It's worth noting that the Ohio state passed "Judy's law" 3 months after her passing in 2017. The legislation was named after her, it imposes longer prison sentences on attackers who intentionally disfigure their victims by using accelerants
Not that I disagree with the aims of such a law, but this seems like a highly specific amendment. I would have hoped that there would be more overarching laws to cover this sort of violation.
@@FireBird7766 I agree. I'm sure they meant well but this is more of a token gesture.
@@FireBird7766 California's Mayhem Law covers Intentional Disfigurement of all types. Perhaps Ohio can follow the Golden State's lead here.
That guy is an Evil Basterd. He Destroyed any chance whatsoever of his rejoining Civilized Society when he set his girl on fire.
@@FireBird7766 It allows prosecutors to add on additional charges to any violent crime that was meant to torture the victim, rather than hoping the judge and the jury they take that into consideration when convicting/sentencing someone.
edit: I should add that I am not a lawyer, it just seems this is the intent.
@@SisypheanRoller Indeed the Ohio Law seems rather Sharply Focused, thus more of a 'Token Gesture', as you explain.
Resource allocation towards the 'Youthful Offender' segment, in order to identify people with a tendency towards Violence, & dealing with these people in an appropriate manner, with Emphasis on Prevention, seems to be called for.
Simply supporting the 'Incarceration Industry', with Lengthened Prison Sentences, would not seem to address the Root Causes of 'Human Malfunctions' which gave rise to terribly tragic instances such as our Subject here. I'd like to see folx begin to Imagine how these could possibly be PREVENTED.
Anyone who sets another person on fire can never be trusted in society again. To think he initially only got 11 years is just ridiculous. That’s one of the most brutal & cold blooded things you could possibly do to someone. She would’ve suffered for the rest of her life if she had survived, meanwhile he would’ve been free within a decade, released back into the world to find another victim. Pathetic.
Amen!!!!!!!
You're exactly right!
I agree! It’s crazy the sentences some of these heinous criminals get!
I agree and he watched her burn what a sicko
I agree
I was surprised to see some people calling Judy's pictures "graphic" when it is clear she is scarred, not freshly burned. I hope we will be able to look at burn victims without revulsion someday. Imagine how she would feel if people asked to be warned before looking at people like her.
Exactly. I commented on that myself. For probably the same reasons you're thinking. 👍
She looks like a hero to me, but kids might not have the life experience to understand that. No need to blow it out of proportion.
It's a guts reaction.
No need to feel offended by that.
She didn't look that bad; I don't understand why anyone would look upon her with revulsion. Maybe too much time spent in cyberspace instead of the real world.
Yes so true
Wait. How is it he would only get 11 years for setting someone on fire? People got more for dealing marijuana! What is wrong with our legal system?
I know right
Archaic laws need changing.
I keep seeing this comment everywhere. Really is the writing on the wall. Our judicial system is fucked
Lawyers
So you agree that people need to get as much time for setting people on fire as they get for dealing marijuana.
Extremely brave of her to testify on lowered meds. She must have been in agony. RIP Judy
Steve-o has said that, out of every ridiculous and painful injury he's had, being badly burned was by FAR the worst and he'd never go through it again. I think of that a lot in these tragic burn abuses.
The fact he was keeping her hooked on drugs while not taking any himself proves he shouldn't ever be released.
fr I feel like he helped her stay addicted bc he knew she wouldn't put herself in prison for drugs by contacting the police about DV
@@SputterbugTrue
I completely agree. I never knew a guy to get a woman addicted who wasn't addicted himself. That is evil personified.
Also the murder part
My father a anesthesiologist who did pain management. He always told me growing up not to use opioids unless I really needed then because “if you have surgery, break a bone or worse get burned, nothing will work” i later found out as a provider myself just how badly drug addicted patients suffer in cases like these. There isn’t enough pain med in the world to help a drug addict in severe pain. Hurts my soul.
years ago I watched a really interesting documentary about a burn victim that instead of using opioids they put the patient under hypnosis.
it worked amazingly, and due to some hypnotic suggestions they healed up way better than any of the doctors thought possible.
Your right I take 80mg of Methadone a day, if I broke a bone or needed pain relief they would need to use ketamine as they wouldn't be able to give me a high enough dose of an opioid as 80mg Methadone is equal to about 300 - 500mg of Morphine.
Well they could eventually but not in an emergency situation, I can take 100mg Diamorphine IV and it does not really do anything no A and E dep is going to give you more than 5 to 10mg at once.
@@stevenewton7787 fentanyl
@@turkeydoctor5546 I mean this in the best and most optimistic way: I feel like this taps into the placebo effect and we haven’t really embraced just how POWERFUL our minds are when it comes to healing ourselves. It’s a mind-body system and should be recognized as such. The “placebo” effect has gotten a sort of negative connotation but, how amazing is it that our bodies actually heal with our minds!!?
I'm around Columbus Ohio. I remember this. I watched her whole testimony from a hospital bed. She got infection after infection and finally died. YEARS OF AGONIZING PAIN & SHE KEPT FIGHTING FOR HER LIFE.
Anyone that drenches another person with accelerant, setting them alight, never again deserves to experience freedom. It's barbaric, inhuman, yet UTTERLY cowardice.
Knowing you are going to die from the painful burns you have, and testifying for your own murder trials. I can't imagine the strength it took.
From all the videos I have learned from Dr. Grande the following:
1. Criminals are not really easy to get along with.
2. Criminals are forever looking to manipulate everyone and everything they encounter. It is a compultion with them. A deep selfishness.
3. They also exhibit some symptoms of the dark triad in varying degrees.
My best wishes to Dr. Grande for shedding a light upon the dark minds of difficult personalities.
Sounds about right!
I was in a house fire two years ago, and was airlifted to hospital with third degree burns on 25% of my body, and was in hospital for 4 months. I was given midazolam and ketamine by the paramedics for sedation, a side effect of which is that it totally messed up my memory, both before and after the fire. I’m surprised, but glad, that Judy was able to effectively give evidence of what happened to her so accurately. I personally only have brief flashes of me being on fire, most particularly the terrible roaring sound of the flames which sounded like a horribly screaming jet engine, being trapped in my bedroom, and intense pain, but very little else.
I was apparently interviewed in hospital by a policeman as a matter of routine, I’m not even sure whether it was on the day I was admitted I was so out of it (the fire was started by an electrical defect). I have a vague memory of being in a park and swinging back and forth on a swing, whilst being asked questions by someone who said they were a policeman but had no face! Obviously I was not on a swing or in a park, and presumably the policeman wasn’t faceless (😱), but that’s how poorly I recollect what was happening to me at the time!
Hello, i hope you are ok now! I lost my apartment in a fire but woke up early enough to escape with very little smoke intoxication. Cannot imagine your road to recovery!
Very brave recounting of your trauma. Awful. Important point that the victim here could recall events after that trauma. Appreciate your insight and sharing your experience. Thanking heaven you survived,
I had an accident that gave me pretty severe burns around 5 years ago, and they gave me ketamine. It was one of the worst experiences of my life, worse than being on fire. I can't believe people take this stuff recreationally.
You were medication naive as they say so the medicine hit you hard. It barely touched her pain.
@@breathnstop In fact as you take the opioids - your muscarinic receptors adapt and grow more receptors to accommodate more opioids - so you need more to hit all of the receptors and receive an effect. This is true of nicotinic receptors too - the reason nicotine is also addictive.
Being burned alive is about the only thing I can think of that might be worse than being eaten alive by a bear.
Yeah fuck that, I’ll take the bear pls
I've been in a house fire. It's a pain that humiliates you. Your brain can't comprehend the pain. Everything except my waist and face got burned so I got lucky. I begged the paramedics to kill me that was when the adrenaline was wearing off
@@trteeerryfse-wy2ww ❤️ I’m sorry you went through that, I hope you’re okay now
16 ounces of cold harmless soda vs a gas can of highly flammable gasoline. Yes Michael, that seems like a valid response doesn’t it? You are a selfish bully. Regardless of the poor choices she made, nobody deserves being burned alive. Life without parole is a just sentence, but no sentence undoes the pain and devastation done to victims of crime.
@@nevelis I am now thank you that means the world to me
Being burned like that is my biggest fear in life. No one deserves that - especially for throwing a soda…
I’m glad you didn’t buy his story of “he lit her cigarette”! That’s the exact excuse my ex husband used when he set me on fire- he said I ran into him while he was holding an open bottle of gas (he had it in a bleach bottle) then he went to light my cigarette and “accidentally” caught me on fire. Our neighbor saw more quickly than her neighbor did and that guy put the flames out, but they did initially question me while I was heavily sedated and I couldn’t tell them what happened until they took me off the morphine and that freaking sucked but they locked him up for 3 years for domestic battery because of the testimony I was able to give. He’s been locked up again twice since then for domestics on others and possession of controlled substances, so I assume he hasn’t gotten his life together since 2006
Omg, more strength to you.
So glad you survived, hon. 💜 The ex-girlfriend of a mate of mine, she was lovely. Her next boyfriend stabbed her and then set her on fire and set the house on fire. She didn't make it. You must have been through hell. I'm so glad you kept going. xxxxx
Wow how badly burned were you? He should not be allowed out after trying to kill you by lighting you on fire.
3 years!? He should have been given 30 years, no parole till then. AND, should have been charged with attempted murder in the first place. The courts suck at providing any type of justice for victims most of the time. Makes me very angry.
He only got 3 years for setting you on fire????
That is preposterous!!
I've never heard of this case before but it's horrific. That poor woman having to suffer like that.
People with poor impulse control are fundamentally dangerous - it’s one of the most important things to teach young children is how to relax and make decisions carefully and control their behavior
What a sick case… had she not gotten ovarian cancer, she wouldn’t have gotten hooked on opioids and wouldn’t have crossed paths with this psycho, perhaps. Isn’t it crazy how one thing or one decision can literally take away your life.
Yes, the OxyContin did her in. Purdue Pharma is/was the maker of that horrendous product. I hope her family has a lawsuit against them. It’s clear this one product ultimately destroyed her life.
It is.
I was thinking this too. The addiction was something she did not actively chose, because she initially used her prescribed, highly addictive, meds. She had bad luck in life.
should sue makers of oxy
@@Johnny-tq9noWell, I don't think we should take away pain meds, or make them more difficult to obtain. Ovarian cancer is agonizing, and patients need some sort of pain relief.
Hard not to get addicted when you're needing heavy doses of pain meds just to function in life.
WOW! Two examples of the extremes of what human beings are capable of in one story.
I deleted my comment because I completely misunderstood what you meant. Some people were making really unpleasant comments on here. Sorry and I totally agree.
@@stardust4225 Intelligently nuanced commentary seems rather rare around here.
@@tealeaflist it's the internet. It will always be disappointing if you spend much time on it lol but I was wrong I misunderstood the comment that was made.
@@stardust4225i don't know what you said but its really good that you are self aware!
I'm not sure I see two _extremes_ in this case, just differing degrees of fecklessness.
Judy had a terrible addiction. And it's an awful fate. She did make awful choices, yes. But nothing Judy did made her deserving of this awful, excruciating fate. I hope she's finally at peace. And may he rot. 🤬
Unfortunately she got addicted after she has ovarian cancer. I'm assuming they gave her optiods for the sergery. And Unfortunately she became addicted. Why I think they should not be offered as easy as they are. And this is from someone who has a chronic pain illness and as a survivor of csa. I'm lucky I'm allergic to most meds so I can't become addicted. But I'm lucky. Most ppl I know who were ever addicted were csa. It's horrific. But the truth
@@iciajay6891 i use Kratom. It saved me..I had been on 7 Rx drugs for pain, including hydrocodone, Klonopin and ultram. I've been off them all since around 2015.
@@iciajay6891 yes my friend is also addicted to pain medication because of nerve damage due to untreated diabetes. He tries to get clean now. And receives a ketamin infusion periodically. It's so sad how so many people were prescribed such dangerous medication. You need to trust medicine but it brought him more difficult problems. You are a very strong person I wish you all best🌺.
Mug shots and court appearance photos are always so revealing and visceral. I can always see their predator face through those cold, dead eyes. Always chills me to the bone.
60 IQ level eyes.
They take mug shots of innocent people too. You're adding something that isn't there or police could just email you mugshots and you could tell them who's guilty without any other information.
wow you can tell ? so Ted Bundy would have no chance ha??? think again!
@@mrazik131 the scariest part is the number of likes her weird comment has!
This is so embarrassingly inaccurate that it truly bothers me that you believe this. I wish I could speak to you and open your eyes to the reality. It's a dangerous thing when we start believing that we can determine a person's behavior and disposition by their outer appearance. This can lower your guard against potential dangers and worst of all...possibly teach other younger and/or naive individuals foolish judgement which could lead to their victimization. I hope you can reevaluate your views and realize the many risks of this mindset...I only listed a couple.
Excellent explanation of the horror and complexity of addictive disease. Thank you l, Dr. Grande.

Add someone who also went through drug recovery and earned my kids back, and knowing first hand how many mothers don't, i have much respect for this woman and it speaks to her character. ❤
As a recovering opioid addict, this hits me hard. The fact that she was in intense agony, without any relief from the pain medication, and she was not going to survive, is just heartbreaking.
For someone to intentionally set a person they supposedly loved ablaze is unconscionable.
You and I both know that with her tolerance levels plus the fact that she was taking her pain meds as prescribed (since they tell you when to take them in the hospital!) she would almost certainly function BETTER with the pain meds and if anything -- she just would not have the same level of clarity without them -- especially if reduced low enough to give her withdrawal symptoms!!! The sick thing is that I'm sure that the providers 'get it,' but they are so scared shitless of getting sued or facing discipline that they would rather willfully leave the patients in their charge in severe pain! I have a very painful connective tissue disease and needed a second spine surgery a couple years back, and they treated my pain better BEFORE the surgery than after it! They also had some very messed-up protocols, such as needing a "7 or higher" on the pain-scale to get your PRESCRIBED MEDS!!! Being that my pain tolerance is through the roof after having a dozen or so major surgeries in my life, plus countless dislocations, I literally need to be either actively passing a kidney stone or dying for my pain level to be a "7 or higher!" I live in a "perpetual 3" plus or minus a point on most days. I even was told once that my "foot couldn't be broken" because I seemed like I wasn't in "enough pain." I explained that I heard it crack, and felt it crack, and that it hurts, but they treated me like crap until the x-rays came back and were very apologetic thereafter. The system sucks, whenever opioids come-up, legal or otherwise, there's simply a stigma that 95% of the providers can't understand and the 5% who do simply won't admit to it! This story is a great example of how sad things can become when at the most extreme! Be well.
@Jay Rose Yes! The whole "pain scale" thing is a ridiculous mess. I barely survived a VHF (viral hemorrhagic fever) and I was in so much pain at the time, even the slight change in air movement whenever someone approached my bed felt like lava melting my skin off. Yet there are people who think a bad cut is "level 10" and that's what goes into their chart.
So heartbreaking. 💔 My condolences to her daughters, family, and loved ones. Rest in peace Judy. 🕊💫
where were they when she abused drugs with a criminal? f u
My ex wife got cancer, and after the surgery she was prescribed Oxys and Fentanyl. She has now graduated to full blown meth addiction. She has since left us for someone she met in rehab, lost custody and hasn’t paid a penny towards child support. This maybe what’s in store for her with the drug addicts she surrounds herself with.
It rarely ends well for them.
I’m so sorry for what this gas done to your family.
Just watched an 8yr old video w/ Dr Grande on how to interpret a post hoc test for stats. I've watched this channel for a few years but I never new he had a math background. What a versatile man!
One requires a knowledge of stats for graduate study and research.
I think both his parents are Phd's.
WTF is this comment?
Is this paid?
I love grande too, but there are some channels that have blind positivity that have nothing to do with the content of the video for some reason.
…I never KNEW… not new.
@@Len-jk4zi relax. People just like this guy
My oldest sister has been a nurse in the burn unit for a few decades. The things she’s seen… she has a heart of gold. You really have to in order to go in there everyday and see the things she does.
God bless her
It would be wonderful if you did a video on how impulse control issues develop and how caregivers can prevent this in their children. Thank you for your consideration. Your perspective was compassionate and induces that in your listeners.
He murdered her in excruciating slow motion and yet she still had compassion for him. 😢
This poor woman. Some of these cases are just so sad. The horrible fates of the people in these murder cases is just so unfair.
You only hurt the ones you love..😂
Do you people realize the level of apathy it takes to set another human being on fire???? This “ man” deserves no less than an eye for an eye!!!
Rest in peace, beautiful Judy ❤ I can’t imagine the strength it took for her to testify without medication when she was in such severe pain
thank you so very much to support my family and also my sister Judy! I felt very happy to hear what you gotta say! thanks for this once again!😀
This is an incredibly tragic end to a beautiful soul and mother of two lovely daughters. I hope that every women who is in an abusive relationship and is contemplating whether or not to leave sees this. Thank you for your sensitive and insightful analysis of this difficult and heartbreaking case❤
Such a very sad situation. Judy showed compassion toward her killer. May she rest in peace.
Thank You Dr. Grande for your poignant and compassionate presentation of this tragic incident. Addiction is not a reflection of a lack of character, endurance, or fortitude. Judy's desire to overcome addiction paled in comparison to the battle she bravely fought to live regardless of her condition. At the end of Judy's journey, and for all that was lost along the way, nothing could strip her of a sense of compassion that was innately within. May God Bless her family and loved ones.
No empathy. No impulse control. Aka yet another Narcissist murderer. smdh.
Poor Judy and her poor daughters 💔
I remember this case. Her bedside pictures were so heartbreaking. There's no excuse for what he did, it was beyond horrible. Great points again. Thanks Dr G😊💚💚
Love your name! That was one of my favorite shows as a little girl and definitely contributed to me being bi lolol.
@@emo_penguin420 Thanks😉⚔️🛡
What a terrible way to die! Her poor children and family 💔. This horrible man should have been in prison for life a long time before he met Judy!!
@@jodiegalloway3614 I agree😑💔
The guy's mental health issues are not an excuse for his behavior, and society needs to be protected from such people.
However, if he receives successful mental health care, he could become a different kind of person, unlikely to commit serious crimes again. In that case, if a careful judicial process determines he is no longer a threat, there is no point in keeping him in jail.
Damn! all that started with an ovary surgery. Crazy how it just takes one moment to put somebody’s life off track
I was a counselor at a methadone clinic and so many of my patients were there because they got addicted to opiates after surgeries.
I have severe back pain due to 5 herniated discs, DDD, and arthritis, and I've always refused to take opiates. I hate being in constant pain but I'm sure I'd hate becoming an addict even more.
Choices mate (in her case, post op). Things don't just 'happen'
This doesn't happen in other countries. Something is wrong in the USA.
@@justnoted2995 The doctor was educated enough to be wiser about that prescription. She may have had a “choice” on paper but we can’t blame people for taking prescribed medicine and let the doctor go Scot-free of responsibility.
Yeah, I highly doubt that. A lot of addiction is rooted in other problems first, and typically started with other legal chemicals first.
This is a crazy case. It happened in my city and I'd never heard about it. Very sad for Judy and her family. 😢
People in abusive relationships still think they love the abusive person and that the abuser loves them. They have lost objectivity through being worn down with trauma.
Such a tragic story on so many levels. Thank you again for your insightful and compassionate expert analysis. The opioid crisis has destroyed so many lives. Addiction and mental health issues are running rampant. Domestic violence gets into this toxic mix. What a mess!
Wow, testimony from beyond the grave. Thanks, as always, Dr. Grande.
imagine being in a coma for 8 months after this. must feel like ur constantly dreaming...or having nightmares
I’m in palliative care (cancer and Ehlers Danlos syndrome)
Due to the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, a genetic illness that affects one’s global connective tissue (imagine tendons and ligaments the strength of cooked spaghetti) and ongoing joint dislocations and subluxations.
There isn’t a time in my life that I remember as pain-free.
I’m on opioids for several years now and use them as a tool, but I often forget to take a dose, which means that I take the forgotten dose when pain reappears. I often forget to take my medicine with me when we are out for several hours, which obviously leads to the same result.
There’s never been an obsession nor a compulsion about my medicine, and that is what addicts can’t understand.
Also, I’ve never experienced a pleasurable “high” from any drugs. I hate being given IV pain meds, as soon as the nurse injects the medicine I feel like I’m on fire internally, my chest burns and I have the sensation of my hair standing on end.
Human genetics is endlessly complex and interesting, especially when genetics meets human behavior.
Why do I not feel a “high” and why don’t I develop an obsession/compulsion over the medicine in my house? I often wonder about that.
My last thoughts go out to Judy, who was so brave in her last moments. May her memory be forever a blessing
His sentence is certainly just, thank you for this balanced yet sensitive analysis. May Judy rest in power 🙏🏼
This is like if Steven King and John Grisham wrote a book together. Unbelievable violence when he burns her. I already knew he would but it was shocking to say the least
My mother has Bullous Pemphigoid and was covered head to toe in giant, painful blisters. She had to be treated in a burn unit, as they were open and excruciating. I have so much compassion for burn victims. It's the worst way I can think 0f to die. This guy deserves to experience THE SAME agony as Judy! 🤬
Nice finish. RIP Judy💐.
The saddest part was the love she still held for this man until her death.
I remember seeing her on the news with her daughters but I had no idea the backstory. This is very unfortunate. So sad. Even protecting him or not being harsh after she suffered.
I know this case. The vile creep that set her on fire is the type of criminal that I always refer to as a [garbage person]. It is unfortunate that the state was not allowed to subject him to third degree burns on 90 percent of his body before sending him to prison for life.
I saw this documentary last night, and it was heartbreaking. I feel so bad for Judy’s family, especially her children. I do think Michael got what he deserved and only avoided the death penalty because Judy didn’t want him put to death, maybe to give him time to turn his life around even though he’d spend the remainder of his life in prison.
What's the title of the documentary if I may ask? Or where could I find it. I can imagine there is so much more to her story.
The Fire that Took Her
Do you know where it's available?
@McLovin2021 Mclovin you know what they say about karma

JUST A THANK YOU TO DR. GRANDE
You have some great quality videos; both technically and content-wise, Dr. Grande. It is so neat to watch you go from the old office to your own thing. You had a few thousand subs then, and focused on various disorders. That is how I found you. I needed any help I could get for Persistent Major Depressive Disorder, GAD, OCD(Trich), and CPTSD. Psilocybin saved me from meeting a sure end, and you now help to infotain millions! And we all LOVE your humour when you get to use it.
Dr.Grande's humor is as dry as a saltine cracker!
It made me feel good to hear you talk about Judy's compassion. I hope she is resting in peace and out of pain. And I hope the creep recognizes someday that she saved his life. But he probably won't.
Awww, Dr. Grande, how can you have sympathy for this guy? He LIT HER ON FIRE.
May Judy RIP. I'm sure that death for her was a relief. As for the coward who did that to her, may he die everyday a lot faster than the rest of us.. I don't share Judy's mercy for him but am somewhat moved by it.
Thank you, Dr Grande. 👍🌹
Gez. That’s freaking horrible. That’s like one of the worst ways to go.
What a sad horrific story 😢 im sitting here feeling my skin tingle inagining how awful that was....how do people do such evil things to another ???
She was a mumma and a daughter and didnt deserve that ....super sad one Dr G ....agree about the BF analysis ...ughhh just awful all round tragedy
the title gave me shivers. so much tragedy
I haven't watched the documentary but from Dr Grande's explanation this sounds like a classic case of domestic abuse/violence. It's all about power and control. So sad to hear how she suffered 💔
This is a truly tragic story. Dr Grande you are very compassionate. This is truly beautiful.
Goosebumps wigh the last sentence.
Low self esteem and/or addiction causes people to make terrible choices in relationships.
That is one disturbing case.
It is surprising to see who dreamed of getting married and being a teacher to fall into the criminal world like that.
There needs to be more intervention of family and friends when their loved ones start making poor life judgements.
She was in a great deal of pain in her heart and mind.
Poor lady was doomed from the start when prescribed those nasty opiates.
When will it end!
I get where you’re coming from, Nannette. As a mother of a child who spent ten years torturing themselves and all who loved our child by using drugs. No one would’ve predicted that! Not saying things were perfect but our child had a loving and secure childhood. One that also included firm boundaries and appropriate disciplines. I’m old so I don’t think a spanking is an absolute no-go. You employ them very sparingly without any intention of causing pain. So, this kid was the last one anyone would’ve thought such a thing would happen to.
Our child has, thank God, been clean and sober for 4+ years. To our immense relief.
During those years an alarming number of kids in her class and school and area…died.
So, I do hear you.
However, opiates have always been and remain the most effective way to treat pain. There’s not much else in development. I’m sure there are plenty of folks out there studying just this but…they’ll not get much funding. The government and Big Pharma don’t want any new medications for pain relief being developed. There is big money in it. From prison to new drugs to help prevent opioid overdose (which was waiting in the wings. Ready to be put in use during this “shocking epidemic “ that wasn’t at all meant to happen) which is expensive. Medicaid pays so you and I pay. To the rehab facilities and safe houses and halfway houses and all the folks working to keep them going. Also…Exorbitantly expensive. And predatory. Some who are suffering with this crippling
medical and social disorder may get 30 days for free but, again, we all pay.
And yes, indeed, there were doctors flooding the areas with the most vulnerable people living in these very rural, small former coal towns with these new forms of pain killers. Corrupt doctors, yes, and others. Because pain is not something anyone can really quantify. It feels different to all. Then there’s every individual’s tolerance for pain. Again, not a new medication (drug) but a different application or dosage or duration of efficacy. Consequently many good doctors who witness pain experienced by so many people-and realizing that pain, and particularly, chronic pain-is not something people should have to endure if it can be prevented hoped these new meds were going to deliver what the reps, corrupt Dr.’s, and Big Pharma said they would. Of course many caring physicians were hopeful. And I don’t blame them. Who am I to think I would know how everyone SHOULD react to pain? Just make a judgement call? And yes, Dr.’s do have to determine if the pain is real or if the level being described is exaggerated but that’s a tricky call. Good doctors observe more than just the problem presented. They watch the person closely for other cues; not just verbally stated or localized physical ones. How would they categorize that? The same way as in the past? By hairstyle? By age? By ethnicity? Or deny people based on their habits current or former? Or your ancestry? Or what, exactly? That’s cruel. Also, as the not winnable (not winnable by the regular folks point of view; most of whom agree it hasn’t, doesn’t, and will never be won by) “War On Drugs” still isn’t working its magic…well? The government and Big Pharma don’t want it to. They’re the real drug dealers. And they’re making money, money, MONEY.
Here’s another thing to think about when a very general statement about a very complex issue is put forth. Something like “When are doctors going to stop prescribing those nasty opioids?”
Hopefully not until there’s something more effective and less problematic. I wouldn’t want you to suffer any unbearable (by your perception) or chronic pain ever. Much less to be told you’re lying or you don’t meet the standard or fit a category so will not get any medication or, too little, too late. Despite having the medication(s) available. That because you made errors in judgement or have a habit or behavior or your voice or attitude, etc, etc. don’t fit that individual doctor or doctors idea(s) of what seems-not is-but seems-plausible or fits into just one category you’re unworthy of treatment?
When the newly formulated medications such as OxyContin time release tablets and Duragesic Fentanyl patches were introduced to the population Big Pharma reps outright lied and said these medications could NOT be abused and that the risk of dependence was very much lower. Flat out lied. There is proof. Just like they all did with tobacco. Deplorable. And now? People with legitimate pain are punished and not treated because of an opioid epidemic and the resulting addicts that the government and Big Pharma created. Deplorable.
Thanks for reading this…if anyone makes it through!
Uhhh, in no universe does opioid use or addiction tend to result in being *burned alive* 🤨 I've used them daily for 19 years and had no such issues. Never OD'd, never stolen/pawned anything to finance my use, never doctor-shopped, never been to jail/rehab/homeless or put a needle in my arm despite not having a doctor's prescription. I also make a conscious choice to never drive intoxicated and don't have any kids so my lifestyle affects only me. I know it's anecdotal but if I could go back and do it all again I'd choose to try the hydrocodone again at 20... maybe a bit younger.
Drugs aren't inherently good or evil; it's about how they're used... and why. Even big bad opiates. This woman was the victim of a psychopathic killer, period. Like most women in her shoes it was intimate partner violence; a man known to her with whom she shared a bed & a romantic relationship. Don't let that get lost in the anti-drug propaganda.
Boy I just read two extremes of the pro drug and anti drug views in one comment thread. That rarely happens.
@@HeatherHolt lol right. I got whip lash
@@MsNooneinparticular ok? Everyone says weed isn't addictive yet I go through severe withdrawal every time I try to quit. If your story is true you are an outlier and an exception. Many addicts start with opioids and go on to use other drugs. Your personal experience is very different from the norm so why even share it? Are you trying to make a point about something?
Thanks Dr Grande, your vids are always so interesting and measured.
Oh my GOD. No way would I let them lower my pain meds to testify, especially when my tolerance was already high. Pain that severe can alter your thinking worse than opioids & may even trigger shock or heart attack. Burns are the most painful injury. I lost a loved one to MRSA after 2 months in the hospital covered in severe burns, fighting for his life. Horrid way to go. This animal should meet the same fate.
I am very sorry for your loss.
Hello Dr. Grande, thank you very much for this important broadcast.
I do not dare to imagine how many people are left with such severe pain after life-saving surgery (in this case ovarial cancer) that they can not refrain from spiralling into a prescription drug addiction and maybe gravitating to illegal drugs. This case report is heart-wrenching IMHO.
This is the first time that I unreservedly share your categorical disapproval of drugs, and I appreciate how you manage to present a balanced view even of the man's actions. Even non-drug addled brains are sometimes prone to blow some fuses. What it must be like to battle addiction in addition to "normal" financial and/ or emotional stress is only really understandable for persons with such experiences, I fear, so it is not easy to decide which retaliation is adequate for the perpetration which you referred to.
For what it is worth, cases like this leave me at a loss how I would have decided as part of a jury. I hope that the children and family of Mrs. Malinowsky are somehow able to find peace and can avoid taking the same road like she did.
Jesus. What a monster. This was a crazy one Dr G.
Excellent analysis. Thanks.
I could not count the number of people who came to the facility, parked in the parking lot, loaded up on so many drugs, it was amazing they could even ambulate into the facility. They were detoxing for the first two or three days from what they took just before they walked in.
I think the movie “clean and sober” with Michael Keaton is a great portrayal of chemical dependency facilities
Out of all the addictions, that people told me was the most difficult, they always said cigarettes was the most difficult.
My step father was a chain smoker and alcoholic. It was the smoking that killed him age 47. He'd smoked from 14 and it was obvious that even if he'd had the chance to give up to save his life he wouldn't have 😮
And yet we all quit smoking. No detox centre, no hospital, it was hard but millions did it.
@@MK-cc5veyou want a medal?

You knocked it out of the park this time Dr.G! Awesome !
Many Thanks Dr. G, I was able to watch 2 of your videos today ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I enjoy your brilliant, insightful observations & opinion
Your dry humor, a plus😁
Solid video. Really nice words at the end about Judy.
That monster and sorry excuse of a man should have been given the death penalty.
Amazing how these people find each other.
Thanks for the upload, Dr. Grande! I remember this case. Judy is awesome!
Awesome ?? She was a druggie
Your analysis was very informative and also very interesting.
Need to ensure the ads are not scammers
This is so very, very sad.
It's a very tragic case. It seems she went through a couple of years of extreme pain and agony before succumbing to her injuries and dying. She went through a lot.
such a heartbreaking story
Only 11 years for killing someone in such a horrible way AND he had prior convictions?? Why such a light sentence???
Great video, Dr. G. I like it when you go into the technical aspect of the cases and people involved. I like hearing your mental health thoughts.
There are ONLY three big decisions in life. 1. Partner 2. Career 3. Where you live. Choose wisely.
Umm.. you only need God and to follow christ.
And kids
@@dirtymikentheboys5817 HE gives you a brain, discernment and wisdom.
It amazes me that someone will say to themselves, " I've got an idea. Think I'll get my can of gas and set someone on fire. After all, I disagree with them. What choice do I have?"
Rest In Peace Judy ❤️
Nobody can so good analyse a case,as Dr. Grande! He analyses as a lawyer,as a psychologist,as a psychiatrist,as a human ,you don't need any other man ! This is the highest leve of competance in all of these sciences
Excellent review. Very well done.
Another tragic story of legal opioid prescription use going rogue and transforming a decent person into an addict. I wish there were answers. 💔
Addicts are often decent people. Perhaps you misspoke.
@@evelynwaugh4053 Yes, I did. Strike decent and insert independent. I know and love a number of extended family members and friends who are slaves to their DOC.
@@4Him4Ever Addictions do deprive an individual of freedom, which is a good motivator (among many) for addicts to free themselves from its pernicious hold.
@@evelynwaugh4053 True, if they so desire. Unfortunately the longer you are an addict, the more stranglehold it has on you. “You” become your drug. The addict will go to great lengths to deny their addiction. I think I’m safe in saying MOST addicts are liars.
Congratulations on 1.3M subscribers dr Grande!
In this case I would think the death penalty is suitable.
Love to you and the family 💓
I've followed Judy's story since she was fatally decimated by that monster! Such a sad story and may she rest in peace.
Excellent analysis Dr Grande! Where others might have misinterpreted Michael’s motives
Misinterpret it how?
Oh, Judy. What a mess, from such a beautiful start. Terribly heart breaking. A special lady. I hope Michael manages to get the help he desperately needs, and I pray her children will heal and remember their mother for the beautiful woman she was before that fated surgery and for her generosity of spirit even as she lay dying.
Incredible. And incredibly tragic.
