This case is so sad and infuriating. The saddest part is the fact that someone killed a 12 y/o child in this horrible manner and the same person is roaming around freely in society. It’s astonishing to think that people can commit such heinous crimes against children, it brakes my heart every time.
Brilliant analysis Dr. Grande, thank you.❤️
I agree. Who knowingly hurts another human being let alone a defenceless child?
@Jave Nilson what are you even talking about?
@@pwallace5359 He (or she) was referencing the "brakes" instead of "breaks".
Blackmailing pedophiles online is an easy way to take out your frustrations. Extract cash from them and out them anyway.
@@pwallace5359 to what are you referring ?
I feel like this is a case in which the victim got lost amid the fervor. That poor boy will never have justice now.
garrett is my sons cousin are they are doing everything they can so we can get justie the police covered his up tooo save one of there own... his mom ex was a cop and i think he knows exactly whats happened
Or uncle Brian in Parishville@@trailer_trash_Barbie
@@RastaSaint7 yes brian is a good man lost his brother to a anerysm then too loose his nephew the only thing left of his brother just crazy..
@@trailer_trash_Barbie Y was Brian spotted at the apartment that day by his postal worker gf, then lied and said he was not there?
It's sad to think of all the unsolved murder cases caused by/contributed to by law enforcement incompetence.
Yeah, lets go nuts and defund the cops. Then there wont be any unsolved murder cases caused by/contributed to by law enforcement incompetence.
Like with targeted individuals electronic harassment stalking tracking..
It's more like a cult of wealthy people who do this... illegal research and just hold us against our will.. they laugh because still up to today the victims can't get public attention needed for us to get the medical and legal investigation
Dude, Hillary killed that boy. Quit being dumb
Or ,that were committed by actual officers of the law...smh!@
This case isn't actually unprovable, its just not the suspect they wanted it to be!@
SHAMEFUL investigation..
Yes, but that wasn't the case here. They didn't have enough evidence to convict.
People need to be far more careful about who they bring into their children's lives.
impressive: victim blaming…
Absolutely totally agree
I thought about it a bit more since you posted. If people have not had good experiences in childhood themselves, maybe disrupted living arrangements, fractured schooling, well it kind of sets them up for failure. On the one hand not fit to become a parent so young, romantic relationship doomed to fail and no-one has noticed that it is allgoing wrong
@@dd-jm1md Victim blaming is a morally idiotic concept. It's perfectly appropriate to blame someone - victim or otherwise - for something they have genuinely done wrong.
@@dd-jm1md it's not victim blaming. So many times women shack up with almost complete strangers trying to fullfil their own needs regardless of how it affects the children. Although predators are often charming in the beginning, the mother has the responsibility of making sure someone is a safe person to bring into their children's lives... especially if they end up living together. If a mother let's her two year old play outside alone near a street, and a speeding car hits that child, of course the person behind the wheel should be held responsible, but most people would hold the mother accountable too. This situation is not as extreme of course, but children don't have a choice of who their mother brings into their home.
Dr Grande💐. Thank you for leaving little lamp’s light on. For me it symbolizes the heartaches of victims and loved ones. And their names are not forgotten. Thanks Todd.
Poignant and sweet observation! Thanks.
garrett is my sons cousin
when i think of killings on youtube, i always imagine unsolved crimes from the 60s. the 2010 cases make it really creepy they're all so recent.
Yes indeed. I had this same feeling the first time I heard Chandler Halderson's birth date and realized he - an adult - hadn't even been born when I became an adult.
Like, it seems as if far too little time has passed for an ovum to now be capable of making such poor life choices, let alone murder his parents to hide them? 🤷♀️
This is so sad ,it always breaks my heart when innocent children are murdered. I doubt they will ever find his killer. Thank you Dr Grande. Brilliant analysis. Sad outcome and topic.
The killer is Nick. The judge had “reasonable doubt” or didn’t want to convict Nick the black man because he was afraid of repercussions.
Arghhh stories about children being murdered are endlessly disturbing. It’s worse when they get away with it.
I know I should be sympathetic to the mother, and I am sorry she lost her child, but having had a mother who brought strange men into my life as a child, it just infuriates me when a mother places the well-being and happiness of her children lower than her romantic life. It's an automatic response on my part, I can't be objective.
@@PutinsMommyNeverHuggedHim If that really was the sole reason she broke up with him, then that's great on her. I'm not denying that and obviously, she didn't deserve having her child murdered. I'm just saying that in general, the situation hits a really deep nerve. As I said, I can't be objective about it. I'm not trying to claim I'm looking at it without bias.
@@PutinsMommyNeverHuggedHim There are a ton of other people on here talking about how the mother brought this man into her child's life. That's undeniable. And when a mother does choose to bring someone into their child's life, someone who proves to be harmful, that is, ultimately, prioritizing romance and sex over your kid, even if the mother does have the sense to end it after awhile. It's still her actions that have impacted the child.
I'm sure she's grieving and regrets it, but it's too late for her son, isn't it? He's the victim in this, and I have a very hard time due to my own experiences feeling sorry for a mother who brought a man into her children's lives, who then went on to victimize them. Is she the worst person in this? Hell no. But when you have kids, you have a much larger responsibility than dating.
Also, given the very similar situation, I don't feel I'm projecting onto a stranger. I'm giving the point of view of a child in that type of situation, which you've obviously never been.
It was the ex husband
You're correct.
What about Nick should she have known? By all appearances AND on paper the men in her life showed no indication of violence.
This case haunted me from the first time I heard it. If not Nick, who on earth would murder a 12 year old boy in his own apartment?? I'm not convinced Nick was involved but if not him who and why??
It was definitely Nick. Sloppy police work all around
@@nealkelly9757 The fact that the daughter texted when is dinner and his ankle he hurt..;
Nick did it in my opinion
It also has haunted me since i heard this story.
John Jones, the ex before Nick, who Tandy filed a report against for pushing her. She felt he was a threat to her and her children. He also happened to be an ex sheriff and extremely jealous of Tandy and Nick’s relationship.
I just watched a documentary about this case. How John Jones was allowed to investigate this case with his colleagues is beyond me! Nick got railroaded by the police, did Not have an ankle injury (which was claimed by police after watching him coach soccer, not after photographing him NAKED). This whole thing was DIRTY. This review by Dr. Grande is missing a lot of pertinent information or confuses claims.
I agree. Jones seems pretty damn shady and I wouldn't doubt if he was involved somehow. He has more of a motive than Hillary.
I agree, Jones was involved. The letters Tandy wrote against Jones fearing for her families safety is proof enough for me. Seems like Dr.Grande is just following the rest of the publics opinion
Nick is guilty as hell the moron
They never compared the fingerprints or shoe impressions to the guy who was walking Fifi in the rain during the time of the murder.
Disturbing. Was that Jones?
John Jones is the one that gives me the creeps. His actions scream guilt. Ms Cyrus filed complaints against Jones twice, but not against Hillary. Disagreements between kids and live in partners are very common. There is no evidence that Cyrus and Hillary parted anyway other than civil.
I agree
this.
yes he my garrett is my sons cousin john jones needs too be n jail for this
JJ was caught on camera even from various business cameras walking his dog at the same time GP was being murdered. He fully cooperated the entire time.
@@bellabambina2737 yessssss
"More frightening after watching an episode of Dexter". Dr. Grande....I just can't.....you are hilarious.

@@ZYX84 Thank you, Vonna☺
Based on the evidence, Nick sounds good for this. He lied about going home, and he was the only person that had a motive to do this. The police and prosecutor screwed up big time, and a murderer is walking free.
John Jones could have been outside playing look out for someone already in the apartment
@@leivaandre Whatever.
But the finger and foot prints didn't match. Considering this was a 12 yr old boy did they ever look for a younger suspect?
hillary hated this kid ... the hbo "documentary" downplayed it .. all they cared about was the way the cops treated this child murderer... disgusting
That’s not true u really think a black man jumping out a windows in broad daylight would have went un missed
I remember this case. He was circling his victim from school. He knew the boy was alone and killed him for ruining his relationship with his mom. He injured his ankle when he jumped through the window. He got away with murder, because of that bad prosecutor, not because he’s innocent.
The fingerprints on the window and the footprint didn't match that's convincing of innocence.
Thats what i wax thinking I still think he did it even though lack of evidence it make sense what u said
As a long time local from this town... nick was not the one who did this crime...
@@Katd1974 Why! Because he’s black??
@@andreaxxx2239 because he hated that kid and he did it...and take another look at who you are accusing of racism .. "demetrius" .. killers don't always leave fingerprints, but they do get ankle injuries after jumping out of a second story window and telling a bunch of lies
Just watching the documentary and have to say...1+1=2. According the DA Rain's interview, Nick Hillary has surpassed Usain Bolt as the fastest man in history when he "jogged" .4 miles in 45 seconds. That means he ran at over 32mph to Garrett's apartment. Usain Bolt's quickest time is 27mph. OBVIOUSLY THIS WOMAN CANT DO SIMPLE MATH.
What are you talking about? He is on camera following the kid home from school and going the same direction to his house.
“He might not be credible because he deviated from his original statement.”
I know this case. Dear mother's, don't let scumbag men move in with you and your children especially right after you meet them. Being without sex for a little while ain't so bad. Children come first always.
True, but you know, "once they go Black..."
@@brucejohnson9696 Said only by black men....
@@Wolf-qh2lk ...and the Kartrashians.
She left the guy. Don’t blame her.
@@gge9824 Ok. She left him because he was a violent nut. Of course had she waited a little before letting him move in with her young son she would have found that out before she gave him a key to their home. Common sense.
of course he‘s guilty as hell - who else could have had a motive - if it looks like a duck…
Yep, no question about it. That Podunk police department and that ridiculous prosecutor let him walk. Can only hope karma catches up to him...
Never heard of a random killing
@@PutinsMommyNeverHuggedHim That's what I saying lots of people get murdered without a motive. Sick people out here.
The other ex the police officer Jones had just as much motive and was in the area. I wonder why he doesn’t get the same absolute guilt opinion 🤔
Please never serve on a jury.
100% chance Nick did it. He was stalking Garrett right before the murder, he was the only one with a motive, and he had an ankle injury from jumping out the window. He was also oddly wearing a t-shirt that said, "I murdered Garrett Phillips."
I'm sorry, what's this about a t-shirt?
If he did it, according to the DA's own words...he is the fastest man on Earth AND he's A LOT more quicker than Usain Bolt. Nick is innocent do the math. .4 miles in 45 seconds 🤣🤣🤣 no way in hell or Potsdam
@@talesfromtheleashexpatdogl1426 the numbers must be off because the evidence against him is overwhelming.
@@yellowjacket5995 on the contrary the fingerprints and foot print didn't match. Nothing puts him in the house at the time of the murder.
He wasn't the only one with a motive. The abusive ex boyfriend cop who's an egomaniac, or some bully kids from school are both possibilities
Nick killed him. Stalked him, followed him home, killed the kid and then busted up his own ankle trying to flee. Common sense dictates.
Hell no . If your so sure then place him in the house ? Show me evidence he was there ?
@@blackhand805If you seriously believe Nick didn’t do this you’re insane. Nick literally is on camera following him home from school, he headed the exact same direction, lied to the police about going home and had a key to his house.
I'm a black man and I'll say NICK IS GUILTY AS HELL 😅, USED THE OJ SCRIPT RACIST TOWN OVERZEALOUS DETECTIVES 🕵️♂️
@@jblaze1336 As a white guy, that’s how we should be ending racism too - by acknowledging people are guilty regardless of skin color and holding people to equal account is how we see past color and move on to a better tomorrow. I don’t know if you’ve seen the HBO documentary about this crime but yeah I agree, I think it’s obviously Nick that did it. Black or white, no body should be killing anybody. If we all said that our world would be much better.
Dr grande 😊😊😊 I LOVE listening to your videos while I’m at work (housekeeping at a nursing home, 8-4) and I’m not even going to lie, it’s almost therapeutic listening to your voice and your take on MANY different topics. Thank you so Much for hours and hours of content 💜💯
Were you tempted to lie?
@@eadweard. jeeez not that I’m aware of, but who knows
One thing about Nick being at the school: He lived with the family. He knew their rules and routine. Garrett had a firm rule that he was to come straight home from school and do his homework, and only when done could he go out to play. He broke the rule that day and stayed after school with friends to play basketball in the gym. He called his mom right before being seen leaving, and told her what he had done. She told him to leave immediately, go home, and do his homework. That's when he was seen on the skateboard heading home. So Nick had no idea that Garrett would be at the school at that time. He would have expected Garrett to be home doing his work, as was his rule and routine, which Nick knew. Nick would have had no reason to go to the school at that time to find Garrett. He wouldn't expect him to be there.
You seem to have intimate knowledge of this case. Care to share any more info, I’m intrigued? As a side note, that picture of the mother & the cop boyfriend seemed odd. She seemed scared and he seemed to be holding her knee forcefully, not in a loving & comforting manner.
Unless he went to Garrett's home to find him and found he wasn't there and tracked him down at school.
@@redshiftexperiment Yet no one saw him at the home and he went twice... keep reaching.
@@raggaduxjones It has always been very odd that her new boyfriend was allowed to be involved in the investigation into her old boyfriend.
he only got away cause of skin color, but they will answer for their crimes in the future, kharma
The vibes I got from Jones was so sinister, he could easily have motive. Ugh, the cops investigating were so biased and wanted to nail nick from the start, same as the prosecutors. What a dodgy lot they were, disgusts me every time and it’s not uncommon in the US. Let’s see what your take on it is…….🤔
No you don’t move another man into your apartment a month after meeting them! Not that she deserves this but it’s very dangerous and codependent. Let him keep his own apartment until she gets to know him!
Totally agree with u I definitely think it was the sheriff
I know it’s hard to find information on right now, but if you ever decide to read into the “Black Widow of Lomita” murders, it’s an interesting story.
I remember this case and personally think he’s the most logical person to have committed this. But, I can’t imagine him climbing out that window. And, why in the world wouldn’t those people changing that tire notice someone coming out that window? This is frustrating that poor kid will never have justice. RIP young man.

I think Nick did clime out the window and hurt his ankle. The police probably got the timing wrong.
You can't imagine someone climbing out of a window & you can't imagine people preoccupied with changing a tyre mightn't notice someone climbing out of a window? That's a pretty poor imagination you've got there. Or maybe something else is making you have a difficult time imagining it.
If your head fits, your entire body fits...
Its not that hard to climb out of a window.
Are you serious? I can't believe some of these comments. He obviously climbed out the window after they left at about 5:20. Dr. Grande did such a poor job researching this, he got many things completely wrong, including the time Nick arrived at Ian Farley's apartment. 5:21 (and probably some seconds) was when the phone call was made. It lasted 2 minutes and 20 seconds and then Ian hung up when Nick arrived.
Nick pulled an OJ, everyone knows he did it,reason his life to this day sucks
You’re a workhorse!!!! Wow! Mr Production!!!!! The amount of content you pump out is nothing less than astounding! You spoil us!!!!❤️
How can a huge adult strangle a child to death. PooR Garrett. Thanks Dr Grande for your analysis.
Single parents: BE CAREFUL WHO YOU LET AROUND YOUR KIDS! If your kids get a vibe, believe them. Black men being unfairly targeted: historic 😐. Whoever did it, karma is a mother-effer...😉
Unrelated to the case but can I please just point out that it is not normal to work as a bank manager and in a bar? I hear of so many cases like that in your videos, but it only happens in the United States. Everywhere else, being a bank manager is a well-paid professional job that would amply cover the outgoings even of a single-parent family. People in that position do not also work in bars. What a country.
People may work in a bar for other reasons besides money. But money is a good plus. I know people that work as servers part time that have great jobs
Apparently the average bank manager salary in the UK is 44k USD. In the US it's 86k USD.
@@justanotherguy4283 Sure you do, champ.
@@eadweard. Both ample for a parent and two children to live on, but if she was earning the latter then it is ridiculous that she also worked in a bar.
@@icturner23 Well in the US, hustling to earn more than the bare minimum required isn't considered ridiculous. What a country.
LOVE your new background, Doc!!! 💙

Why do you think that Nick did it? In his police statement, Jones said he was on a conference at his office (22 Depot St, Potsdam, NY) from 3:30pm to 4:35pm but was caught on video surveillance at his house at 3:50pm. Jones says his conference call started at 3:00pm but he was late coming on at 3:30pm.

YOU MY FRIEND ARE A CLOWN
Agree with you that the police wanted a scalp. Someone to be strung up in the public square, as it were. It's a shame the police couldn't approach this with objectivity and hard evidence.
I’m here for the generation of interesting dialogue after watching this informative video!
Me too! Let's dialogue 😂 I think Nick prob did it, the ankle issue is just too coincidental imo
Hey hey lezgo shoot sum alienz...
@@RebeccaGallin I wonder how he would have hurt his angle during the attack? You’d expect scratches on his face or arms or something? Poor kid 😔
@@lostandfound5145 I think initially they thought the only way he could leave was out the window and that's how he hurt it when he jumped out. This was a dateline or 20/20 a long time ago. That was the states theory anyway. Made sense too. Imo
Omgosh if it wasn’t him then who would do this horrendous crime!? Someone who wanted the mother back as a romantic partner and too many things were inconsistent ~ Nick was scouting for new talent in the rain far from the field and he took a left instead of a right to exit the parking lot? You can tell by the way he was driving that he was stalking Garret and he had a scratch on his ankle? The only reason he got away with this crime was because of his race and he hired a TEAM of lawyers from his own town to prove it. And he was in the mother’s apartment watching her sleep? That’s concerning and indicative to narcissistic behavior. That poor mother! But I do agree she shouldn’t move her boyfriends into her apartment so soon after a breakup, this is certainly dangerous! Not that she deserved this! May God bless her and her family.
This! 100%
This case is so disturbing. Im praying this gets solved.
It was solved, but the police and prosecutor totally screwed it up.
@greenbeagle13
The case isn't solved.
No one is in prison for murdering a 12 year old boy.
A better Prosecution would've not only Nailed Nick to the wall but would've had a solid Frame placed around him as he would have AND SHOULD HAVE been their main focal point!
RIP Garrett Philips
GOD BLESS
🌿💕🌿
The narcissism of this man, who got away with murder but still demanded a complete public exoneration on top.
Well he might well have been innocent.
I wonder what his daughter thinks about him now and why she felt ok to lie for him about eating dinner. Did he ask her to lie and why? To know or suspect your dads a murder (and of children) and even though she probably didn’t like Garrett, the daughter must be eaten up inside. I hope she finds Gods truth in her heart eventually and comes forward to admit she lied.
Tandy and John Jones need to be questioned more. Also the creepy uncle
Absolutely…it was either John Jones alone, or both he and Tandy.
@@amandaduerk5866How hateful to say someone would murder their child with no proof.
I enjoy the show, but "I think Nick was responsible" and he was prosecuted out of "frustration and incompetence"? I think the word "corruption" needs to be in that second clause, and it should cast serious doubt on the first. There was, according to multiple judicial reviews, never enough evidence to suppose Hillary was responsible for Phillips's death. A conscientious DA refused to prosecute, another DA (who later had her license suspended for hiding witness statements relevant to this case) attempted to prosecute but the case was dismissed for lack of evidence. She finally got an indictment after a public campaign, but Hillary was found not guilty based on the preponderance of the evidence presented. The exculpatory evidence the DA hid was a statement by a witness placing Jones at the crime scene (doesn't mean Jones was there, but the witness said so, and the DA hid the statement). The prosecution did not challenge the decision to exclude DNA evidence in large part because the amount of Hillary's DNA present on Phillips was not consistent with Phillips defending himself against Hillary but was only consistent with Hillary being present somewhere in Phillips's home or being in casual contact with Phillips at some point in the recent past, which were established facts. The new prosecutor stated, after the revelation of the witness testimony placing Jones at the crime scene, that he had no case but dutifully saw the trial to its conclusion out of respect for Tandy Cyrus and her family. Good on him (maybe?) but in his closing argument all he could do was rest his case on the video of Hillary turning left out of a parking lot instead of turning right. The prosecution had nothing more than that. They never did. They had much more on Jones, however, starting with a witness placing him at the crime scene. The video of Jones walking the dog was not viewed as completely exculpatory because he lived so close to the crime scene (i.e., a reconstructed timeline does not exclude the possibility of Jones committing the crime and getting home to walk his dog). Jones had a record for being violent and confrontational, and Tandy Cyrus formally complained that he was stalking her and that she feared him. Jones also tried to get back at Tandy Cyrus after the breakup by filing a retaliatory lawsuit against her. Jones also actively attempted to monitor the investigation using his position (records of his calls are available elsewhere on the internet). Was Jones guilty? He was never accused, and, even if he were accused, he is innocent until proven guilty, but once the hidden witness testimony emerged, the prosecution all but abandoned its flimsy case against Hillary. Does that mean Hillary did not kill Phillips? I suppose not, but as of this moment there is no evidence suggesting that he did, despite the efforts of a discredited county prosecutor and an interested local sheriff's deputy to create that narrative.
Could you please look at the case of Nicole Morin? It boggles the mind - would love to hear your analysis. Thanks!
That guy wouldn't be safe staying around Potsdam.
Hello Dr. Grande, thank you for finding these interesting cases for us. You present and describe the stories very clearly. Thank you for your work. Best Regards. ❤👍
This story sounds like an episode of Colombo. AKA The greatest detective show ever.
I followed the case on TV on dateline. I was so sure Nick was innocent. I was so “sure” he was a singled out black guy. Then as I watched the case I was convinced he murdered Garrett? There was things Nick said that raised hairs on my back. The cues of his actions denoted, imo, his guilt. His aversions of: “I don’t recall” as questions were asked him…….these raised huge red flags. And the injury of his ankle was a result of him jumping out of the window, imo. His statement of moving furniture doesn’t jive. He’s an athletic soccer player who’s pretty strong. Old weak folk may get injured from moving furniture? But not an athlete like Nick. He claimed the ankle injury was before Garrett’s death? Seems like a lie? It was later proven that the scrape he had on his ankle was fresh. Unlike what he said: “I injured my ankle days before his death”.
He also didnt answer questions as to what furniture he was moving? Something an innocent person would gladly answer to.
And you can clearly see he stalked Garret home on the cctv at the school Garrett attended. But Nick claims he went to the school to watch a soccer game? But it clearly shows him leaving the school parking lot as Garret was leaving with his scooter device. You can see Nick reversing out of the lot as Garrett left school. Coincidence? Nick also says he went to the assistant coaches home after “watching his soccer game”. I believe he went there after quickly killing Garrett, then Nick hurried over to his assistant coaches home to establish his phony alibi. I honestly feel there were heated words exchanged between Garrett & Nick? Heated words that only the two of them know. Garrett may have said racial slurs that, perhaps, caused Nick to want to strangle him then and there? I believe Nick deeply begrudged the little boy for racial slurs and also ruining his relationship with Garret’s mother. I simply believe Nick was so vengeful toward that “little punk” that he literally wanted satisfaction in seeing him dead by strangulation. Im afraid that Nick got away with murder
Perhaps Garrett did not like the way Nick treated his mother and that is why he did not like him. Otherwise, what boy would not like a sporty and fun boyfriend? Why assume Garrett's dislike is racially motivated?
AS A BLACK MAN ILL SAY NICK IS GUILTY AS HELL, HE USED THE OJ SCRIPT ,OVERZEALOUS DETECTIVES 🕵️♂️ DUMB A TAD RACIST WHO VIOLATED A FEW OF HIS RIGHTS AND HE BEATBTHIS CASE
RIP Garrett.
Great job of the neighbor who checked when hearing something AND actually called the police. Unfortunately the outcome wasn't better.
Certainly seems like Nick had a motive, but the rest of the case seems less certain.
Poor Garrett Phillips.
I wonder if they are ever going to solve this case.
Very sad case.
Thank you for the video.
He was in the lot where there was no view of game, didn't leave his crv but left seconds after Garrett going same direction AWAY from home. That w motive told the story. He got away w murder cause they made it about race
@@simplybreathing4775 Do you think the motive was revenge on Garrett because of the breakup?
John jones had more of a motive than nick
@@btetschner I dont know if revenge necessarily...but definitely didn't like the boy and hate drove him. Adults killing a child is almost always done w rage

Let’s do this. Great way to start the day. Thanks, Grande.
Interesting that a bench trial was chosen. I would like to know the lawyers’ thoughts on this. I would guess that when a case is circumstantial and / or there is risk that a jury might be biased against the defendant, a bench trial is a better option for the defense. I often see comments on this channel that demonstrates a tendency to massively overvalue certain unreliable evidence. Blood spatter analysis, interpretation of emotional reactions, and of course the rare but shocking “dog psychoanalysis” come to mind. A judge would probably assess these more accurately than a random juror. Of course if the case against you is very strong then you would want a jury. You only need one person to dissent for a not guilty verdict.
Actually, if only 1 juror dissents, or if the jury isn't unanimous, a mistrial is declared in a criminal case. The defendant can be tried again in the event of a mistrial because there was no verdict.
Maybe the defense opted for a bench trial thinking a fair judge would better understand reasonable doubt and would be less likely to go on just emotion.
A jury might find this guy guilty because he was about the only person who would have had a motive and his story had some problems.
He probably did it. "Probably" isn't supposed to rise to the level of the "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard, yet it often does just that when decided by highly subjective laypersons.
Bench trial from I’ve seen in past is choosen when the evidence is paper thin. Judges base their verdict off all evidence and not emotion.. jury trials seem to include both when deciding
I tend to agree with this assessment. If I were innocent and there was even a hint of racial bias in the community, I would much rather have a bench trial to eliminate as much bias as possible.
@@GradyPhilpott I am very familiar with this area and it is extremely racist. There was anger that a Black man from out of town was dating a good White woman who was local. It would have been very difficult to find an impartial jury.

Such a sad case again. Great points as usual. Thanks Dr G😊💚💚
Hello, my friend, what a sad situation, I always feel heart broken when all children are murdered. I wish and hope that some day, this perpetrator with be caught so this little boy, deserves justice.
Garrett wasnt a thorn in Tandy and Jones relationship. He was a thorn in Tandy and Nicks
Thank you for all your outstanding videos Dr. G! This is a throwback request, I’m fascinated by the life of Andy Kaufman and would like to understand him better. Was he a pathological liar? Was he delusional? I’d like to understand what motivated him, why people loved him so much and trusted him so little.
U think 💬🤔 2 much gurl!!! Just throw a caution in the wind 🌬️🍃 sometimes!!!
Have you watched Man on the Moon? I agree his life would be interesting for Dr.G
I believe they went right after Nick, a lot of it to do with her dating John prior to Nick. They used to be friends & he was angry when she started dating Nick. Tandy got order against John out of fear for her and boys he had a bad temper. 🌹🌹Garrett🌹🌹may you find Justice rip beautiful boy
If you believe Nick is innocent your insane. He literally is on camera following the kid home and goes in the exact same direction as him and then used the excuse that he needed to talk to an assist coach next door
@@johnnolan2356No fingerprints, mismatching footprints, no DNA, no corroborating phone records, and there is no recording of him following anyone. If you truly believe what you’re saying then double down and give me a link to the video or a site I can see it on. I don’t believe you.

Good morning Dr. Grande! I have some good news I got my BA of psychology from UTSA this week! What are some internships that focuses on helping people with mild/severe autism and what jobs can I do with counseling, I was thinking of the state hospital. I live in San Antonio TX.
Excellent!! Great job. Good luck
If I may be so bold… You might want to welcome them in and then remind them that “welcome to the jungle we got fun and games we got anything you want “remember parent adult child, victim persecutor rescuer, over compliant child rebel child, critical parent! And then you have the lonely adult over there see he’s waiting… You can go ahead and play these games with people psyche forever… It’s like American baseball you can have extra innings if you like… The middle game can go on forever the idea is to heal people and move them on down the line… Keep the train moving congratulations on your new endeavors I appreciate you appreciating yourself you are a champion in this world most are just sitting on their hands.🪁
Thanks for your analysis, Dr. Grande.
When the cop arrived at the apartment how come he didn’t bust the door down like they do all the time yet waited for the landlord to come with a key this allowing enough time for the killer to escape
You think you're going to make me crazy moving your plants around. I had to check older videos, you think you sneaky, and I thought I was losing it. Good touch, like a real prodigy.
I’m not convinced that Nick did this like many people.
His car was not seen anywhere near the apartment.
So where did he park? If he was going there to confront Garrett and this was not planned like the police said, parking somewhere else screams premeditation.
No confrontation was ever heard.
No forensics implicate him.
So he wore gloves?
I’ll state again that the police and the prosecution’s position is that Nick went there to confront Garrett and at one point lost control. Wearing gloves would indicate premeditation.
Did he successfully clean up all evidence indicating that he’d been there while the officer was on the other side of the door before he allegedly jumped from the window?
I’ll add that no one would jump straight from the window that high up but would hang from the sill and drop. Nick’s fingerprints were never found on or near that window.
He would have to strangle Garrett, jump from the window, injure himself, run back to wherever he parked his car without being seen by anyone or caught on any surveillance and then drive to the assistant coach’s home completely calm and not disheveled. I’m sure his presence would have raised some type of suspicion in that neighborhood running to and running away from the apartment later.
No one ever came forward saying that they saw a car similar to his parked on any street.
Also wouldn’t Nick have to know that Tandy or anyone such as Garrett’s brother was not already at the apartment or would arrive shortly upon his own arrival or during this confrontation?
It seems like a high risk to enter the building hoping not to be seen by a resident and walk into an apartment not knowing if Jones was asleep on the couch.
It could be that he did see and drove in Garrett’s direction that day.
Other than that, I need someone to place him at the crime scene.
You must have read the judge’s mind! Great points.
He followed the poor boy home.
Yea I agree that John Jones followed him.
How unusual for a soccer coach to have an ankle abrasion. I still cant believe that investigating officer took that as proof positive of his guilt.
cause they police are covering for john jones
garrett is my sons cousin
John Jones Is A Key Figure.
1. Brown house next to the building of Garret.
2. John Jones, Brandon Murphy and Amos Singleton.
Gregory Brown said he saw John Jones.
I knew Nick for many years. We taught at the same school. One of the most intelligent, insightful, and laid back people I’ve ever met. While anything is possible, I just can’t imagine him doing anything like this.
People said the same things about Ted Bundy. You just never know.
I don't think it was a coincidence that he left the school right after Garrett did. I don't believe he got that wound on his ankle from moving furniture. Tandy woke up one night to find him in her room looking at her. What does that tell you about him? The jury got it wrong
Hey Dr. Grande💞 Thank you for the new video! I'm excited to hear your analysis about this case. I learned about this case years ago & it just hurts my heart.
You’re lovely although your photograph and your smile looks forced… You’re not who you portray yourself to be… I have your DNA… I’m sorry your mom and dad were not in a good mood the night they created you but I’m glad that you are not angry now.🪁

@@Faristol7 😂 it seems that timing is everything. If we get there within 30 or 40 minutes of it posting we will get one!! 😊
I’ve been waiting a long time for you to cover this case. And like always you omitted things. When Nick and Tandy. was together they both had filed police report on John. And John also had threatened to kill her kids in the past. why would Gerrett Philip open the door for Nick if he didn’t like Nick. No I witness saw a 6 foot 2 black man jump out of a two-story window in a white neighborhood. Even the judge knew they had nothing on him. Also they did not obtain a warrant, they made him strip naked inside the police office of hatred. You gotta watch the dateline episode.
Obtain a warrant for what?
Also, what does it mean to "file a police report" on someone? Was he accused of a crime? If so, what?
@@eadweard. A court order is probably needed to photograph a suspect naked, without consent. Maybe that's what they meant by warrant?
Thank you for this comment. Hate when only part of a story is portrayed to make a person seem guilty. Not sure why he doesn't give the whole story
@@billyirvine1914 Do you notice that as well???
Always interesting.
Humor is spot on.
Thank you.

Hello, Dr. Grande!🙋🌵🪴🌵🪴🍀🍿hi, everyone!☄️🪐🐞🦋🌺🦉
You’re the man Dr. Grande!!!!
This is a really really good Dr. Grande. 👍 thank you sir
It's not because Nick is some random black guy that he was a suspect, it was because of his dating history with the boy's mother, his lies, and the fact he was in the area during the time of the crime. He certainly could have done this horrible crime. Only God knows. May Justice prevail.
I agree it upsets me so much when people pretend it's about race when clearly race played no role
Also angers me when character witness also say no way. So many acts of violence against children are done by people that others wouldn't think would do it. It's wrong to assume u think u Kno anyone that well
I watched this case on Dateline again today. I clicked on this link to see the alternate theories presented by the host. I agree that those are possible theories like a burglary or a sex predator. But how often have we seen cases where a burglar murders a child like that or a sex predator follows them home? I'd say those cases are rare and the video of the accused man's car and the role the child played in the breakup make him the most likely killer. Did the judge get it wrong? The judge said 'not guilty', not 'innocent'. If he did it, I place some of the blame on the mother for bringing him into her son's life.
Thank You, Dr. Grande! Enjoy your night!
So sad that an innocent child had such a horrible mother.
You mean it’s horrible that she has a terrible vindictive boyfriend that killed her son? Don’t blame her for the idiot killer
Good morning Dr. Grande and happy Monday!❤️

It's a really thoughtful and clever analysis as always. It sounds to me that Nick was quite likely culpable but the law is there for a reason and I agree with the standard of beyond a reasonable doubt. I'm saddened that someone might automatically be a suspect because they have black skin. By the way I'm not black though I am of mixed race heritage
That wasn't why he was a suspect.
You might wanna re-watch the video.
He was a suspect because of the motive and overwhelming evidence against him.
@@jaymike3302 there was no evidence that’s why he’s free now🤷🏽♀️
@@krystalflame9726 He was caught in many lies, especially about his whereabouts. His injured ankle from jumping out the window was excluded on a technically. The DNA on the victim's fingernails was later proven to he his (Nick's) after the technology improved.
Dr. Grande's voice is so soothing It's like asmr.
My personal theory is It could of been some random unhinged adult townie that Garrett pissed off. This is just an example; but lets say Garrett was skateboarding and cut some angry adult in a car off without apologizing or sometime petty like that. This person was unhinged and annoyed and followed him home. My question to this whole case that still has me scratching my head is why couldn’t they pull proper testable DNA from the skin under Garretts fingernails? I feel like that could of been a smoking gun to solving the crime.
It's so sad there's No Justice for Garrett. I think Nick is Guilty.
sad story... I am wondering what Nick's car was doing around that same area and time where the boy was playing. Also, sounds like the dna they found was likely Nick's... The case was messed up by the law enforcement.
You are amazing, Dr. Grande! You just never stop. Thank you. Cheers from Nashville, Tennessee!
Wow y’all really need to watch the documentary called Who killed Garrets Phillip, there was a video filmed Nick on the soccer field walking with NO ankle injuring, Tandy ex boyfriend John Jones ( who is a cop)was acting very suspicious he also had a motive. He was also in the area where Garrets was walking home. The cops were so incompetent and ignorant it was disgusting to hear them speak

Nick LIED to the police, he said he was at friend's home when everything happened, and where was he? At Garrett's school without no reason and we see clearly how he was chasing Garret at the right moment Garrett left school,After her mother broke with Nick, Nick entered one time at Garrett's home without permission with a key he copied previously and He was the only person with a reason to kill that poor boy, the case is clear in a trial with jury Nick was guilty, but a bad decision let that poor boy's killer free
That woman certainly did not have much luck with men, starting off as a widow and then just slithering right along... 🤔
Excellent video 📹
A responsible parent should always put the welfare of their children first
We love you Dr. Grande ❤
Nick has a supporter here. I just watched the dateline show. There is nothing to suggest that he is a violent man, or that he is so psychopathic that he would take his anger out on a twelve-year-old. The fact that he had a cut on his ankle, and turned left instead of taking a right, and numerous other things, strongly said to me that he did not commit this crime. Two people said that he was with them during the time frame when the crime took place. Also the fact that he said I don't recall so many times, to me is more of an indication of innocence, because somebody who was smarter about it would be able to come up with a story. I understand that people want closure, but it would be a double tragedy to put an innocent person behind bars.
I've just started watching crime shows, and I've seen about 20 of them. And none of them was a white person treated the way this guy was treated during his initial interview and subsequent release in which they did a strip search and didn't give him his wallet or his cell phone back. It looks really bad, a black man being stripped naked with 4 white guys standing around looking at him in an interview room.
They did the same things to the other suspect, who was white. Stop with the victim thing. Nick did it because Garrett got in the way of his relationship with Tandy. He even broke into her house a few times after they separated. It’s not rocket science.
Mothers like her make me sick, your world should be your son, not your many lovers. At least now her son won’t get in the way of her dating life.
I watched a show on this case…..heartbreaking & clear the ex-boyfriend is the culprit…..may karma do its job
I'm so sorry! Garrett!💔💔💔🙏🙏🙏🕊️🕊️🕊️ I was thinking of another case earlier. I'm sorry!
Nick has five kids and Never been married? Not impressive. I think he is guilty, just my opinion
When you hear a person is a bank manager by day and a bartender at night, I immediately smelled a rat.
