.
I had a guy, break in while I was sleeping, and steal a locked 5500.00 motorcycle out of a shed not 25 feet from my bedroom.
Amazingly an off duty cop chased him down as he was riding my bike, he had painted it purple, then black over the purple.
They asked what was the damage worth he had done to my bike. I said 1200.00.
Damned if they didnt pay me back 100.00 at a time from some restitution fund.
The thief was some homeless heroin addict who was never going to pay anyone for anything.
@@bradsanders6954 sheesh. Sorry that happened, glad you at least got a trickle of money. But we all know $100 a month is very different from $1200 cash.
Another sad & terrible case of people who have little control over their behaviors or remorse. Great analysis again. Thanks Dr G😊💙🧡
During their magical time together!
I love the way you don’t diagnose anyone in this video, just speculating what COULD be happening in a situation like this.
Dr. Grande delivers death by alliteration.
I'm delighted by the doctor's daily diligence!
Dr. Grande, I was curious of you could cover the jerry sandusky/ second mile camp scandal. I went to that camp and im curious how it was possible a man could start a whole organization just to prey on children.
Almost 500,000 kids go missing each year. P3dos get substantially less jail time than most non violent criminals. So answer you question “how was it possible a man could start a whole organization just to prey on children?” I’ll tell you but you wont like it. Politicians. Sandusky was close to a guy named Tom Corbett who was governor of PA at the time. Before that he was Attorney General and failed to investigated Sandusky in a timely manner. If you look up politicians with SA on their record, accused or otherwise, the number will disturb you. And none of us do anything about this problem bcuz were too busy fighting Liberals vs Conservatives smh. If ppl really knew what goes on in the highest of society(politicians and wealthy elites) there would be blood in the streets! But like I said were too busy fighting each other and public schools are too dumbed down for anything to change sadly ☹️
Jimmy Saville did the exact same thing. Got away with it too.
@@jamesscott2627 Thomas Hamilton was falsely accused but the community payed for it.
It’s a typical republican ploy. Just look at Jim Jordan. The trick is that they continually criticize that which they actually are.
@@jamesscott2627Larry Nassar is a lot like Saville. They both pursued a career path that gave them access and also served as cover.
DR. GRANDE's alliteration is astonishiingly and absolutely amazing. 😂
As always in any analysis.
He forgot to tie in Democrats.
I noticed a lot of negative descriptive words begin with the letter D a few years ago.
His condition alliteritis is getting worse. The poor man needs help!
Love your work, but I'm not so sure about that ADA ad.
thats my new pick up line, “safety challenged” is my middle name! haha great zingers as always!
He has me dying laughing when he describes strippers job as “ worked as a clothing challenged dancer”
Rio Linda. Where you tell if someone is rich. They have 2 cars up on blocks in the driveway. RIP Rush.
Surely, You have been to Palermo, south of Oroville. Palermo is special, some parts are scary as hell.
Yeah Oroville is a freak show, Palermo is the catch all for freaks that cant make it in Oroville.
Ah, I’m not the only one who thinks of Rush when Rio Linda is mentioned!
@@markiangooleyYeah,brought back some warm memories of him saying that!
Robert didn't get a happy ending from that massage.

Dr G - you might be interested in covering the case of Teekah Lewis, a little girl who was kidnapped from a bowling alley and never found. An investigator reviewed the case and found a witness description police ignored. It has many of the elements of a case you cover.
Just listened to this on 48 hrs
What a debacle that version was😮
Same, I watched it last night and it was ridiculous. They tried to make Wright sound like a saint. I'm not saying he deserved a horrible death for one awful mistake, but no one seemed to want to admit that Wright did a horrible thing, got away with a light punishment, and made very little effort to pay restitution to his victims. Also, his daughter's vocal fry on that episode drove me up the wall.
Rough day!! I’m so thankful I have Dr.Grande to watch!! Thank you Dr!!!
A case where the courts caused more harm than good. That said I am NOT condoning what Robert did.
The court made no real attempt to get justice for Robert and his wife.
It’s something that Victor Gray turned around and committed the same offense that Ray Wright did that started all this.
It would be insane if one of the people Gray injured in his own drunken, high-speed crash takes a hit out for him… then his own incompetent murderer is drunk behind the wheel …crashes into innocent victims… so on, and so forth….
I think it’s interesting that there’s a link for further resources for Covid but not addiction or alcoholism
perhaps the link is suggested by the new sponsor
@@GGiblet yes I get that. It’s just an observation with some sarcasm and humor
Covid is way more deadly. Don't even compare addiction or alcoholism to covid. You are clearly an anti-vaxer. Go vote for trump
@@danielwggudan2 this whole thing has made me kind of wish he had links for those resources when the videos touch on the subject of addiction or whatever, it does make sense
There should be stricter fines and jail time for people getting DWI's especially when someone is seriously hurt.
There are in many states!!
Can you analyze David Barajas? He was acquitted of slaying a DUI suspect shortly after the driver hit David's car ending the lives of David's 2 sons. It was alleged the father left the scene to retrieve the firearm.
I'm scratching my head, trying to work out how Victor could be so stupid as to drive around with those stolen number plates on his vehicle with all that evidence inside it and drive while drunk!!!
Oh Shit Dr GRANDE done sold out BIG time!💉😅
How GRANDE was that ADA Sponsorship 😂
Saw this yesterday and then today on 48 Hours. I prefer your version, spoken impartially and sincerely ❤
This topic looks fascinating! ❤ Thanks for bringing us so many informative stories, Grande.❤ We always look forward to your videos. ❤
This is strange. I watched a movie yesterday called, “Hit and Run “, it had the same storyline. Drunk woman hits some guy walking down a dark country road. She thinks she killed him, so she drags him into the woods and buries him. However, he wasn’t dead. He came to, dug himself out of the ground and went looking for the person who hit him. The movie was as crazy as this story.
I was born in Rio Linda and grew up in North Sacramento.
Always interesting
Thank you❤
Loma Rica can be nice this time of year. Lower Honcut also.
@@bradsanders6954
Not sure what your talking about.
I said North Sacramento.
Really it was Del Paso Heights
Do you know a guy named Hondo Maroulis? He lives there, too, in North Sacramento.
Decent Dissection! A Dispassionate, Discerning Diagnosis.👍
I'm delighted by the doctor's daily diligence.
Dubious, doublespeak distraction and destruction in this case.
Great job Dr.Grande!! It’s sad how they don’t take dui’s seriously!!
I was wondering if you'd cover this one! I live in the next town over from Rocklin, and remember hearing a lot about this case. Thanks, Dr. Grande!
Another great vid!
Definitely dig the dialog dude. 😂
Hi Dr. Grande, excellent analysis. As always I learn something new from your videos.
The alliterations are always fire 🔥
Great case choice and annalysis
Wow. That's a wild one. I can't imagine. Thank you again.
Where is Robert's wife in all this? I'm so curious about how she feels about what happened.
Robert Manor is a violent drug dealer. No matter what Ray Wright did, "Bob" had no right to do what he did to him.
I would suspect that this isn't the first time he thought he was justified in imposing his own brand of justice on others.
I found this case confusing
So Robert was injured by Ray in a DUI offence
And how does Victor play into it?
And Robert was seeing his girlfriend but was also married??
I think Robert hired Victor to bump Ray off. Victor had a letter written to "Bob", saying he'd done the deed and wanted paying. I guess Victor knew Katie too - the woman that lived opposite Ray.
At the time of the DUI Robert was married. So he was either seperated at the time of Tessa the masseuse, or she was an affair. Hope this help 😊
I too was confused. Had to listen to the video twice, and still feel a bit confused because of the two women and Victor.
Without your analysis Dr Grande, I could not have understood any of this case.
Too many characters going in too many directions.
Thanks Doc.
My dad was killed by a drunk driver & the same drunk driver killed a child drunk driving a year before that . The drunk driver didnt receive a day in jail on either crime 💔💔
Damned good dissection of the details, Doc.
Dr. Grande, please explain how early prodromal signs of Schizophrenia spectrum disorders can manifest in childhood and how their signs and symptoms overlap w/ Autistic diagnoses such as Asperger's syndrome
The good doctor never fails to bring humor to tragic narratives.
More twists than a pretzel!
For what ?? 🌚
What a delightfully alliterative summary of events.
Delightfully delivered drama, dear doctor!
I can't believe you did an ad for Covid 19.
ikr 🥴🤑
The last 3 minutes of this presentation really hits home.
Divine deed, Doc.
Definitely a decent diagnosis Dr. Grande!
Can you please cover the case of Vitaly Kaloyev and Peter Nielsen?
Dr. Grande with the immaculate alliteration in the synopsis lol
the alliteration at the end is delightful.
Ok he got his revenge but now he’s in prison for the rest of his and still in physical pain so what did he really gain?
14:40 Your d word cadenza at the end brought a smile to my face about this terrible tale of two toxic tornadoes
Two wrongs don't make a right, but two writes made the first airplane so that's gotta count for something
All hail the King of Alteration. As a life long poet, I've never met your equal, sir. Cheers.
Well told. This channel is a safe mind analgesic, quite addictive without negative outcomes!
Easily the most impressive use of alliteration I've ever seen!
It's amazing how a few drinks can bring people together.
Another awesome alliterative analysis! 8-D
My favorite Dr. Grande videos end in absolutely amazing, even atrocious, alliteration.
Thanks for the upload while I was out getting some Chinese New Year 2024 long-life noodles, Dr. Grande! Your true fans love your humor and sarcasm. February 9 is National Pizza Day, Bagel Day, Toothache Day, Word Nerd Day (a day for me?), Stop Bullying Day, Read In The Bathtub Day, Chocolate Day (gotta have some Almond Roca buttercrunch chocolate later!), National Pizza Pie Day, and the Feast of Apollo.
Everyday is pizza day!
@@discospiders *EVERY DAY
My husband's dad was killed by a drunk driver. The 22 year old boy only got 5 years and my husbands mother and brothers are alcoholics
That is sad twice over (the accident and the dependence on alcohol).
From my experience, most heavy drinkers / frequent drinkers will usually also drive after drinking. Some know not to drive when deeply impaired but alcohol reduces good judgement.
I am not sure if I think five years is a short time though. It depends partly on the history of the driver. Did they have a prior history of DUI ? If so I would want a stricter punishment. Did they run a stop sign or a red light or were they also driving recklessly ? The specific matter to some degree.
Just some thoughts.
@@howard5992 they were definitely being reckless. He hit 5 cars leaving Applebee's and was extremely over served at the restaurant
Crazy case, car crashes callousness, cravings causing carceration. Cracking critical analysis Dr G.
Thanks!
Dr. Grande, I could listen to you all day. And your alliteration! Do you write this yourself?
Could you please review the Harmony Montgomery case?
Oh nah, I’m speculating AND diagnosing on this one.
Wow, I lived in Rio Linda during that time, and never heard about this case! 😳
Great story.
All-American alliteration, Amigo.
The fact that dr Todd grande is always right is great 👍 but when he ended his analysis with every word starting with the letter D was too funny 😂😂😂
Classic ending
This episode was brought to you by the letter ‘D’! If only Dr. Todd had included a reference to ‘a darling daughter, Dora’. 😂😂
I except more alliteration in the ad reads
Rio Linda, also known as the meth capital of California. I wonder if drugs also played a role in this crime.
No, there are way too many competitors for that title. If you think RL is bad, check out San Bernardino or Stockton. Honorable mentions go to Olivehurst, Oroville and Palermo.
Awesome Alliteration Doc! ❤ Dddddddddd...
Alliteration on point my guy
Delightful duologue Doctor 😂
Whole lot of claims and this and that and what have you, without a body..............what did they do run him thru a snowblower?
(Nod to Fargo)
A lot of people who are nearly killed by drunk drivers want revenge, who wouldn't?
Some are on their 3rd DUI or 4th so they drive with no license. What ever it takes to be out on the road.
A frikken high speed chase, can end any number of ways, bystanders can get killed, who knows?
Over a reg sticker initially.
Have you done a video on the murder of Gannon Stauch by his stepmother Leticia Stauch?
She pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity and claimed that she had dissociative identity disorder due to childhood sexual abuse.
Somehow you make listening to horrific crimes calming.
Thank you!
Dr. Grande, please do an analysis on Wil Wheaton's reaction to Larry David tussling with Elmo!!
killing me with the alliteration
I will never hear the town of rio Linda without thinking of Rush Limbaugh. 😢
