Thank you Aubree, Heidi, Dr. Brown, and Robert Schwartz for participating in this podcast. There are no words to describe the unimaginable pain that the O'Melia family has endured. The loss of Chad is a tragedy that will forever leave a void in the lives of those who loved him. My heart goes out to his family, as well as my own, as we all continue to navigate the immense grief and sorrow since that day in May 2018. There was no ill will between Chad and me, and I would never intentionally harm anyone. I have listened to the accusations that I show no remorse and am here to tell you all I do. I am broken and aching inside. I hurt knowing O'Melia family and friends will never see Chad again…and they will never celebrate the holidays together again. This hole in their life is not lost on me… I want the family to know this… I am truly sorry for the loss and trauma you will endure for a lifetime. I too, will carry your words… pain… brokenness… and despair with me for the rest of my life. I can only hope that… in time and prayer… Chad's family and my family find some measure of peace and healing moving forward. I wish I had known more about the dangerous and deadly effects of marijuana. Had I known, I would never have smoked marijuana that night or any other time. Cannabis-induced psychosis is a very real, though not widely known, phenomenon. It is my hope that through education and advocacy, we can prevent further tragedies. The cannabis industry has grown rapidly, and with it, the potency of available products has soared, sometimes reaching over 90%. These products need clear warnings about the potential risks, particularly when it comes to techniques like stacking hits, which can dramatically increase THC potency. With the support of Every Brain Matters, I am committed to raising awareness and ensuring that people - whether long-term users or those new to cannabis - are fully informed about the potential dangers of high potency products, especially from stacking hits. Education is key to making safer, more informed decisions. -Bryn Spejcher
It is a crime that the California legislature does not regulate this inustry, which as Bob noted in his comments, has tactics which are similar to Big Tobacco. If the industry and public health organizations provided specific public health education about THC (akin to detailed sex education), I have no doubt that Chad would have been careful, and upfront with you, about what he provided to you, especially given your lack of experience. And, as you testified and commented above, if you knew there were any harms, including those to mental health and the risk to violence, you would have refused to use any--period. My heart breaks for Chad O'Melia and his family. For you and your family. You are all victims of the lies of the marijuana industry, our govt, the public health organizations and the media. Lawsuits are finally in motion. Hopefully, like it was with Big Tobacco, we will see this addiction industry pay for withholding the facts. And then public awareness will change. Our govt, public health organizations and the media will be forced to acknowledge the risks. In turn, this will reduce some of the senseless violence and loss of life to THC.
MONSTER. You belong in prison for life. You got a pussy pass because of the cowardice of the judiciary. A MAN would not have gotten a pussy pass all else being the same.
You're a monster and a murderer. You were already psychotic. Anything can trigger a psychotic person. YOU belong in prison for LIFE. A MAN would not have gotten off all else being the same. You got a PUSSY PASS due to being fe-MALE
@@EveryBrainMatters BULLSHIT BRYN IS A LYING MURDERER BELONGS BEHIND BARS. JUSTICE FOR CHAD WILL BE SERVED ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. HER LAWYERS ARE COMPLICIT AS WELL SHAME ON ALL ON HER SIDE
She got a pussy pass. She got off because she's fe-MALE. She's a psycho monster and not a victim of reefer madness which is bullshit., a MAN would not have gotten off all else being the same.
Court "facts" prove absolutely nothing. Nobody in court was there. You're taking a first degree murderer at her word that the devil lettuce made her do it. That's not a "fact" - that's her version of the story, so she could away with it. Didn't you take a hippocratic oath, to do right by your patients, to do no harm? You do realize, as medical doctors, that the effects of marijuana go away after 3-4 hours, right? You also realize she was screaming and playing crazy THE NEXT MORNING....after it long wore off, right? If you want to us your medical status to demonize a plant that personally didn't agree with you, that's your right. Defending a first degree murderer, calling her BS story, a "fact", and holding up your medical license to do it, is not just irresponsible, it's disgusting. I feel so sorry for your patients, and hope they seek an actual professional doctor, immediately.
Court facts prove nothing - there was no camera. You only believe her story because you are an anti-marijuana fanatic that hates the plant so much you're willing to go on record defending a murderer because it suits your agenda. She posted 500,000.00 bond, she's a rich white woman in California with ties to law enforcement and the courts - that's the only reason she's free. You took a hippocratic oath to save people's lives and you are using your medical degree to call a murderer a hero. You are about as scientific as a priest condemning all acts of sex even though you yourself don't do it. I feel so, so, sorry for your patients.
My neighbours secondhand marijuana seeps through our house and it literally makes us sick. My lease says that it’s prohibited but my landlord is refusing to enforce it.
Very sorry for you. In our city, people are allowed to use in their own homes and on their own balconies. So, if THC smoke comes into our home, it's our problem entirely. All the rights belong to the drug users. We have no rights to clean air.
terrible direction this nation turned. When good people fail, evil prevails, and good folks get burned 🔥. Same for this YOUTH indoctrinating perv substantiation through school education- The flow of fet and icy meth over the border and immigration will bring pure disorder, and they will come after your daughter- Being underreported in the press-. Shame on our Government, they failed the test.....
@@itruleyloveyouonyt123I never met pot smoker's who were clean tenants, on time with rent, and responsible.. There's a disconnect when THC is abused like any drug or substance.
@@josephesposito3499 it’s important that people understand the potential of cannabis all the experts agreed it was cannabis induced psychosis. The more we deny this fact, the more people harmed.
@@EveryBrainMatters She was already psychotic. ANYTHING can trigger psychosis, and it should NOT be an excuse to get off. Psychosis is NEVER used as an excuse for a violent reaction a MAN had to drugs. She got a pussy pass. She committed a heinous murder and she got a pussy pass because she's fe-MALE.
@@EveryBrainMatters Reefer madness is bullshit. She was already psychotic. ANYTHING can trigger a psychotic person. If a MAN had stabbed a wo-MAN 108 times due to drug induced psychosis he would not have gotten off like she did. The PUSSY PASS is far more dangerous than cannabis.
@@EveryBrainMatters The more you use your medical license to spread disinformation, and maintain your belief that anyone who kills somebody else for fun should be able to blame weed and get off score free, will cause a hell of a lot more harm.
These "doctors" are deleting and now blocking my comments. Rather than have an intellectual discussion, they just delete any comments that disagree this murderer is anything other than victim. It's pathetic how dishonest people that took a Hippocratic oath can be. They're like priests who condemn every form of sexuality, without themselves ever having had actual sex. I feel so sorry for their patients.

She's a monster. She's even blamed Chad for coercing her into smoking a second hit. I believe she's even said he wanted to choke her during sex, notice playing the victim, she wasn't even made to stay in jail for the six years leading up to the trial. She got as pussy pass
What experts? You mean medical doctors, like yourself? Matthew's Perrys doctors were experts, right? They were experts when one said. "How much do you think we can get this idiot to pay?" and the other responded "We'll find out!" I believe the "experts" you reference in this case were every bit as professional as Matthew Perrys experts. Every last bit.

She herself has said it was laced with something. She also tried to blame Chad for being abusive and wanting to choke her during sex. Even though the evidence shows SHE'S the depraved one
@@EveryBrainMatters As medical doctor, you SHOULD be aware that marijuana lasts up to 30 days in a human beings system. It's something most teenage drop outs know...why don't you? Are your patients aware you know less about this subject than a high school drop out?
