Because someone who was planning on ending their own life would be incapable of lying to implicate their spouse/make their suicide look like a murder? I'm not saying that is what happened, but it is definitely possible. I think it is far from a "dead giveaway" as you described it. It is definitely evidence worthy of consideration, though. The low standard of proof for people in a comment section never ceases to amaze me.
@AxelordSMIJES I understand that people in the comments are not sworn jurors, qualified investigators or doing anything other than sharing their first impressions in a low stakes forum, do you?
At the end of Dr Grande’s monologue I am always anxiously awaiting to see if the perpetrator was “exceedingly creepy” or not. In this Seth is guilty but not convicted of the atrocious crime of exceeding creepiness. Yep. The Doc is the MAN
partners can be weak point for these power drunk guys. Abusing them seems to get them in trouble all the time. It's funny how some women advertise they only date cops. Kind of makes you think they want control over a power hungry monster.
Right! Absolute cherry picking of evidence. They already chose the outcome and just went collecting evidence to support it. A case like this is probably always cut and dry in their experience but surely something like that could undermine the prosecution in the hands of Johnnie Cochran tier lawyer.
The reason Seth's parents were supporting him is because he was battling cancer at the time and couldn't work. His cancer went into remission in 2017. When I first heard that his parents were paying his bills I immediately assumed he was a lazy slob Mama's boy but knowing that he was battling cancer changes my attitude a bit. *** I still think he killed her but maybe he's not a mama's boy.
True and good perspective but his Dad bought him that huge nice house. I had a feeling Seth as a rookie cop and his wife as a former receptionist (then no longer working), couldn’t afford that house esp in FL.
This leaves me to wonder what Seth's job interview was like.... Police Chief: tell me about your work history. Seth: my parents support me. Chief: where do you live? Seth: in a house my father bought me. Chief: you're hired.
So the police never tested her hands to see if there was gun powder residue on her hand! Did the corner test it? So her arms were down by her side, which they wouldn't be if she committed suicide, the clip was over by the door of the room, and yet the police never checked her hands for residue! Sure sounds like they tried to cover it up, or maybe it was just very sloppy police work! Maybe someone should be looking at the hiring practices there too!
The magazine was on the bed. A spent casing was 17 feet away by the door. I'm thinking the cops were initially gonna cover for him and realized that they couldn't sell it. The medical examiner didn't get the memo.
@@superluminalsquirrel9359 If she didn't have residue on her hand, then it wasn't self-inflicted! The court system apparently realized what had happened from the other evidence, but this is totally botched and sloppy police investigation and evidence gathering on their part! Either an attempt of a cover up, or idiots with guns and badges!
No idea if it was suicide or murder, but I do know one thing about that pistol. The S&W Bodyguard .380 has a history of the magazine falling out of it after firing the weapon. I own one, and that used to happen to me at the range. I've since purchased an aftermarket magazine catch. Why would someone make a magazine catch for this specific pistol if it didn't have this defect S&W refused to address? Search youtube, there are several videos of this magazine falling out of the pistol. You could be correct about accidentally touching the mag release when firing. I made an effort to not do that, and it was still falling out. Galloway aftermarket mag release fixed it for me.
After a quick google search, I see this issue being cited on MANY different forums. Now I have even MORE doubt. That coupled with the ME's finding would have left me at a Not Guilty verdict based on the info provided here. I wish Dr. Grande would have given just a bit more info on this gun, given his familiarity with firearms.
However if that happened the magazine would not have allowed another bullet to be chambered. So the magazine did not just fall out after firing. if it would have the bullet would have stayed in the magazine. Also how far away was the magazine away from the gun? Those magazines are not spring loaded with enough tension to move it more than a foot. So the magazine was removed after firing. The location of the spent cartridge is another issue. Yes they do fly out of the pistol, but generally not further than 3 or 4 feet. I think him getting convicted was the correct judgement. Also someone shooting themselves in such a manner will not leave the hands and arms by their sides. another tell tale sign that something was fishy.
How did the medical examiner come to the conclusion that Amanda's death was at her own hands? At the very least, the cause of death could have been ruled undetermined. I'm glad the ME report was ignored by the prosecutors and the jury
Until he suddenly became a small-town cop; with no prior experience or school, living in the huge house his daddy bought. And always with the ME's ruling murders as suicides, even though it's obviously not; until a lawyer or judge tells them otherwise.
Magazine Removal. I was thinking someone removed a periodical publication until he got to that part. Genius, pure genius, smh. 🤗 Mama always said I was special!
Not just in the US. My dad played for local hockey teams in the 1950s (businesses in Canada used to have them, and they played against each other) and he was really good. He was offered a job as a police officer in a small Quebec town, with zero training and zero expectations of doing the job, he just had to play on their team. They gave him a uniform, a gun (he had never shot one and practiced shooting empty cans in a field) and said "score some goals". He resigned after a few months after witnessing his colleagues regularly raiding the local liquor store, harboring a ch*ild m*lester friend of theirs so he wouldn't be prosecuted, and almost beating a gay man to death with a fire hose.
Same here, I’ve never known anything about firearms, and the most I’ve learned about them is through this channel as a byproduct of the main stories. It’s excellent work.
He was a cop for about 14 months prior to killing his wife. There is no way a thorough, competent background check was done on him prior to being hired.

He got her drunk she passed out he put the gun in her hands (as most people know that have gone to college or house parties a passed out drunk is as vulnerable as a new born baby. I've drawn and had some obscene things drawn on my face but digress lol), positioned her in suicidal scenario, helped her pull the trigger, set up the scene and had to prematurely rush things after the cop showed up. It's why he had gun powder residue on his hands
Many pistols can be fired without a magazine inserted as long as a round has already been chambered. If a pistol does not have a “magazine disconnect safety” then it can be fired without the magazine. I don’t know if the bodyguard 380 has this feature and I don’t care to check.
The pistol can be fired without the magazine in. Insert magazine, rack pistol, drop magazine. The pistol is now loaded with one round in the chamber and no magazine in. Many people have shot themselves because they didn't know this. This mistaken assumption changes the whole story.
There was a cartridge in the chamber on the scene. Although it could have reloaded after being fired and the magazine release button pressed due to recoil. I suppose..
The coroner made the finding that she pulled the trigger, but did not check for gunpowder residue? That is some very shoddy work, very questionable. He needs to find another line of work. Usually in case of suicides medical examiners / coroners in the absence of absolute proof of suicide with also get the deceased records or make a finding that the cause is likely to be suicide. Most medical examiners that I know of take their jobs very seriously. They often state that they speak for the dead. they are not interested in covering up for anyone, no matter how painful the truth is.
If there are DV incidents involving choking, the likelihood of murder goes WAY up! In the book, ‘The Gift of Fear’, Gavin talks about how obtaining protective orders can lead to further violence, so it’s not always the best option
I just watched a body cam video of cops coming up on the crime scene and one of the cops immediately clears the fire arm just out of habit and the other tells him to not do that. Especially when you dont know who else is in the location i can understand the need to make sure you dont just leave a fire arm someone can potentially use later.
It’s extremely fishy that she was never tested for gunshot residue. He was saying from the beginning that she’s the one who fired the gun. The police could have easily disproven that idea by testing her and not finding any residue. This is very basic stuff.
Hold up. The gun was found by her feet but the autopsy came back as suicide. How the hell did she shoot herself in the head, then throw the gun down towards her feet? I'm just glad the police didn't cover up for the killer
I guess the examiner just saw the tell tale sign of a barrel pressed to skin and said "Good enough 🤷♂️" but my word nothing about that crime scene added up to it
Well, here’s a few ways. Maybe when she fired it she jerked and it knocked in a random direction. Maybe at about off the bed. Maybe it bounced off a pillow. Maybe it bounced off her knee. it doesn’t mean anything that it wasn’t found where you think it should’ve been found. Have you ever dropped your phone near the bed? Where does it land? Who knows. Somewhere in the area. Guns work like that too. I’m not saying that he didn’t kill her. I’m just saying that for some reason people always make these very flimsy arguments about how something could not have happened and therefore that means that someone is guilty. “ I can’t explain it.” is not very good evidence of guilt.
Ballistic forensics used to determine suicide is more or less angle of entry and gun position, two things the shooter could have figured out by placing the gun in her hand, placing it against her head, and then firing it for her. That could also explain the unloaded magazine, if he accidentally bumped the release as he tried letting go of the pistol. It would also explain having a minute amount of gsr on his hand, which wouldn't have been there at all, had she been the one who pulled the trigger
Women are too forgiving or could be traumatized by all the abuse. Either way, the results are disastrous & sad when they stay with angry or crazy partners. Great breakdown again. Thanks Dr G😊💜💜
I don’t believe Seth. What kind of story was he trying to pull off. Women don’t generally shoot them selves and definitely not dramatically in front of her abuser.
Seth did not have a job; he was supported by his parents, so he became a police officer. Obviously, Seth was neither "self-motivated" nor was he a "self-starter." And that is what's wrong with many police departments, these days. It used to be that children grew up dreaming of being a police officer, and there was a high bar: physical fitness, college degree with a decent GPA, age between 25-35, squeaky clean record, psych eval, and so on. Now, many departments will happily give you a badge and a gun if you have a GED and a pulse. When a cop steps out of line, their fellow officers will protect them. And, so, we end up with officers like Seth, here. He was lazy, entitled, short-tempered, and solves problems with violence. When he stepped out of line (the mudering his wife part), his fellow officers didn't do a thorough investigation and made their results fit his narrative. Fortunately, a prosecutor chose to see through the charade, otherwise Seth would have gotten away with murder.
I was done when I heard that Amanda's hands weren't checked. To me that indicates that no exculpatory evidence would or could be found on scene, because the police didn't look for it. I can't get to "beyond a reasonable doubt" under those circumstances. He was probably convicted on the "strength" of the magazine evidence. It sounds very strong, but it is a complete non-sequetor.
Why the hell was a GSR test not done on Amanda's hands? That would have given a clear and definitive answer. I mean, the fact that Amanda shot herself while standing in the doorway, took apart the gun, placed it on the foot of the bed, got into bed, put her hands by her side and died all without getting a drop of blood anywhere other than the bed all while severely drunk just to frame Seth. Someone should have proven her hand was covered in GSR and cleared poor, innocent, Seth's name.
Why is it so easy for weird people to join the various law enforcement bodies in the USA? The selection criteria is quite hard in most jurisdictions overseas.
Unwisely!!😂😂 Oh, Dr. Grande!! You make me laugh. A lot. I’m not exactly sure what it was about that one word for me, today, but it really set me on one. Thankfully, I was not in public. These cases are not funny but Dr. Grande cracks me up. One thing I’ll say is if I had a gun at my head I’d write that note. I’m such a skeptic (I’m not advocating for extreme skepticism, btw 😉) that my mind wouldn’t even consider that note as any type of proof that pointed to Amanda having harmed herself, and I can’t imagine that any half decent investigator would either. So, there’s that. Another thing I’ll say is that it’s another awful tragedy committed by a loser, it seems. RIP Amanda. 🕊 Thank you, Dr. Grande. Hope you’re doing well. See you on the next one. ❤️🙂
Thanks for the upload, Dr. Grande! Your true fans love your humor and sarcasm. All negative comments will be reported. September 12 is Video Games Day, National Chocolate Milkshake Day, National Day of Encouragement, National Policewoman's Day, and Report Medicare Fraud Day.
@@DavidDeeble Yes, this individual's comments are tedious. A daily diet of spam served up every day to Dr. Grande's viewers is most certainly a recipe for tedium to a 'T'. Make a comment about it, and one is labeled a 'bully' and/or reported.
My biggest hangup would be the magazine being removed. Why would Seth remove the magazine if he was trying to stage a suicide? Yes, people who commit murder are not geniuses but there is some doubt. If the ME found that Amanda's grip on the gun could have ejected the magazine after the recoil, the same could happen to the shooter. Seth may have not noticed the magazine fell out after he shot. Weird case where reasonable doubt would become a big issue.
Today’s question is…On the TV sitcom “Growing Pains”, why was the recurring character Richard Milhous Stabone referred to as “Boner”? Was it just a sobriquet for his last name or was it due to a frequent and sustained personal issue he was having around Maggie and Carol?
If a wife really felt terrible about falsely accussing her husband of DV why would she write a note and then end herself? Wouldn't that just make her husband look worse like exactly what happened.
Hey Dr Grande! I was wondering if you could do a video about Bam Margera. It’s a rather interesting case of what happens when parents let their children do whatever they want, and then is paid to create chaos.
yes, I'm interested in that too, especially since he posted such a scathing video about Harris's inability to speak understandably. That was a pretty devastating video he posted about her.
I think he's guilty. But some pistols can fire with one in the chamber and no magazine inserted. I'm not sure if that's the case with that particular pistol.
Interesting case it sounds like Seth was targeted by a woman looking for a sugar daddy husband but somehow it seems Seth had agressive tendances maybe not such a great catch after all… circumstances show it was Seth but the coroner findings are a direct conflict. I concur Dr Grande spot on as usual. The magazine removal was the biggest tell.
The victim’s hands not checked for gun shot residue? Great work everybody. 🎉
No kidding!
My thoughts exactly. The degree of incompetence that would lead to not doing it is mind-boggling, and barring incompetence, any other reason produced for it not being done would lead to some pretty dark places.

If there are DV incidents involving choking, the likelihood of murder goes WAY up!
In the book, ‘The Gift of Fear’, Gavin talks about how obtaining protective orders can lead to further violence, so it’s not always the best option
I'm going to def check out the book you mentioned here. Sounds super interesting. Thanks for the post my friend 💕
@@0megaVon it’s such a good book! It’d be great if lots of young people could read it. I’m glad I mentioned it! Thanks 🌻
I just watched a body cam video of cops coming up on the crime scene and one of the cops immediately clears the fire arm just out of habit and the other tells him to not do that.
Especially when you dont know who else is in the location i can understand the need to make sure you dont just leave a fire arm someone can potentially use later.
It’s extremely fishy that she was never tested for gunshot residue. He was saying from the beginning that she’s the one who fired the gun. The police could have easily disproven that idea by testing her and not finding any residue. This is very basic stuff.
Incompetent of the police men or women.
Hold up. The gun was found by her feet but the autopsy came back as suicide. How the hell did she shoot herself in the head, then throw the gun down towards her feet? I'm just glad the police didn't cover up for the killer
I guess the examiner just saw the tell tale sign of a barrel pressed to skin and said "Good enough 🤷♂️" but my word nothing about that crime scene added up to it
Well, here’s a few ways. Maybe when she fired it she jerked and it knocked in a random direction. Maybe at about off the bed. Maybe it bounced off a pillow. Maybe it bounced off her knee. it doesn’t mean anything that it wasn’t found where you think it should’ve been found. Have you ever dropped your phone near the bed? Where does it land? Who knows. Somewhere in the area. Guns work like that too. I’m not saying that he didn’t kill her. I’m just saying that for some reason people always make these very flimsy arguments about how something could not have happened and therefore that means that someone is guilty. “ I can’t explain it.” is not very good evidence of guilt.
Ballistic forensics used to determine suicide is more or less angle of entry and gun position, two things the shooter could have figured out by placing the gun in her hand, placing it against her head, and then firing it for her. That could also explain the unloaded magazine, if he accidentally bumped the release as he tried letting go of the pistol. It would also explain having a minute amount of gsr on his hand, which wouldn't have been there at all, had she been the one who pulled the trigger
Love these videos! Could you review Tyreek Hill's encounter with the police after being pulled over for speeding?
This episode reminded me of a musician named Seth Putnam. You would enjoy performing an episode on his life and achievements in the music industry.
Women are too forgiving or could be traumatized by all the abuse. Either way, the results are disastrous & sad when they stay with angry or crazy partners. Great breakdown again. Thanks Dr G😊💜💜
I don’t believe Seth. What kind of story was he trying to pull off. Women don’t generally shoot them selves and definitely not dramatically in front of her abuser.
At least, this is one cop that a judge can't give a short sentence or just probation to.
oo. too. Got it?
Also = Too. Get it?
@@droldsw31 - You are wrong as usual. Now bounce, retread.
Seth did not have a job; he was supported by his parents, so he became a police officer. Obviously, Seth was neither "self-motivated" nor was he a "self-starter." And that is what's wrong with many police departments, these days. It used to be that children grew up dreaming of being a police officer, and there was a high bar: physical fitness, college degree with a decent GPA, age between 25-35, squeaky clean record, psych eval, and so on. Now, many departments will happily give you a badge and a gun if you have a GED and a pulse. When a cop steps out of line, their fellow officers will protect them.
And, so, we end up with officers like Seth, here. He was lazy, entitled, short-tempered, and solves problems with violence. When he stepped out of line (the mudering his wife part), his fellow officers didn't do a thorough investigation and made their results fit his narrative. Fortunately, a prosecutor chose to see through the charade, otherwise Seth would have gotten away with murder.
Not everyone is a go getter or type A personality type so you shouldn’t do pretentious
he was living with his parents while recovering from cancer
I was done when I heard that Amanda's hands weren't checked. To me that indicates that no exculpatory evidence would or could be found on scene, because the police didn't look for it. I can't get to "beyond a reasonable doubt" under those circumstances.
He was probably convicted on the "strength" of the magazine evidence. It sounds very strong, but it is a complete non-sequetor.
Why the hell was a GSR test not done on Amanda's hands? That would have given a clear and definitive answer. I mean, the fact that Amanda shot herself while standing in the doorway, took apart the gun, placed it on the foot of the bed, got into bed, put her hands by her side and died all without getting a drop of blood anywhere other than the bed all while severely drunk just to frame Seth. Someone should have proven her hand was covered in GSR and cleared poor, innocent, Seth's name.
Greetings, Earthlings.
Thanks Dr Big.! 😉 😉 👍 👍
My heart breaks for the kids left behind.
We all know how their story ends
what can i say ... demons walk among us. and they wear, human faces ...
At first glance I thought this said "they wear human feces," 😮😂
I can’t tell if Dr. Grande is a gun enthusiast, or just a great researcher.
Bit of both, I suspect.
@@eadweard. probably.
Why is it so easy for weird people to join the various law enforcement bodies in the USA?
The selection criteria is quite hard in most jurisdictions overseas.
Could you please analyze the case of Cecelia Sharkey?
Seth was grandiose. Are fans of Dr. Grande grandiose?
I’m just exceedingly creepy.
Never put his hands on her !? She sure looked bruised in those pictures! 😡
Unwisely!!😂😂
Oh, Dr. Grande!! You make me laugh. A lot. I’m not exactly sure what it was about that one word for me, today, but it really set me on one. Thankfully, I was not in public. These cases are not funny but Dr. Grande cracks me up. One thing I’ll say is if I had a gun at my head I’d write that note. I’m such a skeptic (I’m not advocating for extreme skepticism, btw 😉) that my mind wouldn’t even consider that note as any type of proof that pointed to Amanda having harmed herself, and I can’t imagine that any half decent investigator would either. So, there’s that.
Another thing I’ll say is that it’s another awful tragedy committed by a loser, it seems. RIP Amanda. 🕊
Thank you, Dr. Grande. Hope you’re doing well.
See you on the next one. ❤️🙂
Thanks for the upload, Dr. Grande! Your true fans love your humor and sarcasm. All negative comments will be reported. September 12 is Video Games Day, National Chocolate Milkshake Day, National Day of Encouragement, National Policewoman's Day, and Report Medicare Fraud Day.
You are allowed to report comments for just being negative?
I find your comments tedious.
@@DavidDeeble Yes, this individual's comments are tedious. A daily diet of spam served up every day to Dr. Grande's viewers is most certainly a recipe for tedium to a 'T'. Make a comment about it, and one is labeled a 'bully' and/or reported.
@@criSOME1 Of course!
@@criSOME1 Yes, but nothing will actually happen aside from everyone else wondering why an adult would do this
Incompetence cops, as usual
I think that tells you a lot if her kids didn’t even live with her, they lived with their grandparents
My biggest hangup would be the magazine being removed. Why would Seth remove the magazine if he was trying to stage a suicide? Yes, people who commit murder are not geniuses but there is some doubt. If the ME found that Amanda's grip on the gun could have ejected the magazine after the recoil, the same could happen to the shooter. Seth may have not noticed the magazine fell out after he shot. Weird case where reasonable doubt would become a big issue.
He removed that magazine just like a cop would……so automatic, he probably didn’t even realize it at first!!!!!!! 😅
“The children lived with their grandmother.”

I would like to hear your view on the character, Jack from the movie, the house that Jack built.
Today’s question is…On the TV sitcom “Growing Pains”, why was the recurring character Richard Milhous Stabone referred to as “Boner”?
Was it just a sobriquet for his last name or was it due to a frequent and sustained personal issue he was having around Maggie and Carol?
If a wife really felt terrible about falsely accussing her husband of DV why would she write a note and then end herself? Wouldn't that just make her husband look worse like exactly what happened.
Dr. Grande, can you please do a case study on Kolkata kaand of a lady doctor and also, mamta Kafle.
Hey Dr Grande!
I was wondering if you could do a video about Bam Margera. It’s a rather interesting case of what happens when parents let their children do whatever they want, and then is paid to create chaos.
12!
When is Dr Grande gonna drop a vid about the debate?
yes, I'm interested in that too, especially since he posted such a scathing video about Harris's inability to speak understandably. That was a pretty devastating video he posted about her.
1:20 sounding more and more like Idiocracy by the minute....
With the video from the neighbor, it's apparent she's was not being honest in the note. There was video evidence of her being mistreated..
I think he's guilty. But some pistols can fire with one in the chamber and no magazine inserted. I'm not sure if that's the case with that particular pistol.
Why does Doctor Grande have an encyclopedic knowledge of F|rearms???? 🤔
bray is the sound a donkey makes. Do people not look into meanings before naming their kids, or just don't care?
Never talk with cops
Liars throw up multiple stories so you won't know what the truth is
Hello 😊
Hello back and greetings from the UK 🇬🇧
@@paperchain1239 Greetings from the U.S.!💛
. Hi I hope you are enjoying Dr Grande
Interesting case it sounds like Seth was targeted by a woman looking for a sugar daddy husband but somehow it seems Seth had agressive tendances maybe not such a great catch after all… circumstances show it was Seth but the coroner findings are a direct conflict. I concur Dr Grande spot on as usual. The magazine removal was the biggest tell.
