“Once upon a time, there was a man named Daniel. His wife was a cheating scumbag, and his daughter was narcissistic sociopath. He was assaulted by the courts; stabbed to death by his own daughter; and set on fire by her boyfriend. His family SUCKED. The end.” RIP Daniel, and I hope his other son & daughter live a better life ❤️ So tragic & unfair.
He chose to stay with his cheating wife. That's mistake #1, just saying. I do feel awful for him, but staying in a relationship *knowing* they cheat, is absolutely the worst choice to make. Even if you have kids, *it's over*
This case is horrible. She didn't care about anything. They brutally killed him, abused the corpse and fled,filming videos, joking, talking about sex with her BF. No concern, no feelings, no remorse. Monster.
Pro tip: you can run away as young star-crossed lovers without having to kill your parents, or indeed anyone. Such crimes never increases success rate.
True. I left home at 16yrs old. Not a great decision but better than hurting someone. It was hard. I landed on my feet by 23yrs old. Went to college while getting my ged. So things worked out well because I thought of others.
I knew Dan since elementary school, we lived on the same road. He was literally the kindest, most empathetic, person I’ve ever known in my life and I miss him EVERY day. Doc, you did a fantastic job with your analysis. I appreciate the kindness most everyone shows Dan. I’m sad that Sierra has shown zero remorse.
you never know people beyond what they show you. and he could be an awesome friend or coworker, but an awful boyfriend/husband. There are aspects of people you will never get to see from your perspective, as sad as it may seem. not saying they lied for example, just that we know them for what they are to us with us specifically, and not beyond.
@@magical571 I don't disagree with you - People usually or almost always have two sides - The side they reveal to you, and then the side they do not. When this all happened, I investigated everything I could get my hands on, from phone records provided to me by Dan's family, talked with people in his inner circle, reviewed the custody case and hearings that were public, on and on. I tried to make some sense of what had happened. In most custody disputes the child is put in a position to chose one parent over the other; Sierra most closely identified emotionally with her mother. Which is really weird because despite what the ex-wife/Sierra's mother said about Dan "keeping Sierra from her" there were very few calls from her to Sierra. Additionally, I uncovered this history of the ex-wife/Sierra's mom playing the victim card over and over. In fact, you can Google her name and find the info for yourself. I truly believe Sierra channeled this same energy to justify what she did to Dan.
I think the brutality of the crime should make the daughter ineligible for parole after 20 years. Stabbing is such an intimate violent act and she participated in stabbing her father 70 times. That is unreal and totally heartless. Is there rehabilitation for that?
The judge is just as dumb and easily manipulated as the dad in this case. The murder wasn’t enough for him to get that’s she’s psycho??? Ugh. Makes me lose faith in the legal system.
No there is not rehabilitation for that She is Sociopath,Narc and always will be Her pics say so much ...ugly outside because she is so evil on the inside She should never be released
@Johnny Natural no excuses she knew exactly what she did. She chose that route. There are kids her age I myself NEVER had "quality time" with my parents ever I didn't turned out like her.
@@glow1815 you guys always take a moral high ground when you don't even know the situation. You aren't her, you don't know what was going on behind the scenes. So kindly shut the hell up.
Blood bond ?Say your kids hate you without saying it there is no such thing ....people are legit still think kids are property still in 2023 good luck with that .
Elizabeth is running for office in Nevada. Please never let that woman amass any power. This story was too much and reflects so poorly on her decisions as a parent. She is trying to say Daniel "molested" Sierra in her one statement, to save face because clearly, her image and not her kids health appear to not be a priority, but amassing power is. I pray for their children. I cannot imagine what they go through. What parent would want their children regularly on camera or to read criticism of their mother after they lost their sister and their father. You don't need a psych degree to understand how emotionally traumatizing that court case must have been for the remaining children.
The fact he abused his daughter and then some and people believe his BS is mind blowing. The fact people don’t have discernment and lack logical reasoning is mind blowing. 🤷♀️
I'll never forget a case I had when working at Juvenile Detention near the Mexican border. I had 25 young males in my caseload...then a sixteen-year-old girl arrived. She and her 25 year-old boyfriend were angry because her father refused to allow the boyfriend to move in. There were 4 younger daughters in the home besides his wife. This man was well liked in the community and worked frieght for a bus company. The couple somehow drove him to a bridge and shot him in cold blood. They were apprehended and arrested, charged with murder. The girl's first request upon arrival was to use the phone to call her mother. I was standing nearby and was appalled that she had the audacity to demand her mother get her out. She had no clue that she had robbed her mother of the man she lived and rook their father away from his daughters. She was selfish, Narcissistic, and oblivious to the consequences of her crime! Of all my clients/patients/students have I ever feel such a lack of pity. ..as well as with these two.
Damn. That's pretty hard core. I have a daughter that will be turning eighteen soon. She has these sorts of traits. I have pretty much given up on having a relationship with her. As an early teen she would hound me that I should kill myself. The mother made these sorts of comments as a lot of soldiers in my unit suicided. At one point she said she wished she had a gun so she could kill. In top of a lot of really demeaning and narcissistic behavior. Mom had Borderline Personality Disorder and I think my daughter also has it. It pains me, but I want both nutjobs far from me.
What’s wrong with women these days, especially some young women?? Vengeful, blindly selfish and cold hearted….. (I’m a middle age female, but lately it seems my gender is really too much sometimes!) 😵💫 (Not that men are innocent either.)
@@culturalobserver8721 Thats not new. Its just out in the open now. Men are much much much worse. A girl killing her father for s3x, money, etc is rare
I think a wife can be put off when a husband decides to live on her income and won't get a job even though they moved explicitly for a job for him. A man who "will" not (not cannot) provide for his family will put a woman off. She won't feel they are equal. Couples are different, but this seems to be a couple who agreed he'd work and she'd work - at least initially.
Really crappy how the father supported his wife’s dreams to the point of sacrificing his own just to be cheated on, called a liar, and have charges pressed against him. Then have his kids moved cross country which the court should have never allowed. I feel horrible for Daniel, he didn’t deserve any of this. I don’t mean to take away from the tragedy of his death but gosh he had it rough in his life too. Selfishness all around. Talk about being used and not valued whatsoever by your so called family. It looks like it happened all over again with Sierra, he sacrificed and fought for her and she was only using him until he was no longer useful and discarding him like trash. Except ofc on a more extreme level. Praying for the family of his that loved and adored him.
A lot of modern women are selfish. It doesn’t matter how educated they are or how innocent they look, it falls down to the children and daughters.. I bet the daughter was the way she was because of her mother.
I used to say “ Why can’t we all just get along?” Now I say “ Why can’t we just not kill each other?” Middle age has brought out my pragmatic side. Thanks Dr. Grande.
I feel like the best way to put it would be “why can’t we all just tolerate each other (without killing one another). I guess not killing is a sort of obvious condition of tolerance.
Shocking that a daughter could do this to her dad. What must have been his thoughts when he woke to realize he was being murdered by his child? Ugh. Sierra is a psychopath
It is so awful... My dad was my best friend ❤ I miss him every single day! How could anyone possibly do something like that?!? Ugh- Makes my skin crawl.
Daniel wasn't perfect but you can see he changed his lifestyle and was in a good place with his children. The daughter has no excuse- she could have just gone back to her mother and lived there BUT she chose not to and stayed with her dad. She could have waited until she turned 18 and her parents couldn't do anything. Sierra is a selfish brat and her accusing her dad of abuse is the opposite of what she did as she didn't want to go back to her mom and preferred her dad. I find it disgusting that she accused her dad of abuse and all vile things when he's no longer around to defend himself. I hope she suffers in prison for what she did to her own dad. Her bf was more remorseful than her, she has zero remorse. RIP Daniel.
@CancelledOpinion women get this belief around 35 40 that men should date their age, funny even in high school they bragged about their older college boyfriends
Running away would be SO much easier. Teens that kill their parents so they can run away just cant seem to grasp that they can skip that brutal step and just go. They always end up being caught rather quickly and now, because of murder, they've lost their freedom to a life sentence, and it's never worth it.
Running away or patiently waiting to turn 18 so she could move out ....are the ways normal teenagers think. She is probably (haven't researched much about this case) a psychopath and psychopathy urges them towards crime. It seems to me she was mentally troubled from the very beginning.
@@RadhaaischI think they pretty much dared each other to do it... people get away with murder every day but not doing it this sloppy,, they probably did it to steal his money and his car and were just too dumb to realize there's other ways of stealing money.. a car is a little tougher,, but I suppose this kids parents probably wouldn't take too kindly to having their 18 year old son move his 16 year old psycho girlfriend in...
@@micnorton9487 Perhaps! The fact that boy's parents were alerting the girl's family that these two are up to no good...speaks volumes. They could see things with more clarity and perhaps had better judgement. Yet, things went south. At least we know all the adults were 'super alert'... imagine ex-wife and mother of a 40 -something male start frantically looking for him because he didn't return phone calls....! They all knew....on some level!
Elizabeth has a lot to answer for for taking the children to Alaska. That made Daniel so vulnerable to Sierra’s later manipulation, as well as probably exacerbating her problems in the first place.
I agree, but I don't know what the answer is. Can divorced parents be forbidden to move more than, say, 200 miles away from each other? I mean, you really can't tell an adult they can't move wherever they wish, but when there are children and a second parent involved, it's just cruel to separate them like that.
@@retriever19golden55The problem is with the children. She can move wherever she likes but then she should give custody to him, her choice to go far means she has to bear the burden of traveling back to her children. I can't believe she got custody in the first place.
@@retriever19golden55 several friends had it written in divorce/custody paperwork neither parent could move out of state without approval of the other. I know of one that could not move out of county; and when she moved 1 1/2 hours away with 2nd husband and new baby; her ex filed for custody of their son and was awarded custody.
Are you serious?😮 Elizabeth had every right to remarry, move and live her life. The only responsibility she that is on her is cheating and not getting counseling for her kids. Both parents are responsible for allowing kids in adult business.
If that man abused his daughter I hope he rots. There was something not right about that man. The fact she showed no remorse shows me her hatred for him.
@@tommymack4372 you're insane, he was murdered.. stop focusing on the man who nobody can prove a bad thing about. Instead focus on the no remorse evil daughter
Parental Alienation. Tactics of Manipulation, Pushing Father to the edge and then False Arrest, stating He was Willfully Underemployed when He was paying $2300 per month in Child Support. The Manipulation aka Parental Alienation. Including that Tiger who Allowed her. From News, She was Into $$$ via High End Real Estate with Tiger. Sickening the Level of PA. That Eventual lead to the Death of the Father.
I just checked out his Facebook and he genuinely seemed like a really nice guy and a great dad. Luckily he posted quite often on Facebook so his kids and family have a lot of memories to remember him by.
@@Corn_babysource? That’s such a blatant lie it’s funny. Courts are heavily biased and tend to favor in the woman’s best interest even if she’s obviously not the best choice
@@VioletWings1353. Maybe she was raped and molested abused in every way imaginable for a child to kill their parent like that that’s probably what happened.
I couldn't imagine hurting my father... Ever. Or any person for that matter but especially my own father. This case is beyond disturbing. Watching the video they took three days after murdering her father is shocking. They seem to not care at all. Great analysis though, as always, from a great mind. 😊 Happy Wednesday, Dr Grande...thank you for being here every day. Your videos put a smile on my face and brighten my evenings. With all these crazy people in our world, It's nice to know there's great people too, such as yourself. Thank you for your hard work and reliability. ❤️
It’s extremely difficult for non-psychopathic people to imagine how psychopaths can brutally murder loved ones, not only for no real good reason, but also without any remorse whatsoever. Psychopaths are biologically incapable of feeling shame, guilt, fear, or remorse, that is how they are able to do the absolutely horrific things they do.
Real strategies criminals have used when trying to get away with murder: 1. Make sure there is plenty of surveillance footage of you purchasing body disposal equipment. 2. It is vital to dispose of evidence on your property or in a location that you are known to frequent. 3. ALWAYS keep your cellphone with you so that your every move can be traced. 4. Be sure to think of an implausible alibi that will be proven false by cellphone data and surveillance footage. 5. Make multiple google searches like: "My full name is ____________ and I just murdered ___________."
Couples should think long and hard before having children. Once you have children, it changes your life forever. Sometimes it's a blessing and sometimes, as in this case, it can be a nightmare.
22 years ago, in April 2001,a very similar case happened in Italy, my country. A 16 yo girl and her 17 yo boyfriend stabbed to death the girl's mother and little brother. Things like these rarely happen in our country and the case shocked us all so much that the media still talk about it to these days. They were sentenced to 16 years in prison, but they ended up serving only ten, in fact they are now both free to get on with their life. She married a guy and I read in a newspaper that she is expecting....I mean, our justice system is far less strict than yours in the US, shame on us!
Yes, we usually have longer sentences than other countries. But our legal system is extremely flawed at times. There was a murder at a movie theater , where an old guy shot & killed a man, a husband & dad, for being on his phone during the movie previews. I read the court transcripts. The murdered guy did nothing to provoke the killer. The killer got off free, but if he’d been a black man & done the same crime he’d be in prison for 20 years. The killer was a retired cop, and white ppl (on the jury) like retired cops. This case is called the “popcorn murderer”.
women usually choose sausage over family thats fact. thats why emotinal creatures should never be in position of power. look at how messed up they turn west euirope into a 3rd world shit whole with their stupid policy
It always amazes how young kids can be so manipulative, using people to achieve their self centered goals. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Dr. Grande.❤
They get it from their narcissistic parent's and adults. It amazes me how parents and adults like you take no accountability for anything when it comes to kids, As if you guys are perfect or we should somehow be greatful for your poor parenting😂
Hi Dr. G. They should both rot in prison. Not having any concern or empathy puts them at the top of the list of many psychonarcs. You can obviously tell by their actions alone they're using LSD. Hopefully they can be rehabilitated but not if they're not willing to change. Peace my friend, love, Janine Smiley✌💜💚💙💖❣
That's why it's important to not be a pushover with your kids. They need to know that you have boundaries for what foolishness you're willing to entertain.
Not that surprising to me. The younger you are, the more self centered you are, which is normal. Being selfish as a young child makes sense, after all it is the responsibility of the adults around you to tend to your every need. Children lack the brain development to comprehend a world outside of themselves. It’s only when certain children don’t grow out of this behavior that it becomes an issue. A lot of things can cause it but mental illness of some kind is the most common verdict, especially if it went unchecked or untreated.
Hello! This is Kari (Daniels friend from the documentary) I do want to say that you did an AMAZING JOB. Sierra literally looked at us one day and told us she didn’t have feelings, that she just mocks what everyone else is doing. We all laughed it off..sure enough…
Sometimes Children at even a young age need to be looked at VERY closely. A Woman said her SIX year old Niece saw a piece of jewelry and straight up asked her,"Who gets this jewelry when you die?" 😱The Aunt was automatically freaked out and NEVER let her Niece come to her house again after that CREEPY question. 😱 I don't blame the Aunt. That was a CREEPY question. Besides, MANY 6 year olds don't even know what death is yet, let alone to ask a CREEPY question like that. 😱
This was a great analysis. While the other content you provide is interesting and entertaining, this was especially valuable since you analyzed how these nasty individuals manipulate and destroy others. Content like this is why I started watching your channel to begin with. Thanks for producing this one.
I would say her mother who had seen her grow up understood better what kind of emotions were hiding inside her. Her father didnt and was just happy to have her back, falling into the trap of affirmation, he wanted to show her he loved her so he let her darker side take a stronger hold over her as he fed her narcissism and gave fuel to her darker thoughts, even so much as saying "im willing to die for you" what he meant was that he was willing to surrender his life to save hers, what she heard was "ohh we can kill him and he wont mind very much".
I called her out as a psychopath and Narcissist from the beginning. That our father and the mother should feel some fault. She used her children as pawns. Not that child is a monster that should never be released. Min of only 22 years for such a heinous crime is ridiculous. She shall always be a danger to others. Perhaps in 21 years I’ll read if she’s patrolled. Excellent synopsis Dr Grande. Always enjoy your videos.
I learned about this Case last Year. My Personal Thoughts are: 1. The Mother Actively Alienated the Father for Several Years: Parental Alienation. 2.Started during the Affair, continued in Counseling, Tiger allowed this Manipulation. There Seemed to also Be a Fixation with Money: Tiger High End Real Estate. This Youngest Daughter, Sierra, with prior observed Psychological Aspects, learned Manipulation Tactics that lead to the Murder. Not once in the News articles is the Parental Alienation mentioned, but from reading Information that Appeared to Be the Driving Force for Years, eventually leading to Murder committed by this Sierra. Of course the Mother would have him Falsely Arrested, and state that He was willfully Unemployed, Keeping Up with Child Support Payments of $2,300, while her Hubs and Herself Worked in High End Real Estate. Disgusting Parental Alienation Manipulation Resulting In Tragedy.
I don't understand why some teenagers can't think through the potential consequences of their actions. All she had to do was wait for a couple of years & she would have been able to move wherever & do whatever she wanted.
For some, their situation genuinely _is_ awful enough that fleeing is their best chance at not getting killed or worse, but this is not one of those cases. It's yet another incident in which someone who's emotionally immature and might have issues of some sort are angry that they didn't get their way.
If she had been smart, she could have convinced her father to buy her an apartment and pay for college too down the road. Or run away--she would still be free, just broke. Just saying...
There seems to be be so many horrible, selfish, narcissistic young people around these days, who choose to be bad just for the sake of it. And they know they can get away with it, if they are under age 😣 And I live in Australia.

Holy shit.. imagine being a flawed (but not evil man) and having your own daughter murder you, while your wife leaves you. He went out sad, rest in peace, Daniel.
These two monsters deserve the same level of disregard and violence they laughingly dished out. I’m not a very good person, but allowing them to live seems like a disservice to humanity and an insult to the only true victim in this whole story, her father.
The court system completely failed and faulted Daniel. What a train wreck. Extremely sad case and horrible end to his short life. His (ex) wife was so cruel, his daughter so callous. They completely disrespected him as a person and denied him his dignity. Even the judge.
Horrifying. Not saying Daniel was a perfect guy, but this showcases how manipulated divorce courts and child custody laws are. If he was "willfully unemployed" how is he expected to pay 2300k/month. And if she was so concerned then why didnt she pay? I feel the mother manupulated Sierra wnd turned her against the father. Happens all the time unfortunately.
😢 I can’t stop tearing each time I hear or think about this tragic story. Daniel tried his best to do the right thing for his family but ended up becoming their victim. And he never gave up on his faith, in spite going through hell. May God grant his soul eternal rest, peace and happiness!
And after being a victim of his wife, too. I couldn't imagine moving to get a better job to provide for my wife, she wants to then get a job and starts cheating....Then wants 2.5k a month child support! JFC that's a crazy amount for half the money to raise a child..Then is killed by his daughter who uses sex as her way to get her bf to kill him. So horrible. I hope both those women go to Hell.
Geez. That guy was handsome and didnt seem too terribly crazy. I mean most people would not act perfect if thier spouse cheated. He just wanted to be loved by someone. In the end he had no one. Very sad.
We don’t know her side of the story. She remarried and stayed that way. He remarried and divorced a second time. He seemed to have some maturity issues for sure. Intentionally under employed to avoid paying to support his kids? That doesn’t seem like decent behavior to me. I don’t blame the woman for divorcing him when we don’t know why she was as driven to end the relationship. Her affair was wrong, but it doesn’t mean that the husband was not also partly to blame for the breakdown of the relationship
@@vicvega3614 In the beginning of the video, he starts his relationship with his future wife while she was still in high school, and he was 5 years older.
Really? You think you can tell who someone is by how good-looking they are? This dude was twice divorced and purposefully stingy with the child support. He doesn't sound so hot to me.
Gotta tell you Doc. When I first clicked on a video of yours I was very sceptical about your calm voice and demeanor...glad I stuck around .,your channel content is amazing...👍
He supports her career but then she have affair because she thinks he is lazy because he committed to take care of family. What these kind of women want more. If he don't support then she says he don't support her, when he supports her career then she thinks he is less than her being a stay at home dad.
This one left me speechless. Murdered for just being a loving father by your own daughter. I think there was more going on than just impulsive behavior.
I feel so bad for Daniel, he was such a good dad from what we've seen. He really did have Sierra's best interest at heart. He only forbid her to see her boyfriend bc the pair planned to rob their families and run off. Him and the other parents noticed that their kids don't have the best influence on each other so they did the right thing and tried to stop it. And he was trying to be understanding with Sierra and her feelings too. But I fear that these two young people were too far gone at that point. My heart goes out for Daniel's family and friends, especially for his mom and his other two kids who have not only lost their father but their sister too...and found out that their little sister was a horrible person.
What a horrible situation. Daniel obviously realized that the boyfriend was bad news. So disappointing that his daughter sank so low as to murder the father who supported her. I do hope she grows in maturity and spirituality so she can make amends. I am, however, learning about narcissism and psychopathy and maybe this will never happen for her.
I don't wish anything but despair for people like her. I never understood the wish for redemption for monsters. They get to eventually make amends and take a weight off their shoulders while their victims suffer the ultimate finality at their lowest, in pain, fear and agony? Never seemed like justice to me.
Another great analysis! Thanks! I'm always amazed when a son or daughter feels they have to kill their parent(s) because they want to do something...like have a lot of sex. It's so senseless. BTW-I always feel like you are messing with my head with how you often move your cacti around especially when you put at least one of them very, very close tot he edge of table LOL!
Poor Man. These teenagers are out of control. Just in case I needed More reasons to remain childless 😂 Just over 11 months sober 🥰😊 it's been a wild journey ❤ Thank you for entraintaining and educating us
So many cases of kids committing parricide and familicide. I cannot count how many times I was angry with my parents growing up but I never thought to lay a hand on them, let alone injure or kill them.
I got locked up once my 1st psychiatric question why did you want too kill your dad ?I didn't never did I wanted step mom ...still do she tried too kill me twice I was like I'm in a mental ward with false charges labeled antisocial forever I really hate psychology .
There's a difference between being angry with your parents and being physically and mentally abused by them. I'm not saying it's a excuse for murder I'm just saying most people don't wanna think about both sides. Child abuse is major problem. This case stinks of it that's just my opinion.
@@tommymack4372 Your statement has nothing to do with this girl or her crime. She was neither mentally nor physically abused. As Dr. Grande stated she was a narcissistic sociopath who manipulated her father and normally got away with it. Once Daniel found out about her boyfriend being older and other frightening factors of their relationship, he put an end to it. She was a selfish brat who did not like being told no, so she and her boyfriend murdered him. There was also no remorse from her about her father's murder. She is right where she needs to be.
@@YouFilthyAnimal74 how do you know he wasn't abusive to her ?? That's probably why there was no remorse. What Dr grande said was just his opinion. She wasn't his patient. He may be right I just don't think so. There's more to the story there always is. You can have your opinion
@@tommymack4372 I'm sure if he would have abused her, she would have tried to use that as a defense as to why she murdered him or her lawyers would have tried and it would be public knowledge at this point. None of that has ever been said about Daniel and it's pretty crappy to assume that when you've heard no such thing about him. He was the victim, not her.
Just a reminder, I'm not diagnosing anybody in this video; only speculating about a situation where a sixteen-year-old ventilates her father like this.
Her mother immediately suspected foul play as soon as she couldn't reach her ex by phone. As such I don't think impulsiveness played a role here. Sierra was obviously showing signs of dangerous violent behavior while she still lived with her mother. This appears to be a case of a dangerous child whom the parents failed to deal with. I don't know if they sought medical intervention and it didn't work or if they tried to control her through discipline. ( which would have been a mistake, discipline works on rebellious teens not dangerous ones ) But the point is they knew their daughter was capable of violent acts and failed to fix her ( possible nothing could be done ) and failed to protect themselves.
@@gold707786what you say is true. But in this case it's only her words against his. She could go full "gone girl" do it to herself than present it to the law because she knows that enough to make her wins.
Good diagnosis, Dr. G. It's hard to assess really who in the end did the greater job in generating the idea of getting rid of Daniel. It very well could have been the older Guerrero just because he wasn't related or because men in general have a greater tendency to involve themselves in physical violence. It makes absolutely sense that Guerrero himself has traits of the dark triad. Nobody 'sane' would follow through in such a case I think.
Just wanted to say, still and always impressed with your quality of videos and analysis... why do I think that your "just a theory" is exactly how this thing happened? This case doesn't even have a Wikipedia page, but here you are unraveling it all (and always attending to the legal theories with accuracy, too!) Keep it up, Doctor Grande!
I grew up with very neglectful/absent parents. At 15/16yo, the only thing I wanted was to have a father like Daniel. May this amazing man rest in peace ❤
All cases of murder disgust me, but the ones that disgust me the most are when children kill loving parents who have done nothing wrong towards them. There are so many kids and even adults that wish that they had loving, caring, and supportive parents. Not only do these murderers never appreciate what they have, but they betray their parents in the worst way possible. You really have to be the scum of the earth to be able to do that
@@heav2582 I'm talking about the cases where the parents actually were good parents, not the cases where they were abusive pieces of shit who terrorised their kids. I've run into so many true crime cases where there's proof of the parents being really supportive, forgiving, and caring yet they still get killed my their kids. And yeah parents killing their kids also disgusts me, a lot! But there's something about killing someone who has sacrificed so much to provide you a good life that gets a rise out of me. Not saying that it's worse than killing your kid - I think that they're both just as awful. Child killers also get my blood boiling
@@lauraanderson8785There can also be caring and good parents in the eyes of society but in the intimacy of their home they are not so. Some parents are good providers or even spend time with their children but at times they can still take advantage of their youth and rape them. We can't tell for sure this was not such a case. There is not sufficient evidence that this was not a case of abuse and the girl had a degree of resentment towards her father. Her boyfriend fueled that resentment to use her body as well.

“Once upon a time, there was a man named Daniel. His wife was a cheating scumbag, and his daughter was narcissistic sociopath. He was assaulted by the courts; stabbed to death by his own daughter; and set on fire by her boyfriend. His family SUCKED. The end.”
RIP Daniel, and I hope his other son & daughter live a better life ❤️ So tragic & unfair.
He chose to stay with his cheating wife. That's mistake #1, just saying. I do feel awful for him, but staying in a relationship *knowing* they cheat, is absolutely the worst choice to make. Even if you have kids, *it's over*

I knew Dan since elementary school, we lived on the same road. He was literally the kindest, most empathetic, person I’ve ever known in my life and I miss him EVERY day. Doc, you did a fantastic job with your analysis. I appreciate the kindness most everyone shows Dan. I’m sad that Sierra has shown zero remorse.
you never know people beyond what they show you. and he could be an awesome friend or coworker, but an awful boyfriend/husband. There are aspects of people you will never get to see from your perspective, as sad as it may seem. not saying they lied for example, just that we know them for what they are to us with us specifically, and not beyond.
@@magical571 I don't disagree with you - People usually or almost always have two sides - The side they reveal to you, and then the side they do not. When this all happened, I investigated everything I could get my hands on, from phone records provided to me by Dan's family, talked with people in his inner circle, reviewed the custody case and hearings that were public, on and on. I tried to make some sense of what had happened. In most custody disputes the child is put in a position to chose one parent over the other; Sierra most closely identified emotionally with her mother. Which is really weird because despite what the ex-wife/Sierra's mother said about Dan "keeping Sierra from her" there were very few calls from her to Sierra. Additionally, I uncovered this history of the ex-wife/Sierra's mom playing the victim card over and over. In fact, you can Google her name and find the info for yourself. I truly believe Sierra channeled this same energy to justify what she did to Dan.
Usually….it is the nice sweetest guys that get blindsided, were prey for them. Sad but we are waking up now.

Amazing analysis sigmund🙄🙄🙄
I think the brutality of the crime should make the daughter ineligible for parole after 20 years. Stabbing is such an intimate violent act and she participated in stabbing her father 70 times. That is unreal and totally heartless. Is there rehabilitation for that?
And showed absolutely no remorse for it, none! They need to keep her locked up.
It appeared the judge was being lenient towards her, showing sympathy.
The judge is just as dumb and easily manipulated as the dad in this case. The murder wasn’t enough for him to get that’s she’s psycho??? Ugh. Makes me lose faith in the legal system.
Nope, once a psychopath, always a psychopath💯✅
No rehabilitation possible…
No there is not rehabilitation for that She is Sociopath,Narc and always will be Her pics say so much ...ugly outside because she is so evil on the inside She should never be released

She is trying to say Daniel "molested" Sierra in her one statement, to save face because clearly, her image and not her kids health appear to not be a priority, but amassing power is. I pray for their children. I cannot imagine what they go through. What parent would want their children regularly on camera or to read criticism of their mother after they lost their sister and their father. You don't need a psych degree to understand how emotionally traumatizing that court case must have been for the remaining children.

I'll never forget a case I had when working at Juvenile Detention near the Mexican border. I had 25 young males in my caseload...then a sixteen-year-old girl arrived. She and her 25 year-old boyfriend were angry because her father refused to allow the boyfriend to move in. There were 4 younger daughters in the home besides his wife. This man was well liked in the community and worked frieght for a bus company. The couple somehow drove him to a bridge and shot him in cold blood. They were apprehended and arrested, charged with murder. The girl's first request upon arrival was to use the phone to call her mother. I was standing nearby and was appalled that she had the audacity to demand her mother get her out. She had no clue that she had robbed her mother of the man she lived and rook their father away from his daughters. She was selfish, Narcissistic, and oblivious to the consequences of her crime! Of all my clients/patients/students have I ever feel such a lack of pity. ..as well as with these two.
Damn. That's pretty hard core. I have a daughter that will be turning eighteen soon. She has these sorts of traits. I have pretty much given up on having a relationship with her. As an early teen she would hound me that I should kill myself. The mother made these sorts of comments as a lot of soldiers in my unit suicided. At one point she said she wished she had a gun so she could kill. In top of a lot of really demeaning and narcissistic behavior. Mom had Borderline Personality Disorder and I think my daughter also has it. It pains me, but I want both nutjobs far from me.
Wow. I wonder where she is now? I hope she was locked up for a long time!

Another reason for men to not marry or have kids.
I think a wife can be put off when a husband decides to live on her income and won't get a job even though they moved explicitly for a job for him. A man who "will" not (not cannot) provide for his family will put a woman off. She won't feel they are equal. Couples are different, but this seems to be a couple who agreed he'd work and she'd work - at least initially.

Selfishness all around. Talk about being used and not valued whatsoever by your so called family.
It looks like it happened all over again with Sierra, he sacrificed and fought for her and she was only using him until he was no longer useful and discarding him like trash. Except ofc on a more extreme level.

Daniel wasn't perfect but you can see he changed his lifestyle and was in a good place with his children. The daughter has no excuse- she could have just gone back to her mother and lived there BUT she chose not to and stayed with her dad. She could have waited until she turned 18 and her parents couldn't do anything. Sierra is a selfish brat and her accusing her dad of abuse is the opposite of what she did as she didn't want to go back to her mom and preferred her dad.

Running away would be SO much easier. Teens that kill their parents so they can run away just cant seem to grasp that they can skip that brutal step and just go. They always end up being caught rather quickly and now, because of murder, they've lost their freedom to a life sentence, and it's never worth it.

Elizabeth has a lot to answer for for taking the children to Alaska. That made Daniel so vulnerable to Sierra’s later manipulation, as well as probably exacerbating her problems in the first place.
Yeah ol' Elizabeth sounds like a real piece of work doesn't she.
I agree, but I don't know what the answer is. Can divorced parents be forbidden to move more than, say, 200 miles away from each other? I mean, you really can't tell an adult they can't move wherever they wish, but when there are children and a second parent involved, it's just cruel to separate them like that.
@@retriever19golden55The problem is with the children. She can move wherever she likes but then she should give custody to him, her choice to go far means she has to bear the burden of traveling back to her children. I can't believe she got custody in the first place.

It’s extremely difficult for non-psychopathic people to imagine how psychopaths can brutally murder loved ones, not only for no real good reason, but also without any remorse whatsoever. Psychopaths are biologically incapable of feeling shame, guilt, fear, or remorse, that is how they are able to do the absolutely horrific things they do.
I'm sorry about the kids, especially the son because they have no father anymore and we all know what that means.
Real strategies criminals have used when trying to get away with murder:
1. Make sure there is plenty of surveillance footage of you purchasing body disposal equipment.
2. It is vital to dispose of evidence on your property or in a location that you are known to frequent.
3. ALWAYS keep your cellphone with you so that your every move can be traced.
4. Be sure to think of an implausible alibi that will be proven false by cellphone data and surveillance footage.
5. Make multiple google searches like: "My full name is ____________ and I just murdered ___________."
Couples should think long and hard before having children. Once you have children, it changes your life forever. Sometimes it's a blessing and sometimes, as in this case, it can be a nightmare.
*I have Never had SEX!!!*

The bf and her fed into each other's stupidity and immorality
22 years ago, in April 2001,a very similar case happened in Italy, my country. A 16 yo girl and her 17 yo boyfriend stabbed to death the girl's mother and little brother. Things like these rarely happen in our country and the case shocked us all so much that the media still talk about it to these days. They were sentenced to 16 years in prison, but they ended up serving only ten, in fact they are now both free to get on with their life. She married a guy and I read in a newspaper that she is expecting....I mean, our justice system is far less strict than yours in the US, shame on us!
Erika had a suo long ago. I don’t know if she is waiting another but she is already mother.
I hope the her son is a normal one.
Yes, we usually have longer sentences than other countries. But our legal system is extremely flawed at times. There was a murder at a movie theater , where an old guy shot & killed a man, a husband & dad, for being on his phone during the movie previews. I read the court transcripts. The murdered guy did nothing to provoke the killer. The killer got off free, but if he’d been a black man & done the same crime he’d be in prison for 20 years. The killer was a retired cop, and white ppl (on the jury) like retired cops. This case is called the “popcorn murderer”.
Not really, The us system hasn't done them any favours. But it certainly can feel frustrating to out inner sense of justice.

Hi Dr. G. They should both rot in prison. Not having any concern or empathy puts them at the top of the list of many psychonarcs. You can obviously tell by their actions alone they're using LSD. Hopefully they can be rehabilitated but not if they're not willing to change. Peace my friend, love, Janine Smiley✌💜💚💙💖❣
That's why it's important to not be a pushover with your kids. They need to know that you have boundaries for what foolishness you're willing to entertain.
Not that surprising to me. The younger you are, the more self centered you are, which is normal. Being selfish as a young child makes sense, after all it is the responsibility of the adults around you to tend to your every need. Children lack the brain development to comprehend a world outside of themselves. It’s only when certain children don’t grow out of this behavior that it becomes an issue. A lot of things can cause it but mental illness of some kind is the most common verdict, especially if it went unchecked or untreated.
Where do you think they learn this?
Hello! This is Kari (Daniels friend from the documentary) I do want to say that you did an AMAZING JOB. Sierra literally looked at us one day and told us she didn’t have feelings, that she just mocks what everyone else is doing. We all laughed it off..sure enough…
Sometimes Children at even a young age need to be looked at VERY closely. A Woman said her SIX year old Niece saw a piece of jewelry and straight up asked her,"Who gets this jewelry when you die?" 😱The Aunt was automatically freaked out and NEVER let her Niece come to her house again after that CREEPY question. 😱 I don't blame the Aunt. That was a CREEPY question. Besides, MANY 6 year olds don't even know what death is yet, let alone to ask a CREEPY question like that. 😱
They should never get out of prison!

I would say her mother who had seen her grow up understood better what kind of emotions were hiding inside her. Her father didnt and was just happy to have her back, falling into the trap of affirmation, he wanted to show her he loved her so he let her darker side take a stronger hold over her as he fed her narcissism and gave fuel to her darker thoughts, even so much as saying "im willing to die for you" what he meant was that he was willing to surrender his life to save hers, what she heard was "ohh we can kill him and he wont mind very much".
Her father Daniel brought her up- her mom was seeking ambition in politics
you are right, it is daniels fault
I called her out as a psychopath and Narcissist from the beginning. That our father and the mother should feel some fault. She used her children as pawns. Not that child is a monster that should never be released. Min of only 22 years for such a heinous crime is ridiculous. She shall always be a danger to others. Perhaps in 21 years I’ll read if she’s patrolled. Excellent synopsis Dr Grande. Always enjoy your videos.
I learned about this Case last Year. My Personal Thoughts are:
1. The Mother Actively Alienated the Father for Several Years: Parental Alienation.
2.Started during the Affair, continued in Counseling, Tiger allowed this Manipulation. There Seemed to also Be a Fixation with Money: Tiger High End Real Estate. This Youngest Daughter, Sierra, with prior observed Psychological Aspects, learned Manipulation Tactics that lead to the Murder. Not once in the News articles is the Parental Alienation mentioned, but from reading Information that Appeared to Be the Driving Force for Years, eventually leading to Murder committed by this Sierra. Of course the Mother would have him Falsely Arrested, and state that He was willfully Unemployed, Keeping Up with Child Support Payments of $2,300, while her Hubs and Herself Worked in High End Real Estate.
Disgusting Parental Alienation Manipulation Resulting In Tragedy.
The only person loved Mr. Daniel the most is his mother 😢

I don't understand why some teenagers can't think through the potential consequences of their actions.
All she had to do was wait for a couple of years & she would have been able to move wherever & do whatever she wanted.
Thats partly why I find true crime so fascinating. It's hard to imagine how people arrive to these kind of solutions to their problems.
For some, their situation genuinely _is_ awful enough that fleeing is their best chance at not getting killed or worse, but this is not one of those cases. It's yet another incident in which someone who's emotionally immature and might have issues of some sort are angry that they didn't get their way.
We are not talking about a regular teen but a monster. They don't think like regular people.
If she had been smart, she could have convinced her father to buy her an apartment and pay for college too down the road. Or run away--she would still be free, just broke. Just saying...
Teenagers don’t have fully developed brains. They often make terrible decisions
There seems to be be so many horrible, selfish, narcissistic young people around these days, who choose to be bad just for the sake of it. And they know they can get away with it, if they are under age 😣 And I live in Australia.

Poor Daniel 😢 Thank you for another searching analysis, Dr Grande ❤
Holy shit.. imagine being a flawed (but not evil man) and having your own daughter murder you, while your wife leaves you. He went out sad, rest in peace, Daniel.
MGTOW
Man, the poor guy couldn’t get a break. Faithless wife and homicidal daughter.
Thanks for another thought-provoking video, Dr. Grande; I enjoy your content so much. Your calm voice must be soothing to your patients.
These two monsters deserve the same level of disregard and violence they laughingly dished out. I’m not a very good person, but allowing them to live seems like a disservice to humanity and an insult to the only true victim in this whole story, her father.
You always never fail to tell a good educational story.
Keep it up Dr. 👍🇬🇧
He was a stay at home dad but the state still gave the mom custody... what a fucked up system.
She did what they all do to gain custody! It's the era of the 'Harpy.'
The court system completely failed and faulted Daniel. What a train wreck. Extremely sad case and horrible end to his short life. His (ex) wife was so cruel, his daughter so callous. They completely disrespected him as a person and denied him his dignity. Even the judge.
Horrifying. Not saying Daniel was a perfect guy, but this showcases how manipulated divorce courts and child custody laws are. If he was "willfully unemployed" how is he expected to pay 2300k/month. And if she was so concerned then why didnt she pay? I feel the mother manupulated Sierra wnd turned her against the father. Happens all the time unfortunately.
Wow! That’s cold and so cruel 😢 What’s happening to our kids 😭
There were always psychopaths in the world. We just didn't know about them before the internet.
They are no longer tolerating abuse from parents and teachers.🤗
Two crimes here. $2,300 month in child support???
The mother should never have been allowed to take the kids out of state
i just love Dr Grande’s calm demeanor as he presents fact driven opinions. great stuff doc
😢 I can’t stop tearing each time I hear or think about this tragic story. Daniel tried his best to do the right thing for his family but ended up becoming their victim. And he never gave up on his faith, in spite going through hell. May God grant his soul eternal rest, peace and happiness!
And after being a victim of his wife, too. I couldn't imagine moving to get a better job to provide for my wife, she wants to then get a job and starts cheating....Then wants 2.5k a month child support! JFC that's a crazy amount for half the money to raise a child..Then is killed by his daughter who uses sex as her way to get her bf to kill him. So horrible. I hope both those women go to Hell.
Geez. That guy was handsome and didnt seem too terribly crazy. I mean most people would not act perfect if thier spouse cheated. He just wanted to be loved by someone. In the end he had no one. Very sad.
@CancelledOpinion maybe your comment makes no sense?
@CancelledOpinion wth does that mean?
We don’t know her side of the story. She remarried and stayed that way. He remarried and divorced a second time. He seemed to have some maturity issues for sure. Intentionally under employed to avoid paying to support his kids? That doesn’t seem like decent behavior to me. I don’t blame the woman for divorcing him when we don’t know why she was as driven to end the relationship. Her affair was wrong, but it doesn’t mean that the husband was not also partly to blame for the breakdown of the relationship
@@vicvega3614 In the beginning of the video, he starts his relationship with his future wife while she was still in high school, and he was 5 years older.
Really? You think you can tell who someone is by how good-looking they are? This dude was twice divorced and purposefully stingy with the child support. He doesn't sound so hot to me.
I remember when this story first broke, it doesn’t haunt me but it reminds me what’s out there. It was surprising to hear about and terrifying.
The family look so loving but you never know what’s going on behind closed doors.
Thanks Dr. Todd for the analysis.
Gotta tell you Doc. When I first clicked on a video of yours I was very sceptical about your calm voice and demeanor...glad I stuck around .,your channel content is amazing...👍
Good evening Dr Grande, excellent analysis. Sierra is the classic Bad Seed. As always I learn something new from your videos.
Have a wonderful evening
Bad seed from her mother.
@@torratrefet2855 you beat me to the punch there, i 100% agree
He supports her career but then she have affair because she thinks he is lazy because he committed to take care of family. What these kind of women want more. If he don't support then she says he don't support her, when he supports her career then she thinks he is less than her being a stay at home dad.
This one left me speechless. Murdered for just being a loving father by your own daughter. I think there was more going on than just impulsive behavior.
Thank you Dr. Grande! Much admiration! 🙏🏼
Why do you make murder cases sound so soothing? A murder case you could fall asleep to...
I feel so bad for Daniel, he was such a good dad from what we've seen. He really did have Sierra's best interest at heart. He only forbid her to see her boyfriend bc the pair planned to rob their families and run off. Him and the other parents noticed that their kids don't have the best influence on each other so they did the right thing and tried to stop it. And he was trying to be understanding with Sierra and her feelings too. But I fear that these two young people were too far gone at that point. My heart goes out for Daniel's family and friends, especially for his mom and his other two kids who have not only lost their father but their sister too...and found out that their little sister was a horrible person.
really, the weirdo guy taking their wife's clothes off against their will? outstanding citizen. everyone involved in this was below average.
Thanks for giving us an example of cognitive empathy vs affective empathy and expanding on cluster B personalities ie antisocial and narcissism.
What a horrible situation. Daniel obviously realized that the boyfriend was bad news. So disappointing that his daughter sank so low as to murder the father who supported her. I do hope she grows in maturity and spirituality so she can make amends. I am, however, learning about narcissism and psychopathy and maybe this will never happen for her.
Definitely not. Her *likely* personality disordered ass will rot in jail… Zero empathy and massive ego defenses
I don't wish anything but despair for people like her. I never understood the wish for redemption for monsters. They get to eventually make amends and take a weight off their shoulders while their victims suffer the ultimate finality at their lowest, in pain, fear and agony? Never seemed like justice to me.
@@publiusventidiusbassus1232 Yes, I understand. Karma does have a way of coming back around.
I didn't recognize who u were analyzing until the "day 3 after murdering somebody." THANK U SOOOOO MUCH DOC!!!!!
Another great analysis! Thanks! I'm always amazed when a son or daughter feels they have to kill their parent(s) because they want to do something...like have a lot of sex. It's so senseless. BTW-I always feel like you are messing with my head with how you often move your cacti around especially when you put at least one of them very, very close tot he edge of table LOL!
If she couldn't love her dad after all the years, how would she have been able to love anyone else. Including the guy she eloped with
@CancelledOpinion oh here you are again. I'm starting to see why your opinions get cancelled.
Poor Man. These teenagers are out of control. Just in case I needed More reasons to remain childless 😂
Just over 11 months sober 🥰😊 it's been a wild journey ❤
Thank you for entraintaining and educating us
You spare myself to leave the same comment. At least I can sleep good fearlessly 💁😏
MIldred Pierce : "Mother, it's your fault that I'm the way I am."
Your way divides our heads from our hearts so well.
So many cases of kids committing parricide and familicide. I cannot count how many times I was angry with my parents growing up but I never thought to lay a hand on them, let alone injure or kill them.
I got locked up once my 1st psychiatric question why did you want too kill your dad ?I didn't never did I wanted step mom ...still do she tried too kill me twice I was like I'm in a mental ward with false charges labeled antisocial forever I really hate psychology .
There's a difference between being angry with your parents and being physically and mentally abused by them. I'm not saying it's a excuse for murder I'm just saying most people don't wanna think about both sides. Child abuse is major problem. This case stinks of it that's just my opinion.
@@tommymack4372 Your statement has nothing to do with this girl or her crime. She was neither mentally nor physically abused. As Dr. Grande stated she was a narcissistic sociopath who manipulated her father and normally got away with it. Once Daniel found out about her boyfriend being older and other frightening factors of their relationship, he put an end to it. She was a selfish brat who did not like being told no, so she and her boyfriend murdered him. There was also no remorse from her about her father's murder. She is right where she needs to be.
@@YouFilthyAnimal74 how do you know he wasn't abusive to her ?? That's probably why there was no remorse. What Dr grande said was just his opinion. She wasn't his patient. He may be right I just don't think so. There's more to the story there always is. You can have your opinion
@@tommymack4372 I'm sure if he would have abused her, she would have tried to use that as a defense as to why she murdered him or her lawyers would have tried and it would be public knowledge at this point. None of that has ever been said about Daniel and it's pretty crappy to assume that when you've heard no such thing about him. He was the victim, not her.
Dr. G never shies away from taking on the tough cases.
If a parent recognises these traits in their teen, is there anything they can do about it? Or is it just a matter of protecting others at that point?
As stated in the video, those traits did not "manifest" out of nowhere. Children are like sponges. They absorb anything from their parents.
@@asyabellia6791 my question is what can be done about it if/when those traits are recognised.
30 days in the hospital to get their diagnoses and medications right. @@emmaponymous
Just a reminder, I'm not diagnosing anybody in this video; only speculating about a situation where a sixteen-year-old ventilates her father like this.
Put a spoiler warning before posting stuff like this. I didn't want to know until he told me.

Such a gruesome and chilling case!
I could barely wait for your thoughts on this one!
Brilliant video, Dr. Grande! ♡♡
Her mother immediately suspected foul play as soon as she couldn't reach her ex by phone. As such I don't think impulsiveness played a role here. Sierra was obviously showing signs of dangerous violent behavior while she still lived with her mother. This appears to be a case of a dangerous child whom the parents failed to deal with. I don't know if they sought medical intervention and it didn't work or if they tried to control her through discipline. ( which would have been a mistake, discipline works on rebellious teens not dangerous ones ) But the point is they knew their daughter was capable of violent acts and failed to fix her ( possible nothing could be done ) and failed to protect themselves.
Wasn't it the grandmother who called and got suspicious?
Yes it was Daniel’s mother
Elizabeth advocated morality as a senator while being an adulteress.
Let that be a lesson to you guys. Don't get cheated on and left by your wife, or else your kid will stab you to death
Too true.
MGTOW sounds better and better each day
He was disrespected by the mother, that destroys families by messing up the kids
Also, don't pull your wife's pants down during an argument, as this will be used against you in a court of law to be judged by a jury of your peers.
@@gold707786what you say is true. But in this case it's only her words against his. She could go full "gone girl" do it to herself than present it to the law because she knows that enough to make her wins.
Good diagnosis, Dr. G.
It's hard to assess really who in the end did the greater job in generating the idea of getting rid of Daniel. It very well could have been the older Guerrero just because he wasn't related or because men in general have a greater tendency to involve themselves in physical violence. It makes absolutely sense that Guerrero himself has traits of the dark triad. Nobody 'sane' would follow through in such a case I think.
Just wanted to say, still and always impressed with your quality of videos and analysis... why do I think that your "just a theory" is exactly how this thing happened? This case doesn't even have a Wikipedia page, but here you are unraveling it all (and always attending to the legal theories with accuracy, too!) Keep it up, Doctor Grande!
I grew up with very neglectful/absent parents. At 15/16yo, the only thing I wanted was to have a father like Daniel. May this amazing man rest in peace ❤
As always, thanks, Doc!
All cases of murder disgust me, but the ones that disgust me the most are when children kill loving parents who have done nothing wrong towards them. There are so many kids and even adults that wish that they had loving, caring, and supportive parents. Not only do these murderers never appreciate what they have, but they betray their parents in the worst way possible. You really have to be the scum of the earth to be able to do that
How do you know the father “did nothing wrong”? Not all parents are decent. And I’m more disgusted with the parents that kill their innocent children.
@@heav2582 I'm talking about the cases where the parents actually were good parents, not the cases where they were abusive pieces of shit who terrorised their kids. I've run into so many true crime cases where there's proof of the parents being really supportive, forgiving, and caring yet they still get killed my their kids.
And yeah parents killing their kids also disgusts me, a lot! But there's something about killing someone who has sacrificed so much to provide you a good life that gets a rise out of me. Not saying that it's worse than killing your kid - I think that they're both just as awful. Child killers also get my blood boiling
@@lauraanderson8785There can also be caring and good parents in the eyes of society but in the intimacy of their home they are not so. Some parents are good providers or even spend time with their children but at times they can still take advantage of their youth and rape them. We can't tell for sure this was not such a case. There is not sufficient evidence that this was not a case of abuse and the girl had a degree of resentment towards her father. Her boyfriend fueled that resentment to use her body as well. Her brain was not entirely matured to be able to process what has happened and then she may have been influenced to kill her father by that boyfriend who was a psychopath as well.
@@mon_ange333mony4This doesn't justify her actions, no parent is perfect. I hope your children don't betray you one because they think you slighted them in one way.
@@heav2582 fella, it's a teenage female. Even mature ones can't think logically. Do you honestly think she needed any reason to kill him?
