I've kayaked hundreds of times in my life. The drain plug does not make any difference. If you are in a storm and waves are getting into your kayak, the drain hole is on the top of the kayak it will not cause the water to drain. That isn't what it is there for. Its only to drain the kayak by holding it up when you are on land. It doesn't function to drain the kayak while you are sitting in it. The amount of water coming in from waves is magnitudes higher than any water that could get into the drain hole. Whether the paddle floats or not would not save you from drowning in a bad storm, if you don't know how to swim, or if you are intoxicated. I agree with Dr Grande that this was an accident, not a murder. Even if the woman was capable of saving him from drowning, failing to do so would not be murder. She could have been too scared or concerned with her own survival to do anything to help him. It would be like being charged with murder because you didn't fight a bear to save someone else from getting eaten. The investigators did the wrong thing and coerced her into a false confession under the stress and manipulation of eleven hours of anguished interrogation. The judge did the wrong thing by considering her guilty based on her personality and not any credible evidence. Justice was not served in this case.
I know. The storage on a kayak is limited, and he chose alcohol with an ABV too low to act as a flotation device. That set the stage for failure in an event that he needed to rescue the sinking brewskies while doublefisting the survivors before saving himself. Perhaps he was counting on the watered-down beers to bloat him up, and miscalculated the net negative flotation effect of piss retention.
@@OGitGirlJess Not dieing in water is literally a factor of A) Get your mouth above water one time, and B) Inflate your lungs completely, so that you can C) Float calmly and figure out how to unfuck your situation. Granted, I've seen videos of refugees that seem to not understand this, even though every human is literally born with a "Dive reflex (nose and throat closes without command, to prevent breathing water)" and a rudimentary "Doggy Paddle" swimming technique. They just... kinda... doggypaddle on their side, with their heads below water. It's really weird. I would think that anyone that kayaks would have the prerequisites of not being afraid of water, and being able to successfully doggypaddle nailed down though. The situation, as presented, is fishy.
@@buckstarchaser2376 Well yes I understand your point here completely. And, yes you’re pretty much spot on. Humans like dogs are born with an instinctive drive in them to survive. “Fight or flight”, “sink or swim”, the latter being literal. However, we do see people drown. After working many, many years as a life guard and after studying far more than my share of human behavior patterns through sociology, psychology, psychiatry, and human pathology courses in both undergrad and grad school I can tell you that the human brain is so damn complex and so deeply wired that we can not trust it to always do the right thing in the right situations. It’s crazy because it (our brain) ABSOLUTELY knows the right thing to do but at the exact moment of impact (the big moment that so much is riding on) it diverts and sends you full force ahead in to another direction. It’s just like you said about refugees who almost look like they just jump in the water and give up. It’s the same thing when a baby drowns in a tub that has 1/2 an inch of water in it. With the refugee; when the moment they’ve been waiting for their whole life finally presents itself and the two choices are A. Swim like you’ve never swam before, get to the other side of this river, you already have a big head start on them & once you make it you will be free for life or B. Do nothing like always before and remain a captive in your own land. Sooooooo they jump in to the water and every rational bone in their body packs up in to a duffle bag like “Welp, I’m out, been nice knowing you!” They are completely and irrationally overcome by fear and all of their hopes and dreams go completely out of the window because all they can think about is how damn scary this water they are submerged in is! The same water they have spent their whole life playing in, fishing in, swimming in since age 3 or 4. Same thing with a baby in a bath tub with hardly any water. They will sit there all day & laugh & think it’s funny to stick their head under then come back up but as soon as mommy turns her back for one second and they don’t have an audience they completely forget what they were doing that made everyone laugh. They forget that their supposed to raise their head up, and far too often they die or suffer severe brain damage because of ridiculous incidents just like this. 😔💔😔
Why is it bad to kayak in the afternoon? It was in late April, so the sun wouldn’t even set until after 8:30… Factor in about 45 minutes after before it actually becomes dark and that’s plenty of time to paddle over and come back before it gets dark
It never ceases to amaze me no matter how many times people hear “NEVER talk to the police” they TALK to the police!! What the hell!! What’s so hard about saying “I want a lawyer.”
@@postal_the_clown Exactly! If you’re guilty they’ll more than likely get you. And if you’re innocent they might trick you into a false confession. It’s a lose-lose situation. People who wish to cooperate with the police can easily do so with a lawyer at their side.
For many people that have never been in trouble with the Police they do not realise that they will be a bunch of duplicitous, lying aholes to get a confession. "We just like you to come down to the station for a chat and give us your side of the story", "yeah don't worry you aren't in trouble we just want to ask you a few questions so we can, clear things up, no you don't need a lawyer"... trust me never speak to the Police without a lawyer no matter how innocent you are because they have targets to hit and many of them aren't looking for the truth they are looking for a suspect and a case they can prosecute. The real bad apples will withhold evidence or even tamper with it to get a conviction. In the eyes of the Police I don't think the adage is "innocent until proven guilty" and more well "everyone is guilty of something".

It does seem manipulative what the whites woman is doing. But when someone seems to be having a psychotic episode maybe it’s worthwhile to ask “what am I hearing her say”. I think she is saying that she is having her life destroyed and was falsely accused and verbally abused with a staging and framing game and it is terrorism to be filmed with someone who is willing to film and play the victim after provoking and behaving in an angry and threatening way. The black woman excuses this blatant in your face filming and hostile commentary by saying that she is dealing with racist police and systemic racism. This seems like a political move and an excuse and justification for very extreme behavior. She also does snot seem to self reflect or to maintain reflective functioning. The white woman seems to have been from the beginning an object in her fantasy drama. Like a spoiled child she screams “abuse!” And directs hatred and abuse at the white woman for shopping next to her for panties. She seems to believe this is wrong and yet she does not engage in a discussion about the original and central point. Everyone doesn’t go by this rule and it seems to be a rule that may be moving the goal posts or double standards. It gives perceptions of Harrassment and discrimination to some people. She plays the victim and makes a scene and then when the white woman calls for security she pulls a camera and flips the script. Or did the white woman truly behave in the aggressive or rude behavior she claims she did? The whites woman, now terrified she is going to be destructively defamed, instinctively tries to block the phone recording. This is distorted into an “assault” with really catty taunting. At the same time you can identify with the black woman and see that the whites woman seems to feel entitled to physically aggress. And the fact she is being filmed now shows her up for that attitude. It could be the black woman is parenting the white woman in a way she has not been parented and does not kow tow to the sense of entitlement the white woman seems to have. The white woman could also be playing mentally ill with an attitude of win lose in a zero sum game. Both may have a history of confusing and frustrating experiences that inform their present behavior. It is a shame they cannot talk things out like mature adults. Neither one maintains functional and mature behavior. They seem to have different rules and are unable to share their beliefs in any kind of mutual dialogue. Both are going to extremes in their thinking and behavior and communication. Both could benefit from anger management and communication education. It is possible the black woman is the most prejudiced. She is assuming that she will not get a fair shake and that she is dealing with evil racist monsters. This attitude can make a person very hypersensitive and rigid in her approach.
Police are allowed to lie to you, short of explicitly promising a particular legal outcome in exchange for a confession. But the Good Cop Bad Cop game, calling interrogation "therapy," invoking God, etc., all is permitted. I wish people knew. :/
She grew up in Europe with a police officer father- there's very different rules for cops there ESPECIALLY around civilians' rights,& doubly so with interrogations - so I'd bet with her having little education, she thought things were similar to where she grew up & didnt know about cops being able to lie
One of the first rules of kayaking: ALWAYS wear a life jacket! It would be really hard to prove that anyone killed him because the kayaking mistakes mentioned have been made by alot of people, including leaving the drain plug out. Would be interesting to know what kind of kayak he was in. Certain kayaks are not meant for certain situations.
Also, what they're describing here is NOT a drain plug, which opens to the inside of the kayak's hull and it would be impossible to run a strap through to tie to your roof rack. What they're describing are plugs that go through the kayak but because they don't open into the hull, make no difference to the buoyancy. These holes are to put the bars from a trolly through. I don't bother with these plugs.
There are the tie down straps with a metal u shape at the end, but seems like the way described it would be like your more accurate version. So it might be the police making a mistake, which they often do, but one would think they would be better.
Yeah, the doc got it wrong on this one. I read the book on this case. She's guilty as sin! They found out she deliberately removed the drain plug so the kiyak would sink. She also made sure he didn't have a life jacket among other things. I'm surprised he came up with this conclusion when there was so much evidence to convict her.
@@jenniferlawrence9473 what evidence did the book use to reach the conclusion she deliberately removed the drain plug? Also I don't see how you can make sure a fully grown adult didn't have a jacket? Did she like, convince him not to wear one? And even if she did how does that make her responsible for his decision to enter the Kayak without one? And how does the book even know she did do whatever to make sure he didn't have a jacket? And why would that even matter in this case? again, he was a fully grown adult... Sorry that was a lot of question... it just makes no sense to me as of now.
As someone who owns three different kinds of kayaks and goes kayaking several times a year in different conditions, I can say that this story is totally ridiculous. She should have NEVER been charged.
I loved the comment about how drinking, smoking, eating fast food and kayaking in inclement weather are definitely signs of wanting to live a long life.
Great analysis Dr Grande. Listening to your analysis ,l don't particularly like the woman. But l certainly don't believe she murdered him . He took to many risks ,and this led to his demise. Thank you Dr Grande, you are the best.
Dr. Grande not only do you produce fascinating informative and well researched content but you do it on such a regular basis that I don’t know how you function. Respect
"Usually the problem the police have is that they do have a murder but don't have a confession"... Thank You Dr. Grande for the brilliant and detailed analysis.
I agree with Dr. Grande. I watched a special on this case and followed it a bit since. I felt she was innocent. She’s an odd one, but nobody has the right to tell another how to grieve, and an 11 hour interrogation?!
It takes some real skill to not only come up with these subtle one liners but to then be able to drop them with a straight face. He must be impossible to live with.
You’re thoughts, usually, either align with , OR shape/influence/persuade my own. But your summations are brilliantly presented,; your words well thought, organized, constructed and spoken , it blows my mind! How do you not ramble or babble, , but keep things on course, short + sweet?
Another amazing and informative analysis Dr. G! I think this is my new favorite video of yours! I remember this case: I watched it on network TV and I recall truly believing in Angelika's innocence. I agree with your input, I think culture differences and perhaps language barrier, too, had a lot to do with Angelika's false confession. I'm so happy to hear that she is out of prison. I hope she is doing well 💞. Love you Dr. Grande and love your channel and content. I've subscribed to your podcast channel and hoping to catch up on your videos on there once my son starts school and I'll have a little extra time to binge watch you 🥰😚❤️.
EVERR DAY @ 5PM I KNOW THERE'S GONNA BE A BRAND SPANKING NEW VIDEO BY DR GRANDE. AND THAT'S WHEN I KNOW I WILL HAVE A GREAT REST OF MY DAY. GOD BLESS YOU SIR!
@ Dr. Grande and community… I was not in the mood for laughter until Dr. Grande showed up on the scene today but… Is this killer up a creek without a paddle or was it really a kayak? Lol Thanks ❤️🤔🇺🇸🌎❤️🩹✊😜😂🕳
@@JustDr.S that lifejacket was his own fault. (No matter how good at swimming you think you are) you still need a life jacket when on a boat in the water. Anything can happen.
Poor woman sounds like she had no education, no worldly knowledge, no common sense, no direction in her life, very few human values, as though she had little parental guidance as a child. I wonder how many people are like her in the world.
I saw this on 20/20. The woman was not normal. I was wondering why the guy wanted to be with her. Not victim blaming, but just thinking he could have been more cautious as she seemed very childish (childlike). I don't think she could have been a rescuer to him.
Hi Gr. Grande, I haven’t watched your channel for about a month. I was amused by my slight shock from the changed opening speech regarding the links etc... I have heard the old one so many times that I did not realize it got branded into my memory :) Good luck with the podcast!
If you've done any kayaking before, I think you can see that it would be pretty difficult to use it as an element of a sabotage/murder without some really careful planning and a bunch of lucky factors. In many rivers it's possible to swim to the shore if something goes wrong with your kayak and you begin taking on water (unless you're in open water, which they weren't). It's also unlikely that a woman could overpower a male and grab his paddle from him, and this isn't even a reliable way of causing someone to sink, they might just continue to float and eventually ground themselves. I wonder if the guy was drinking before kayaking.
When asked the question "what do you think, when you hear hoofbeats?" Some will answer horses, others guess it's zebras. Most police officers will say it's a calm killer doing a series of cart wheels...and would do anything to prove they were right. 🥴 !!! I love what you've done to your studio. Esp. for long time fans like me, it gives it that cosy vibe that fits the familiarity of your voice. Very nice, Dr. Grande. Night all, Bye.
I love that we not only get the analysis of the crime, but music and lyrical interpretation as well. 😂😂😂I love “Hotel California”, I mean, who doesn’t??? 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ Thank you Dr. Grande! You have no idea how much your videos help me and lift my spirits. Hope you and yours have a wonderful weekend!! 😊
OMG! A NEW LAMP! Getting things snazzier and snazzier every day; awesomeness! 🤩 Now, how about a suggestion. *WALL ART, Doc, WALL ART!* I think something "mid-mod" would be perfect! Anyhoo, thanks, as always, for another entertaining and informative video! Amy xo
Very interesting case and such a good analysis, Dr. Grande. You made so many good points, a lot of enjoyable humor and as always thought provoking. Thank you.
Reminds me of a case where a man was charged with killing his friend when they were out on a boat, later it was supported that the victims injuries were probably caused by the current carrying him away. The "confession" also came after hours of interrogation where you can see the police feeding the poor guy the answers they want. Luckily this was shown to the jury. The case was on forensic files. Always get a lawyer!
I just love your channel Dr. Grande. Clear, concise, not full of needless facts! I am so happy to have accidentally found this cite. I have to get more people Again, thank you 😅
He had no life jacket, left out a plug, was drinking and kayaking in bad weather - why is she still convicted with second degree murder? It feels like, she was just "over" after 11 hours of interogation. They thought it is fair strategy to "break" her, which is really f*cked up.
*So lemme ask you this, please. I like kayaking at times, but am not super experienced. Many kayaks I have used have had so much foam inside them, that they wouldn't sink even if overturned and filled with water. I know there are many made differently, but do you think one could drown easily if they had hold of a kayak? His cause of death was drowning, not hypothermia. This makes me wonder...(also, thank you for your input!)*
My main memory was that she was VERY concerned about feeding her cat. I don’t have a pet right now but if I did, I might eventually say whatever they wanted to hear to get home to feed it.
I think this is the first time I have seen someone say that she was innocent.. I don't know what it is about this case, but It always rubbed me wrong. I don't think she was guilty of murder, either.
My nordic grandpa literally called me a crybaby when I was a kid, because I'd cry after my half-sister beat on me. Yes, tears and weakness are not cool even if you're a girl. (I love my grandpa, but he really was of that culture). I don't know if they're still like that, but I can attest to it being like that in the past.
I love 💕 Dr. Grande's sense of humor. I don't think 🤔 she's legally responsible for his death. However, her lack of basic care, once she realized he was in trouble, makes her morally culpable. Sadly, this unfortunate accident will have significant consequences on her life.
Dr. Grande is going to get me into trouble for laughing so early in the morning. Hotel California will be noted as an inappropriate song. 💀 I love this channel, it takes a special person to somehow get me to laugh whilst hearing true crime and remaining classy.
I thought you might have a Maryland accent and I looked you up and read that you're from Delaware.. I wasn't far off! :) 🤗 I just found your videos not long ago and love them.. subscribed.
Eileen UK. DR. Grande the serial killer Eric Edgar Cooke he was named The Night Caller it happened in Perth Australia in the 1950s and 60s I would really love your analysis on this there is no one else could do better than you. Thank you 🙏 can’t wait for your next videos. 💙
She didn't do it. They wanted to blame someone for the accidental drowning. Eastern European and Russian people are raised to not cry or show emotions like we do and they see it as weakness. Putin's people just talked about this recently.

Or did the white woman truly behave in the aggressive or rude behavior she claims she did? The whites woman, now terrified she is going to be destructively defamed, instinctively tries to block the phone recording. This is distorted into an “assault” with really catty taunting. At the same time you can identify with the black woman and see that the whites woman seems to feel entitled to physically aggress. And the fact she is being filmed now shows her up for that attitude. It could be the black woman is parenting the white woman in a way she has not been parented and does not kow tow to the sense of entitlement the white woman seems to have. The white woman could also be playing mentally ill with an attitude of win lose in a zero sum game. Both may have a history of confusing and frustrating experiences that inform their present behavior. It is a shame they cannot talk things out like mature adults. Neither one maintains functional and mature behavior. They seem to have different rules and are unable to share their beliefs in any kind of mutual dialogue. Both are going to extremes in their thinking and behavior and communication. Both could benefit from anger management and communication education. It is possible the black woman is the most prejudiced. She is assuming that she will not get a fair shake and that she is dealing with evil racist monsters. This attitude can make a person very hypersensitive and rigid in her approach.
Anything you say may be used in evidence against you but anything we say, true or not, will not be used against us.
@@misstmemrs Maybe some paragraphs will improve readability and come across as less "ranty"..
@@misstmemrs That is definitely the most speculation I have ever seen fit into one paragraph. Thanks for sharing!
Police are allowed to lie to you, short of explicitly promising a particular legal outcome in exchange for a confession. But the Good Cop Bad Cop game, calling interrogation "therapy," invoking God, etc., all is permitted.
I wish people knew. :/
She grew up in Europe with a police officer father- there's very different rules for cops there ESPECIALLY around civilians' rights,& doubly so with interrogations - so I'd bet with her having little education, she thought things were similar to where she grew up & didnt know about cops being able to lie
One of the first rules of kayaking: ALWAYS wear a life jacket! It would be really hard to prove that anyone killed him because the kayaking mistakes mentioned have been made by alot of people, including leaving the drain plug out. Would be interesting to know what kind of kayak he was in. Certain kayaks are not meant for certain situations.
Also, what they're describing here is NOT a drain plug, which opens to the inside of the kayak's hull and it would be impossible to run a strap through to tie to your roof rack.
What they're describing are plugs that go through the kayak but because they don't open into the hull, make no difference to the buoyancy. These holes are to put the bars from a trolly through. I don't bother with these plugs.
There are the tie down straps with a metal u shape at the end, but seems like the way described it would be like your more accurate version. So it might be the police making a mistake, which they often do, but one would think they would be better.
Never speak to police with out an attorney.
... and if the attorney advises you to speak to the police, get another attorney.

I'm thinking never trust someone who tells you they can sense that you're going to die that day.
Yea, that and a subscription to "Modern Bride" if they're not in "the industry."
No, you should definitely trust in this case. She turned out to be right.
Yeah, the doc got it wrong on this one. I read the book on this case. She's guilty as sin! They found out she deliberately removed the drain plug so the kiyak would sink. She also made sure he didn't have a life jacket among other things. I'm surprised he came up with this conclusion when there was so much evidence to convict her.
@@jenniferlawrence9473
what evidence did the book use to reach the conclusion she deliberately removed the drain plug? Also I don't see how you can make sure a fully grown adult didn't have a jacket? Did she like, convince him not to wear one? And even if she did how does that make her responsible for his decision to enter the Kayak without one? And how does the book even know she did do whatever to make sure he didn't have a jacket? And why would that even matter in this case? again, he was a fully grown adult...
Sorry that was a lot of question... it just makes no sense to me as of now.
Never trust a woman like this who has a $550,000 life insurance policy on you.
The first thing you say to the police is "l want a lawyer".
But unless you got your lawyer on the phone already good luck.
"Nothing says 'I want to live a long life' more than drinking, smoking, eating fast food and kayaking in bad weather." 😂
As someone who owns three different kinds of kayaks and goes kayaking several times a year in different conditions, I can say that this story is totally ridiculous. She should have NEVER been charged.
I loved the comment about how drinking, smoking, eating fast food and kayaking in inclement weather are definitely signs of wanting to live a long life.
Great analysis Dr Grande. Listening to your analysis ,l don't particularly like the woman. But l certainly don't believe she murdered him . He took to many risks ,and this led to his demise. Thank you Dr Grande, you are the best.
I so agree with you
Dr. Grande not only do you produce fascinating informative and well researched content but you do it on such a regular basis that I don’t know how you function. Respect
I’m waiting for the video where Dr G says “You can tell she’s guilty just by looking at her.”
Never talk to the police or enter a land war in Asia.
Or order pizza from Dominos or watch reality tv or diagnosis anyone you are not treating.

Along with paying taxes and death
"Usually the problem the police have is that they do have a murder but don't have a confession"... Thank You Dr. Grande for the brilliant and detailed analysis.
Brilliant?
Wow.
I might have to track down this worthless slug and ted bunny her
Got drunk, fell out a kayak, went to a castle and got hypothermia? Standard Scottish weekend, then.
I swear I’ve seen an educational film in high school about not kayaking in bad weather lol. It was right after the ‘speed kills’ film lol
"Dead Right: Blood in the Crosswalk"
thanks for your daily uploads,we are all very grateful
"Vincent was thinking of kicking Angelika... out of his appartment."
I agree with Dr. Grande. I watched a special on this case and followed it a bit since. I felt she was innocent. She’s an odd one, but nobody has the right to tell another how to grieve, and an 11 hour interrogation?!
If I’m ever caught up in a homicide trial please call dr grande for my expert witness
Speculation isn't admissible in court 🤷♀️
no not if if its a female killer he will let them go.
I would love you as my Therapist. You would make me laugh and cheer me up! Keep up the good work.
Well if she did sing ice ice baby, I think the Police would have been in the right to send a swat team
well yes, if she killed it.
I saw that obvious edit after the words “fish-net stockings”. You laughed, didn’t you Dr. Grande?
Yep!
He sure did! I'd love to see him just crack up and laugh like crazy.
It takes some real skill to not only come up with these subtle one liners but to then be able to drop them with a straight face. He must be impossible to live with.
Hahahahaha!!!! 😂😂😂😂 He hearted your comment, too! He must've laughed!!
These videos are fascinating from an analytical / academic standpoint, but it’s truly the dry humor and deadpan delivery for me! 😂
Every court should have a Dr Grande
You’re thoughts, usually, either align with , OR shape/influence/persuade my own. But your summations are brilliantly presented,; your words well thought, organized, constructed and spoken , it blows my mind! How do you not ramble or babble, , but keep things on course, short + sweet?
Another amazing and informative analysis Dr. G! I think this is my new favorite video of yours! I remember this case: I watched it on network TV and I recall truly believing in Angelika's innocence. I agree with your input, I think culture differences and perhaps language barrier, too, had a lot to do with Angelika's false confession. I'm so happy to hear that she is out of prison. I hope she is doing well 💞. Love you Dr. Grande and love your channel and content. I've subscribed to your podcast channel and hoping to catch up on your videos on there once my son starts school and I'll have a little extra time to binge watch you 🥰😚❤️.
EVERR DAY @ 5PM
I KNOW THERE'S GONNA BE A BRAND SPANKING NEW VIDEO BY DR GRANDE.
AND THAT'S WHEN I KNOW I WILL HAVE A GREAT REST OF MY DAY.
GOD BLESS YOU SIR!
Just like clockwork!
The kayak should still float if it fills with water. I know from experience.
*Right?!*
First, the balcony. Now, the kayak. ☠️
Next a cactus
Killer Cactus or Cactus Killer?
@ Dr. Grande and community… I was not in the mood for laughter until Dr. Grande showed up on the scene today but… Is this killer up a creek without a paddle or was it really a kayak? Lol Thanks ❤️🤔🇺🇸🌎❤️🩹✊😜😂🕳
Nope. The deceased was up the creek without a paddle, or life jacket!
Your poochie is so cute! ❤️🐶
@@JustDr.S that lifejacket was his own fault. (No matter how good at swimming you think you are) you still need a life jacket when on a boat in the water. Anything can happen.
@@elavke5441 I absolutely agree. He should have had a PFD on, especially on a kayak. Even if you're a great swimmer, anything can happen on the water.
Poor woman sounds like she had no education, no worldly knowledge, no common sense, no direction in her life, very few human values, as though she had little parental guidance as a child. I wonder how many people are like her in the world.
Well, she now has plenty of railroading experience by the US justice system.
Me, but don't feel too bad, we manage.
No she was just money 💰 hungry
True dat. U funny.
@@lolaadesina5362 agree so far from being a victim in this case.
I saw this on 20/20. The woman was not normal. I was wondering why the guy wanted to be with her. Not victim blaming, but just thinking he could have been more cautious as she seemed very childish (childlike). I don't think she could have been a rescuer to him.
Hi Gr. Grande, I haven’t watched your channel for about a month. I was amused by my slight shock from the changed opening speech regarding the links etc... I have heard the old one so many times that I did not realize it got branded into my memory :) Good luck with the podcast!
What a crazy case.
Hope your day going well Dr Grande!!
Wonderful content as always, Dr! Please could you do an analysis on Leopold and Loeb.
If you've done any kayaking before, I think you can see that it would be pretty difficult to use it as an element of a sabotage/murder without some really careful planning and a bunch of lucky factors. In many rivers it's possible to swim to the shore if something goes wrong with your kayak and you begin taking on water (unless you're in open water, which they weren't). It's also unlikely that a woman could overpower a male and grab his paddle from him, and this isn't even a reliable way of causing someone to sink, they might just continue to float and eventually ground themselves. I wonder if the guy was drinking before kayaking.
I had much the same thought.
Murder doesn't add up! 🤓👍
I'm waiting for "The Cactus Killer", that analysis will be epic.
I think that's what his new novel is about! 😉
🤣🤣🤣 🌵
And that one is personal to doctor grande. Don’t be fuckin with his cacti 😂
maybe a little prickly.
11 hours of mental torture could make most people confess to anything.
Excellent analysis.
When asked the question "what do you think, when you hear hoofbeats?"
Some will answer horses, others guess it's zebras.
Most police officers will say it's a calm killer doing a series of cart wheels...and would do anything to prove they were right. 🥴 !!!
I love what you've done to your studio. Esp. for long time fans like me, it gives it that cosy vibe that fits the familiarity of your voice. Very nice, Dr. Grande. Night all, Bye.
Nitey nite! 🌖
I love that we not only get the analysis of the crime, but music and lyrical interpretation as well. 😂😂😂I love “Hotel California”, I mean, who doesn’t??? 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ Thank you Dr. Grande! You have no idea how much your videos help me and lift my spirits. Hope you and yours have a wonderful weekend!! 😊

@@JiveDadson 😂😂😂 Oh yeah, that’s right. 😂😂😂
Everyday a new video makes my summer vacation a paradise 🙏🏻🍀
Looking good Dr. Grande! Thank you for the daily uploads ☺️
Lola, Ele é Lindo !
Very based analysis 👍
As an experienced kayaker this sounds "normal". The weather can turn conditions lethal easily enough.
Nice to see a video about a case that happened close to my home. Thanks Dr Grande❣️
Fascinating case and the usual incisive analysis by Dr. G.
OMG! A NEW LAMP! Getting things snazzier and snazzier every day; awesomeness! 🤩
Now, how about a suggestion. *WALL ART, Doc, WALL ART!* I think something "mid-mod" would be perfect!
Anyhoo, thanks, as always, for another entertaining and informative video! Amy xo
He is very cagey about adding items. We never know when a new addition will appear! It never takes long for the peanut gallery to comment!🌵🖼🎋🕯
@@bthomson Ain't it the troot! 🤣
If singing "Hotel California" makes a murderer, then you'd have a lot of arrests to make in all the Karaoke-bars in the world.
Very interesting case and such a good analysis, Dr. Grande. You made so many good points, a lot of enjoyable humor and as always thought provoking. Thank you.
Reminds me of a case where a man was charged with killing his friend when they were out on a boat, later it was supported that the victims injuries were probably caused by the current carrying him away. The "confession" also came after hours of interrogation where you can see the police feeding the poor guy the answers they want. Luckily this was shown to the jury. The case was on forensic files. Always get a lawyer!
A documentary I watched a while back made it appear she was totally guilty and his mom accused her of killing her son. She hated her.

I just love your channel Dr. Grande. Clear, concise, not full of needless facts! I am so happy to have accidentally found this cite. I have to get more people Again, thank you 😅
The cops did the job they were hired to do: they protected the insurance companies.
Dr Grande you spoil us
Oh I love your dry humor, Dr. Grande! Thank you for keeping it interesting!
Dr Grande is a machine with the uploads.
A perpetual motion machine!
That is referred to as the "Killer Cartwheel".
Just wanted to say you’re the best Dr G. Really appreciate all the content and time you put into each video, Thank you!!
I missed watching Dr Grande. I have been busy for a few months and this has been exactly what I needed.
Bringing the swat team for ice ice baby😂😂😂Dr Grande I love your channel! Thank you for your analysis!💜💜
Happy Sunday! Thanks for the video.
I'd like to hear more about those 4 plants on the little table over Dr. Grande's left shoulder.
Cactus and Succulents . They are very easy to take care of. Require little water.
And they all have names.
This case is fascinating, and your analysis was spot on!👌🏼
Thank you.❤️
Unrelated- your shirt is very classy, great choice.✨
Rejane - wouldn't you like to see his closet! The rainbow would not be able to compete!
@@bthomson It must be huge closet!😄
🎯
He had no life jacket, left out a plug, was drinking and kayaking in bad weather - why is she still convicted with second degree murder?
It feels like, she was just "over" after 11 hours of interogation. They thought it is fair strategy to "break" her, which is really f*cked up.
Anybody with experience in open water would know that this had to be an accident. The incredible force of the water is impossible to overcome.
I happen to be an avid kayaker so this immediately caught my attention.
*So lemme ask you this, please. I like kayaking at times, but am not super experienced. Many kayaks I have used have had so much foam inside them, that they wouldn't sink even if overturned and filled with water. I know there are many made differently, but do you think one could drown easily if they had hold of a kayak? His cause of death was drowning, not hypothermia. This makes me wonder...(also, thank you for your input!)*
we love you T-Dawg. magnif. video as per
The admiration takes many forms!
Love your uploads and especially your dry humor Dr. Grande! I watch your videos daily from my working hours up to before bed
Good call, Dr. Grande!
Like always, i fell asleep after 3 minutes listening Dr Grande's voice...and he talks about gruesome murders.
Doc ( Dr Grande) you have taken True Crime to another level ❤️😁!!!! 🏆
Another informative video by Dr Grande, with his usual humor I come back for! Keep 'em coming!
I always do appreciate your calm delivery of the stories. :)
This is one of the more fascinating cases. It's a definite must watch!
My main memory was that she was VERY concerned about feeding her cat. I don’t have a pet right now but if I did, I might eventually say whatever they wanted to hear to get home to feed it.
First vid in the morning and the last before bed is from this channel. Keep it up Dr Grande.
I think this is the first time I have seen someone say that she was innocent.. I don't know what it is about this case, but It always rubbed me wrong. I don't think she was guilty of murder, either.
Dr. Grande, you’re too cute! It’s pronounced, “GREN-itch”.
Yes I was just gonna tell him but didn’t wanna hurt his feelings lol
@@lisastewart5885 I hesitated at first but then thought if anyone can take a little constructive criticism it’s Dr. Grande. 😎
Lol green witch 🧙♀️
@ Pagan Grace, @ Lisa Stewart-Right … had to rewind to hear if I misheard Greenwich. Dr. Grande is human after all.
@@YanoPratt Good one-funny…it’s like Louisville, KY or New Orleans are pronounced differently by its residents
My nordic grandpa literally called me a crybaby when I was a kid, because I'd cry after my half-sister beat on me. Yes, tears and weakness are not cool even if you're a girl. (I love my grandpa, but he really was of that culture). I don't know if they're still like that, but I can attest to it being like that in the past.
Dr. Grande can you analyze the case of Colleen Ritzer who was killed by her 14-year old student Philip Chism?
I love 💕 Dr. Grande's sense of humor.
I don't think 🤔 she's legally responsible for his death. However, her lack of basic care, once she realized he was in trouble, makes her morally culpable. Sadly, this unfortunate accident will have significant consequences on her life.
Dr. Grande is going to get me into trouble for laughing so early in the morning. Hotel California will be noted as an inappropriate song. 💀
I love this channel, it takes a special person to somehow get me to laugh whilst hearing true crime and remaining classy.
I thought you might have a Maryland accent and I looked you up and read that you're from Delaware.. I wasn't far off! :) 🤗 I just found your videos not long ago and love them.. subscribed.
Dr. Grande…the best thought provoker on TH-cam! 👏🧠💗
I may have to call cops on you, you slayed me with the “Every Breath You Take” comment! Died laughing, best way to go.
Eileen UK. DR. Grande the serial killer Eric Edgar Cooke he was named The Night Caller it happened in Perth Australia in the 1950s and 60s I would really love your analysis on this there is no one else could do better than you. Thank you 🙏 can’t wait for your next videos. 💙
Amazing Video as Always Dr.!! Thank You Sooo Much!!
She didn't do it. They wanted to blame someone for the accidental drowning. Eastern European and Russian people are raised to not cry or show emotions like we do and they see it as weakness. Putin's people just talked about this recently.
I remember this case, I always thought she was odd but innocent.
"i wanted him dead and now he is" ppl have a soft spot for females and they use it. she wanted him dead and made sure it happened .
Same. It seems some police and prosecutors need to learn that just because someone is unlikeable does not mean they're a murderer.
