This is exactly why my dads murder was not taken seriously.
Its the theme of the trash taking itself out. Well, my dad might have been trash to them but he was my dad. Broke my heart.
Sorry for your loss ♥️
@@andreaturnquist3345 thank you. I appreciate that.. i wish I could rewind time some and have second chances with him.
@@gemmalocatelli5916 I understand that completely. May he rest in peace ❣️
I’m sorry you went through that. People can also change and end up doing great things! I hate this kind of discrimination and lack of care about “certain” individuals. He was your dad. He mattered 😢❤
“The couple had real chemistry, for example, they used methamphetnine together”, delivered in such a dry way…..absolutely HILARIOUS 😂😂😂😂😂😂!
Not only do meth addicts have chemistry, they dabble in it. Oh the possibilities when Drano and Sudafed collide.
@@bethanybergeson4192 🤢
@Bethany Bergeson No, you use lye to freebase the pseudo, not drano. Not really feasible for the novice anymore with the modern pseudoephedrine formulations; most dope these days comes from Mexican cartels using phenyl acetone.
😂
amen, what a WIT! Luv U Doctor G
Your astute alliterative assessments are, as always, accurate and alphabetically awe-inspiring.
Clever, clever! I see you 👀 lol 😆
Nice one
I couldn’t resist 😄
Awesome!
Alliterative? Nah, assonance 😂
I used to dislike and despise people who are addicted to alcohol and drugs thinking they are just weak and giving up. They are so deceitful and selfish, causing harm to the ones who love them and care about them. Then I learned that they are struggling and they are tormented with the disease, the guilt and the shame. Someone who’s hard to love may need it most. Sad and hopeless situation to see the addicts who will do a lot just to get a fix.
It's a thing that a lot of people don't want to understand until it affects them in some way. Either through a loved one or yourself. Most who haven't been affected look at people who are going through it with contempt, and tbh people are like that with a lot of things they haven't experienced themselves. Mental health illness in general is looked down upon. Like does anyone really believe a person with a happy life that's not experienced physical or mental trauma becomes addicted to substances? We all have our coping mechanisms.
@@44LillPuffin Thank you for sharing your perspective on the subject. I wish more people were on that wavelength. Addicts are SUFFERING human beings.
@@MeganVictoriaKearnsabsolutely and there is always a chance they might get sober and say if they join NA or AA they can do so much good by helping other addicts, even becoming a sponsor 😊❤
The reason I subbed to this channel is that Doc, whenever he tells those sad stories, however tragic they might be, never forgets insert a word or two of irony. I guess it's done for the the sake of emotional relief.
Actually this story wasn't that sad at all
yes ... i think u are right .... [emotional relief] .. there is no malicious intent, he is honest and ironic, i often find myself with a wry smile even with the most tragic of 'case's'. To openly and empathically share these stories .. it is quite a skill.. an art, that Dr Grande has mastered and continues to hone.
from, long time Dr Grande fan, ... Australia ... 🕷
@@williamsherman1089 it may seem so, at the first glance. But a human dumping his life into a toilet because he cannot counquer his desires is pretty sad to me.
@@caddieohm7059 I'm with Doc for almost four years, maybe more, but, in all that time, I cannot agree with you here as I do not recall any of what you said.
@@TheJackal917 Well , at least we re creating an interesting dialogue , as he says in the beginning of every video 👀😆
no , but on all seriousness i love dr Grande s unique style of telling stories , love the calm voice , when he uploads late at night its my fav
i play his video , and even if the story is a crazy one his voice soothes me to sleep 🤷🏻♀️
Dr. Todd, excellent alliterations. I was seriously impressed, and I most liked, “shadow, stars, and seclusion.” Your shows never cease to amaze!
This is just really sad. I really hope her family someday gets some answers as to what happened to her.
Me too. But sadly, reality is she's probably in a landfill. Two weeks is PLENTY of time for every trace to be wiped. Cops don't care about addicts. It sucks, but it's true.
Her child is the victim - not Tiffany.😰
It kinda sounds like nobody looked too hard for Tiffany because it was so peaceful when she was gone.
That’s a fucked up thing to say. Obviously she had issues, but seriously? Have some fucking empathy.
Yeah some humans are just poisonous to the Soul
You must be a mother
I completely agree! I didn’t expect you to come to the same conclusion, but I feel validated! Ty!!
Me googling her name and one of my first responses under the images is a Walmart ad selling a book called the Disappearance of Tiffany Whitton. How bout that.
Regardless of character
EVERYONE deserves the same respect in regards to the law and constitution.
Hey Dr Grande when is your book of poems coming out ?
I agree with you 💯 they don't train them cops properly and see addicts as non or less humans. Smh...so sad
Thank you, Dr. Grande. I always appreciate stories from my little corner of the world. 🌎
Another excellent report... so sad for all involved...
The last portion of this video is brilliant!!
I wonder why she lied so much from such a young age. What can be done to help pathological liars?
My guess is her home life wasn’t that great and removal from her mother’s home into a competent, healthy, loving home would have (maybe) helped. But foster homes like that are very rare. So the likelihood of her getting what she needed would be slim to none.
I know someone who lies like that ,no rhyme or reason to it ,there wasn't this awful childhood. Sometimes I wonder are people just born that way or foes one small thing happen and they do it Idk. I do know that when someone close to you does that its shocking and people think you would just say your lying but it doesn't go like that.
Know someone like that, had a good and loving upbringing but is not grateful in the least. She's probably a sociopath and that likelihood was displayed from an early age.
we have a relative that lies constantly. I suppose most children will try out a lie to avoid any challenge to their bad behaviour, but her lying was never like that. She would lie about things that didn't matter. The best reason we can guess is that she isn't very bright (and knows it), so this behaviour is her way of trying to always seem cleverer than whoever she's talking to. She prefers to lie even when there is nothing to gain. She wasn't in an abusive family as a child, but she probably got into traumatic situations as an adult though none of her family are likely to find out the truth about anything. The constant lying has turned her into a person that most people would never willingly spend time with. She's in her mid 40s, so that's not going to change.
@@mandolyn You never know what goes on in another’s home. Even if you’re in that same home. Things can be hidden quite well, leaving others unsuspecting of what is really going on.
Someone that is “born to lie” is often a psychopath. A true psychopath is rare. Bundy was the closest to that we have seen in recent times. This woman was not like Bundy.
I found it odd that the Mother in this case said the child was taking things that were not hers at age two, yet in none of her statements, does she hold herself accountable as the parent.
At two, a child often mimics what they see in their own homes. They’re just beginning the process of learning what it is to be in society - from their parents/caregivers.
Setting aside her disappearance, what strikes me is how this young woman displayed troubling, asocial behaviors from a very, very young age. It seems that her life went downhill almost from the get go. Why? What was part of her makeup? Was it emotional, or was it something like her brain was wired wrong? Meaning, was she born that way? Although obviously not condoning her actions, the whole thing is sad.
Interesting comment. She was VERY young g when those troubling signs emerged…got to wonder if it was nature then the nurture made it worse somehow? (Not blaming her folks…know nothing about them)
In Wales the police told the parents of to stop ringing them and three of the five of the people reported missing was found dead. The other two lay next to them for two days. They crashed a car and the public found them after looking.
Accurate and articulate use of alliteration, dear sir!
Since when do police show anyone empathy
That was a truly beautiful summation of such a poignant topic!
I do not mean to lessen the seriousness of Tiffany's disappearance but I cannot help but imagine her reflecting on her arrest for attempting to steal FLIP FLOPS while watching recent videos of thugs in California pushing shopping carts full of stolen merchandise straight out of the door because the store is not allowed to stop them and although the store would report it to LE, LE would not respond nonetheless make an arrest.
Seriously. It is a really weird world that we live in.
A thief is a thief. The "thug" stealing flip flops in this story or the "thugs" in Your town stealing from a store without paying. They are All criminals!
This type of story illustrates how dangerous liars are. Not this missing victim. People who lie about the character of others in order to erode their reputation and place them in danger with no support. Imagine what we have heard about her and that it was told by liars. How your life would fall apart especially if those people had the ear of law enforcement.
The best thing about this analysis is the stunning sequence of alliteration by the savvy psychologist while summing up the sad story of the still missing Tiffany. Her life was a mess from the beginning when the adults in her life failed her on so many levels. Even before the addictions of substances, she was addicted to taking things. I don't believe a 2 year old believing those toys were hers should be counted as "theft" as that stage of childhood development involves lots of magical thinking. However, if she was constantly being labeled a "thief", she may have come to believe it of herself, and lived up to the label. As my grandmother used to say, "If you've got the name, you might as well have the game." I would love Dr Grande to try and analyze Tiffany BEFORE drugs. As always, insightful analysis of a disturbing case.❤
Superb word play, content and delivery Sir!😊
I like these videos, mostly because of the Dr. Grande part.
Dr grande this is one of the best vids you have done. Thanks
"Good chemistry together... meth" Lol
You have a good podcast , especially your humor! Thank you
It is unfortunate and heartbreaking for the already emotionally exhausted family. Some people are accidents waiting to happen because of their erratic behavior. There are humans out there who prey on these folks and like you mentioned, take advantage.
How is Ashley's presumption of innocence in the matter of the disappearance of Tiffany relevant to Ashley's sentence for drug dealing? The judge enhancing Ashley's sentence for that should be grounds for appeal.
I'm not sure if you have covered Matthew Hoffman but if not id love to hear what your analysis would be on him. I recently read a book on that crime ("Girl in the Leaves" i believe was the title)and its one that sticks with me due to his odd and disturbing behaviors.
I completely agree with your analysis.
Wow, you sure dig deep to get some interesting facts.
Drug addiction is horrible. I pray shes alive and getting help.
How very sad 😢. God bless Tiffany.❤❤❤
2 year olds don’t understand what a lie is or what stealing is.
I wrote a really long response to this same idea above but short version…I took my mom’s bracelet and hid it at 3. Didn’t know it was “stealing”. My punishment in my punitive home did NOT fit the circumstances 😮
2:47 😂Dr. Grande, this is the very moment I wait for in every video…your very dry joke. Beautiful! 🏆😂💯
Sensational Dr Grande, dare i say... Simply Stunning.
Smiling to Self, my friend ... from Sunny Australia ... 🕷
I really don't think under the circumstances it's at all surprising that Ashley didn't notify the police. Substance abusers with a criminal record are at risk of arrest if they go to law enforcement for anything. Also, Tiffany had a pending charge for shoplifting in addition to drug charges, so reporting her missing would probably not be appreciated.
100% accurate insight.
A few years ago a local stripper went missing after her shift. She was a single mother of a little girl. Her body lay barely concealed in a local parks for weeks because no one was really interested in looking for her. People with “high risk” lifestyles often end up missing and never found.
Drug addiction is a disease and she deserves a proper investigation just like anyone else! My sister is an addict and if the police didn’t do squat to find her I would be livid! Reguardless she’s someone’s daughter, sister, mother and deserves to be found!
Stigma for sure. . . To have an addiction is like having a monster living inside you. It sucks.
I kept thinking all those cameras would have seen which way Tiffany went, and if she even went back to the truck 🤷.
You and your alliterations. 🤣 Love them
The cactus in the background with the glasses is badass drG
Thank you for the explanation of this sad story. Praying for Tiffany.
What's the criteria for pathological rhyming? 😉
Walmart security cameras failed us? I don't think Ashley did it, otherwise he wouldn't have said the Walmart security cameras would have seen him leave, which is usually true. I thought Walmarts are usually amply equipped with parking lot security cameras.
"They had real chemistry, for example, they used methamphetamine together" LOL!!!!
Yeah, if I tell my little toddler just take whatever she wants from the daycare home I should be blamed for all the grownup troubles my little girl grew up into.
We luv ya Doc!
Hey Dr. G! I just wanted to let you know that language around adoption has really changed over the years and saying things like “gave the child up for adoption” implies the child was given away and not cared for by the bio parents, which is almost always not true and can be harmful for adoptees. I have an adopted baby girl who is 3 weeks old and we have a great relationship with her first mother, and she was very much loved and wanted by her first mother but the circumstances were too difficult.
"Speculation on her sequel remains..." DR. GRANDE SIR 😭😭😂😂😂😂
I miss 24 hour Walmart
Ppl who use substances should be looked down upon...
Not defending shoplifting but how can Walmart demand a civil restitution when they don't have proof of what, if anything Tiffany took, but they do have her entire purse, phone, it's contents and her shoes. Seems a Trespass is the best they can hope for as private property but unfortunately doesn't seem necessary. 😕
I'm pretty sure you can have birthday greetings sent automatically on Facebook
no loss to society
The way this country treats addicts is terrible, and only exasperates the problem. Glad I'm clean today
Congrats! I abused opiates for almost a decade. Literally LOST my 20's. Gone. Zero progress. Zero achievements. Zero savings acct, lol. Today I am 41. My sobriety status depends on your beliefs because I am on suboxone. But haven't used any substance (including alcohol, never my thing but whatever) that was not prescribed to me since 2011. It's so rough getting out. I am glad you and I both survived that life to have the chance to be better. So many never make it out alive.
@@MeganVictoriaKearns congrats! And if it helps it helps! I started as a teenager and also spent about a decade stuck in that trap. Hoping to make the best of the last couple years of my 20s. I did the methadone clinic for a few years, and it really did help me kinda transition into a more normal life.

Tiffany did the world a favor
Most people have an innate belief in the principle of induction. I think some people, like Tiffany, simply lack this intuitive knowledge. That's why they don't learn from their mistakes and continue to make the same mistakes over and over.
You wrote this a year ago so I don’t expect a reply but what do you mean by “induction”? I understand the “compulsion” addicts feel…
@@cops4robbers663 Induction is when you reason from specific cases to general conclusions. It's how we learn from experience. For example, if fire is hot every time you've experienced it in the past, you form the general belief that fire is always hot, so it will continue to be hot in the future.
Can you cover the Maegan Hall police officer incident?! She’s claiming to be a victim now. I’d love your input!!
Hearing that she got caught stealing flip flops from walmart reminds me of a Rodney Dangerfield joke.. "I get no respect.. I'm telling ya.. My father was so dumb.. he was so dumb that he worked in a bank and he got caught stealing Pens".
I do believe Tiffany jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire. Whoever she ran into after fleeing the scene definitely may have took advantage of her desperate situation which unfortunately ended up in her demise. Ashley on the other hand I don't think he killed her they were partners in doing drugs together. He was probably high too that night at Walmart. That lifestyle if continued has no promising future. Sadly Tiffany didn't get a second chance to find that out. I really don't think she's alive after all this time. Ashley on the other hand will have plenty of time sitting in jail to overcome his addiction just by mere cold turkey. U can never trust druggies or alcoholics.
Dr. Grande,
Maybe you could do a video about George and Kellyanne Conway, they have announced divorce.
Boo-hoo. Who cares?
oh hell no, why??
There's just too many variables when someone like this disappears.
If she was murdered, her killer might end up hurting or killing other people, too - and not necessarily another substance abuser/thief. In addition, if they catch her killer, they can interrogate that person, and perhaps incentivize them to roll over on accomplices, people higher up in the drug dealing food chain, etc.
have you covered the murder of kate bushell, she was 14 years old and brutally murdered in 1997, Exeter, UK, no one has ever been caught for the murder.
This is so sad.
Thank you for the video.
How are substances abusers looked down upon by police who are doing the substances? I see the total opposite. People are getting harmed all the way around
You want to know what stood out to me? Well I'll tell you anyway: 'when Tiffany ran out of the Walmart ,no one chased after her...' it was almost as if no one in here life cared enough to rescue her. 😢
Beautiful child. So sad.
Hello Doctor Grande !!! Thank you for another excellent video ☺👍
I'd say that she got karma if she tried to do evil to one of her victims and the victim overpowered her in self defence and won the fight. She got what was eventually coming to her. She learnt the hard way that it wrong.
Imagine being fired from IHOP
There's always Waffle House 🤷♂️
No one is above the law, but no one is below it eighter.
I believe parents cause depression and other mental illnesses, mostly so called caring mother’s who themselves have been through the same upbringing
lol I tried to steal a toy from daycare but it was pretty obvious I was leaving with a giant wooden dog, so that didn't work.
So sad,
The really bad part is most cops are abusing substances themselves.
This happened in my area .
When you first said, “iHop” 😂😂😂👌👌
Parents not doing their job create a walking, talking nightmare for everyone else.
She might have known a couple people who could have helped her out afterwards that were addicts too.
Considering how unhinged she was, it is unlikely she would have the discipline to hide out and avoid people recognizing her.
I am curious where what the most likely place people go when in these positions.
I think he lied about pulling weapons on store security because in the culture of people in the drug scene, he would be considered a punk or a snitch even if he didn't resist them or assist in her getting away.
While I won’t speculate on the endings you have used recently, I would compare them to beating a dead horse. Oh, and nice new cacti making an appearance stage left.
I reckon she probably hailed down passing cars until she found a willing john she could make some money off to then obtain more drugs. Probably she was murdered by him, or subsequently ended up somewhere else where she might have met her demise.
What is a pathological liar? I thought all lying was pathological.
Living on the margins is dangerous
When you have warrents or on the run from the law.your not missing your on the run
I lost my leg when I was 3 years old. When I was 51 I realized I would need a wheelchair to get around my house without my leg on.
I had a telephone interview for the the wheel chair and the lady asked me how I got around the house all these years. I said, "I hopped"
She asked me, "Why can't you hop now?"
I answered, "Well, International house of pancakes went out of business."
She was like "What does that have to do-" Then a long drown out Ooohhh and she started laughing.
The real reason I can't hop as much any more is, I was 51, and I'd been hopping on one leg for 48 years.
Did you not want to use a prosthetic leg? Just curious.
Love and peace
I really appreciated the chemistry and meth line lol
I enjoy the consonance laden summaries. 😂😂😂
Oh, I do love alliteration❤ and btw you are prolific 🤗
Great alliteration
I'm here for the puns 😂
A pathological liar and her boyfriend...
Given the scant evidence and that Ashley hadn't according to reports not enough time to do anything harmful to his partner, it is likely that she decided to leave the state because it was another in a long line of offences that would send her back to jail for a very long time.
The boyfriend should have reported her as missing even if the police were dismissive or at the very least told the mother or family he had contact with.
I would wager that she is living under a different name to avoid the authorities.
