    I'm grateful for my mom every single day for making sure I grew up in a nonviolent household. This and many many other things, of course. When I look back at awful horrible people I went to school with over the years, I realize they probably were being raised in violence. My grandkids tell me about classmates constantly who are obviously being raised in horrific conditions.
    Anyway, thanks Dr Grande.

    That being said, I do understand the argument for the death penalty in cases of murder for financial gain.

      It’s considered more heinous to plan and plot someone’s murder over a period of time (months in this case) than to kill someone in the heat of the moment. To ponder and think about killing someone for that long and then to deceive and plan it out takes a very cold hearted person; I have less sympathy for them than I do for a drive by murder by gang members (for example). At least with the latter it’s usually a spur of the moment decision.
      All that time plotting Doug’s murder and not once did she reconsider and put a stop to it. Not only that but she was more than willing to let someone else take the blame for it afterwards. So not only did she lack compassion or empathy for months prior to the murder but she continued to show no remorse afterwards.

      @@alexblaze8878 That may be true but you’re referring to one aggravating factor. Still, the murder was in no way atrociously heinous & cruel. There was no torture involved.
      In addition, there were mitigating factors present. The bottom line, however, was that the state’s star witness got caught in a number of lies. Further, he took a deal to save his own skin. It Is a bitter irony in our law when the guy who personally committed the murder ends up with a lighter sentence.
      If people familiarize themselves with the Gregg decision (the SCOTUS cases to
      reinstate capital punishment: Gregg v. Georgia, Jurek v. Texas, and Proffitt v. Florida) it’s clear that our contemporary use of the death penalty is not in line with the Gregg decision.

      @@ailleananaithnid2566 Personally committing the murder doesn't necessarily make for the the worse offender. If the driving force behind a killing happens to be the one not involved physically, that person still deserves the worse punishment. The fact is, without Kelly, this murder would not have occurred. And it's likely she would have looked for another co-conspirator to do the dirty work if he'd been unwilling. Charles Manson is a pretty good analogue here. He didn't personally kill anyone. He also suffered horrendous abuse and neglect in his childhood. But he was without even the capacity for empathy, and so was Kelly. In fact, Manson's neglect is corroborated by witnesses and records. Kelly's isn't.
      It's not ironic that people receive lighter sentences through plea deals. It's a reality that we have to accept if we want less innocent people in jail, and more guilty people in jail.

    I’ve never heard of “financial narcissism”! I’d love a video on that, Dr. G!! Loved your analysis of this case, I’d never heard of it before. I also found it odd how Doug was supposedly killed so “easily” after he had so many opportunities to NOT be killed by Greg…like, why would Doug (or any typical person for that matter) NOT try to at least put up a good fight for his life that was being threatened?! I mean, he was bigger in size compared to little Greggie!! AND Greg only had a knife, which isn’t good, I know…but come on, it’s not like he had a firearm held at the back of Doug’s head or on his temple the entire time! I found it so unbelievable that Doug did NOT even TRY to physically injure Greg, get the knife from him, or just simply bolt and run away as fast as he could?! Why not even hit the brakes super hard while driving, or create a kind of “uproar” in the streets (like screaming out the window or even just WAVING WILDLY out of it for Pete’s sakes!) to draw attention to the car they were in? I know I sure would’ve tried pretty much all of the above had it been me in the driver’s seat, including driving to the the police station, or heck, ANY busy parking lot would do just as well too! 🙄 Ummm I think most ppl would do the same, just as Dr. G stated! Just more proof that Greg couldn’t have really been the “mastermind” behind Doug’s senseless murder! Actually, using the term “mastermind” when thinking of those two just seems so wrong. She may have been smarter in other areas than Greg, but I doubt this woman killer was a genius or anything like that. Just money-hungry…so greedy that she got sloppy…well, she let Greg get too sloppy also…so ofc she got caught! 👏

    Another excellent analysis- which also points out our incredible lack of mental health services, and huge flaws in our so called "justice system". Lawyers on both sides of the case dropped the ball. This is one reason the death penalty should be abolished in our country! Justice shouldn't depend upon having the best defense money can buy! The holes in Greg's story are huge- yet he was able to take a deal. You have shed an important light on the effects of severe trauma throughout one's childhood and adolescence. I wish our justice system was better equipped to address this- unfortunately our system is focused on punishment and revenge. Not justice, and certainly not rehabilitation.

One second you’re there, and a split second later you’re gone. I’m compassionate even for death row inmates in that I don’t believe we should make them suffer-their punishment is death not torture or undue suffering. There are faster, more efficient ways of executing someone than using lethal drugs.

      @@coiledsteel8344 The problem with the death penalty is that your probability of making it to death row falls on a few basic factors that include a highly troubled upbringing resulting in serious mental health issues, the likelihood that you were brought up in a single parent household and that you’re poor and unable to mount a good defence, either to disprove the state’s case, or to present mitigating factors. Aside from all that, there are enough exonerated to show that it’s not a fail proof system. The many years of appeals is very costly for the state, notwithstanding that the death penalty makes those on death row live practically in solitary confinement which is an 8th amendment constitutional problem. This is the opinion of many liberals and many conservatives.
      There would be fewer murderers in the US if social welfare intervention happened early enough, if single motherhood wasn’t so bloody attractive, if more fathers were involved in their children’s lives instead of gangs taking the role of ‘brothers and fathers’. It seems all of these are ignored except for the final intervention which is homicide by the state.

For every murderer who grew up in such circumstances, there are many people who grew up in similar difficult circumstances but killed no one at all. Likewise, there are many people who grew up in decent homes, who went on to commit murder. Ultimately the truth is that every step you take is a choice you are making. No one else is making your decisions. You are the ultimate decider.

      Its more about protecting society. There have been death row prisoners, that have had their sentences commuted to life, then been relased after 20-25 years. Plenty of these people were only stopped becuase of being caught and admit that they would have continued. I also think that it is a way for the authorities to rectify their own earlier mistakes when criminals have been released early, allowed to plea to lesser crimes, have had charges dropped etc so they are free to commit further crimes, in short they could have been stopped years earlier.
      Execution has to also act as a deterant, lots of accused have plead guilty just to take the death penalty of the table. It also has to do with public perception about the criminal justice system, if someone commits heinous crimes for decades and then gets a sentence of 25 years but is eligible for parole, that wouldn't be considered by a majority of the public as a sentence that fits the crime. Also, look at some of the more famous crimes around the world, some sentencing in European countries and small island nations are very lenient.

    Gissendaner: Given the number of abusive relationships and references to death/killing, how can anyone with a sane mind deny the function of the "death wish" as part of the human apparatus? Freud's speculative treatment of this impulse is developed in his work Beyond the Pleasure Principle (1920). We can speculate that life presents situations of enormous tension and stress and the death drive is merely a response to that uncomfortable situation. Bataille develops this theme using the terms "continuity" and "discontinuity" in his work Erotism (English translation, 1986). Discontinuity is our separation from one another: you in the video audience, Dr. Grande as the speaker. There's a gap. Gaps make people uncomfortable. We seek "continuity." Erotic behavior is always pointing to the limit condition: death or extinction. The facts are diverse and plural. Only the simple minded believe that life is only about living. It's actually about dying. Notice that "life," especially in Kelly's case, was just one delay after another until the final resolution. Even the chemical used to kill her was subjected to delays. Delay, delay, delay. That's life. But that seems true of all of us. Until there are no more delays, and no more posts. The most basic "trauma" is birth itself. It's always in the background.

They are only used as an investigative technique, in hopes to gain confession/information from the suspect...never admissible in court. They might as well use a tarot card reading, but the police will act as if it "shows" truth or guilt, which it does not. If the suspect goes along with the charade, he or she may just "crack" and confess true and/or false information, even though there is in reality no such thing as passing or failing a polygraph.

      @@Keish03 Police can also pretty much lie about anything to attempt to coax a confession from a suspect. For instance, they can say they have proof/evidence that you did it, they can say well your friend already told on you, etc... The only limits they have in interrogation are that if they have to let you go and you can verify they lied, then of course you would realize the questioning was all for intimidation and for the purpose of obtaining a confession. If you refuse to be questioned and request a lawyer, they also must stop without an attorney present on your behalf, whether it's your own or a court-appointed one. Especially if it's your own (paid out of your own pocket) attorney, the cops will not even try the shady tactics such as "lie detector" tests, screaming and intimidation, and/or lying about what they do or don't know about the crime committed.
      I'm sorry you went through that experience in school and I can only guess that it was used as a means to get students to reveal personal and/or damning information in order to weed out undesirable and/or "unfit" candidates. It just seems highly unethical.
