It sounds like Phillip had a potentially decent wife that could have lived a relatively normal and happy marriage had Phillip not been a piece of garbage. May she rest in peace.
Agree ,but how come that she didn't know about his bad habits ? He was already a divorced one , he had 3 sons so he was married before. She didn't ask herself why was he a divorced man ? And this man ,why even married her if she had a history of being suicidal after her father's death ? She was vulnerable. Both of them made a huge mistake marrying each other.

@@SloverOfTeuth There are many issues with our justice system. Police are overworked and underfunded.

While the courts themselves are too lenient, preferring community based sentences that do not deter re-offending. The Auckland court building itself is a nightmare for police in particular, as there is very little room for them to work ( paper work etc ), sub standard toilets and showers and little in the way of ventilation. Resulting in police avoiding the place like the plague, and spending the minimal amount of time there possible.

I found it so strange how much the Herald reported on it compared to many other trials. Some murders we hear about it right up to the trial and never hear about it again.
Took the words right out my mouth! I was thinking... why am I learning more pertinent information from Dr. Grande's 14 minute video than the daily RNZ PODCAST
It may have to do with legislation surrounding criminal trials. It's the same lockdown on information in the media here in the UK. I believe it may last until the appeals process is completed but don't quote me on that.
When you love a narcissist, you WILL BE angry and depressed, with zero self esteem. Doesn’t matter who they are to you, just if they’re part of a close relationship. They will destroy you, and love every moment, while assassinating your character, behind your back, so no one will believe you & if you tell people will already believe you’re a spiteful, crazy, liar who’s probably addicted to something. They lie like they breathe. Eventually, death looks damn good because, at least then, they can’t hurt you anymore. THAT is what it’s like to love them, when THEY HATE YOU. Not for any particular reason, they FIND reasons, because they NEED someone to blame, hate, fault and abuse, because that makes they feel BETTER. Hurting YOU, makes them feel powerful & HAPPY. Learn the signs.
As a New Zealander I have been following the case casually. My own conclusions are in perfect alignment with Dr Grande. Theres no way to know for sure if he did it, but even if he didnt, he definitely contributed to his wife's sense of hopelessness. Either way, hes probably going to have to move to Australia, I dont think he'll have to many friends here anymore.

Dear Dr. Grande; I would double dare you to complain to Mrs. Grande about excessive pillow use but I enjoyed your travelogue on Disney Cruises too much.

The police not having a search warrant and collecting evidence illegally which was inadmissible in court is why the jury couldn’t convict him. The police effed this case up from the beginning.
It always makes me laugh with these men who are obviously having a mid life crisis running around after hookers who are only interested till the money runs out . They're like a slot machine - it only comes alive if you put coins in 😂❤
Good evening Dr. Grande! The studio looks great! I was hoping to see Mrs. Grande's Minnie Mouse drawing. It would have fit well with this story in a way.😊
Why did the police go for the "strangulation" theory when this guy was medically-trained, and knew strangulation could be detected forensically. The rope and the belt were decoys, yet why wasn't suffocation cited as the more likely cause of death??
Interesting that the jury believed a meth addict over the evidence that he had killed his wife, her mental illness was a constant and predictable as anxious and depressed for most of her life, his spending spree is consistent with the poor decision making of meth addicts, meth addicts are dangerous as they are often psychotic from sleep deprivation making their behavior unpredictable often murderous rage is their coping skill.
Thank you, Dr. Grande for your analysis. I am the other woman, I wasn't a mistress. I had no idea I was. I was living the life of a full relationship in Australia with Philip. I have suffered coercive control all my life. I thought I had finally found a good man, and he turned out to be the same as all the monsters that I've ever been with and trusted with my love. I am just the same as Pauline. We both loved a sociopath monster hiding in plain sight.
Watch his interview after the verdict. Cat that got the cream…..not grieving husband - I’m not making a diagnosis merely speculating on a situation like this! 😂
She just refused to 👀👁️ Philips side. Her pillow addiction was too much. Aside from the 👀👁️ remark. It is sad how she was feeling. I'm sure he treated her like crap. Gaslighting, etc. Sad especially because he got off the hook.
The judge said to the jury, 'You must base your verdict solely on the evidence presented in this courtroom and the law as I have explained it to you.' Or something similar, and the jury followed the instructions diligently.
I agree, yet so many men go for that look. My ex likes women like that and it really messed with my self esteem. I pondered doing lots of work to myself. But after advice from my loved ones I was adviced against it and said not to ruin my natural beauty and encouraged therapy. Thank goodness for them!. I’m single now, but happy then before when I was in a unhealthy relationship 😊
It's quite surreal hearing one of my favorite UA-camrs talk about where I live ( Auckland ) . It's big news here of course. Pretty controversial as you'd expect. Thanks Dr. Grande! 🙂
Grew up in Auckland and knew one of his sons in the 2000s. Very dissapointed in the outcome, but more so the support his sons are giving him publicly, not sure if they've changed their mind. I sure hope so. It would be very difficult for the sons to reconcile to the fact that their father is a murderer.
Dr Grande, please consider making a video about the Easey Street murders in Melbourne Australia. After 47 years the alleged murderer is now under police custody.
@OkinInc He was hiding in Greece since 2017. Greece refused to extradite him back to Australia. On the 19th of this month he made the mistake to travel to Italy and there he got arrested.
@@despinacharalambous1728 thank you. I had to look into it after reading your post. The fact he “found” the knife and was only 17 when he committed that horrible crime blew me away. Sick POS. Cheers mate.
The overuse of pillows on beds, couches, and other furniture is worthy of the murderous impulses they provoke. There may be no smoking gun in this case, but there may be a smoldering pillow.
It's hard for me to understand how Pauline didn't do better for herself. When you have self respect, you don't accept being unhappy like she did; especially over someone like Philip. It's wild how long people will stay in a situation that isn't right for them.
Madison Ashton also had an affair with Richard Pratt, one of Australia’s richest men at the time. When he died she unsuccessfully sued his estate for assets he allegedly promised her. She was not successful. Please do a vid on that!
God bless this ladys soul. What a beautiful woman. So many of these old men think young girls are out here thirsting after them. Creepy. Every time I think of dating again, I think nope, I'm good.

Please, make a video on drug addicted successful Neurosurgeon who was performing brain surgeries on drugs, hadn't slept for 1 - 4 days. He killed 4 escorts in Sydney.

Yes, what a monster!🥴
She also wore body suits which he had banned her from wearing
Looking up strangulation marks on the body by Philip seals his guilt for me along with the rest.
What do you think Dr Big
Wandering eye not the problem as it is almost automatic for most males. It's when the other bits start to wander too!!!!😅
Polkinghorne...thats a new one.
At first, I thought Dr. Grande said Honkinghorn.
@psychokitty7268- Me too!
But yes, that name. Not since "Mr. Woodcock" has a name said so much.
He really used his polkinghorne too often
@@jaketobias449 Let's not forget Badcocks Furniture stores. That one still amazes me.
Dr. Grande looked like he was gonna crack up after stating the man’s name as Polkinghorne 😅
Why did the police go for the "strangulation" theory when this guy was medically-trained, and knew strangulation could be detected forensically. The rope and the belt were decoys, yet why wasn't suffocation cited as the more likely cause of death??
Interesting that the jury believed a meth addict over the evidence that he had killed his wife, her mental illness was a constant and predictable as anxious and depressed for most of her life, his spending spree is consistent with the poor decision making of meth addicts, meth addicts are dangerous as they are often psychotic from sleep deprivation making their behavior unpredictable often murderous rage is their coping skill.
Just the kind of Dr. who should have his licence to practice revoked.
Thank you, Dr. Grande for your analysis.
I am the other woman, I wasn't a mistress. I had no idea I was. I was living the life of a full relationship in Australia with Philip.
I have suffered coercive control all my life. I thought I had finally found a good man, and he turned out to be the same as all the monsters that I've ever been with and trusted with my love. I am just the same as Pauline. We both loved a sociopath monster hiding in plain sight.
I find this hard to believe if you are who you say. you are.
@@davidboskett5581 why?
Watch his interview after the verdict. Cat that got the cream…..not grieving husband - I’m not making a diagnosis merely speculating on a situation like this! 😂
Thank you for covering this New Zealand trial.
She just refused to 👀👁️ Philips side. Her pillow addiction was too much. Aside from the 👀👁️ remark. It is sad how she was feeling. I'm sure he treated her like crap. Gaslighting, etc. Sad especially because he got off the hook.
The judge said to the jury, 'You must base your verdict solely on the evidence presented in this courtroom and the law as I have explained it to you.' Or something similar, and the jury followed the instructions diligently.
those sex workers would need to pay me before I did anything with them, lip injections and other plastic surgery is not attractive.
Horrible isn't it, I do not remotely understand
@@kingcosworth2643apparently Polkinghorne specifically sought out workers with “chest augmentation”
Very very gross I agree . Don’t they see it in a mirror that it’s awful ?
I agree, yet so many men go for that look. My ex likes women like that and it really messed with my self esteem. I pondered doing lots of work to myself. But after advice from my loved ones I was adviced against it and said not to ruin my natural beauty and encouraged therapy. Thank goodness for them!. I’m single now, but happy then before when I was in a unhealthy relationship 😊
What an interesting business model
This is massive news here in NZ right now.
I think he got away with murder, i makes me sad for Pauline’s family 😢
"overuse of pillows" ..... what a good and caring man he must be ;)
This is just a theory, my opinion. He has been to a Diddy party.
😂😂😂
Madison's facial plastic surgery will not age well
Plastic surgery never does.
It didn't start out well.
It hasn't already, it looks awful
Did not age well... her upper lip is 300% Botox .. she's a nut case.
@@indiaandrews6996 Nose jobs can often age well, if they're done properly.
Even when he was fighting for his freedom, he couldn't help but rant about how angry he made her.
Hard to believe he got off.
O.K. - I win the prize! I figured out the CACTUS THEME!!!!! Dr. G's "DRY" HUMOR!!!!! Your welcome
Dry and sharp ?
It's quite surreal hearing one of my favorite UA-camrs talk about where I live ( Auckland ) . It's big news here of course. Pretty controversial as you'd expect. Thanks Dr. Grande! 🙂
Me too it is great to have Dr Grande's eyes on it !!
@@sueg7174 haha! Yes it's so cool eh!
When I first heard of this incident I thought to myself, 'Hmm, clearly a case for Dr Grande'.
Grew up in Auckland and knew one of his sons in the 2000s. Very dissapointed in the outcome, but more so the support his sons are giving him publicly, not sure if they've changed their mind. I sure hope so. It would be very difficult for the sons to reconcile to the fact that their father is a murderer.
😬 yikes
I guess they dont want to believe their father is a monster.. or dont want to be cut from the will
The Apple doesn't fall far from the tree, I'm sure they'll stick by him
Surely they know what a freak he is?
@@johannawigg6921yes
Subscribed from New Zealand because of this video
I think he is guilty.
Thank you again Dr. Grande.
Another excellent analysis 💎
That decision needs to be appealed. RETRIAL
He's got cash
Crown cannot appeal a jury
@@kingcosworth2643 this!!
Crown has no recourse for an appeal, ugh
The Crown needs to do a better job, and process the evidence properly.
Thank you, Dr. Grande! I appreciate your videos and your analyses!
Poking horn he was using it too much 😩
Thats funny
An emergency operator had to instruct him to untie her? 🤦
What a last name, man, case. They both had major issues. Great analysis again, loved your cruise video yesterday. Thanks Dr G😊🧡🧡
YES, DR. G! Let’s get speculating huh?
Dr Grande, please consider making a video about the Easey Street murders in Melbourne Australia. After 47 years the alleged murderer is now under police custody.
Wow! Thanks for letting us know. Glad to hear they finally got him. 🇳🇿🇦🇺
@OkinInc He was hiding in Greece since 2017. Greece refused to extradite him back to Australia. On the 19th of this month he made the mistake to travel to Italy and there he got arrested.
@@despinacharalambous1728 thank you. I had to look into it after reading your post. The fact he “found” the knife and was only 17 when he committed that horrible crime blew me away. Sick POS. Cheers mate.
Hey there from New Zealand.
Glad to see you covering one of our crazies for a change 😂
❤❤❤❤ love ur work dr grande
One of my favorite channels on UA-cam, you are brilliant Dr Todd ❤
His mistress is so full of plastic that she could easily float on water…….how can an educated guy like this like someone like that?
Meth.
Botox and fillers cheeks and lips. She is hidious. Can’t believe he was found not guilty .crazy
They all do. It’s disgusting and pathetic.
@@boltbolt8038 Lmao. Yes, education doesn't curb the temptation of the fleshpots: it is just as strong in the educated as the uneducated.
Ego
The overuse of pillows on beds, couches, and other furniture is worthy of the murderous impulses they provoke. There may be no smoking gun in this case, but there may be a smoldering pillow.
Awesome comment!
Pillow case?🤔😂
A pillow case is what I think you call a pillow sham. Not sure !
@@blueStarKitt7924
Or bolsters. Do those count too?
Dr G is the GOAT on UA-cam! 🐐💓
It's hard for me to understand how Pauline didn't do better for herself. When you have self respect, you don't accept being unhappy like she did; especially over someone like Philip. It's wild how long people will stay in a situation that isn't right for them.
Money?
Well presented!
For a guy that hates pillows he certainly chose a well-stuffed lady as his side chick
the eyes on the back of the head quote 😂 nice one, Doc!!
Pauline’s depression and anxiety was a result of her husband’s narcissism most likely. And sure doesn’t sound like she killed herself either
i mean, that knot alone screams "after the fact"... how'd they come up with not guilty
Madison Ashton also had an affair with Richard Pratt, one of Australia’s richest men at the time.
When he died she unsuccessfully sued his estate for assets he allegedly promised her.
She was not successful.
Please do a vid on that!
I was RP mistress. It wasn't an affair.
Being on antidepressants for 20 years, that couldn't have been good for her brain.
Nope, they are fairly useless in my experience
Meaning hes innocent?
Its amazing these two had such high profile jobs
is it really, though
Dr Grande is one of the most underrated comedians around. Love the wit and dead pan delivery of those singer one liners! 😂
Complex character? I beg to differ!
God bless this ladys soul. What a beautiful woman. So many of these old men think young girls are out here thirsting after them. Creepy. Every time I think of dating again, I think nope, I'm good.
Why she go in swinger orgies with him an not leave him ?
And these people work in medical system, including my friend (or ex-friend as I try to avoid him) who is an ice addict. The patients of the eye surgeon should take him to court.
Dr.Grande! Please, make a video on drug addicted successful Neurosurgeon who was performing brain surgeries on drugs, hadn't slept for 1 - 4 days. He killed 4 escorts in Sydney.
