"The suspense element in her writing was achieved by the reader hoping that the writing would improve as they were reading the book" had me laughing already. But then you come out with "Her husband may have been her first human homicide victim, but she had been killing plots and story lines for many years" LMAO, wow you've outdone yourself Dr. Grande. Holy, I cackled
It really loved it!!!!
Maybe his best line yet.
I immediately pressed the like button when he finished saying that. Then I cackled. Lol
I'm laughing so hard it hurts 🤣
Lmao I know. His deadpan delivery of the sickest burns is 😗👌 **chef’s kiss**
I am a former student of Chef Brophy's. For my externship, I worked at Bob's Red Mill for their cooking classes. Brophy taught a couple of those classes while I was there. Nancy attended (as an assistant) one of the classes that Chef Brophy taught. As she and I prepped for the class, she joked about how she had written an essay on how to murder your husband and get away with it. A few weeks later, she shot her husband. I still have a hard time cooking to this day because this incident haunts me.
When I had gotten news that someone had been shot at OCI, before we knew who it was, the woman who ran the cooking classes sent an e-mail to Chef Brophy to see if he was okay. Within twenty minutes, Nancy responded to tell us it was Brophy that had been shot. I had to excuse myself from the cooking classes, and take some time in my car to compose myself. Even at that early stage, it bothered me deeply that she had responded so quickly. Why was she monitoring her husband's e-mails when she should be a newly grieving widow? We now have the answer to that question.
Chef Brophy was a hard ass, but he cared deeply about his students. Nancy cut short the life of a wonderful man and the world is a little less awesome without him in it.
Wow thanks for comment u knew them
Wow. I didn't know this..... hit me hard and saddens me deeply. Chef Brophy was one of my favorite instructors when I attended the culinary school in 1995-96, then called Western Culinary Institute. I was 40 and a career changer. He was a great, funny and very knowledgeable man. I once presented 2 dishes for critique/evaluation and he noticed a hair on one of them. I was horrified, then realized it fell from his mustache! We had a good laugh.
What a horrible way for him to die. His wife deserves what she gets. RIP Dan. You were a major positive influence on my culinary career.
thank you for sharing that....he seemed like a very nice man from a short clip on youtube I viewed about Chef Brophy...my take on this, is that things were not so rosy at home for quite some time...something happened in that house...perhaps they've been arguing about the finances and her spending habits, leading her to start purchasing tons and tons of insurance...I would make book that she, in her warped mind started thinking long ago about..reaping all that insurance money...of course Dan, the quiet type was not one to air his problems publicly...so nobody really knew what was going on in that house...both of them gave that sense of harmony in front of others..., with that being said.. I thank this prosecutor in his brilliance of nailing her and the jury for seeing right through her phony facade.....Rest in peace Dan...they got her.
So sad!
Thank you for this.
It's easy to forget that victims were real people and not just punchlines
They struggled financially. They took life insurance policies on him, totalling 800.000. They paid over 1000/month of insurance premiums while struggling financially.
Nothing suspicious here, really. 🙄
@@erdelegy One can't help but wonder what his thoughts were on this indeed.
They even cut out basic cable TV🧐
Doing Mike from That Chapter Life Insurance dance
Insert the That Chapter "life insurance dance" clip 😆 🕺
I suspect he was trying to leave her
If she committed a crime this badly, I can imagine how bad her books are
“Her husband may have been her first human homicide victim but she’s been killing plots and storylines for many years.”
Dr. Grande just verbally murdered this woman and casually carried on as if nothing had happened.
She should've tried writing about the conflicts between the mushrooms and truffles...
@@miriammanolov9135 if you want to see a good movie about mushrooms, check out “Pig”, starring Nick Cage. It’s about an ex-badass who retired to the woods to hunt truffles with his pet pig. Some sketchy people from the truffle trade underbelly catch him by surprise, beat the shit out of him, and kidnap his beloved pet. Nick Cage was obviously not happy, and if you’ve ever seen a Nick Cage movie you know it’s not a good idea to upset that man. I won’t spoil the rest but it’s honesty a great film. It takes the John Wick formula and turns it on its head, subverting your expectations in very interesting ways.
@@Im_alex_h oh wow... thanks. My husband wanted to see it and saw the trailer, and I'm like 'nah'... but since you think it has a Wick twist , then I'm in !! Thanks!!
Wow very clever I love it 🤣
HILFUCKINLARIOUS 😂😂😂😂
This case has fascinated me for awhile... the prosecutor, Mr. Overstreet was amazing....very chill...he just asked the questions...and let her ramble on. She hung herself on the stand
Absolutely classic Dunning-Kruger effect.
I know someone like this. Extremely confident of her mental and other abilities and superiority, but basically not very bright, and surprisingly clueless.
These kind of people, scare me.
What is reality? There's is just as real as yours or mine. But so vastly different. 🤷♀️
Bingo
Thank you for introducing me to this theory. Just looked it up and it’s very interesting
Millions of sane Americans had to endure someone just like this from 2017 to 2021, and god forbid, the possibility of it again in November 2024.
The gun doesn't leave mushroom for doubt.
Very clever!
Lol
Punny! 😂
Side note: it's actually pretty common for mushroom hunters in the PNW to be armed.
The reason is a combination of random homeless encampments in the woods and violent mushroom hunters that will kill for truffles as some are extremely valuable.
I wouldn't believe it either if I hadn't been living in PNW for ten years. But. That's how it be.
I do know that ...truffle hunters..but did he actually hunt for them, though, or did they just take the word of his lying murderous treacherous wife?
I live on the east coast and can confirm it’s not unusual for mushroom hunters to take a pistol or some type of firearm into the woods with them. Because bears and bobcats mostly.
I know many people who are in the woods for various reasons who always carry a weapon. Whether they are birdwatching, hunting, geocaching or hiking it’s not safe to be in a wilderness area unarmed.
I was going to point out the same thing. And I don't even eat mushrooms at all, just have many friends that collect them.
There’s a lot of $$ in mushroom foraging and (often illegal) foragers have their “secret spots” and are very protective and territorial of them.
I'm surprised it wasn't another mushroom hunter that killed him. It's a very territorial thing in the Pacific Northwest. Mushroom gathering is often a source of income for people in need of money.
I know! Dr. Grande mocks this theory of needing a gun to gather truffles, but you sure as heck do! From sunny 🌞 California.
@@Ashas.Garden just recently watched the movie “Pig”, starring Nick Cage, which is basically like if John Wick was a mushroom hunter who had his truffle pig stolen by the some big wigs involved involved in the dark side the truffle trade, so I can believe it. Fantastic movie though, def recommend.
The visual of battle hardened mushrooms had me laughing so hard I snorted coffee out my nose....having said that I am fully armed when out in the woods here in the great Pacific NW...not out of fear of embattled shrooms though. Run into just one group of methheads cooking up a batch and you are cured of your fear of 🍄 forever and will forever be loaded for bear when roaming our gorgeous forests. Too many sets of human remains have been found by mushroom hunters as well.....it isn't the mushrooms you need to be watching out for...js....
Remember: It was a gang of mushrooms that attacked him!:D This comment from Dr. Grande made me laugh! What a surprising twist;) Twisted indeed...Don't tell anyone that I sliced and ate portobello mushrooms yesterday. Their families might want revenge..
@@Im_alex_h When he mentioned truffles I immediately thought of the thugs who kidnapped Cage's character's pig.Brilliant movie.
It’s 10pm here in Northern Ireland, just gotten into bed and Dr Grande has blessed me with a video for bedtime listening, perfect 👌🏻
I'm here in England doing the same thing!
Arizona is early afternoon. Perfect Grande time!🍄🍷
I'm snuggled up in Dublin, Ireland. Dr. Grande time, love it
Seet dreams 💤😴🛏
What's the temp there in Ireland?
Dr. Grande, I was waiting for you to cover the Brophys! I’m an applied cognitive scientist who thought about you during the MMPI and psychopathology testimony. Nancy apparently has manipulated people for her lifetime with many people being drawn to being around her. I’m convinced her exceedingly high self confidence convinced her that if her writing time was self-funded by those death benefits, she’d finally achieve the fame and fortune writer status she believed she deserved. Beware of those killer mushrooms this holiday weekend. I’ve heard those fun guys like to party! 😎
Fun guys 😂😂😂
Im surprised you didnt focus on her narcissistic tendencies. I think she created a trauma bond with Dan because she clearly destroyed his life. She bankrupted the business. She spent all of his money. She pretended she was a writer and lunched with her friends. She definitely despised his lifestyle
and had know respect for him. How narcissistic is it to want to move her husband from a job he loves his garden and family. She used him up and when she couldn't get more she killed him. And then she had the gall to use the rest of the family to sell his home and possessions. What an evil manipulator.
I love how Dr Grande's comedic delivery is so deadpan that you don't see the joke coming! Needed a good laugh today and this did the trick.
Such brilliantly dry humour i love it!
"Because everybody knows that when you're out in the woods, and a gang of mushrooms decides to attack, it's important to have a lot of fire power available. Their ongoing war with the truffles has left mushrooms battle hardened and aggressive". Dr. Grande, you are SO witty. I'm still lmao. Thank you for your amusing take on a sad subject. I love dark humor.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
The couple didn't buy the insurance policies: Nancy did. Nancy was also the insurance broker. The total insurance haul was upwards of $1.5M because she also made sure she killed Dan on college property, so she could collect the worker's comp insurance + the accidental death amount. Then there was the matter of Dan's SS going to his surviving widow.
BTW Nancy had at least 2 Starbucks every day. That's over $3,650 per year, or 2 mortgage payments.
hehe, I was about to go alert people commenting under the trial about this vid when I saw your comment.
All she did the finance so he had no idea how much this insurance policy was . If he even know about
As soon as I heard "needing the gun for mushroom picking" I immediately began laughing anticipating Dr.G's dark comedic remark.
So much circumstantial evidence! I live in Portland & most peeps feel she was way guilty. Excellent points regarding her memory. She is one cold blooded character. Thanks for covering this.
I live in Portland, too. Who would fail to think ahead about security cameras in the area of the max line and the news station? She’s a moron and a ghoul.
I’m living in Portland during this trail….this storyline is so unreal, I don’t know how Nancy thought she would not be convicted.
So, it’s 2022. She knew how to research on the web. How did she not know that her searches and purchases would be uncovered? She had to pass an FBI gun check - she knew the authorities knew she had a gun. How could she not expect to have been picked up on a camera somewhere? Why did she think she could make up her own psychological disorder and not be called out on it? No wonder she was self published. 🤦🏻♀️
Good one!😂
What is a web
@@barbieblue3336 To do research on the web means to do it online, on the internet.
Cam. - She switched out the "barrel?" and thought she was being clever!
@Cam Robertson switching the barrel and then conveniently losing the extra barrel made it impossible to ballistic check the bullets, as the lands and grooves wouldn't match the only barrel she gave them, the barrel that wasn't used.
Dr. Grande,
The ongoing war with the truffles. I'm dying.
You are the best!
Love from Canada! 🇨🇦
I would love to see the out takes on this one.
Thanks for covering this Dr Grande. I followed the entire Brophy trial and you have encapsulated it perfectly. Your explanation of Nancy's "amnesia" makes sense and simplifies what the prosecution was trying to say. She is guilty and thought nothing of taking a life... how could someone do that to someone they apparently loved (the defense called so many witnesses about the great Nancy/Dan love story)
I think I would become suspicious if mortgage wasn't paid because of lack of money, but $1,000.00 a month for Life Insurance was!!
The trial for this case carried on for almost a month! I live in the Portland Metro area and this has been a huge story. Too many things worked against Nancy in this case. Her vehicle was found driving past the school 10 minutes later after Dan’s murder! The school closed soon after this murder. She killed him about 10 minutes before students started coming in for his class. Sick woman. Sad case for Dan and his family
“Was Nancy guilty?” Does a brown bear poop in the woods?
Don’t you just hate it when you murder someone to get the life insurance money but then you get caught and you don’t get the money?
I WOULDN'T KNOW! LET'S ASK MRS B.
🤣
How many times does this not getting the insurance money have to happen before people will stop trying this?
@@bthomson these people always believe they are CLEVERER than anybody else and they will not get caught.
Do u not get the money he did die at work . I hope the family gets it
The only suspense in her writing is by her readers expecting her writing will improve. Lol
Two points you missed, the ghost gun and the gun from the gun shows were different guns, and the slide and barrels weren't interchangeable. The extra slide and barrel that she purchased from Ebay would only fit the gun from the gun show, not the ghost gun. She at first stated that she didn't touch the gun before giving it to police, but in cross examination claimed that she had played with the gun and had removed the slide and barrel just to see if she could. Also they caught Nancy on the video surveillance the day of the murder, the police were dropping her off when it was found. As an aside mushroom hunting can be dangerous around here as the people who usually hunt for them can be very territorial, and can be kind of shady, since there is quick money in it. The rest of your analysis was spot on.
Not exactly the brightest bulb, is she….. On a side note, mushroom picking can be quite competitive. People have been killed to take the mushrooms they gathered to sell. So, taking a weapon when hunting mushrooms isn’t necessarily unheard of.
The moment life insurance policies were brought up I already knew where this was going. I could see and hear the little ThatChapter dance in my head.
Mike is another RUclips creator I enjoy! Great minds think alike.
"Love and good wishes." 😂 Dr. Grande's humor gets me every time.
One thing has always been at the forefront on my thoughts and questions regarding this case; Dan had a total of almost $1.5M in life insurance policies. Did Nancy have any on her? Also, I believe you can take out LI on anyone, without them even knowing about it? Maybe someone can help me out with this one.
"Dan Brophy was worth almost $1.5 million to Nancy Brophy if he was dead and he was worth a life of financial hardship if he stayed alive," prosecutors said in court documents. "Nancy Brophy planned and carried out what she believed was the perfect murder. A murder that she believed would free her from the grips of financial despair."
His life insurance was about 800.000, Nancy's about 35.000. Τhere was no definite proof that he either knew or didn't about them but I think he did, given their financial situation.
Thank you for covering this. It got buried in the news because of the Depp/Heard dumpster fire.
She failed to write up the " - and how to get away with it" part of her essay title. Classic rookie mistake!
I am relieved she was convicted. I, too was horribly concerned she'd get off.
I met her a few times at author's conventions. She hounded me for publisher information. I avoided her once I visited her booth and realized she was nothing but a (what some of us refer to as) "Meat Hook" books. In other words, her tawdry book covers featuring shirtless hunks to hook the reader, were way far off my track! With titles such as "The Wrong Husband, The Wrong Lover, The Wrong Whayever!
Thought she was scary then, am relieved she'll be incarcerated for life.
One thing did disturbed me. According to a reporter some weeks ago,, her
books apparently have been selling, as a direct result of the trial. I'd cringe to think her royalties would be direct deposit to her benefit. Just curious! Because, without a doubt she'll continue to write from her jail cell.
What's next???? The Wrong Warden, The Wrong Jailor or, The Wrong Cell Mate????? Who can know?
I suppose one of the Streaming giants will produce a movie. May I suggest they title it "The Wrong Murder".
Perhaps she should have conducted her research a bit deeper than she did on that pivotal day!!!!!!
A man is incomplete until he is married. Then he is finished.
When I heard this story, I hoped you would make a video on it. Thanks, Dr. Grande!
This is a local case for me! I've been watching the trial, and her behavior was odd to me. Her answers for why she was there that day don't make any sense. All those books, all that research, all to kill her husband who was beloved by the community and completely fail to cover it up. How did she think she would get away with it?
Because narcissists live in a world of delusion!
In fairness, a Glock 20 (in 10mm) is a very popular choice for bear protection in the PNW and other locations, so using one for self protection while picking mushrooms in the forest is not far fetched. A 9mm Glock 17 would not be ideal, but it would be usable to protect oneself from predators and other defensive circumstances, despite their ugliness.
I’m pretty sure that she was the seller and buyer of the insurance policies, she made them to where she would receive more money if he were to somehow die at work on the job. I’d love to hear your take on the case of Joanne Chambers and Paula Nawrocki. Turns out I was naïve about mushrooms and truffles.
There have been a number of violent encounters between mushroom hunters in western Oregon. Its fairly well-known locally, so getting a handgun to protect one's self is actually a fairly reasonable explanation for a new handgun.
Even though the subject matter, your calm, clear and honest demeanor is soothing. Thank You for your work.
They had her “bang to rights” as Emma Kenney would say. I was actually fearful that they would find her not guilty.
It could be interesting to speculate on "why the husband didn't see it coming". 🥺
Time for a “Biggest mistakes to avoid while killing your husband” novel directlly self published from jail 🤣🤣🤣
I've had a lifelong fear of those killer mushrooms...sometimes I'm too afraid to leave my home. 😱
MI - There is a cute exchange in the movie "Get Shorty" when Chilly Palmer is taking to this other guy (forget the character?) Most people die in their beds! Me, I'm going to sleep in chairs from now on! We can't escape! May as well live our lives! ( I now know you are mostly joking🤔😘)
@@bthomson Hahahahaha 🤣. I like it!! "you know what" I'm going to start living life on the edge and sleep in my bed every night!! 🤞🏻🤣🙏🏻
Self-published author is a euphemism for someone who was scammed by the self-published industry. Sad. I wrote a 140 page booklet on diet and nutrition and came within an eyelash of getting published. After that I was approached by a handful of self-publishing houses that I had not approached at all. They kept after me to spend a few bucks which I was well aware that it would be about $10K of my own cash and I would have to do all of the legwork myself - which is the key. I was fortunate to understand the difference between real publishers and scams.
I have only heard of one person to have ever been successful with a self-published book. I don't recall who it was, however he was very successful.
Brilliant analysis. You have an extraordinary ability to concisely, interestingly, humorously and logically connect the dots.
I really like your style, Dr. Grande...glad to have come across your channel in seeking answers to my own mental health questions and pure curiosity of disorders in general. Thanks!
I'm an author and sometimes I do weird research on the internet about psychology, guns, etc. and I'm afraid that one day I'll get caught up in some dirty story and my research history will be taken as evidence. 😨 So I write novels, yes... but I stress. 🤪
Just don’t murder anyone
This is the funniest episode yet. Thank you for the humor with the least moisture ever.
Thank you much for sharing your thoughts on this case. It's so interesting and you make it fun to watch because of your sense of humor...I love it! I Iook forward to seeing your next vid, as usual.
One of Nancy’s responses on cross that hit me hard - when she referred to the food he sold on a cart as the CRAP! I promise you I heard her right because I listened to cross over and over like I was going to be tested later!
Yes, “crap on the cart”. Shows how she really felt about Dan. So glad she’s in prison. Poor chef brophy.
Since they turned off all the comments on this case, I am making my comment here. The reporter Amanda Arden has determined that we don't know the motive for the killing when, if you followed all the trial, it was very obvious that it was about the money! Why make it more than what it was or try to put some mystery behind it... she was tired of him and the lifestyle and wanted the money!!!! The prosecution proved that. She even took the blood son off a policy and made it out herself and had several policies on him after they became "officially married" and was put on the deed of the house! They were not married for most of the years they were together.
Hello Dr. Grande ! A million thanks for the new video !
It wasn't clear to me, but I'd certainly hope that none of these life insurance policies were ever paid out due to Brophy's inactions. Also, Dr. G's great ability of analysis of human behavior, his superior knowledge of weapons and the fact that he may be from New Jersey (or at least recognizes the implications of hailing from there........and I speak from specific experience here) most definitely makes him a triple threat! Never try to fool or attempt to get anything over on Dr. Grande!! :>) Jim C.
Once again, the one liners are brilliant!
Oh hi doc. I was getting worried when you had not yet posted. Happy to see you're doing well
Good morning Dr Grande .I personally believe she killed her husband, for the money. I have no doubt that she didn't have retrograde amnesia. I agree with everything you said at the end of your analysis. Thank you Dr Grande. Brilliant analysis and sad topic.
You crack me up, Dr. Grande! 😂 Excellent analysis, as always! ❤️
Ahh the old "..my brain was disrupted..." defence 🤔 🤥
OMG! I just saw you, Dr.. Grande, at the end of the Lifetime movie regarding Nancy Brophy! I was saying out loud, I know that man! He's great!!!
Dr Grande, your sense of humour is priceless. Every single time. And presenting it with the level of seriousness, superb. Thank you. I have to be careful when eating and listening to you at the same time. Cackling can be deadly with food or drink in the mouth. Much love from Hungary
Great analysis Doc.
Dr. Grande, You have the best sense of humor. Thank you for starting my day off with a chuckle.
Thanks, Dr. Grande.
Happy Friday! I hope you and everyone else watching this video has a lovely Memorial Day weekend!!!
💚💚💚
KP - Right back at you!💐
@@bthomson 💜
The suspense element in her writing... :D your sense of humor!!! I just love It, with that straight face I always laugh and laugh!!
I used to see you all the time on RUclips. I haven't seen you in a long time no, not until I just Googled the Nancy Brophy case. Spot on as usual! Not sure why you don't pop up anymore when I open RUclips. I just wanted to share that with you. I watched many of your videos. I was always sure to like them as well. I hope all is well!
Daniel deserved better, he was much more physically attractive. In true crime, we learn that usually the more attractive spouse usually is the killer, he/she wants to start over with someone of higher value.
Nancy to police: "I was in bed writing a murder mystery book when my husband who has $800K life insurance got shot dead in the back and chest.".
Police: "Hhhhmmm ok."
Dr. Grande, I have to acknowledge your dry sense of humour. It endears me as my late husband also had the dry sense that many might miss. I hang onto every word of your videos and find them very educational. Congratulations on your huge following!
Your analysis on memory is fascinating. I agree that repressed memories or whatever she called it is not a real thing. What a crazy woman.
I have a TON of repressed memories of my childhood, for good reason. I believe they happen to everyone, even for Nancy Brophy…just not in the context she was trying to use. She’s one magical creature if she can have retrograde amnesia BEFORE a tragic event happens.
Wow, Dr. Grande, you've outdone yourself with this one. Even I can feel the heat coming off of those burns.
I love to check in with Dr Grande to hear his thoughts on crazy cases like this.
Hello Dr Grande, it's always good to see you have posted. I really enjoy and appreciate your time and work on your videos! Many blessings to you and your family and followers ❤️
I absolutely love your humor! Reminds me of the English lol
MS - We like being included in blessings! 🍀
My dad had dry humor and I find it in abundance with you. Ty
Thank you for bringing to light the underreported mushroom versus truffle conflict.
Brilliant!
I can't get over her surly behaviour under questioning! Arrogant and entitled IMHO 🇬🇧
Thank you Dr.. Grande. Appreciate the humor. GUILTY!
Dr. Grande no doubt nailed it here with his evaluation.
However, this is also an example of how circumstantial evidence can be used to obtain a conviction.
The term "preponderance of evidence" comes to mind.
When this thing unfolded, I was thinking, there is really no smoking gun here. There isn;t even a murder weapon. No ballistics gun barrel match, no eye witness accounts, no witness to the murder, no DNA, no fingerprints.
The prosecution did an excellent job of tediously presenting the incremental evidence that eventually became overwhelmingly obvious as to who was responsible for the murder.
It was argued that the victim and the person that murdered him were an inseparable loving couple.
That may have been the perception that Nancy Brophy worked hard at portraying (for many years), but I'm willing t bet that she controlled the relationship unconditionally. That's what manipulative sociopathic freeloaders do for a living.
She saw Dan only as an object that she could control and exploit. When she came to the conclusion that her own personal life could be dramatically improved should he happen to die, she began to formulate a plan to ultimately have him die.
This elaborate "ghost gun" idea for a novel may not have even been her first draft of a plan to have Dan die. She may have started by considering other methods. We will probably never know.
The most shocking part of this thing is that you can be living with person whom you believe to be your soul mate only to find that the whole thing is a complete act, and in this case, they are plotting to kill you to cash in on an insurance policy.
She now has all the time in the world for working on novels. Unfortunately, she will have to give up on her daily Starbuck's latte.
She starts out her first novel "It was a dark and stormy night; "
How would a perpetrator know about the small window of opportunity?
How about: it is less likely that an uninformed perpetrator would know about the small window...
Another great video. Thanks.
wat
Six of one, half dozen of the other.
Just saw you on the Teal Swan Doc on Hulu Dr. Grande! Delightful to see you outside of RUclips!
Glad to have a change from the constant content of the turd/Depp trial that everyone else is creating.
Me too.
Dr. Grande I Love how you drop sarcastic shade 😂😂😂😂
Here in Montana harvesting morel mushrooms is popular. Where they grow in the back country is bear habitat. It isn't safe to go with out a firearm or bear spray.
Just pointing out.....if the parts weren't assembled it wasn't a gun at all. It was parts.
I just watched the Dan Brophy Memorial video. Dr. Grande and chef Brophy share the same sense of humor ❤️
I feel like she was smart enough to get away with this murder had she cared more. I truly think she was 71, and had the mindset well if she gets caught she gets caught. When you're not happy at that age, what do you have to lose?
@@cht2162 how does that apply to what I said?
I'm sure she will be more comfortable in prison
I guess what Henry meant is: when they're young, people think that there's not much to live for at 71. Once you're closer to that age, you realize that young people have a rather condescending view on age. You do have a lot to loose at 72. Let's assume she could expect another 10 years to live and will spend them in prison (where it will probably be less life expectancy). 10 years do not seem much for someone who views this from the perspective of a, say, 30 year-old who still has 50 years ahead. These 10 years are worth a lot more for a 71 year-old than for a 30 year-old. And being in prison knowing that you have no hope of getting out until you die is probably not something to be indifferent about. That being said, I don't excuse her deeds. She killed her husband for money and deserves to go to jail. She could have had her last 10 or 15 years to live as a free woman had she chosen to look for a different solution.
Then again...what some elderly experience in care homes is not much better than prison, and people usually end up there without having murdered someone. 😳
1st Call11-B: 71 is not old by any means / my husband is 73, going on 33, and still acts as if he's only 40 years old.... He's not in the 'financial trouble' that this lady was in, though, but only because he has been careful all his life not to get into that type of situation. Insurance policies are dangerous temptations for people who let their financial life get out of control, but 71 is in no way an age to be 'letting go' and not worrying about the consequences of your acts.... This perpetrator wanted to live - with the money. She was just delusional, in my opinion.
@@Faristol7 You can’t generalise. I’m in the UK. The average age of death here is 82. My late boyfriend died at 57. Our Queen’s mother died at 101.
You're a caution, Dr. Grande.❤️
This is probably one of your funniest takes to date Dr. G! I laughed so hard I snorted, especially in hearing how battle-hardened the mushrooms had become. Don't ever change Dr. G, you are a gem. By all accounts, so was Dan Brophy, may he RIP.
"oh, I figured" - enough said.
Hello Dr. Grande🥰 Thank You For The New Video! I'm Running A Bit Late On My List Of Videos To Watch 2Night, Bc Today Was A FAR BEYOND CRAZY DAY AT WORK🥴🤦♀️ (Today Was A Day For The Books!!!!) YES, INDEED IT WAS Y'ALL..........🥴😂
I love this guy's dry sense of humor.
The good old Dunning Kruger effect! Thanks for that - I enjoyed the Attack of the Truffles. 😊
I really love the humor!
This was interesting as always, and this time you had me laughing.
Thank you
I was surprised when I saw coverage of her trial on the local news (I'm in Oregon) and I hadn't heard anything about it on any of the many, many, MA-NY true crime channels I follow on RUclips.
Dr. Grande's channel, of course, being the best!💎
