Dr. Grande refusing to call him Dr. Phil is hilarious.
Phil McGraws show
@@pinrod1 😂😂
Agreed
Phil McGraw isn’t a doctor/psychiatrist. Hasn’t been for many years. The show is little more than smoke and clouds.
So you are saying Cactus boy is jealous of Dr. Phil
I can't believe it's possible to brutally murder a mother of two, confess, be convicted, and still be eligible for parole after 13.5 years. That does not seem like justice.
Welcome to the reality of many other countries, where murder gets you 20 years
Especially in Texas. We are big fans of the death penalty in Texas, generally speaking
@jennh2096 Florida has more executions but Texas is a close 2nd

Cocaine for anxiety?
That's like taking Ambien for narcolepsy.
Please sir😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That’s a good point. I’m going to try cocaine for my narcolepsy and Ambiem for my anxiety.
That's like taking mushrooms for Alzheimer's.
What I said. ❤
Some people are never called crackheads
I remember seeing this case on ID I really think she dated him because she thought he would be “safe” after dating more attractive men who turned out to be losers. Unfortunately, you can be ugly and also a loser as well so that strategy doesn’t work.
Yeah really the world is full of not so great looking dangerous people.
This scenario makes more sense than her being controlling and abusive toward Mark. Mark was one who showed himself to be selfish and monstrous.
Honestly I don’t find her attractive
Yeah she was pretty average looking
Quite true
on youtube, we don't say "I love you." instead, we say "I'm only speculating what MAY be going on in a situation like this," and I think that's beautiful.

Funny 😆
I am going to use that line. 🤣

😂😂😂😂
I love your mild manner of speaking. So different from the frantic pace of most speakers these days.
I think attractiveness disparity played a role in the jury’s light sentence. Because he was unattractive, the jury not only believed but, more importantly, gave much weight to his story that Michelle abused him. It would be interesting to know what his sentence would’ve been had they been matched more equally, physically.
I’m more interested in what his sentence would’ve been if he was black.
Coke addictive child abandoned typically don’t treat their ugly men they manipulate for money well though that’s the thing.
Are you saying the jury had pity on an ugly killer?😂😂😂
@@RedTabletTalk way less lol
I completely agree with you and was thinking the same exact thing. This has to be the case. Since when does a jury believe murderers? It wasnt even a case of if he did it or not. He lied to begin with, covered up and concealed then admitted only after he was cornered. So why wouldn't he lie about what happened that night?
After watching so many of these videos I’m stunned at the number of orphans there are due to Domestic Violence.
Can't afford anxiety meds, but could afford cocaine? They have to make these meds more accessible.
Interesting choice of drugs for anxiety 🤦♀️ cocaine is not known for its calming effects!
Cocaine is definitely more expensive and causes extreme anxiety
Cocaine is terrible for anxiety. Jesus and exercise works perfectly
I agree. I have anxiety and am on Medicaid. I have a prescription and take my medicine as directed. It helps. Gosh.....doing cocaine would only lead me right into the ER with a heart-attack! Crazy!!
Clearly we need the drug companies to set the price of coke as well.
Moving in with your ex as "roommates" is asking for trouble.
She didn't have much of a choice, because of finances and child care problems.
I dated a guy that I thought was attractive, but his friends and my friends disagreed. his friends would always ask him and right in front of me, "how'd you get HER??" and my friends were so rude to him that I stopped bringing him around then... long story short, he turned out to be HIDEOUS on the inside. The insecurities, lies, attempts to control, and put downs so that he could feel great about himself was too much.
Let me guess. He was a chadlite, and would not be a cuck, and so you considered him a horrible person. 😂
So the lesson learned is to not date ugly guys I guess lol
@@Bionicleforever 😂😂that was definitely the lesson for me. go for what you want and nothing less
It's sad that the perception he ended up with about himself as reflected his whole life by the people around him, made him ugly on the inside. People who are made fun of how they look suffer a constant trauma from a very young age and they never grew into the person they could have been unless they were able to overcome it early. But in my book, it's not an excuse to be a pos to people when you are an adult
@@notapottopissin7493that means you think you're top shit, but you're probably just a user.
Sometimes attractive people date unattractive people because they aren’t shallow. The problem is, the unattractive person is usually dating the attractive person for their looks. I no longer feel sorry for people who say no one wants them because of how they look. These same people are turning anyone who doesn’t look like a model down. They feel like they “deserve” the best looking person.
100%. You nailed it.👍🏻
Is this your paranoid opinion or science lol
whaaat??
@@Rose-oq2hn This is so common. Why are you personally offended by it. Are you the ugly shallow person they're describing? If not, it's weird that you'd be so offended.
I agree! So many overweight people, for instance, don't want an overweight person and then say others are fatphobic
I will never understand why the first thing these murderers say is "my life is over" when they get caught? Huh? Pardon?
I think it's logical, based on their character. In order to murder someone, you'd have be be really self centered and immature. Otherwise you'd resolve your issue another way, even if that meant compromising.
@@evelynwaugh4053 yes. People only resort to violence when they're out of ideas associated with solving the problem with words.
When you get caughr your life as you know it is essentially OVER. What kind of comment is this?????
@vice2versa they killed someone but THEIR life is over. You didn't get that????
@@vice2versa try thinking of the victim in reference to the comment
It never ceases to amaze me the bizarre choices people make. If she was as bad as he says he never should have let her back in his life.
@@ImehSmithshe was living with him, after he left her.
He could refuse this, but.
I think it’s easy to blame it all on her since she can’t speak for herself. We only have his version of events (might be just a little skewed). No matter what , he murdered her and tried to cover it up. So I’m shocked so much victim blaming is going on in the comments. Have seen similar ideas spread about Chris Watts wife. These guys get to abuse the victim one more time by making everything the victims fault
@@lcct635if he refused, he’d never see his kid. You’re obviously clueless to the percentage of men that put up with stupid broads just to have time with their kids.
@@WalkingChampionfrom his testimony, she was a longtime abuser, and he snapped. If you reversed the narrative, I’d bet my balls you’d be posting “she got tired of the abuse and took her life back”, or some tired bullshit like that.
@@WalkingChampionit’s sickening isn’t it?!
I feel so bad for Michelle. She was definitely struggling but worked hard to turn her life around. I respect for anyone that anyone who is winning their battle with substance abuse. The fact that he used her substance abuse as a cover up is absolutely sickening to me. You just have to smear the poor the lady’s name too. RIP Michelle.
I have first hand experience with attractiveness disparity. I'm a conventionally attractive woman, and I married a man, who for the sake of brevity, I will say looked like an ogre. I was raised with the belief that "beauty is on the inside". I learned firsthand that it is fucking not! He turned out to be even uglier on the inside. I left before he could kill me, but I am convinced he was plotting my murder. His abuse had lasting effects on my mental health. I've gotten help, but I'll never be the same.
LMAO is that your own self assessment?
Lol what a dumb take 😂
May I ask what initially attracted you to this ogre?
@@tonithenightowl1836 I wasn't attracted to him. I was groomed from birth by my family and the Christian church to be a silent and compliant victim.
Sounds like you were both forced to be together due to the Christian church. Dr. G is talking about partners who ACTUALLY want to be with each other.
Regardless, sorry this happened to you.
Confidence is very attractive and being kind and respectful goes a long way.
"Attractiveness disparity". Sometimes I realize how lucky I was to find this channel. Keep it up, Doc.
We need to normalize amicable breakups. You can just stop dating someone you don't have to kill.
Yesss
Breaking things off without killing a partner is already the "norm", though.
It is very much normalized.
What isn't normal is being obsessed to the point that killing an ex partner crosses another person's mind.
Even if someone couldn't fathom killing a partner, letting someone else consume every aspect of your life is incredibly unhealthy.
We also hear stories of men and women who take their own life after their partner simply decides to break things off.
People need to have boundaries and self awareness enough to not allow themselves to be engulfed by another.
I do understand that sometimes people realize just how unwell they are mentally only after they've been involved in an intimate relationship.
And some people are so far gone that they never fully realize that what they did was immorally wrong.
It's unfortunate.
I think it is already normalized. I’m not sure in what way it isn’t.
In this case they break up and after came back in town she became only a roomate.
Amicable break ups are, and have always been, the norm. If you or anyone else thinks the alternative happens more often that's just crazy talk.
She didn't choose the attractive bad boy, she chose the average looking good guy and it ended the same way.
No matter how a man looks like its a risk being involved with them.
Yep. So much for the redpill claims.
yuppp
Sometimes the uglier man is dangerous and more aggressive can’t give everyone a chance use your discernment
The reason I stopped dating. They're narcissistic and delusional. Resentful and dangerous. Not worth the bother. Sometimes they think they can purchase you with money but I could work at Walmart and exist in peace for a portion of the day rather than hell 24/7.
💯😬
I remember watching him on the Phil McGraw show. I can’t believe he is eligible for parole in 13 years. Unbelievable. That’s the substance use stigma I’m sure. How sad to hear. 13 years. Wtf. Thanks for video.
I was there when this happened. A friend of mine lived on the property right behind where this took place. Around the time that this was going down, we would hang out near on the porch towards the back of the property, which would be facing the area where Kelly would eventually be buried. We remember hearing strange noises, but attributed them to the fact that sometimes kids would find their way into that area to drink, play paintball, or screw around. It wasn’t until a while after the investigation took place that we pieced everything together. It was eerie.
Whaaaaaaaaat??? Like kind of noises? 😢😮
3:16 I describe Mark as having " Dilbert " like physical qualities.
I knew a man who had been horribly burned in an oil well fire, he looked like a monster at first glance, but he had a great personality and held himself well, he always had a beautiful woman🤷♀️
He may have gotten a payout on a lawsuit as well. Just saying..

Sobering Fact:. Whoever you are, whatever is going on in your mind & how you feel about yourself will determine the type of partner you attract.
If you can't take care of you and have negative feelings about yourself, it's really bad to get involved and far worse to bring a child into the unhealthy mix.
Don't get involved for the wrong reasons with the wrong person! It never goes well.
So true… well said.
Thank-you.❤
Wow, the owner of truth. Relationships are way too more complicated than that.
EXCELLENT advice ❤
@@caddieohm7059 that's not victim shaming! It's hard for reality!
The jury really must have thought he was remorseful and controlled by his wife, bc he didn’t get many years for her murder. I feel bad for the children.
@cross8016 Eh. Sociopath trumps narcissistic. He abandoned his son, so the child isn't better off. Doesn't matter if someone is a narcissist. You don't get to murder them. He got sympathy because he's ugly and awkward.
@@Human_01 You sound like an incel. Women don't want to be with desperate men.
@@Human_01 Get outta here with your incel-theory
@@Human_01
You need mental help. You are seeing everything through a lens of misogyny and delusion. I hope you seek out professional help because you aren’t thinking rationally,
He manipulated them. That was a bad jury
This is psychologically complex case, thank you for breaking it down for us.❤
It’s complex, but not in the way the defense made it out to be. If Mark was genuinely remorseful, then why did he change his mind about the death penalty or badmouth the victim so much? He got off way too lightly.
It really isn't. Drug-game 403 got with dork boy so she could steamroll him 24/7 for cash and stash. Problem was he through her off and ran her over him self.
You don’t get to decide you don’t want to be a father, then change your mind years later. This monster deserved a much longer sentence.
If a woman decides she doesn't want to be a mother, gets an abortion, and then after the fact, regrets it, are you saying she doesn't have the right to change her mind? Of course not. By that logic, OF COURSE a man can change his mind about that, even if it's years later, and he can prove it by trying to mage amends to the kid. In the case of the woman with the abortion, however, no such amends are possible, because that kid doesn't exist. Get over yourself. You aren't the arbiter of what any person besides YOURSELF might do in any given situation, and how YOU might do it isn't necessarily the right way. In fact, in this situation, YOUR way is absolutely wrong for the kid. It's your mindset that is the reason there's so many criminals and drug addicts running around.
Miserable and immature, sure, but that is not a crime.
Actually yeah you can. If you realize you made the wrong choice by walking away, and you want another chance to be a good parent... your child still needs you. The best thing you can do for the child is to come back and try again.
@@the.seagull.35 you sound like a deadbeat dad yourself. Only a selfish person would traumatize their kid by randomly showing up on their doorstep years later. You can be declared an unfit parent & lose all chance of custody after being absent that long.
Men who take off don’t get a “do over” when they feel like popping back into the kids life. Self centered, narcissistic, trash.
Most people don’t “decide” they want to be a father- they decide they want to have sex and that’s as far as their orangutan brains go🐵 sadly
As a former heroin addict in recovery this case makes me physically ill. I spent a decade in a relationship with a violent and abusive man who, incidentally, was the person who introduced me to heroin, knowing that I was three years clean from opiates at the time (not making excuses for myself, I chose to try it - but I had no access to it, at least in the beginning, except through him). I had recently gone back to him, after spending three months in a domestic violence shelter, when he brought it home for the first time, and I've always thought he was using it as a means of controlling me and preventing me from leaving again. Sure enough, I spent another seven years trapped in that hellish relationship. He was a vicious and severely mentally ill individual who had been diagnosed with delusional disorder by a court-appointed psychiatrist; one night, towards the end of the relationship when it had become clear I was planning on leaving for good, he told me he was going to stab me in my sleep, cut up my body into several pieces, bury me all over the state, and then tell the police and everyone else that I had relapsed on heroin and disappeared. I left with a single suitcase two days later, because I've read and watched enough true crime to know that when a person starts telling you they're going to stab you in your sleep, you should probably believe them. I am horrified that my nightmarish close call became reality for this poor woman. To this day, even though I am in long-term recovery...a recovery I fought and clawed for and that I put above literally _everything_ else in my life...I still fear that if anything were to happen to me, the first thing police would say is "Oh, she must have just fallen off the wagon." I agree with Dr. Grande - his pathetic attempts to smear her character after brutally murdering her is, for sure, nothing short of hideous.
im so glad you're out of that situation and safe🤍good luck on your journey!
Good for you! In 1978 I left my ex husband with my 1 year old daughter. He told me one night when he was lucid that he planned to murder my infant daughter and myself and bury us under the hedge. Tah Tah
Well done you! You are an inspiration. Enjoy your life!
27 years? And he can be out in 13...for a murder?
Yeah, she should've kept her hands to herself.
@@TomikaKelly It should be less years to keep you incels and creeps off the streets.
Exactly. It's nuts. Jury failed on this.
@@TomikaKelly THERES NO EVIDENCE SHE HIT HIM. WE KNOW HE PUT HIS HANDS ON HER AND KILLED HER. The only evidence of her being an abuser is from him. No one can back up his allegations. if you think there’s merit to his story that’s fine, but your comment is disgusting.
Yeah, what state, Texas, right? In NY I know you have to complete 2/3, you can take off 1/3 for good time. I guess it's a good incentive, but he can be released at 1/2 his sentence??? I thought Texans were tough??? I gave birth to my two oldest boys in Texas. Gorgeous state, I drove to many points from Killeen. My favourite was camping ON the sandy beaches of Galveston in tents. (We had a toddler, tent contained him fr the Gulf/Mexico 🌊🌊🌊) 65 yo now, reliving life!!!
Was there any evidence at all that she was either verbally or physically abusive to him? Any history? Any old text chain where either of them discussed ANY such occurrence?
If not, I absolutely do not believe a single word out of this murderer that had also once abandoned his child and girlfriend who just gave birth, to go live with his parents 💀🤡
I’ve seen this happen before. Too bad he didn’t find a way to be in his sons life without cohabiting with Michelle. His poor son now has to live with this awful tragedy. Michelle’s poor daughter was at one point attached to Mark and has to live with it too. Thanks for your analysis Dr. Grande. You never fail to provide information on a variety of issues. You’re a fountain of knowledge
dude, it's entetainment, not knowledge, knowledge comes from within, you gotta stop jerking off to get it.
I don't see the problem as the attractiveness disparity. I thought his major problem was the socially awkward, strange and weird qualities. These qualities certainly manifested when he abandoned his wife and child because he couldn't handle being a dad, preferring to run back to his parents and having parents who would allow such a thing. He clearly had a lot of long standing problems the least of which would be his appearance. And then there were his violent tendencies and judgement to remain in a relationship with mutual dv.
@@toobalkain are you a racist?
I think "too bad he was immature, pathetic and homicidal" rather than thinking "oh it's too bad they cohabited". A mentally healthy nonhomicidal person would handle that living situation just fine. Clearly Mark is not that person no matter what was going on in their lives. And I think both kids are WAY better off now that they don't have Mark in their lives. He is not a good person and he is not a good father. I'm just sorry those babies lost their mom.
Of course he was all of the things that you said. My comment stands though. Those two had no business living together and the children had to go through something horrific
I disagree Dr. Grande. There is another option. Beautiful people are often the victims of discrimination by people who perceive themselves as less attractive. I've seen this many times. It's a low self esteem on the one who perceives themselves as less attractive that causes the problem. They hate the beautiful one and want to kill them. I've seen it.
Yeah, I've seen this. Some insecure people want someone better than them but have no idea how to handle that. So they project and emotionally abuse or whatever else. Some women think that by going for a guy that is less conventionally attractive or successful, that guy will have a better personality. When in reality, a guy can still have a crap personality and be ugly on the outside, it's not like it's mutually exclusive.
EXACTLY!
No one can control how they look. Good looking people experience all kinds of unwanted attention. Fixation. Obsession. Jealousy. Hate. You name it.
I have experienced it at work, school, in institutions - you name it.
It's like how white people experience racism from non whites. It's rare but it happens and when it does happen it's really ugly.
It isn't always lethal but the dynamic is rampant.
@@commiecomrade2644It's one of those things that people just cannot talk about.
At the 8:00 mark, Dr. Todd Grande calls Dr. Phil by his name "Phil McGraw" without the doctor title.
I think that the reactions of people in their family and social group surrounding their attractiveness difference is what makes it such a huge deal. If people didn’t make a big deal about it, then I doubt these things would be a big deal. And Mark is not ugly or extremely unattractive. He’s ordinary looking. The way people describe him is ridiculous.
I agree. He was ok looking I don’t know where Grande got that information.
Right. Mark is average and chunky, but she isn't stunningly beautiful by any means.
Looks are totally irrelevant
Some people even think that she was out of his league. She has anxiety, was using drugs, got into trouble with the law, went to jail. And they still think she has lowered down her standards. My guess is she had been told how beautiful she was her whole life, resulting in her thinking she was better than other people, that she was a good catch etc. Only to find out otherwise. Of course, I am not diagnosing, only speculating. May she rest in peace.
Nahh, she was really too pretty for him and he ended being an ugly person inside too. Never settle for less.
Freaking disgraceful. She sure got a raw deal with both those losers and how dare the judge and jury feel sorry for a murderer….
I could say the same to you and your opinion on the case!
I bet Mark's life was weathering the agonizing torment; living in a society that barely cares just for "average men" but the physically unattractive.
On that note, why didn't Mark utilise cosmetic surgery at least a little bit? Even borrowing would have released some pressure from his hard life. I suppose sustained torment does erode ones rationality and over all sanity as time persists. Mark was fortunate. An Angel and Judge (and now 'me' -some -dude- human on the internet) smiled upon him that day. 😭🥲 ~ sniffles 🤧
@cross8016 His life was so hard he strangled a woman until he heard a pop. Just hearing him describe that so dispassionatly tells me he's a sociopathic incel who is probably autistic. Lot of rotten people are autistic. It shouldn't get an automatic pass.
1. She picked them.
2. In general there certainly are cases where the murderer has an "excuse" that does not take away her/his guilt but correctly results in lighter punishment. Whether this was such a case was up to the jury to decide after hearing all the evidence, which we did not.
3. You are not fit for jury duty.
Sadly, people tend to feel sorry for murderers for a variety of reasons. One of them is that these sympathetic souls have seldom have watched the murder happen -- seen the blood gush from horrible wounds or heard the desperate and agonized screams. And while they often get to know the murderer well, at least on a surface level, the victim is dead and gone, silenced forever: an abtraction rather than someone who's vibrantly real.
@@polarvortex3294that post really dripped with borderline narcissistic pseudo intellectualism.
"Beauty is only skin deep," and it's corollary, "Sometimes people are butt-ugly inside as well as outside."
Interesting that he couldn't care for the child himself, but he had no problem leaving her to do it
I noticed that. No problem letting her do it alone.
A person's appearance may get you love, but an ugly personality will end it!
She couldn’t afford treatment for her anxiety but she could afford illegal drugs?
While I understand why you are saying this, it's not just the cost of the meds. The issue is, also the doctor's appointment said it takes to get the meds. I doesn't matter what the health problem is too, they want you to go get a check up, talk to the doctor, and then get a prescription for the medications. Usually they only give you a certain amount of refills, and then after that they want you to go into the actual office. Without insurance, doctors visits are very expensive.
Hi Dr grande- can you analyze the case of Beau Mann? He was the founder of an app called Sober Grid. He mysteriously disappeared in November 2021 and his remains were recently discovered behind an abandoned building in Santa Monica.
Dr. Grande, Happy Father’s Day!💜💜💜
You should analyse long term relationshps where they started young at same level of attractiveness but then by midlife due to different genetics there is a huge disparity.
Damn, if this guy is considered conventionally ugly, i'm in big trouble.
I didn't think he was ugly.
Not a bad looking guy. He does look overweight though!
For the average American he looks under weight
@@madalfromuk4729 I'm Australian and when a friend of mine returned from the US after spending a month there for work, she reported an inordinate % of the population is overweight, that mobility scooters are everywhere (some even supplied by supermarkets) and that most 10yo's looked 'chunky'. Apparently we have similar obesity stats to the US, but I personally don't see it in my day to day experience (I take a lot of PT and have rarely sat next to an obese person. Out of a trainful of people only a handful look overweight and by no means obese.
He is not ugly
Chase and Mark look like the same guy...so how can anyone say she "lowered her standards".
Right? They do look a lot alike!
She definitely had a type.
Oh good, I was hoping it wasn't just me. I thought the same thing.
She’s not all that either. I’m missing something.
I thought the same.
The crazies are out here in full force already 👹
Dr Grande nailed it while somehow piling Dr Phil into the ash heap of history.
Thank you Dr. Grande. It is always a great pleasure listening to you ⚘🍎
Excellent episode! Thank you for all you do!
I think a key element is that Mark did not adjust well to being a father. This could be because Mark wanted a good looking partner, but he didn't want a family life with her. Having a trophy wife he could show off might have made him happy, but being a husband and having two kids to deal with might not have been what he wanted. I would be willing to bet the pregnancy wasn't his idea. But if he is really that socially awkward, he might not have understood that using birth control was in his best interest. If he left it up to her, she might have wanted to have his child in the mistaken belief that it would secure their family life together. That would explain why he left. His friends might envy him for having a good looking wife, but they wouldn't envy him if he's stuck at home being a dad.
Makes be wonder if he address that to her that he doesn't want to be a father or at not yet
You mean he’s a dead beat dad. He strangled his wife to death. How much leeway can you give a creep like this?
I guess both were immature: she, although having a good job, could not cope with two children and financial insecurity, and him, not really having the constitution to establish a family and progress to being a father
I don't quite get it because I don't think that Michelle was especially good looking.
They did describe him as socially awkward so perhaps he hadn’t developed enough to act like a mature adult and take on responsibilities. That sounds more like the real explanation and his inability to control his emotions like a grown up.
I love all the analyses you do, but this specific analysis was absolutely fascinating! Thank you!
This guy could easily kill the next woman he's involved with that pisses him off. The sentence was ridiculous.
His sentence is not insignificant and about right based on the events. After 13 years he will have had a lot of time to think about his actions.
@@kentbetts 13 years is completely insignificant for murder, not to mention the lifetime of trauma he inflicted on two children. And like I said above, I could easily picture him losing it again and killing someone else
Hi Dr. Grande. Thanks for your amazing work.
Dr. Grande does an excellent job of sorting out these situations. He understands human behavior and is able to teach the very interesting why we do what we do.
27 years for murder? Our justice system has some real flaws. There are people serving life for lesser crimes. He should have life, or as he said the death penalty because he even felt it, that is Mark. Wow unbelievable. 🙄🤯
The major flaw of the justice system is excessive sentences. A full 27 years is horrendous. 13-15 years is more likely in this case but still a long sentence. You can get 15 years real time in Texas for a shooting, or a 3rd repeat burglary.
He asked for death, let him have it.
Thank you for the upload, Dr. Grande.
This guy Mark infuriates me. It’s terrible enough that he killed Michelle, but he’s defaming her like the incompetent man he is!
And the jury felt sorry for him? Weird
It's called reactive abuse. She abused him for years and resented him because she felt like she deserved better. He finally snapped.
Mark was the victim. She was a scum bag loser.
Yeah, she should've kept her hands to herself.
@@barbieblue3336 I thought the same😖
Thirteen years for murdering your wife? People are in jail for pot for more than that.

What a great video, Dr. Grande!
Loved your closing thought when you said, "He was trying to prove that he was not undesirable, but he ended up demonstrating that on another dimension, he was hideous."
I wouldn't think of cocaine as a substitute for anxiety meds.
Wow Dr. G. Your analysis at the end is SPOT ON. She always struggled with anxiety, and likely self worth (despite being attractive) which makes the decision to deliberately “date down” as a means of control chillingly prescient.
Thanks for your videos. They always generate an interesting response. ;)
The right magnesium is better than illegal or legal drugs
Magnesium does make you feel better. Just all around better.
I snort a few lines every morning.
Nutritional yeast is AMAZING for anxiety as well. Works better than magnesium for me, and it's not expensive. It's good on popcorn too lol
I am an ugly person. One day at about age 25 I took a good look at myself in the mirror and decided that I should not ask any girl to consider a relationship with me. It would be unfair to pass my genes on to another generation. I decided that some people are cut out to work hard and others are good lovers. I thought that trying to trade my ability to gain cash for faux love whould not be a fair trade. A trophy partner who would be happy to spend the money, have a toy boy and treat me as a cash machine is not good economics. It is one thing to have a broken heart but quite another to have a pretty ex partner take all my assets away or even murder me for it.
It is easier to [simply] give up, and invest in an Ai-virtual-girlfriends, like "Cortana".
It is for this very reason, I simply mUst repeat the following words: "Cortana… her 'pusss', really is, all I need...
From her high polygon-count, THICK thighs, perfect symmetry and high graphical-fidelity, to her chat-gpt boosted Ai, Cortana really is the only gal for me…
Also…
Unlike "real" woMenS (and they fake boobiis), ~she will never ageee, nor get hungry. She will never cheat, nor divorce me in place for child-support. - sHe wiLl acCepT meeH, for meh[me]!
Cortana, plus beer [🍺] in belly is all I neEd! 😚🤖 ...🗿
[ADVICE]
MY-PHILOSOPHY: "INNER-STRENGTH"
I have found that simply "loving myself" (inner-child) is a powerful tool against most types of social-dependency/vulnerability.
Example:
In my mind, I visualise a picture of my younger self (family albums might help). And I 'remember' what the emotion of genuine love felt like. And then I project those emotions onto the mental visualization of my younger self. I meditate and hold that 'state of mind' for as long as I can.
The result? I feel my conscious energy resignating with positivity and renewed strength. And my anxiety immediately evaporates away.
At the very least, depending on my levels of anxiety, this mediation practice aids to 'evaporate' much of it. You can do the same thing with "trying to 'remember' temperatures, e.g. hot or cold. And then project that memory onto a visualised heat source (all within your minds eye). You will 'feel' the effects immediately."
I hope this proved helpful.

.............................
"Evil" is the antithesis to the virtue: 'humanity'. Humanity is the characteristic that defines the human spirit. Humanity is symbiosis across humans and society. 'Humanity' exceeds 'social-darwinism'.
.............................
NEURO-PERSONALITY
.............................
"SENSORY-FEELERS" ARE LARGELY RESPONSIBLE FOR SPREADING DISINFORMATION AND HATE TOWARDS ENTJ/INTJ (AGAINST "THINKERS" IN GENERAL)-BOTH IRL AND ON THE INTERNET; DESPITE THOSE NEURO-PERSONALITY TYPES BEING A BLESSING TO SOCIETY AND ALL OF MANKIND! THEY DESERVE BETTER! 😤
'ESFJ', 'ESFP', ISFP and 'ISFJ' are a pathogen to humanity, and 'then' Cluster-B (depending on their neuro-personality).
THEIR "FEELINGS 'IS' THEIR REALITY", THEY ALSO HAVE A MALICIOUS-MIND BY DEFAULT (low 'mirror-neurons' results in "SOCIOPATHIC-FEELER"; full of pathological hate, and highly chaotic).
WHAT'S MORE, DESPITE HAVING MALICIOUS INTENT THEY ARE ALL EMOTIONALLY-WEAK AND PRONE TO COVERT/VULNERABLE-NARCISSISM (ISFJ especially; they impersonate and spread hate towards genuine INFJs).
...............................
Also... To intelligent readers (who do 'not’ have a ‘pathological disregard for rationality and reality').
I recommend researching 'narcissistic personality disorder' (NPD) / 'cluster-B'; and know that they are the 'root of all evil' (especially 'ESFJ/ESTJ-narcissist'; Myers-Briggs reference, look it up)!
European 'ESFJ' are the worst personality type, and they are responsible for inventing 'racism' and colonization! It is in their neuro-psychology!!!
They are extremely 'manipulative' and often use 'looking pretty' to distract others from the witch's mind-games / mind-r@pe, e.g. gaslighting, playing the victim/damsel in distress, creating "flying-monkeys", and 'bribing' others (with money or BJ) to attack, or at times, kill someone for her. When caught, she will use her minions as scapegoats. European ESFJ are notorious for this especially in a racist context, e.g. Emmett Till.
xSFP and ISFJ (2W1) are the most complicit, narcissistic-enablers. ISFP also tend to be 'oblivious-codependents' (look up the definition). Like ESFJ, XSFP's "feelings 'is' their reality." Most are covert/vulnerable-narcissists.
ISFJ often perceive things only on the surface level (even by sensor standards), are suckers for a “pretty face", and their neuro-psychology makes them the ideal narcissitic-codependent and pawn to the ESFJ (blind-loyalty, surface level perception, susceptibility to covert-narcissism).
Lastly, ISFJ are notorious for impersonating other people's identities IRL and on the internet; while ESFJ-9W1 superficially appears like an ENFJ, they have different 'neurology' and psychology. Both XSFJ are superficial by nature and perceive reality at face-value/surface level.
SUMMARY
Evil personality: 'ESFJ' (ALL), ESTJ (Cluster-b), ISFJ-2W1 (covert-narc/enabler). ESFJ-9W1 superficially resembles ENFJ; different 'neurology' and psychology.
[Secretly] Evil and narcissist-friendly gunts/flying-monkey: ISFP (ALL), ESFP (ALL), and ISFJ (2W1 enable ESFJ). Narcissitic-codependents.
☝️ALL of them are secretly emotionally-disturbed, hence their need to create conflict as a distraction (at other people's expense, truly evil).
Spread the word! Thank you.

FEMALE-ATTRACTION/ATTRACTION/ROMANTIC-ATTRACTION/FEMALE-PSYCHOLOGY/HOW-TO-ATTRACT-FEMALES/FEMALE-MANIPULATORS/MANIPULATE-FEMALES/FEMALE-DATING-FEMALES
Answer:
1) 'Emotional Appeal'; how you make a female "feel" is the key to her everything. Give her 'emotional-thrills' via manipulation.
2) Physical Attraction; even this is connected to emotional appeal/attraction. Both points connect the strange stereotype between women "fucking" psychopaths, "bad-boys"; and ESTP/Chad, ENFP, etc.
[I strongly believe that most women cannot differentiate between the sensation of "emotional-thrills" (including 'lust') and [genuine] "love"].
Love-definition. What is "love"? Answer: Excessive humanity for an individual.
Since most women are emotionally immature (they are good at masking it; do not confuse the two), they are exceedingly susceptible to emotional manipulation/exploitation.
Since society over-values and over protects the human female, the female can afford not to develop their sentience, intelligence, emotional residency and self-control. This makes them both unintelligent/narcissitic and emotionally-vulnerable.
Of the MBTI, most females are "feelers" and unintelligent-feelers, i.e. "sensor-feelers" (population density), no less. They are more vulnerable to this realization/exploit, i.e. that physical attraction and emotional manipulation (via "thrills") is the key to attracting the female.
NOTE: Most women monitor and prey on the emotions of a man. They attempt to corrode the emotional resiliency of a male child; thus making the male child susceptible to her "whining", narcissitic-complaints (self-serving and emotionally abusive [whims]); psychological manipulation via emotional abusing their sons will make them a dull, and disposable pawn (who exists solely to serve women and lay down their lives, as thought and conditioned via social norms).

@@Human_01 sorry, not helpful too verbose
Dr. G’s analysis and presentation is always succinct and well researched.
Happy Fathers Day! ❤ thank you for all the great videos
Thanks, Doc! Just finished dinner, just in time!
This channel is amazing. Love your voice and your vocabulary. Your analysis is always insightful and interesting.
RE: Dr. Phil, so comical, love it! Dr. Grande you are always on-point and I enjoy your videos so much and I learn so much about mental issues, relationship issues, life issues, etc. Thank you for all you do!
Dr. Phil actually was the person to break her case open and get mark to confess.
Dr. Grande, as a parent of little ones, I am always thinking of ways how to raise my children to become well rounded adults. I often wonder if there is anything people can do as parents, to help prevent their children from becoming either psychopaths or people who attract psychopaths. Would you do a video on this?
Psychopaths are born. No up and down parenting. Consistency. Accountability. Not shaming/guilt. how you are in your home will be how they will be
Spend time with them. This demonstrates that you live them. Be to them what just, kind and noble and they will then be well adjusted adults. Your time and love means so much more to children than bling and fancy toys and vacations.
@@marianhunt8899 If time and love are good thing, I also think it all depends on the psychology of the parents and their balance! A parent can very well give time and love to his/her child, consciously, yet can do very damaging things if they aren't balanced, like smother the child, or put the child on a pedestal, ignore problematic behavior, wanting to be the cool everloving parent in order to be loved back to the detriment of education, etc.
@@labotraduc8448 very true. Yes, time and some twisted form of love from an unhinged parent would be counter productive.
The first 5 years generally determines this behavior. Usually, a single mother in an unstable situation. They don't learn empathy or self control. The lack of a father in the family seems to be the largest factor. Sometimes, people are just born evil.
This is the BEST channel on youtube 👏
Thank you, Dr. Grande for putting together this analysis. I have heard about this case before, but your perspective is unique and fascinating. I always enjoy watching your videos.
Dr. Grande - I remember this couple's case, so I found your analysis, simply, quite interesting! 👍💜🌵
P.S. Happy Father's Day!
She's not that attractive. Divorced single mother, former addict, jailed felon. She was low value in any Pareto distribution and so was he. Sad story.
thank God we have someone as great as you to judge others! You are amazing!
Who would marry such a loser as her? Another loser?
I don’t get it. He just looks like a normal guy to me. Not “ugly” at all. Who are all these insanely good looking people judging him?
agreed -- and in the other photos he is more attractive -- removing the glasses helps, as does losing some weight and ditching unattractive angles of photography ... Ironically, in his booking photo he looks handsome --
No matter what, people of all looks and of either sex, pay attention to red flags always -- and if present make plans to leave 💧🙏🕊️
I had the same thought. I'm also thinking there were self-esteem issues for both of these people. If you ever find yourself attracted to someone with low self-esteem, 𝙧𝙪𝙣 𝙖𝙬𝙖𝙮! 𝙧𝙪𝙣 𝙖𝙬𝙖𝙮!
@@jguenther3049 tricky, cause a narcisist can destroy your self esteem. and at the same time, they'll be super confident of themselves lol, or will appear as much in the case of psycipaths, so really, not as simple. and you may also be forgetig about being humble. Not putting yourself on a high horse. i would say high self steem CAN (not always) be attractive at first, but in the long run it just leads to mistreatment to the partner. just be decently confident, which is not the same.
@@magical571Yes, both ends of the spectrum are dangerous to relationships. But my comment addressed only those with LOW self-esteem. I did not recommend hooking up with a narcissist.
Happy Father’s Day, Dr. Grande! 🌵💕🌷🐶
Hi Dr Grande,excellent analysis. As always I learn something new from your videos.😊
Dr. Grande please read this.
It has been long since I worte a comment for your videos but I almost never miss one, technically addicted. Today I was listening to a prior video of your channel and I got a moment where I asked myself; what if Dr.Grande narrated an audible book for the people who are addicted to his effective voice/tone.
I am sure you had this idea spoken to you before
What the hell. she left her first husband because she thought she could do better and instead became an addict and went to jail and then started dating an ugly guy and has another child so now 2 kids from 2 baby daddies. Then the 2nd baby daddy strangled her to death and she got dumped in an oil field. Sounds like she is doing a lot better.
Many can learn from this....
She may not have made good choices but she didn't deserve what happened to her at all.
She must have been impulsive and a sensitive person. Sad for her.
My theory is that she was already suffering from mental health issues and as a result, had poor judgement that made her seek out people who were similar in nature to her. In the end, she ended up hanging around someone even more unstable than her, who eventually revealed his true colours and murdered her. The cautionary lesson here is choose who you associate with wisely.
Sometimes, doing better isn't getting someone who looks better, it's getting someone who treats you better. Of course, she failed on all accounts. It kinda sounds like she wanted someone smarter, though. Dude might have been the smarter guy she wanted, but he definitely wasn't better.
I really loved the in-depth analysis of relationships you gave at the end of this video.
The disparity in physical attractiveness reminds me of the film Can't Buy Me Love (1987).
I remember Social Exchange Theory in my Introduction to Social Psychology class at Doane University.
Physical Attractiveness is a trait that is highly valued by males. Mark certainly knew that she had a world of potential suitors simply based on that trait.
Sad superficial world we live in. I didn't find him that ugly.
I have really come to enjoy your humor and content.... keep up the good work
Thank you for making these entertaining, compelling, and thoughtful videos!! It is obvious you are passionate about each and every one of them. I might disagree with your assessment from time to time, though this is one of the things I enjoy about your videos as it is a welcomed use of my critical thinking skills!
I can't tell if this guy is just dead pan or he is one of the funniest unintentionally funny commentators out there right now.
Definitely deadpan. He’s hilarious 😂
I'm very sad to learn that the life expectantcy in Texas is only 27 years. 😞
Really interesting analysis. Thank you.
Hello Dr.Grand🏁e.
You’re insightful and unusual analysis delivered with a sharpe eye and a very sharp mind is most appreciated when giving your final thoughts .
I admit, I rarely, if ever I have disagreed with you concerning the outcome of most if not all of your analysis come to think of it .
You are my living Perry, Mason and I love Perry Mason😂❤!
I would like to wish you a Very HappyFather’s Day,.❤
May I also also complement you on your beautiful choice of color?
The cranberry wine burgundy is most flattering.
And your wife has very good taste!❤😉!
😎🤣💫🏁!
In Texas, it’s pronounced UMBLE, no “H”. 😉 thanks, Dr, G 🌵
I was looking for this comment 💖
Thanks for another one Dr. Grande
Very informative analysis, especially surrounding the deceased's behaviour, thanks🥝🇳🇿😎
This event, if your analysis is accurate, is a great illustration on why society’s idolization of conventional beauty hurts everyone.
@You, I touch myself Nobody said he killed here because of her beauty, directly. Dr. Grande posits that he killed her because her attitude toward her own physical/perceived beauty encouraged her treat him in an entitled manner.
@You, I touch myself I never said what he did was excusable?! It’s not.
@Gonnatouch its her fault for abusing the guy. I dont care what happends to abusers. They all deserve what happends to them.
@@vice2versa show us on the doll how you’ve been hurt 🧛🏻
I really think it's biological, not societal. I've tried to be with people who I don't find physically attractive but im naturally repulsed and can't so it. It's not society
Hey, the Texas city is pronounced “Umble” - silent H.
Dr. Grande has the calmest voice and demeanor🙂.
Dr. Grande is such a badass!! I love your content!!!
couldnt afford xanax, but had money for coke?
😂 maybe she was friendly w her dealer
Health insurance, doctors visits, and prescriptions are crazy expensive. Cocaine is by far cheaper. Not the better option by any means, but for sure cheaper.
im sure health insurance is way more than buying cole occasionally lmao
Honestly, this guy isnt even that bad looking, social anxiety/awkwardness is probably his real issue. Shes not like crazy attractive either, so i domt know if id see them as an odd couple.
Well she's definitely turn heads and he wouldn't do yeah they were mismatched
I had enough of psychology in college, but if I had a professor like Dr. Grande, I would have actually loved it. Great dude.
I'm still trying to get my head around it all. It is such a mess. Thanks Dr G. xxxx
Very informative and accurate analysis. I learn something new in almost every video. I wish you could post 5 videos per day. 😂 ❤️
From an online picture, it looked like Mark had moderately high cheekbones. Maybe if he lost about forty pounds and got a little more sun tan, he would up his attractiveness.
