One psychopath went to prison, the other did not. Very sad case.
Yup. No wonder they were best friends. Like Leopold and Loeb.
And the girls from the slenderman crime!
I hope wherever he is in the world he's miserable and suffering 😪
@@ladymonacoofthebluepacific2571 Nah, he is in charge of a nuclear power plant. :(
Indeed
I don’t know any college student who would want to maintain a friendship with someone who sexually assaults a 7 year old. Most people would be disgusted by that. The fact that Jeremy didn’t even seem to try and cover up the fact that he was assaulting her when David saw them makes me question their friendship and dynamic.
Insane
@@norsechick I actually agree. I think you are definately correct in assuming that, because most pedos would feel some sort of shame and fear of prosecution if someone witnessed their action. the fact that he didn't at all feel the need to hide makes me think that tbh they were in this together. I honestly think that david cash is a sociopath, most people would at least pretend like they felt guilty about not doing anything.
Probably the two of them had assaulted people together before.
exactly
This definitely feels like David has seen Jeremy do horrible things before.
I remember him saying he didn’t need to help the girl because he didn’t know her. Which blows my mind.
Hate to say it but probably would not have helped even if his sister! The guy is obviously without empathy!
@@bthomson Society creates these people, society deserves these people.
The problem is if he had stayed in the bathroom for long he probably would have been accused of taking part in what was going on and been falsely convicted. He made the smart move legally in getting out of there ASAP. I do think he probably should have contacted the police and an attorney though. Holding people accountable for not stopping crimes committed by other people is a slippery slope. I get that his actions can come off as morally wrong, but I don't believe what he did should be considered legally wrong. Such laws are next to impossible to enforce.
@@monopalle5768 we live in a society
It may surprise you that many people don't help in these situations, even if it's their child or family being hurt.
HOLY SHIT that statement he gave in an interview was jaw dropping. That statement alone could be a case study. Zero self awareness, completely callous and self absorbed.
l disagree. he is only self aware. 100% self aware. no room for others.
Could easily be on the autism spectrum. Not everything is so sinister.
@@EmmaDaisy and not every bad behavior has a diagnosis behind it and it’s very damaging to people with that diagnosis to assume so.
@@DottieMinerva I apologise if I offended anyone. I think most bad behaviour can be potentially diagnosed as a mental disorder or personality disorder, particularly if it’s persistent. He reminded me of a family member on the autism spectrum and that’s why I left my comment. Keep in mind the spectrum is very broad and fits a lot of completely contrasting behaviours, not all people are the same in this “category”.
It isn't his responsibility to be the world's police. Nobody should be forced to talk to the police about alleged crimes that don't involve them. How is it any of his concern when he didn't even know the other individual?
He saw his best friend hurting a little girl he should’ve intervened no excuses!
Exactly no excuses PERIOD!!!!
No fing excuses!
he was the "lookout" he only got off because he was a "leftist" from radical Berkeley
@@mikeswiental4815 Congratulations, your comment is literally the stupidest thing I've read today.
No excuses. He said he didn't even feel guilty. He could have saved her life. smh.
Mothers look the other way when their child is being sexually abused by a family member; family members will look the other way when a child is being abused by the parent; whole families will let children rot in foster care cause the parents couldn’t keep taking care of them. They’ll go on about their lives like nothing in the world is wrong.
People are selfish and broken. It’s a mad world.
I think people are mad at this kid saying it as it is and did not pretend.
The truth is what caused outrage was his lack of pretending and letting his real thoughts come to the surface.
The guy turned the mirror to society. This is why I respect more people who do "the right thing" because it is so rare,
Yes, that kid was a piece of shit, but how many others turn a blind eye for selfish motives? ( as you described in your examples )
I'm telling you right now if any of my 5 nieces or nephews go to foster care.. Thats where they stay I dont have kids dont want them. my sister opened her legs and had them I'm not stopping or ruining my life cause of her bad decision.. Innocent kids yes.. But not my burden. You take them and the government perks if you want. I'm gonna live life kid free like I intended
Well! You sure told us!
@jim Child abuse is not low. Child abuse in some form is actually high. Most of the time the victims keep sexual abuse secret out of fear of destroying family calm or friendships or threats of violence. Up until recent times beating kids with belts until they bled was not considered abuse unless any child was hit with the belt buckle. I recall 3 of several murders by parents that were reported just last week.
Psychopaths seem able to compartmentalize parts of their lives so that events are discrete and do not impact upon them. Most people could never have walked away thinking that that baby girl might be being sexually assaulted never mind murdered!
Was the girl's father charged with anything? Negligence??? ANYTHING???
I hope so, child abuse for sure, drunk, not supervising her, being warned several times. He was the first fail for that little girl. Awful.
I was wondering the same thing. He was so irresponsible to leave his children in a casino, where they shouldn't have been in the first place. And the fact that he would rather gamble than take his children to a hotel showed he was too selfish to be a father.
@@tinawindham6958 yeah two young man on the loose murdering little girls they find alone...not a problem fir you?
Wolf: I think u misunderstood…the dad left her alone, he is an unfit parent. One kid is in prison, thank God. The other should be. What r u talking about.???
No, but he died 2 years later.
Makes sense that he was friends with Jeremy… this one is truly chilling
This comment.
He excused his friend because he saw potential in him... like little black girls are void of potential :(
Who reported Jeffrey Epstein?
Do you know anyone who ever stood up on behalf of a victim? In your experience?
I noticed psychopaths tend to flock together....
Exactly what I thought. He simply didn't care about Jeremy's bad behaviours
David Cash is a perfect example of human nature at its worst.
What does it mean to be human? Now or ten years ago! A young kid, totally defenceless! Go out and yell for help at the VERY least! Come on!
Not really.
Not really what?
His parents must be proud. They raised a terrible human.
Who cares? I’m of the “if it doesn’t affect me, I don’t care” attitude. It’s the only way to live. I don’t care nor help, it’s not my business and it’s not my problem. If I saw a female getting sexually assaulted I wouldn’t do anything since I’m not a white knight. It’s not my job
I remember when this happened. Hearing the details is God awful and I wish the girls father and the killers friend would have been sentenced. That poor little girl had pure trust and everyone let her down.
One person KILLED her!
@@bthomson One person killed her, one neglected her and another stood and watched whilst she was being violated. Its a pity that only one of them was charged.
True!
@@jackspring7709 Absolutely. The father failed to make sure she was safe at all times. The killer and the friend. Though, I think the father is probably suffering enough.
@@LDiamondz you would think so. But the way he excused his behavior and pushed his responsibility off onto his son makes me feel like he might not be. Probably the brother suffers the most, even though he was just a child too :/
In France, we have a "Non assistance à personne en danger", which is failure to assist a person in danger.
I don't know if any person who criticizes it in France. People consider it absolutely necessary.
Does at least calling for assistance/law enforcement/medical attention count as assisting though?
I just think it is so sad that we even need a written law, so people cant just leave someone for dead.
It is a natural instinct, for me personally, if I see injustice, harm, danger to others, to stand up and say something, even when my voice shakes, and my hands tremble!
Friend and stranger alike.
We need that here
Nothing is ever enough, when it is illegal to do nothing! Illogical bullshit becomes law in places full of illogical people. Maybe, if everyone is housed in prison for the potential to be a non-active bystander, we will achieve the perfect, crime-free state. Invest in prison systems now. They are the future. (However, any profits can only be spent on what is allowed into your cell. Everyone loses when no one is allowed their own agency.)
That's because France is another rights-violating shithole, like all countries, except the United States of America: the only moral country in human history. Mostly thanks to that wonderful constitution. Unfortunately, the socialists, egalitarians, and altruistic monsters are trying to destroy it.
“What society needs is more empathy and less narcissism.” Brilliant analysis Dr. Grande.
Thank you for always bringing clarity into messy situations like this one, I so appreciate and value your thoughts.❤️
"Value" is the perfect word!
@@bthomson Thanks Bruce.😊
Hey! Have to step in! Rejane is FAR from simple! Read her comments!
Rejane , beautiful comment 😊🎋🌹🌷
@Bolangerfi if you don't like it,don't comment 😠
You would have to render me unconscious or kill me to keep me from protecting a child in a situation like that. It wouldn't matter if I knew them or not. Children always deserve protecting and your relationship or not having one for that matter doesn't change that fact. I just can't fathom the reasoning. If you're not capable of committing the crime how are you capable of being complicit in it? How folks can make that moral distinction is beyond me. I mean the dude could've just told a security guard or even an employee and there's a 99% chance that girl would still be here. You can be indifferent, you can be a coward but you can't argue you don't know right from wrong when you obviously do. The whole situation is sad and disgusting. That poor baby was failed by everyone involved including her father.
Agreed, though as Dr. Todd mentioned, many are fearful if they try and intervene.
I can see why, you don't know if they have a weapon and you may become a victim because you're a witness now.
@@RB01.10 I agree that's why things like telling or getting help are an option. Especially in a scenario where someone would be caught in the act. I don't expect folks to not be scared, I don't expect them to have the same morals I do. That being said if you know right from wrong your excuses are nullified.
Because u have a soul and have a conscious. Cash is a monster!!! A true sociopath!!!
I wonder if that was the first time he saw his friend do that. There is a reason they were best friends. I think he liked watching girls get assaulted or was the look-out.
I was wondering the same. They were both heartless individuals, and as best friends, they would have been aware of each others personalities. Most likely not the first time they engaged in victimizing behavior.
Same here. That Jeremy was "caught" yet continued implies at the very least he knew David wouldn't do anything. I figure this had happened multiple times before, but this time it only received attention because he killed the girl. (If that's the case, that would be a sick irony: that previous victims aren't known BECAUSE he left them alive, and they didn't tell anyone what happened for all the reasons child sexual assault victims often don't come forward.)
Exactly. That's exactly what I think.
No need to make spurious accusations. There is absolutely no evidence David Cash has ever done anything illegal.
Wow. I would never let somebody treat an animal like that let alone a child. Crazy.
never say never
An animal? Probably unlikely that you'd happen upon a man buggering a heron in a public bathroom.
@@eadweard. lmaoooo😆
eb - Why a heron?🦃🐔🐓
@@bthomson Brass Eye!
I'm a bit concerned about what else he's possibly witnessed and subsequently chosen to overlook.
Exactly.
In general, it isn't a crime to witness something and not report it. If someone wants to overlook reporting a crime, that's their personal decision and should be respected.
I'm not excusing his behavior in the least, but it makes me wonder if he was born that way or if as a child he witnessed some horrific shit and learned to ignore it as a survival strategy.
@@chad3232132 It IS a crime, watch the video until the end! and No that's a decision that should not be respected, and thankfully it is a crime punished by law, hopefully when someday someone rapes you or beats you to death, hopefully you don't come across someone like you.
@@chad3232132 that's interesting, because in our country (Central Europe), it is a crime not to report certain crimes (like abuse, murders etc., there is a list of ca. 30 of such crimes that people are obliged to report, if they know about them)
I don't know if Cash himself has ever committed a violent crime, but I believe he has the personality that would definitely do so if he knew he could get away with it and it would benefit him in some way. He seems pretty intelligent so hopefully fear of getting caught would stop him, but that total lack of empathy is frightening.
He is what I like to call a 'Law Abiding Narcissist'
*_Revelation 20.11 Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. 14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire._*

@@mrsprissy2583 Satan cam to steal kill and destroy. But Jesus came to give life and to give it more abundantly. You can't blame Jesus for evil. We all have free will. And we all have our own spiritual battles. This is pure evil.
@@cht2162 yes, and even if he was afraid of being blamed, he knew what was going on in that bathroom and could have called 911 and told them that something bad was happening in that bathroom right at that very minute, and someone needs to get in there IMMEDIATELY. he could use a pay phone if he didn't want the call traced to his phone. and he could have left the offenders name as the perpetrator. or not, if he was still afraid.
This might be one of the saddest cases I have heard. Rest in Peace Sherrice, you deserved much better. Everyone failed you, including the justice system. I can't believe this disgusting person gets to walk free among us.
I saw a grown man hitting a young girl violently in the face. I yelled at him to stop. The guy got out of the van and came after me, screaming in my face. The men all walked by in the parking lot and pretended not to see. Men won’t cross each other to defend a girl or woman. It is rare for a man to help, despite the cheap sentimental twaddle.
Its socially acceptable for a guy to punch another guy in the face, the same cant be said for a women. A man stepping in has to be ready for physical repercussions, a street fight can easily be deadly, so maybe you shouldnt draw such broad conclusions from one incident and a narrow view
Was it a domestic violence thing? I know guys who absolutely will not step in to help because domestic violence is insane.
There have been instances where someone attempts to stop domestic abuse just to be attacked by both the victim and abuser.
A lot of men don’t think it’s worth it to get into the scuffle.
@@renim2974 My thoughts exactly.
I'd call for help, but yes it's best not to endanger your own safety as a result. As the person wrote, if you make yourself known to the perpetrator, you then make yourself a target.
I hate it when people say "a young girl" when they probably mean "a young woman". It makes things ambiguous.
A girl is a female below 14 years old. A "young girl" is all (actual) girls.
The use of "young" actually makes me thing it was a young WOMAN - because nobody would use "young" for a Girl...maybe "little" for especially young ones. But it's impossible to know whether it was a woman or an actual child (in the biological sense [
Wow! The typical “it is not affecting me, not my problem” mindset. Awful! You would think that if David even “cared” about his friend, he would have done all possible to stop him from committing this crime. Idk, yell, scream… do something at that moment… David obviously did not care about a little girl being murdered by his so called “friend”… and as you said Dr. Grande, it seems his feelings were genuine, he truly did not care…
It scares me to realize there are more people like David in society.
Great analysis Dr. Grande :)
I did not know at the time, and do not know to this day, why the Nevada authorities did not charge David cash as an accessory to the murder. He knew the assault was going on, and then after his friend admitted the murder, he helped him escape by giving him a ride back to California with him and his father in the car.
Yes!! EXACTLY!! There are existing laws that he could have been convicted under!!!
@@MrJeffcoley1 I’m assuming that giving someone a ride is not a crime, even if that person just recently committed a crime.
Somewhere between 2% an 5% of humans are Davids, i.e. narcissistic sociopaths. Let us hope that David goes swimming an begins to go other but everyone present says they don't know who the hell he is and cannot do anything.
@@Retrosenescent "Aiding and abetting". Even assuming there was some defect in the Nevada statues that somehow allow a person to knowingly help a murderer flee after the crime, instead of fixing it the state legislature came up with this stupidly specific "duty to report" BS law.
Apparently, as long as you're only the getaway driver in Nevada that's A-OK!
That poor girl probably thought that he was gonna help her....I can't imagine how she felt when this POS did nothing. How incredibly sad, I hope she can Rest In Peace
Well she shouldn't have put herself in such a situation. He had no obligation to talk to the police.
@@chad3232132 I'm extremely scared for any children around you..
@@anjaxtv Be scared for life then. Because I believe that you have no responsibility to save anyone from anything. That should be the conventional wisdom. Empathy is overrated.
@@HelloWorld-dv2tg wow you're so cool and edgy 😂😂
@@anjaxtv Keep thinking that the only people that exist believe deep inside that people have a duty to care for others. You'll be surprised how many different people can exist and unironically believe in things.
"Security! Security! Help! A child is being attacked in the restroom!" That would have prevented the murder.
I wonder if Mr. Cash is being assaulted one day in front of another person, he would want the onlooker to help? Also, that poor girl’s father should be punished for negligent homicide, reckless endangerment or whatever laws apply.
We can all see the allure of an eye for an eye but this is a SOCIETY! We have to be better than our most elemental selves!
You’re right Dr. G, what an awful confluence of negligent and callous behaviors which resulted in the loss of a precious little girl’s life. This story infuriates me to an inconceivable level. Thank you so much for your thoughtful message.
Center yourself with calming technics.
Infuriation is tremendous fear mixed with adrenalin.
That is a sure fire way to increase ones ego and result in increased repressed emotion.
Extreme emotion obscures intellgence and results in irrational decision making.
Repressed emotion is also responcible for many diseases in the body.
This is not your direct experience.
We don't do the world a favor by adding to disfunction or increasing the collective ego.
This fellow will benefit from therapy.

@@bthomson It’s fascinating how Dr. Grande thinks in such an organized manner. It’d be funny if his closet at home were just a jumbled mess. He throws something on from the heap, pants or no pants cuz it doesn’t matter and then “Hello, this is Dr. Grande!” 😂
@@annal7364 Lol 😂
@@rejaneoliveira5019
Dr. Grande is extremely concienciencious.
Everything in his environment is orderly and organized.
If one remembers- when he showed off some of his mechanics tools( garage) they were all very neet and in professional mechanics tool chests.
There is nothing out of place in his home for very long.
Ocean scale~ conscientiousness- 10!
I could use some of that!
That poor little girl. So many let her down. :( May she rest in peace
She was only 7 years old 😥 "So, these two are just staring at each other" 😶 What a horrible horrible crime. Thank you for your detailed portrayal Dr. Grande. I always knew that most people are just cold.
They both treat this little girl like she was disposable. Rest in paradise Sherice.
Most people wouldn't react like this narcissistic coward. Trying to blame society,or "most people" for what these 2 cowards,& p&$$ies did...is ridiculous if you ask me.
I don't think "most" are, but we sure can do way better than scumbag David.
*Reminds me of that Seinfeld episode*
I feel bad for that poor little girl. Imagine at 3am wandering around cold, hungry and tired in a casino. It’s just awful.
Years ago, I was walking to the home of a friend when I heard the screams of a young child. When I got closer to the screams, I looked and saw that a grown man was viciously spanking a young boy. I approached them and yelled at the man stop. When he stopped to look at me, the child pulled away and ran. I told the guy off for beating the child. Some people would refer to this as discipling a child, but I saw it as abuse of a minor. Any decent human being would have done the same as me, I believe. I always thought that humans innately had a desire to protect children from harm. But I guess I'm giving some people too much credit. If I ever again encountered a similar scenario, I would react in the same way.
Thank you., ❤️ may someone come to your rescue if needed. I sleep sweeter tonight knowing there are people like you on this earth🌹💐🌹
Glad you did not get stabbed. Good for you matey.
No offense but that sounds really dumb and risky. Next time call the cops. It’s great that you care about others, but you should also care about yourself equally. He could have killed you and hurt the child even worse.
@@Wapluigi All emergency medical personell are MANDATORY REPORTERS, so if they are some of your "neighbors" saying MYOB, THEY need a dime dropped on them. JS.
@@tammyburke9453 totally agree with you.
my best friend use to bully younger children on the playground. when I caught her,I told her bullying is wrong and i dont abide. She either had to stop or lose my friendship. She chose my friendship.

No one stepped in for me when I needed it.
Same here. I understand what you're saying. So much in common. ☺️
Ditto.
That's not too smart, because you don't know if they have a weapon and then make you a target.
My husband and I listen to these analyses and talk about it as it goes along. In the end Dr. Grande always has such a great summary. My husband said “I don’t know anyone who can talk about a subject with such clarity, lack of personal agenda or bias and just sticks to the facts”.
The choice of subject is the crowning glory here! Dr Grande knows that he can " lead" us to higher ground! He is our guide to critical thinking and greater morality! Not a cult but maybe!😇
Critical 🤔
Discerning thinking, careful thinking, not shoot from the hip thinking!
Perfect words by your hubster.. that's it exactly. Again Thank you Dr. Grande
"is my life supposed to stop for days and weeks, and months on end?"
it's so interesting to me that this is his reductio ad absurdum. It just seems so obvious that the time frame needs to be in terms of years, (decades, lifetime,) in order for this line of argument to be persuasive.
'In order to keep society safe, those with empathy, and who are not narcissistic, must remain vigilant. They alone are burdened with keeping society safe for those who will just happily stand by and do nothing.'. Thanks for that.
By walking away it seems as though he's an accessory to the crime.
Yes! Thank you. My thoughts exactly. Totally different scenario but say he was driving his buddy to the bank, his buddy jokes he is going to rob the place before he goes in. Then the buddy runs back to the car says he just robbed the bank with cash in hand, says lets go. The guy drives off with him and they go about their day driving around like nothing happened. He would be an accessory to the robbery plain and simple. So why not in this case where a little girl is molested and murdered? I really don't get this case and the argument they had no legal reason to charge the guy. It's the first time me hearing of this case and it makes my blood boil. I'm surprised Dr. Grande didn't mention the bill passed was specifically for children under the age of 18 only. So only can someone be obligated to notify if a child is involved and would be punished if they fail to do so when a sexual assault or violent act has taken place against that child.
He did see him assaulting the girl, and just let it happen. I agree, he's an accessory.
Maybe he actually WAS the lookout, and made up his reasons for not reporting. 🤔
@@LDiamondz No he isn’t. Not by the definition of the legal term. Being an “accessory” to a crime requires you to “assist” in some manner to that crime. He did not assist; he was initially oblivious to what was happening and later witnessed a crime in action when he went to find his friend. He then chose not to intervene in any way upon discovery. He did not help his friend nor the girl; he walked away.
@@jamaaldavis6243 You should look up what it means to be an 'accessory' and/or an 'accomplice' to a crime. (Both are crimes, themselves) Thank you for the reply, made me think about it, and do some research. He's definitely one, or even *both* of these! The justice system is a bit antiquated. Thank you.
@@LDiamondz I am aware of the legal term and what it means, which is why I replied buddy. The only way Cash was going to be guilty of being an “accessory” is if Strohmeyer had done something like informing Cash *beforehand* that he was about to commit an assault on and murder a child.
He was legally not guilty of any crime, so I don’t know what you are arguing about. He literally *wasn’t* an accessory 😂 he couldn’t even be expelled from his university because he was legally not guilty of anything.
The reality is Cash was oblivious to Strohmeyer’s intent to commit an assault that night. And then when he happened to stumble upon Strohmeyer in the act, he was oblivious that Shrohmeyer would follow an assault with murder. He was standing outside the bathroom.
Cash was functionally (and legally) a bystander who chose to do nothing. I’m not saying that’s the correct thing from a moral standpoint - I think we can both agree it’s not. But *legally* he had that right until laws were changed in Nevada.
Grade literally explained this in the video. People want to be angry at Cash when in my opinion, that girl’s father should had been charged with some kind of crime if he wasn’t. His negligence was the direct reason she died - not Cash.
Why does this feel like something from A Clockwork Orange? Really scary. I wonder if the Bad Samaritain ever found a job.
Thank you, as always, Dr Grande. This guy, to me, is just as scary as his friend who committed the assault and murder. That poor little girl. Heartbreaking.
Cash isn't a bad "Samaritan", just a bad person!
Good morning Dr Grande, nothing infuriates me more when a child is sexually assaulted , I've looked after children who have the same done.,and some of them didn't survive. David didn't violated the law, but morally he did. This man has no empathy or decency . I agree with everything you said at the end of your analysis. Thank you Dr Grande. Great analysis .Great and sad topic .
If he saw a crime but didn't report it, and instead helped his friend stay a free man, is that not a crime? The two undoubtedly colluded to commit this evil act.
@@TheDramacist I'm from Australia, but I believe it was a crime before and after the fact.
I don't understand how this isn't accessory to murder. Seems that in most states that is what he would and should have been charged with.
His friend took a little girl who was a stranger to him into the bathroom - that's the point at which you say 'no don't do that, it is inappropriate'. He watched his friend go into the bathroom with the child, went in and observed his friend going into a cubicle with the child and observed that his friend was in there for 25 minutes - all those things would scream 'something is not right' to any normal person. The fact that he did nothing when he must have known something untoward was happening, makes him complicit in the crime IMO.
Absolutely.
But if he would have giving Jeremy a ride to the bank and waited outside and Jeremy robbed and murdered the bank teller then David would have been charged under the felony murder rule even if David didn't know Jeremy was going to do that. See in this case I could get behind the felony murder rule
No evidence he saw the sexual assault.
The Finnish laws of that nature translated to English is.
When someone knows another person is in danger that is either life-threatening or has a serious danger to health. And doesn't help or try to get to help that considering his/her possibilities and the situation can reasonably be expected is punished by fine or up to 6 months in prison.
It is simple when there's very low population density, the one person who sees the accident should act, since without otherwise the help would definitely be late, if it would take hours or even days before next person would actually come to that place.
In practice, you are not expected to put yourself in real danger nor do anything you don't know how to do. And panicking is a real excuse. However, danger to clothes and a dirtying vehicle is expected from a person if its needed.
And if the victim was the responsibility of one not trying to rescue him then it's higher punishment scale and a different crime.
But these laws are something that works in an inquisitorial justice system instead of an adversarial legal system.
Nice word " inquisitorial!". Wish our system was more like yours!
@Bolangerfi That’s simply not true though, is it?
In the USA it’s common to hear “…148 YEARS!” Etc etc…Have you researched how long they actually spend locked-up? Some states are incredibly “tough on crime” when compared to European ‘liberal’ justice systems. A lot of states have changed a lot in the last couple of decades though…
Jouni Osmala. There are similar laws in France that were put in place during the reign of Napoleon and the French still live under the Napoleonic Code of Law albeit with amendments. All this to say that in America some states are still thinking about it?... oh! For God’s sake!....
@Bolangerfi It's better than not punishing at all for that crime like in the US. Inquisitorial system isn't about how hard the punishment is but about philosophy about how to get to the truth.
The hardness of punishment is about rehabilitation vs retribution. Finland definitely has less off, lets do a worse crime trying to hide the original crime than the US.
And less recidivism.
I think getting a slap on the wrist is more of a deterrence than getting nothing because rules have been ejected to avoid completely ruining a person's life because normal penalties would be too harsh. And then randomly get completely ruined because you make a slight mistake and the rule doesn't apply to you anymore.
@Aileen Bremner The problem with that is the adversarial justice system and high legal costs aren't truly compatible with such law that can be applied too easily for anyone. And then we add the two-party system causing tribalism and its effects on prosecutors. It's a completely different model of checks and balances and playing a game of which side wins, in both politics and the legal system. And this would be a too widely applicable weapon in such a system, unfortunately. The system kind of works, but there are plenty of ways it fails and causes havoc but changing a wrong part towards our better system would make it completely dystopian. The right part to start fixing would be actually changing the legislative to a multiparty system and that's not happening because current parties like their power. (Multiseat districts with proportional representation.)
David Cash's actions, or lack of, is just despicable. A total lack of empathy. He's really lacking a sensitivity chip. I don't understand why he wasn't held accountable in some way for this heartless crime.
If he lacks empathy, how can he be held responsible?
It wasn't a crime, though.
Just because an action is not against the law does not mean it is not a crime!
I wonder if David Cash suffers from high functioning autism; (1)above-average intelligence, (2)inability to perceive danger or ulterior motives, (3) seeming to be disinterested in activities going on around him. Has anyone done a 'deep dive' into his family history?
@@bthomson that is exactly what it means. Thankfully we have protection from ex post facto laws. Otherwise they could say eating chicken is a capital offense. Guess we all lining up for the firing squad based on past actions
In my country you have to report accidents and crimes by law. I am unsure what the penalty is for not doing so. Since everyone has smartphones its a pretty easy call. I also believe adults must assist in accidents if it is safe, but I assume they do not punish people who do not as "if safe" is a pretty difficult standard.
In this story the "bad samaritan" would be found guilty of aiding a criminal.
too bad that didn't happen to this coward, that he couldn't be charged🤬
He should of ! He didn’t need to take pictures or need a smart phone to get help . Fucker could of went and got a security guard! Hell if I seen my “friend” abusing a child idgaf if I knew the kid or not- I’d of killed him my damn self. They lost loyalty and friendship when they became a fiend!
@@erdelegy nah my dude, I existed in 1998, he didn’t need a smartphone to stop this ! there were security guards! They were in a flippin casino ! Miss me with that bullshit.
@@erdelegy Ah my ears where obviously off as I didn't hear it was an older case. The laws have not changed much but obviously it was harder back then. I doubt very much that "I didn't have a phone on me so I just said nah and kept on walking" would save a person from legal action. Again, I live in a small country. Stories like this are not common and unheard of at this level, we have as many people in our country as America has in a relatively large city.
@No Way You cant get sued if you react to a crisis, unless your reaction is itself clearly not intended to help victims, of course. Then again, getting sued here is very different than in say the US, since you can only sue for actual damages. What would happen is that the suing person would sue the state, not a person, for damages. You would obviously loose if the person who caused damage to your property did so to save you.
In other words, first responders, be them official or civilian, are immune to prosecution and lawsuits unless clear violations where done using the accident/crime as a cover. The idea that someone trying to help the community could be punished for doing so it insane and would create a very cold society.
I could NEVER see a CHILD Suffering, and not Do Something! I just don't understand how he could see what was happening, and Do Nothing! Nobody Protected her, except the Staff looking out for her !!
I agree that him nor reporting it was wrong, and not stopping it when he knew it was his friend wasn't morally right either.
But let's say it's a stranger you don't know assaulting a child. You shouldn't intervene without calling for help because then he'll come after you next.
Poor precious little girl. Would he have felt any different had she been white??
This video should weeds its way into every relationship, interview, and aspect of his life. This was the defining point of his life, and he chose to do nothing...that should always be considered by all of the people he interacts with.
Your final thoughts on this topic, should leave others with a sense of duty, I just hope the narcissists don't outweigh the vigilant.
Yes to this comment!
That’s rich coming from a guy that abandoned his son for years only to summon him years later and force him to operate a giant death machine and traumatize him all over again
Sadly, I think we are near the tipping point where the crazies and narcissistic do outnumber those of us who have empathy and the courage to take action against these people.
How horrible that all three of these circumstances (father leaving a child alone, someone un-lifing her, and someone knowing it but does nothing), how all of that could converge into this tragedy. I can’t imagine how horrible Leroy feels even to this day. That poor child. RIP.
Several European countries have 'Good Samaritan' laws. These laws provide an obligation to provide reasonable assistance to anyone in immediate need. E.g motor vehicle accidents, trips and falls etc. This is no more than would be expected from any reasonable human being. The sort of assistance you would appreciate yourself.
Agree just need to do no harm. Sometimes it is hard to tell without medical training what action will make a situation worse. No one is saying these decisions are easy but we all must do our best!
Is disgusting that such laws need to exist so people feel obligated to help others. It says a lot about the people living in those countries. The desire to help others should come naturally for any civilized person.
*_Revelation 20.11 Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. 14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire._*

@@williammunny9916 Thank you, William. Jesus loves you too 🙏🏾
@@williammunny9916 Quite right William but as you can see, it doesn’t come naturally for everyone, hence the laws. This fellow wouldn’t have been able to just thumb his nose at the rest of society and continue on with his life unperturbed. To whatever degree, he is culpable for that child’s death and he should have been made to pay. I also hope her father was prosecuted because he shares in that culpability.
A lot of men are like that. Their “bro’s” are more important than a girl or woman’s life.
I always thought that anyone present during a crime could be charged with "Acting in Concert"
When I was a kid (15 or 16) a few of my friends were arrested for being passengers in a Stolen Car.
One of their buddies boosted a car and was out joy riding on a winter day. Being around 15 or 16 years old back in the 70s, every one was good with the idea of getting out of the cold and riding in a car. Nobody bothered to ask where the car came from...Typical operating procedures from back in the day.
I'm pretty sure that I've heard of people being convicted for being present with a perpetrator during a crime in which someone was killed.
I honestly thought that not trying to intervene by at least calling the cops( or casino security) would be a crime
I think you already answered the question in your post. How laws are interpreted and applied often depends on the identity of the accused. When dealing with an "undesirable," the authorities can be quite creative in piling on charges. When dealing with an upper-middle-class white guy, then the authorities are going to be much more worried about constitutional rights and the limits of law enforcement. I'm a bit surprised that no charges were filed after the case got so much attention, but I'm not at all shocked that prosecutors didn't go after him from the start.
We all know this, even if many want to deny it. That's the real issue with the Rittenhouse case. I think a lot of people believe that if Rittenhouse had been black and defending locals from right wing counter-protesters, he would have been convicted. What is or isn't legal depends on the will of those who enforce the law.
Same here because here in Texas that has always been the law. Even those present during felony murders get the same charge as the murderer! I am appalled that this sicko got a slap on the wrist!!! 🤮🤮🤮
There was a lot he could have done. At the very least he (David) could have raised the alarm.
Totally agree. Something doesn't add up here. I don't understand how he wasn't charged as party to the crime. I know others have been charged in much less clear circumstances. The explanation in this video was rather lacking. Appalling the University didn't revoke his admission.
Same here; I thought failure to report a serious crime would be obstruction of justice, or something like that. For instance, say you were at a friend's house and your friend decided to kidnap someone (without your knowledge) and murder them in front of you. It's hard to believe that you wouldn't be obligated to report this crime.
Disturbing on so many levels. A parent can’t get a hotel room for his kids but can gamble? Arcades are not supposed to be long term baby sitters. The opportunity for the crime began there. The crime occurred and zero empathy for humanity. Disgusting 🤮! So grateful that my kids are raised! What a sick world 🌎 when common sense or any empathy! 🤔❤️🇺🇸
the fact is most people will not help you in an emergency.
This is so true.
Not sure why you say that. Most people WILL help you in an emergency: fire, flood, robbery, illness -- I've been in all of those situations, and have had outstanding, compassionate help from strangers.
It probably depends on their definition of "emergency". If people see an assault, many people have been reared to think "it's not my business."
but lord, to not do anything when a child is in danger? i can't wrap my head around that😧
Unless there's a camera rolling or there is a chance they will get a lot of hero headlines.
Evil! Evil! Evil! How awful! Reminds me of the Philadelphia subway rape! How in the name of God can this boy (and those people) have no guilt?! I can't believe that david was allowed to get away with this behavior. Our society is becoming out of control. Yes! There needed to be a law! In days past NO LAW WAS NEEDED TO DO THE RIGHT THING; it was called decency,, honor and integrity! Thank you for your analysis.
When I was in college, I found child "p" on my best friend's laptop. Not photos, but video of acts on kids. It has scarred my mind for 20 years. I didn't report him to police, but I did tell his father over the phone. Never saw him again after that.
You haven’t wondered what ever happened to him? With any luck he’s locked up
@Mind Blown Yea, but unlike David, this has literally haunted me in my sleep. I don't know where he is, but he's not near my kids!
@@MaxHarden But you were just like David. You didn't report the guy. That it haunts you doesn't mean anything to his possible future victims. You do realize that, right?
@@Hollylivengood Yes, I realize that. I was a dumb teenager. If I saw anything like that today, I would be dialing 911.
@Mind Blown I was in shock. Didn't even know what I was looking at initially. I'm not defending my actions. It was the wrong decision.
The depths of tragedy in this horrendous crime reverberates. It’s heartbreaking what the child endured at the hands of depravity…just heartbreaking.
"The world is not dangerous because of those who do harm but because of those who look at it without doing anything." - Albert Einstein.
What an absolutely heart-wrenching case! As you said: It was a failure at multiple levels.
It made me emotional when you said "In order to keep society safe, people who have empathy, and who are not narcissistic, must be vigilant. They alone are burdened with compensating for those who will happily stand by and do nothing."
Incredibly touching video, Dr. Grande! ♡
I always wondered what was the origin of these laws that require to report a crime, now I understand better
Such a lack of empathy is concerning. What else would he be okay with?
I am early too. Always great, thought provoking content. Interesting in hearing your analysis on the Ethan Crumby debacle. And his vile parents, who seemed poised to run.
They DID run!
They did run Sarah. They were finally caught but they took out 4K from their account and ran away.
That makes me want to cry just hearing this story. That sweet, innocent child should have been at home with a safe adult. She was neglected and lost her life due to a predator. How could David be so cold and heartless? 💔 😥
David is blindly loyal. He blindly believe that Jeremy wouldn’t hurt Sherrice when reality he was hurting her. Sadly Sherrice was failed by her father, David and Jeremy.
Great video Dr Grande. Hope you had a great weekend!!
Failed by may not fully convey the extent to which this child was harmed! Utterly ruined to death might say it better!
Blindly loyal? You are a very interesting person Christine……
@@nicolecarnevale1071 Right. he was an accomplice by doing nothing. You don't need to make new laws about that.
@@michelesmith2620 You are completely wrong. Knowing about a crime does not constitute aiding or abetting a crime under any state’s laws or even under federal law.
@@Retrosenescent HE. WAS. RIGHT. THERE. Where did you get your law degree?
I remember when this happened; I had just graduated college and I was moving into the house I just bought, painting, pulling up old carpet, etc., so the radio was on all the time and I remember hearing about this. It is every bit as reprehensible and disgusting to me now as it was then. I've always known that there are many among us who choose to do nothing when they see these atrocities occur, and likewise, I've also always known that it is ABSOLUTELY INCUMBENT upon people like me to offer assistance, call the police, report these things. I'd just like to think that there are many more people around like myself than there are of selfish, narcissistic psychopaths like David. Truly SICKENING. He should also be sitting in a prison cell!
With his personality it's a bit worrying he might go on to have a career in nuclear physics.
ehhh, why?
@@ursodermatt8809 because he cant tell right from wrong
@@malabuha
if you are correct, so how was he able have a career in nuclear physics. maybe it is a prerequisite. like people that manufacture arms.
I think it would be more worrying if he had no job at all. In that case, he'd have nothing to lose.
Excellent and greatly informative. Thought provoking. So sad for little Cherise. Gets one thinking. Might be a great type question to devise for a psych evaluation.
You got a heart!😻
I agree: All women that have husbands/boyfriends that abuse their children have a "Duty to Rescue"...
Her dad truly failed her his interest was in the wrong direction in her life was taken he had several chances to do the right thing and did not find his daughter important enough to protect her but found it important enough to gamble it's so sad I think he should be charged with something
With friends like that, who needs karma. Another narcissist who wants other people to have empathy for him, but can't do the same for other people.
Another great comment! So many on this channel!
“No good deed goes unpunished.” Far too many people trying to help have been mistakenly charged and prosecuted as perpetrators.
True
Based on his logic, that should mean if he ever needs to call the police or an ambulance, they shouldn't help him cause they don't know him.
Jesus christ, this is terrifying. What's worse is neither of them have remorse
David Cash is an accomplice after the fact.
Did you not watch the Seinfeld Finale?
During?
Actually, *during the assault part.
Ercell , I would say before and after the fact.
This topic is fascinating because this issue escaped my attention until now. I hope I could remain human for a different person who is in trouble.
Yes! It gets to the very definition of what it means to be human!🤔😱💀👾🤖
You've never had to stand up to your friends over a moral issue?
Apparently David didn't care about his friend either, since he let his friend commit a life altering mistake
That's not a mistake. He let his friend commit a felony. A mistake is when I'm looking at cereal and run my cart into yours at the store. His friend willingly followed that girl into the bathroom and did unspeakable things to her while his friend watched. Both of them are monsters.
Daivid said he knew his friend would have to answer for what he did. He just didn't want to be the one who turned him in. He chose his friend over the little girl.
You have to wonder how he'd think/feel if that were his child being attacked! Shameful!
I really hope he doesn't have children. Ugh.
I wish no harm on his children. However, I hope he gets in a spot where he personally needs help for himself, and everyone around him is like "not my problem".
He wouldn't care if he knew the person attacking his child. But he might feel differently if he didn't know the assailant.
According to his logic, in that case he'd care... because he would actually know the victim.
He would be allowing his friend to rape his child.
Doesn't David's inaction make him an accomplice in crime, and therefore punishable?
It's against the law if you don't help people in need, whose life is in danger, here in Belgium.
I appreciate you insights about the government's problematic goal to legislate morality.
The next step would be 'who' in the government will decide what morality should be criminalize. A chilling thought indeed.
Good ole 1984! Agree but it used to be that morality was somewhat ingrained but now...
I am reminded here of the many many times the police have shot a suspect(s) and rather than call medics the police have allowed that suspect to bleed to death.
Of course the police would never be held accountable to these "Duty To Rescue" Laws.
So, why should a citizen?
Dr. Grande, I am Horrified! That Little Baby Suffered unimaginably!! I Pray she's at Peace!💔💔💔💔🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏. I have No Words!! Thank You. RIP Cherise..
It's a very sad commentary on our society that we need a law to compel people to help, or even report, another human being in trouble, and especially an innocent, helpless child. Another great video on an extremely sad and disturbing case. Thank you Dr. Grande
I hadn’t heard this case before, so I was going to give David the benefit of the doubt; sometimes people are in shock or try to convince themselves it’s not what they think it is. Then those comments from the interview made it clear that he is an awful person.
I wonder though if another legal recourse would be civil litigation? Like, wrongful death?
Very callous. Not in the same kind of situation, but David reminds me of many people I encountered in my daily life during my residency in Maryland for 15 years.
So sad. Sherrice could’ve been easily saved if David had an ounce of compassion like most people do.
... except in Maryland.
@No Way I didn’t forget about him even if I didn’t mention him here. I agree with you. He’s the first to be blamed.
She could have been saved from that situation and from the life she was trapped in. Smdh
@No Way I can’t imagine myself being a blink away from my daughter no matter where we are. What her father did - a total neglect, especially in such a large public area - was a criminal act in my eyes. I’m sure he has to leave with the guilt for the rest of his life.
I was very shocked to hear that a father took a young daughter with him to a casino (even in an arcade), where she was roaming around by herself without being noticed by casino and arcade securities.
Very sad for the innocent young girl having to be in such a horrifying situation and being murdered…
@@Brian.001 still there are many kind people in Maryland.
More empathy and less narcissism. YES Dr. Grande! 👏👏👏
It seems to be a fairly common failing, I can think of two or three instances where there were multiple winesses, one of whom was quoted as saying he know the perpetrator was going to kill someone, and was just glad it was not him or his girlfriend. The crimes were reported by people who were told about it by witnesses, not by the witnessess themselves.
Sometimes it doesn't take much to stop an assault, I once witnessed what I thought was horseplay until the one on the ground was getting kicked in the head, I started to yell, and the ones doing the kicking fled the scene, it occurred to me after that they might just as easily have assaulted me, but I doubt if I would do anything different. I stood guard over an unconcious youth until the ambulance got there, since the security guads in that mall seemed to be of the bad samaritan types. They did not show up until the police arrived.
THANK YOU. It's shocking and reprehensible how people fail to make even a small effort or comprehend they could and should. It's mind-bending how unaware and unaffected people are by vital information they dismiss as "not their business".
All my respect and appreciation to you for being a hero and possibly saving a life. Come ON, people- doing the right thing is not that hard.
I’d like to say ditto to @ Anna L statement. She said it so wonderfully. That poor child had no one that really cared about her. So sad.
I'm so confused by people who have no empathy at all, it's terrible to know that David Cash has no remorse especially knowing that he could have stopped a murder/assault!! Society certainly does need more empathy and less narcissism. TFS Dr. Grande! Great analysis, I agree with you!
“I mean, _yeah_ sure, it was a monstrous act of pure evil against a defenseless person, but…idk he was my friend. 🤷🏼♂️”
The last bit of dialogue is so important.
I’m a little too humanitarian for most people. I’d rather run myself ragged and suffer without complaining than watch suffering of innocent children and animals. So many people have the “not my problem” mindset. I believe that is largely the entire worlds problem.😞
I've been a subscriber since 2019, before you started doing crime analysis as much. This video is one of your best. Great synthesis of mental health factors and a real life case scenario. It goes far deeper than what David should have done, and our society should pay attention. Those of us who are aware of the needs of others not only need to pay attention but also need to keep working to set up protective systems. We must not happily stand by and do nothing.
On the laws, a major contradiction we have, is that when people do act to save or help others they can often end up being sued. Even though they provably saved a life or prevented a major harm, they are sued for a minor or adjacent harm that 'might not' have occurred had they not intervened or waited for professional assistance, whatever the case may be. Now, people are being mandated to act in a way that may invariably drag them into court. Unfortunately, our overly litigious society is what has caused the decrease in people willing to step in, but this case seems more relegated to a particular human psychology that some people are prone. Just some thoughts anyway. Another great video!!
A bunch of narcissistic people coming together, terrible outcomes. A 7 yr old awake at 348AM? Disgusting all around esp friend's testimony. These types make society bad 😠Thanks Dr G😊💜💜
It seems to me that as soon as he saw the assault happening and neglected to act, he became complicit. 20 seconds of action (pull Jeremy out of the stall, tell her to run) would have changed everything about this story. Jeremy still goes to jail, the girl goes home shaken but safe, and David is a 'hero' and not negatively impacted at all.
I don't see a need to insert myself in most people's quarrels but when it's someone unable to fend for themselves you should definitely step in and do the right thing.
Aside from empathy for the victim which would have been plenty of motivation to act, I wouldn't want there to be any chance of me getting dragged into someone else's legal troubles, and I wouldn't want to associate with someone capable of the crime. I'd drag Jeremy to security myself.
I hope someday David realizes it was easily within his power to save her that day and that it haunts him.
He did nothing wrong and has no obligation to life 1 finger or spare a single thought for that girl, him getting involved requires his energy, time, effort he has to take on a certain risk of this getting violent, to support a "duty to act" you support slavery. It would be nice if he knocked his stupid friend out but he has no obligation to.
Very interesting (and infuriating) case. Maybe because I grew up in France, I see duty to rescue laws as obvious and I find it disturbing the US don't have such laws. I can't see either how reporting a crime could present a risk, unless you deal with a corrupt police force. As of 2012, 28 countries had adopted such laws.
“ To see injustice and do nothing about that means to participate in it.” ~Jean Jacques Rousseau
VERY meaningful quote!👍
California needs a Duty to Rescue law. I was assaulted by a group of people during a holiday BBQ get together in the backyard of a retired member of law enforcement. No one stepped in to stop it, despite how loud my screams were or the fact that the attack occurred mere feet away from everyone else. Everyone responded by looking in the opposite direction and just ignored my assault.

Waiting for the early thoughts on Ethan Crumbley and his Michigan shooting
We don't need laws to force people to report crimes in progress. David had the moral obligation and duty to stop his friend or at the very least, to report the crime to the authorities.
There are 2 types of criminals in this world, the ones who commit the crimes and the ones who don't say anything when they witness a crime.
I can't believe I've never heard of this case before!
Roman law only knew punishments for actions people had carried out. Germanic law saw it as an offense not to render assistance to a person in danger (without endangering the helping person itself). That means: for the lack of a certain activity. Many European nations like Germany and France have "failure to render assistance in cases of emergency" as a crime itself.
Yes, that's why the paparazzi who took photos of Princess Diana while she was dying were investigated. If they took a picture before summoning for help, they committed a crime, even if they only got there after the accident and had no part in causing it. Non-assistance to a person in danger was often charged when I lived in France, and charges would be reported on the radio. It was taken very seriously.

By the way, Jeffrey Epstein is a very bad example. He did nothing wrong, as evidenced by the accusations of his very "victims", who went back for more (money & lovin') many, many times.
This actually relates to one of the few fuсked up things about the USA. The stupid, anti-nature laws about the age of consent in some states: where the age of consent is 18!
Wrt David, this is an utterly fascinating study of morality. David's attitudes are things that I've seen in a lot of guys I've known over the years. This case study should be standard in the moral educations of youths.
Note also that yhe attitudes shown by David are at the core American neoliberal capitalism.
The real criminal here is Leroy for neglecting poor little Shaniece
I am surprised that there is no legal obligation to report the confession of a murder.
