My favorite part of her story is that the kidnappers didn't want to tie her up because they didn't want to leave impressions on her wrists. These kidnappers were so nice.
@@LisaAnn777who even combed her hair & polished her nails. I said from the moment she walked back home, she is not mental sick, she just selfish,and also was not the first time she did it. Now is just that she did it Explosively.
When the police said Carlee was captured on doorbell CCTV casually walking back home (after her being missing) then as soon as Carlee reached her street where she lives with her parents, she started running towards her home, flailing her arms around looking in distress. The literal amateur dramatics! The police have so far handled this situation really well.
Yeah that whole part reminds me of Sherri papini. Sherri Papini was apparently caught on film running around in circles in a parking lot to work herself up prior to a police interview. Talk about an uncanny parallel
@@redlady8296difference there. papini was arrested and convicted to lying, did jail time and fined for all the money spent on her search & investigation.
Oh Dr. Grande you had me at "Faken" - I adore you and can't thank you enough for helping me not get ground down into the depression of each day's news.
I will admit that I can be quite gullible at times. I was hoping this girl didn't fake her abduction, but Dr. Grande gives the comical reality check I sometimes need to realize how "Faken" people are. 😆
This is disgusting. I kept checking the news to see if they found this lady.😡 Everyone was so worried about her. Now we find out she was just a scammer.
As soon as I saw that she appeared at her parents home I knew immediately it was a hoax. Kidnapping victims don’t just appear suddenly. They are either cold cases , found murdered, or miraculously found alive . FOUND. Not them walking up to the house … unbelievable.
If u were observant u would notice that a lot of his videos are chopped up and edited quite a bit - @least theones that ive watched - DrBig is a character a hilarious character - he might be cold detached like that but my impression is that its a mixup and he pulls it off pretty good
Carlee Russell should be criminally charged for making false reports and putting the lives of numerous agencies and volunteers at risk trying to assist with her fake reports and repay for all costs involved!
SAME WITH OCEANGATE!!! Why is it up to the taxpayers of at least 3 countries to fund various branches of the military for the search?? It was a fool’s errand to be tourists at the Titanic which is the graveyard of many souls.
I want her to get the same energy we gave Sherri Papini when we found out she lied. There are so many missing women across the world and she just made a mockery out of their plight. Also, je case wasn't national, I am in kenya at the moment and she was trending on Google search when she went missing.
She should have looked up on the internet, “Will I be charged if I fake my kidnapping which produces the state police, secret service and FBI to look for me for 49 hours”.
So, the cheese crackers her “captor” gave her - would those be the ones Carlee bought at Target? Why do people think they can get away with stuff like this? Now she has ruined her reputation.
Yup. I bet she never thought in a million years that the FBI would be tracing her online behavior. I also think she, like everyone else, forgot there are cameras all over the place, tracking her on the highway and in the Target parking lot. The longer she fails to come forward and admit her actions, the worse it will be for her.
I don't think she was focused on getting away with it. I think she probably had a falling out with someone and was focused on them and how they would react.
Why did she even say that part in her story? Did she think they were going to pump her stomach as part of the Hospital evaluation? "See, I'm not lying. There's the Cheez-its!"
I like how the kidnappers took her clothes off and she thinks they took pictures. But then she went home with 107 dollars in her sock. Nice of the kidnappers to give the money back.
I know I keep saying it but I just love your humour Dr Grande. I think only other people with a dry sense of humour like you will pick it all up and appreciate it all. But I also think it will go straight over some other people's heads leaving them thinking "Huh"? But that makes it even funnier. Never, ever change your presentation style it is perfection!❤
@@deborahtate192 yeah I think the monotone voice is what polishes it off. If he smiled, smirked or chuckled it wouldn't be as perfect. The monotone dryness makes the joke sound like it's a legitimate and professional opinion. I think he's hilarious!
You’re so funny Dr Grande. I don’t know if you were “taken or faken “ here but I don’t think a psychotic episode can be planned in advance. I’m just happy to have a boring, no drama life!
By that logic so should anyone in the medical profession . Cops should have to pass such tests as well . EDIT- to address all those that continue to address me without reading through the thread . I understand law enforcement undergoes tests re psychiatric competence and I appreciate the clarity on that . However , I do not believe the testing is stringent enough . Also if we are to expect nurses to undergo such testing that needs to carry across the medical field in general - I do not believe there are any roles in health care that will prevent a person from seeing , or hearing ( think EMS ) , things that may disturb them . Do I think such an idea is realistic ? No .
LOL, NO COPS SHOULD... YET 1 out of 3 is likely to be psychopathic and have many psychopathic tendencies... yet they are the only people in society that we give the right to use a gun when needed... but 98% of murders police commit have no repercussions and quite often, they are giving paid leave and life pensions.
Evidently carlee has never watched even one episode of a true crime story. Cameras, cellphone tracking, internet searches, ability to track purchases - she went down the list of things to do wrong and did them all. And her abductor sounded like Ronald McDonald. I wish I could get in her head and see what she hoped to accomplish.
Interesting that the media would rather focus on stuff like this but ignore situations like the 30 kids reported missing in Cleveland within the span of a few weeks back in June.
Ayoooo, fo real??? Im researching this now... Ive heard the cleveland area is a hot bed for human trafficking... Edit: Now im even more skeptical, but at the same time, it makes sense. Apparentally they number is so high because of runaways, and habitual runaways. But now im questioning why are there sooo many runaways??? And its sooo easy to explain them as runaways, people will never investigate and just accept it as truth... wtf is going on?!?!?!?

IMO, We should support this dedicated and hardworking man who consistently wakes up early and rarely takes time off. He is passionate about his work, which many of us appreciate and look forward to daily. He never disappoints and is incredibly reliable. Dr. Grande hardly ever takes sick leave or vacations, and it seems like he is always working without time for leisure. He truly deserves a day off. Let's support him by subscribing, liking, donating and commenting, Thank you, Dr. Grande, for everything you do. For your unwavering dedication and for keeping us informed. Last but not least, Dr. Grande, your infamous dry humor, sweetens the pot. Thank you for the laughs. There were many.
She took a robe, toilet paper, cheezits, and granola bars. She was obviously planning this for days. And those are the items she came up with. I wonder if she had water? This is the craziest story!
I think she needed snacks for the trip to the cheap Red Roof Inn and the spa bathrobe for the same purpose. Maybe she wasn’t confident the Inn had toilet paper and / or she didn’t want maids to come in while she was there with the new boyfriend for two days.
I think it was for someone she’s dating. There was a girl I knew as a teenager who lied and said she was kidnapped to get attention from a boyfriend, she even went so far as to pee on herself. It was pretty ridiculous. Don’t think it was due to a mental health break, at least not the kind many are thinking of.
But there is also something about the nude pictures. Maybe she was been blackmailed and this is what (in a total state of panic) she could come up with to explain the nude pictures should they come out.
Saddest thing about this is that the family of Carlee actually recruited a woman whose daughter who was actually kidnapped to help in the search process for Carlee.
Are you serious?! How heartless can a person be to look someone in the eye who’s kid was actually killed and act like you can relate to them. Ugh what a horrible person.
Aniah Blanchard was kidnapped and brutally murdered. It was a tragic story. Her mother lead the search for Carlee. She also got Aniah's law passed through Alabama congress. This carlee Russell and her family need to make a public apology to everyone who got out to look for her sorry ass on Saturday.
@@vgsdomingo1 well i can sort of understand believing she was kidnapped *before* hearing that she said she was kidnapped by a clown, escaped, was taken again, escaped *again* and just wandered back home like nothing happened.
Are you kidding me? The majority of the internet bought this sham, hook line and sinker. Those who didn't were bullied and shamed for not believing her.
It’s weird that she chose to fake a kidnapping on a busy highway. When I first heard the story, I thought it was a quiet country road. It sounded so scary.
She didn't know there was a camera nearby which is why her story is so unbelievable. Nobody else on the road is slowing down or pulling over to help the toddler, she walks away because she's probably drugged out of her mind.
When my friend Stephanie Parze in NJ went missing, we searched the woods in 2 states for her, only to find her poor little body dead in freehold nj. Her abusive ex bf killed her then hung himself right before her body was found. This and all of the other false cases are a disgrace and totally make it harder for those who are in real danger or are actually victims of foul play. It infuriates me the more i watch and hear and read. I try not to believe everything i read but this is obvious she was lying. Her family is not at fault. They were terrified for her but its sad that they dont see through her lies. Thats very sad.
That’s so terrible and I’m sorry to hear that happened to your friend. I totally agree these hoaxes ruin it for legitimate victims because it can make police skeptical and perhaps won’t investigate as thoroughly. It’s also a waste of resources which could’ve been better spent on actual crimes.
One thing that you didn't touch on was that her parents apparently went to Atlanta, GA because they claimed they had a tip that that's where she was, but also said that they had already been planning to go to Atlanta. Did they lie about this? Was there a tip? If so, who gave it to them, and how? Why were they going to Atlanta in the first place? Isn't it convenient that the place they were going to was purportedly where their "kidnapped" daughter was taken? Was this a way to cover up taking a vacation trip to Atlanta even though their daughter was supposedly missing? Which leads to the question, did they actually know that she wasn't abducted?
Yes i found that so strange too. Vacation ? Unfortunetly i believe family will cover for her til forever and she will never learn. My mom would of killed me for doing this
With the way her mother spoke, Carlee has never had to take responsibility for her actions. Her mother came across as controlling as well because most of our parents know what we are capable of as their children. Mine will love you but you bet I'd have been Infront of the camera apologizing to the world and facing the consequences of my actions
I bet it was a trip they wouldn't change, yes a vacation they kept so she got lying honestly 😢,....this was her first Rodeo but it took them by surprise
@hodgeelmwood8677 Could it be possible the parents got a hostage call from Atlanta, and was told to not inform the police and bring money? They said they withdrew a lot of money. Just thinking,,,
@@heavensgateway yes, could be Carlee was planning on getting money from her parents without ever letting them know that SHE was behind it, not a kidnapper...
I know several women in my life were scared when we heard the news that a toddler was used as bait. We know we would have stopped for a baby. Even with it being fake, I think the use of a child to lure people to be kidnapped was important for us all to think about.
Excellent point! Even so.... most of us are tender hearted enough to still want to stop and help a child. It IS scary to think that it could be a trap.
Good point! This likely even may have given somebody a NEW idea how to waylay people who otherwise would not stop or get out of their cars. If children are seemingly in distress, any "normal" empathetic person IMHO is evolutionary hardwired to let all guards down -> easy pickings for perpetrators :-((( This young, but adult woman should be subjected to heavy consequences for her irresponsible conduct! IMHO she caused immense material and emotional harm for her family, friends and the law enforcement officers. I am torn between two explanations for her actions: - she faked her abduction as a prank (like the Mexican influencer who staged kidnappings for TikTok - she featured some days ago on Dr. G's blog) by herself, or on a dare by an unknown person -> immature and insensitive - she has a histrionic personality, maybe combined with juvenile schizophrenia (hebephrenia) and/ or a dissocial personality disorder/ early stage of Münchhausen syndrome (each condition individually, but also in combination possible, inpatient evaluation absolutely mandatory IMHO) -> reckless and attention-seeking, high probability for aggravation over time IMHO, even more hare-brained schemes and involuntary involvement of other persons are to be expected *Regardless of the motive for her actions - by showing this amount of irresponsibility and contempt for the feelings and resources of the people around her she has IMHO forfeited her entitlement to continue her medical studies.* [Opinionated complement on topic: To involve children as a lure could even further increase the success rates for an ALLEGEDLY already existing MO. I remember that ca. 15 years ago several media reported and warned, that in sparsely populated areas in (TMK) the UK and Eastern Germany (bordering Poland) allegedly a similar trick was pulled: On country roads without much traffic motorists suddenly would come across seemingly helpless persons lying on the tarmac. When the drivers stopped, left their cars/ motorbikes and tried to assess the situation, they were assaulted by accomplices of the decoy, and robbed of their belongings. In response to the reports, initially referring to the UK, many persons came forward and corroborated the accounts. IIRC they alleged that something similar had happened also to them, albeit not in the UK, but in Germany. -> Disclaimer: At that time only limited research regarding the truthfulness of the stories was possible (furthermore, I am no journalist or law enforcer). The region's notorious characteristics are known throughout Germany, this is not a prejudice. I know several people who can testify that the claims are true. IN MY OPINION the accounts are entirely plausible. I believe that at least some incidents happened as related. Shortly after the emergence of the reports we moved to another country, so I Iost track of the topic. In hindsight it could have been a giant hoax, which I do not know. I could be wrong! Better safe than sorry.] {Typos = bonus ;-) }
Perfect example of the boy who cried wolf. Such a huge set back for people who are actually going missing and needs the attention this disgusting human was given
People are not going to ignore kidnappings now because one woman lied about being kidnapped. That is ridiculous. Most people are not like this woman. She pretended to be pregnant and have a terminal illness already I have read. So she is known for ridiculous antics. Most people know this isn't normal.

Just a reminder, I'm not diagnosing anybody in this video; only speculating about a young woman with 'a particular set of skills' that can make her a nightmare for a 911 operator like this.
Especially with police saying repeatedly that she was the only person who reported the child on the hwy. it was clear from the start they didn’t believe she had been kidnapped.
As soon as I heard, purchased 2 meals and called from hotel, I knew she was off playing. Once I heard she took a robe I knew it was all elaborate lies. Maybe next time she will just break up with her boyfriend before having a little trist with the new one.
@@RMcCoy-fb4rs Elaborate lies is an understatement Lol! I swear to God if she ran out of gas she'd push her car 5 miles to the nearest gas station, instead of just grabbing the empty gas can out of her trunk.
Well, I can't even fathom what her parents must be feeling. They look bewildered, stunned, shocked, embarrased, ashamed...not knowing how to process this. Its a HUGE story, with a ton of attention and they are in the headlights. Mom is wanting and has been trying so hard to believe her daughters story, defending her, feeling utterly blindsided. I can only picture the conversations behind those house walls. It will be telling how they face this in coming days. Continue to pretend to believe her? Make her face her consequences? Sheild her? Give excuses for her? Hold her fully accountable?? We'll find out soon enough. Then we can see the truth of it.
@@lostandfound5145You obviously don’t have kids, doesn’t matter how “well” you raise kids. They can still turn out to be no-so-well people. Just like there are plenty of children who are raised in horrible households and yet they come out on the other side. You raise your kid and it’s up to your kid to go out into the real world and make their own decisions. We are all responsible for our own decisions and choices. Can others around have influence? Absolutely but at the end of the day she knew right from wrong and she made her bed. You don’t know what the parents have been through with their child.
Exactly, and telling the world to basically don't worry about where she been? Mam !! We are not your kids! Y'all made this OUR BUSINESS when ya claimed CARLEE was ABDUCTED trying to help an ABANDONED BABY!
Dr Grande has elite comedic levels of funniness. Multiple times I doubled over from laughter. Don’t ever stop telling funny lines with a serious demeanor, Dr. Grande!
My theory is that she discovered that nudes of her are online or are going to appear online and she regretted posing for them. She needed to come up with a story for why her nudes are online and this was the best she could come up with. I can't think of another motive...
I completely agree. I left a similar comment before seeing yours. It's the only reasonable explanation for what she did. I feel she concocted this fanciful story because she was in panic mode not wanting her family and friends, and her BF, to see them. She may have even been blackmailed which may have caused a psychotic break in her of some kind, causing her to want to flee the area and completely disappear. (although she can't escape the net) Whatever she was going through it had to be a lot to be willing to destroy her job and leave her red Mercedes sports car behind.
Candace Owens, on her show, mentioned there was some speculation or rumors that she might have been involved with a 17 year-old teen and manufactured this story to spend time with him. If true, she has even more problems to contend with. (sigh)
I’m not an expert but she did not sound like someone in mental distress during the 911 call. She sounded very coherent, almost like she was carefully choosing her words.
Why did she hang up with 911 and then call her girlfriend when approaching the baby... LOL... she must have been at the bottom of her Psych graduating class if she couldn't come up with a more realistic story...
I agree with you that she seems to have wanted to get the attention of a few people she was close with, specifically her boyfriend and possibly her parents. She didn’t expect to become international news, she thought she could disappear, freak her family out then show back up and be afforded extra attention. It’s clear that she lacks the ability to thing anything through, so once things got out of hand she lacked any kind of plan and couldn’t find a way to craft a story that made sense. Apparently her boyfriend has removed all trace of her from his social media so I don’t think her plan worked…
The boyfriend posting about how she is fighting for her life for two days and then he basically stripped her out of his life is the nail right on the head. It's OVER, honey! Your assessment is spot on. What weapon did he use?? A healthy young woman just gets "overpowered" without a massive fight? Did he choke her out, drug her, smash her head in, what?? Possibly. He was a kind guy not wanting to rough up her wrist skin though. But I think those naked photos was to up the ante WITHOUT any sexual assault as there would be no DNA evidence. That would have upped the potential charges and necessitate a rape evaluation kit.
Finally, the public took missing Black women seriously and was lying. they should not allow her to return to nursing school. She proved that she is not trust worthy. As nurse you have to have trust from healthcare professionals and from your patients. As nurse do you think that would take responsibility for errors? No, she would not. This is my opinion, she be removed from nursing.
If she get charged for lying to authorities, filing a false police report, etc , she’s likely not going to be able to get a job as a nurse. She’s probably just gonna have lots of student loan debt and a defaulted note for that flashy red Benz. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
As a nurse myself, I agree. She stole from her work and defrauded law enforcement and the public (and likely even her own family). I wouldn't be able to trust her as a colleague at all, and I doubt any patients would feel secure with her either. She should not be (and probably won't be) allowed to become licensed.
I agree. I don’t think she had a mental episode. I think she was trying to attract as much attention as possible until she realized how non-believable her fake story was. I think the reason she didn’t continue with her charade was because she knew somehow that law enforcement was unraveling her lies, and law enforcement in this case was smarter than she initially expected, and she had just enough smarts to know not to go forward like Jussie did. Jussie was more of a narcissist than Carlee, but I believe they still fall into the same category. They’re completely okay with making up lies for their own sick agendas, even if it means using valuable resources like law enforcement to do so. They both expected people to be unintelligent enough to believe their wild stories, and viewed themselves as having some ultra level of intelligence that would make it easy for them to convince people of their lies. I won’t be surprised if she ends up trying to gaslight law enforcement, the media, and even “white people,” just like Jussie… we’ll see..
@@joy-115 I believe the food left in car was for her mom & snacks hers...All that lying her mom did & she didn't have the decency to drop mom food off before she disappeared, damn
Faken. 💀 Being a black woman, I didn’t want this to be what this eventually turned out to be. The moment I heard that there was just one singular call, being hers, reporting a “child” walking on the highway, I knew that this was a hoax. Then the video was aired of her car on the highway and she’s exiting, grabbing her snacks (that the kidnapper fed her) and there was no child. I think that this was pathetic of her to do. I don’t know if she thought that no one would care if she left other than her target (the bf), did she consider the street cams and ring cameras? She was blinded by attention seeking so badly that she didn’t stop to think of the end result and how idiotic she’d look once the details come out. I hope that she gets the help that she needs because honestly, that’s where all this stems from, her needing mental help. Glad that she is home and physically safe, but she wasted a lot of time, resources, opened a lot of wounds for those who have lost a child that were helping to chase her “diapered toddler and cheez it” hoax! Her poor parents, dad mostly because mum in my opinion seems to be the main facilitator of allowing her to get her way and not holding her accountable.
@@grammichal6759 I think so. Dad’s getting beaten into submission and seems to be the whipping boy for both. You could see that he wasn’t comfortable agree with his wife during the interview but knew he had to. Maybe it’s because they love each other as a family and want to seem united behind Carlee, but he sure did seem to not want to be in that interview.
She should serve time in the way of community service that aligns with her crime, like search and rescue or something similar, this way she can see the effort people put out trying to locate the missing.
She? 's studying to be a nurse. She should know rhat what she did is not helpful to anybody. She is so self-involved she doesn't realize with her impact on her community.
@@IwishIwasshorter Hindsight is 20/20. Some people don't stop and consider the consequences of their actions when they're young and completely ignorant of life in general.
It was the hysterical tone of some of the news coverage and many many concerned comments that had me thinking it might be true but I always felt skeptical. I BRAKE FOR TODDLERS! I’m actually found two different toddlers wandering! One - 2 1/2?- was being chased and his caretaker caught up within a few minutes but the other 18 month old in the middle of an intersection on a 2 lane rural highway was clearly neglected.
True. I was feeling so bad for her and even prayed for her to be found. My God! What is she but a waste! She should be publicly ridiculed until she apologizes to everyone...and is forced to pay for the 'amber alert'. She cares for no one.
I actually have found a child wandering in the middle of the street.... Her details were so ridiculous that I knew the story was fake. It was last summer in the middle of July. I was about to go walking when I noticed a car following a kid up the road. He was between six and eight years old. At first I thought it was a kid running from his parents. Then I realized it was something different. I dropped my dog's leash and ran after the little boy to get him out of the road. The woman following him in the car got out and asked if he was my child.. I told her I thought she was his. She was following him trying to catch him.. He was a nonverbal autistic child who had obviously snuck out of the house and gone wandering. All it takes is a second. And I did call emergency services. I called them as soon as I got the kid back to my house around the corner And gave him cold water and make sure he was under some air conditioning. And I turned on PAW Patrol for him. So he would stay calm because I was a total stranger. The police arrived about 15 minutes later and positively identified him as a child that was reported missing by his parents. That's what actually happens when you find a missing child on the road....
@grammichal6759 Exactly! The kid I found was on a side street, so I was the only one who saw him besides the lady following him. If there was a toddler wandering the highway, there would have been a thousand 9 11 calls, and 20 people would have stopped.
Sh!t man it's 8 am and I'm at work laughing my a$$ of at this commentary! So glad i stumbled across your page. This was a great breakdown and absolutely hilarious!
Awesome video. I agree- she clearly did this to get the attention of her ex boyfriend. By reviewing her twitter posts for the last few months, it is clear that she doesn’t have self confidence, had an obsession with having a husband/man, and she seemed miserable with her life. Very sad but also a horrible thing to do and I hope she learns a lesson, gets some help and has both forced and natural consequences for her actions.
I feel the same way. And now she has basically made her life way harder going forward. I hope that she finds a good therapist who can work through everything with her. I don’t believe she had malicious intent, but I do think she is going through some things. I really wonder if she might have borderline personality disorder.
And I had felt sorry for her thinking she had a mental breakdown when she was planning this. I don't understand people that do things like this and she still needs mental help for thinking this was a good idea. I hope she is fined for falsifying a police report and faking a kidnapping. And your right every time someone googles her name this will come up and will follower her for likely the rest of her life.
Here are a few of my thoughts on the Carlee Russell case: I think Carlee is spoiled and was trying to get her mother's attention. First of all, if a person picked up food for them and their mom and was only 10 mins from the house, the first person they would've called is their mom. It seemed like she wanted her mother to feel what it would be like to lose her. Also, she wanted to appear as some type of hero by trying to save a child and a good person by purchasing food. Her mother made a statement that she knew where ever Carlee was she would "fight her way out" She made a statement like this a couple of times during interviews. In Carlee's story, this is what she did. Something tells me that this isn't her first attempt at lying and deceiving people. You could tell by the(possible step) father's face. He seemed disgusted and wanted no part of the whole thing. Her mother seems like one of those, "my-kid-can-do-no-wrong" types. Now she can't deny she has a deep problem on her hands.
She was trying to get her boyfriend’s attention and sympathy based on released (without permission) text messages. She had got into an argument with his stripper side chick.
My thoughts : she was on a drug date with a man and freaked out and started to call the police on her way home- realizing she made a horrible mistake she then decided to fake a kidnapping. She likes the attention anyways.
You are always very informative while taking the time to be kind. Going forward Carlee has alot of really embarrassing lessons. Sadly she never really realized what she was creating. I am sure she wishes there was an easier way out of this mess. I do pray that she does not find her situation too much to face and decides to take her own life, to avoid what is ahead of her. This is truly a very sad situation. Hopefully her family will continue to support her and will maintain close contact with their daughter to ensure she has people who love her. And the public needs to go easy on her. I do think she is about to face a very difficult road ahead. 🧐😢❤️
I think the idea that she was trying to impress someone has the most merit, but it does speak to her mental state if she thought such a convoluted story would make this person, or anyone else, think she was anything but bonkers.
That's what I've been thinking and you explained it really well. I don't think she did this with malfeasance in mind. She did some totally bizarre things. Why steal a robe and toilet paper from her workplace? She probably owns a robe. And, she could have bought toilet paper at Target. And, why did she do these searches on her own phone and work computer where they could be so easily found? And, the timing of some of the searches indicates that she wasn't sleeping. Did she not even consider that there might be cameras on the interstate since cameras are literally everywhere? Heck, I don't even pick my nose in my car anymore because I assume I'm being filmed every second that I'm outside my house. And, nobody in their right mind would believe they could actually get away with this (emphasis on "right mind") and have a positive outcome. A lot of the things she did indicate that she absolutely wasn't in her right mind. She obviously snapped. Maybe some compassion is in order here.
I was extremely sympathetic to her as her story fell apart because I assumed she must have been experiencing a psychotic break. Her internet searches, however, indicate this was NOT a break from reality, but a planned deception.
I can’t believe I fell for this nonsensical story 🤦♂️ I feel stupid for thinking a trafficking ring would use a child on the side of the highway to abduct someone…
So do I. I thought to myself if kidnappers could use a toddler to lure an adult, what in the world are they doing to that toddler? I cried hard about the whole ordeal. Then I realized she lied. A whole different flood of emotions have made me silent and reflective.
I wouldn't rule out her initial plan to become a heroic celeb, putting her life on the line while saving a toddler, and actually being kidnapped while doing so... However, once realizing the police ain't taking the bait and arresting Ron Howard, she decided to lay low and hopes it will blow over.
Something most people missed in the official press conference is that the police stated that they had information on additional google searches that she made that "give insight into her mental state" but that they would not release the content of those searches in order to protect her privacy. And then I read somewhere that her bf was messing with a woman who was the mother to a toddler. I have no idea if that is true or not, but somehow I sense that, as Dr Grande said, she did this for attention, for an audience of only a few people.
I almost fell from my chair at 15:38. Every time someone mentioned her kidnapper having "orange hair and a bald spot" I thought of one particular person, and when Carlee allegedly reported hearing "a woman" talking, and later feeding her cheese crackers, I thought, "yep, she's mentally ill and thinks she was kidnapped by Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. The baby in a diaper was not a boy, it was Lilibet." Then you posted the picture you did. I was delighted and amused by the coincidence.
I don't think that she thought that this stunt was going to blow up so big and so fast. She didn't realize just how many people adored her and were seriously hoping to find her. How many missing black women have a $25,000 reward posted for her safe return? Let alone $50,000. She is embarrassed and ashamed and she needs to be. Time to grow up and pay the piper, Sweetheart. I'm so glad that you are home and safe and with the people who love you. You had such a bright and beautiful future.
This is sad. She went to great lengths for attention and it’s backfired spectacularly on her. She has to live with the shame and humiliation. I hope she gets the help that she needs.
Clearly she premeditated this entire hoax and was very cognizant of exactly what she was planning on doing as well as knowing what she was doing was wrong.. she knew she needed to lie to carry out her plan. The evidence of her own google searches says everything we needed to know about her premeditated hoax. How many REAL missing people actually deserve the response this con artist received.
Excellent Dr. Grande, how quickly you put this info all together, amazing. I cracked up, she should make a movie "Faken" & "give you cheeses", love your humor!
I love your expert analysis and your dry humor! ❤ The funny things you say with a straight face and unwavering voice make me laugh even more in your delivery. I'll be looking for a toddler olympian eating Cheez-its.
It really is the ultimate irony that stupid people really think the rest of the world is as stupid as they are. Just goes to show what a college education is really worth nowadays.
She did prove that to a certain extend... If we go a bit deeper than that, we just showed the rest of the world , enemies of the U.S..... how stupid we can be and how easily one can distract most of the ppl in the country... within mins..few hrs... feelings..emotions get the best of all...every time!...

My favorite part of her story is that the kidnappers didn't want to tie her up because they didn't want to leave impressions on her wrists. These kidnappers were so nice.
My favorite part is that they feed her Cheez-Its that she provided, and then they painted her nails.

Such caring kidnappers 😊

I said from the moment she walked back home, she is not mental sick, she just selfish,and also was not the first time she did it.

“Perhaps Carlee witnessed an alien toddler who was training for the Olympics by sprinting on the interstate.” Dr. Grande, you are a savage. 🤣
When the police said Carlee was captured on doorbell CCTV casually walking back home (after her being missing) then as soon as Carlee reached her street where she lives with her parents, she started running towards her home, flailing her arms around looking in distress. The literal amateur dramatics! The police have so far handled this situation really well.
That’s like Rudy Farias dramatic 😂
Yeah that whole part reminds me of Sherri papini. Sherri Papini was apparently caught on film running around in circles in a parking lot to work herself up prior to a police interview. Talk about an uncanny parallel

This is disgusting. I kept checking the news to see if they found this lady.😡 Everyone was so worried about her. Now we find out she was just a scammer.
As soon as I saw that she appeared at her parents home I knew immediately it was a hoax. Kidnapping victims don’t just appear suddenly. They are either cold cases , found murdered, or miraculously found alive . FOUND. Not them walking up to the house … unbelievable.

I want her to get the same energy we gave Sherri Papini when we found out she lied. There are so many missing women across the world and she just made a mockery out of their plight. Also, je case wasn't national, I am in kenya at the moment and she was trending on Google search when she went missing.
Right. That would be fair.
These kidnappers weren't as mean
You are straight.
And if this epyld h have been a white woman, accusing an imaginary black man, the streets would be burning in Alabama
Sherri didn’t have black privilege, so she was charged.. look at jussie smollet and Rachel Richardson
Absolutely
My father was a forensic psychiatrist and you remind me of him so much. The stories he had. The humor. I appreciate your work
She should have looked up on the internet, “Will I be charged if I fake my kidnapping which produces the state police, secret service and FBI to look for me for 49 hours”.
So, the cheese crackers her “captor” gave her - would those be the ones Carlee bought at Target? Why do people think they can get away with stuff like this? Now she has ruined her reputation.
Yup. I bet she never thought in a million years that the FBI would be tracing her online behavior. I also think she, like everyone else, forgot there are cameras all over the place, tracking her on the highway and in the Target parking lot. The longer she fails to come forward and admit her actions, the worse it will be for her.
I don't think she was focused on getting away with it. I think she probably had a falling out with someone and was focused on them and how they would react.
We waz kangz
Why did she even say that part in her story? Did she think they were going to pump her stomach as part of the Hospital evaluation? "See, I'm not lying. There's the Cheez-its!"
Something tells me her"reputation" held little to be ruined.
I like how the kidnappers took her clothes off and she thinks they took pictures. But then she went home with 107 dollars in her sock. Nice of the kidnappers to give the money back.
Good catch!

You’re so funny Dr Grande. I don’t know if you were “taken or faken “ here but I don’t think a psychotic episode can be planned in advance.
I’m just happy to have a boring, no drama life!

Nursing students should be required to pass all psyche tests.
By that logic so should anyone in the medical profession . Cops should have to pass such tests as well .
EDIT- to address all those that continue to address me without reading through the thread . I understand law enforcement undergoes tests re psychiatric competence and I appreciate the clarity on that . However , I do not believe the testing is stringent enough . Also if we are to expect nurses to undergo such testing that needs to carry across the medical field in general - I do not believe there are any roles in health care that will prevent a person from seeing , or hearing ( think EMS ) , things that may disturb them . Do I think such an idea is realistic ? No .
Too many would fail. Nurses are nuts
LOL, NO COPS SHOULD... YET 1 out of 3 is likely to be psychopathic and have many psychopathic tendencies... yet they are the only people in society that we give the right to use a gun when needed... but 98% of murders police commit have no repercussions and quite often, they are giving paid leave and life pensions.
That could create a nursing shortage.
I agree there is a lot of insane nurses out there many who have harmed and killed patients
Evidently carlee has never watched even one episode of a true crime story. Cameras, cellphone tracking, internet searches, ability to track purchases - she went down the list of things to do wrong and did them all. And her abductor sounded like Ronald McDonald.

She took a robe, toilet paper, cheezits, and granola bars. She was obviously planning this for days. And those are the items she came up with. I wonder if she had water? This is the craziest story!
I think she needed snacks for the trip to the cheap Red Roof Inn and the spa bathrobe for the same purpose. Maybe she wasn’t confident the Inn had toilet paper and / or she didn’t want maids to come in while she was there with the new boyfriend for two days.
Then she claimed the orange haired man who stole her force fed her cheezitz. What a crock of lies.
Don’t forget that orange haired man had a large bald spot as well 😂 clearly bozo the clown or pennywise have stared a second career
Orange hair isn’t a thing…red heads are
I think it was for someone she’s dating. There was a girl I knew as a teenager who lied and said she was kidnapped to get attention from a boyfriend, she even went so far as to pee on herself. It was pretty ridiculous. Don’t think it was due to a mental health break, at least not the kind many are thinking of.
But there is also something about the nude pictures. Maybe she was been blackmailed and this is what (in a total state of panic) she could come up with to explain the nude pictures should they come out.
One of my friends in high school was like that. She did not that far, but she manufactured the drama to lure the menfolk and it was ridiculous.

Saddest thing about this is that the family of Carlee actually recruited a woman whose daughter who was actually kidnapped to help in the search process for Carlee.
That's foul. The family needs to apologize to that poor woman.
Yep and the lady's daughter was killed. This is disgusting
Are you serious?! How heartless can a person be to look someone in the eye who’s kid was actually killed and act like you can relate to them. Ugh what a horrible person.
Aniah Blanchard was kidnapped and brutally murdered. It was a tragic story. Her mother lead the search for Carlee. She also got Aniah's law passed through Alabama congress. This carlee Russell and her family need to make a public apology to everyone who got out to look for her sorry ass on Saturday.

that's such a ridiculous "kidnapping" story. i can't believe Carlee thought anyone would believe it.
The sad thing is that a lot of people did.
@@vgsdomingo1 well i can sort of understand believing she was kidnapped *before* hearing that she said she was kidnapped by a clown, escaped, was taken again, escaped *again* and just wandered back home like nothing happened.

It’s weird that she chose to fake a kidnapping on a busy highway. When I first heard the story, I thought it was a quiet country road. It sounded so scary.

@@brookecarmichael3629 i think ur the one not from alabama if ur not familiar with the Killing of Aniah Blanchard
She didn't know there was a camera nearby which is why her story is so unbelievable. Nobody else on the road is slowing down or pulling over to help the toddler, she walks away because she's probably drugged out of her mind.
@@sexypimpx9 ANY non populated road is asking for you to be kidnapped. Not just Alabama, weirdo.

When my friend Stephanie Parze in NJ went missing, we searched the woods in 2 states for her, only to find her poor little body dead in freehold nj. Her abusive ex bf killed her then hung himself right before her body was found. This and all of the other false cases are a disgrace and totally make it harder for those who are in real danger or are actually victims of foul play. It infuriates me the more i watch and hear and read. I try not to believe everything i read but this is obvious she was lying. Her family is not at fault. They were terrified for her but its sad that they dont see through her lies. Thats very sad.
That’s so terrible and I’m sorry to hear that happened to your friend. I totally agree these hoaxes ruin it for legitimate victims because it can make police skeptical and perhaps won’t investigate as thoroughly. It’s also a waste of resources which could’ve been better spent on actual crimes.

One thing that you didn't touch on was that her parents apparently went to Atlanta, GA because they claimed they had a tip that that's where she was, but also said that they had already been planning to go to Atlanta. Did they lie about this? Was there a tip? If so, who gave it to them, and how? Why were they going to Atlanta in the first place? Isn't it convenient that the place they were going to was purportedly where their "kidnapped" daughter was taken? Was this a way to cover up taking a vacation trip to Atlanta even though their daughter was supposedly missing? Which leads to the question, did they actually know that she wasn't abducted?
Yes i found that so strange too. Vacation ? Unfortunetly i believe family will cover for her til forever and she will never learn. My mom would of killed me for doing this
With the way her mother spoke, Carlee has never had to take responsibility for her actions. Her mother came across as controlling as well because most of our parents know what we are capable of as their children. Mine will love you but you bet I'd have been Infront of the camera apologizing to the world and facing the consequences of my actions

Jussie was the worst thing to happen to Subway since Jared, and well, this is probably the worst thing to happen Cheeze Its.
I know several women in my life were scared when we heard the news that a toddler was used as bait. We know we would have stopped for a baby. Even with it being fake, I think the use of a child to lure people to be kidnapped was important for us all to think about.
Excellent point! Even so.... most of us are tender hearted enough to still want to stop and help a child. It IS scary to think that it could be a trap.
Good point! This likely even may have given somebody a NEW idea how to waylay people who otherwise would not stop or get out of their cars. If children are seemingly in distress, any "normal" empathetic person IMHO is evolutionary hardwired to let all guards down -> easy pickings for perpetrators :-(((
This young, but adult woman should be subjected to heavy consequences for her irresponsible conduct! IMHO she caused immense material and emotional harm for her family, friends and the law enforcement officers. I am torn between two explanations for her actions:
- she faked her abduction as a prank (like the Mexican influencer who staged kidnappings for TikTok - she featured some days ago on Dr. G's blog) by herself, or on a dare by an unknown person -> immature and insensitive
- she has a histrionic personality, maybe combined with juvenile schizophrenia (hebephrenia) and/ or a dissocial personality disorder/ early stage of Münchhausen syndrome (each condition individually, but also in combination possible, inpatient evaluation absolutely mandatory IMHO) -> reckless and attention-seeking, high probability for aggravation over time IMHO, even more hare-brained schemes and involuntary involvement of other persons are to be expected
*Regardless of the motive for her actions - by showing this amount of irresponsibility and contempt for the feelings and resources of the people around her she has IMHO forfeited her entitlement to continue her medical studies.*
[Opinionated complement on topic: To involve children as a lure could even further increase the success rates for an ALLEGEDLY already existing MO.
I remember that ca. 15 years ago several media reported and warned, that in sparsely populated areas in (TMK) the UK and Eastern Germany (bordering Poland) allegedly a similar trick was pulled:
On country roads without much traffic motorists suddenly would come across seemingly helpless persons lying on the tarmac. When the drivers stopped, left their cars/ motorbikes and tried to assess the situation, they were assaulted by accomplices of the decoy, and robbed of their belongings.
In response to the reports, initially referring to the UK, many persons came forward and corroborated the accounts. IIRC they alleged that something similar had happened also to them, albeit not in the UK, but in Germany.
-> Disclaimer: At that time only limited research regarding the truthfulness of the stories was possible (furthermore, I am no journalist or law enforcer). The region's notorious characteristics are known throughout Germany, this is not a prejudice. I know several people who can testify that the claims are true.
IN MY OPINION the accounts are entirely plausible. I believe that at least some incidents happened as related. Shortly after the emergence of the reports we moved to another country, so I Iost track of the topic. In hindsight it could have been a giant hoax, which I do not know. I could be wrong! Better safe than sorry.] {Typos = bonus ;-) }

I completely agree. I left a similar comment before seeing yours. It's the only reasonable explanation for what she did. I feel she concocted this fanciful story because she was in panic mode not wanting her family and friends, and her BF, to see them. She may have even been blackmailed which may have caused a psychotic break in her of some kind, causing her to want to flee the area and completely disappear. (although she can't escape the net) Whatever she was going through it had to be a lot to be willing to destroy her job and leave her red Mercedes sports car behind.
Candace Owens, on her show, mentioned there was some speculation or rumors that she might have been involved with a 17 year-old teen and manufactured this story to spend time with him. If true, she has even more problems to contend with. (sigh)

I’m not an expert but she did not sound like someone in mental distress during the 911 call. She sounded very coherent, almost like she was carefully choosing her words.
Yep she knew what she was doing
Why did she hang up with 911 and then call her girlfriend when approaching the baby... LOL... she must have been at the bottom of her Psych graduating class if she couldn't come up with a more realistic story...
I agree with you that she seems to have wanted to get the attention of a few people she was close with, specifically her boyfriend and possibly her parents.
She didn’t expect to become international news, she thought she could disappear, freak her family out then show back up and be afforded extra attention.
It’s clear that she lacks the ability to thing anything through, so once things got out of hand she lacked any kind of plan and couldn’t find a way to craft a story that made sense.
Apparently her boyfriend has removed all trace of her from his social media so I don’t think her plan worked…
The boyfriend posting about how she is fighting for her life for two days and then he basically stripped her out of his life is the nail right on the head. It's OVER, honey! Your assessment is spot on.
What weapon did he use?? A healthy young woman just gets "overpowered" without a massive fight? Did he choke her out, drug her, smash her head in, what?? Possibly. He was a kind guy not wanting to rough up her wrist skin though.
But I think those naked photos was to up the ante WITHOUT any sexual assault as there would be no DNA evidence. That would have upped the potential charges and necessitate a rape evaluation kit.
She failed her Nursing class and didn't know how to go tell her parents
She is disappeared now for real!
@@marthahanley6650 And without her phone she did not realize how it blew up! Thought she could just walk back and boyfriend would welcome her back
Finally, the public took missing Black women seriously and was lying. they should not allow her to return to nursing school. She proved that she is not trust worthy. As nurse you have to have trust from healthcare professionals and from your patients. As nurse do you think that would take responsibility for errors? No, she would not. This is my opinion, she be removed from nursing.
“Hey Empire ! ,,, this is MAGA country !”
If she get charged for lying to authorities, filing a false police report, etc , she’s likely not going to be able to get a job as a nurse. She’s probably just gonna have lots of student loan debt and a defaulted note for that flashy red Benz.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
If I was black, I would beat her AZZZZ for pulling that sh/t. Should change her name to Carlee Smollette.
As a nurse myself, I agree. She stole from her work and defrauded law enforcement and the public (and likely even her own family). I wouldn't be able to trust her as a colleague at all, and I doubt any patients would feel secure with her either. She should not be (and probably won't be) allowed to become licensed.
People don't care bc like the joker said "it's all part of the plan"
I agree. I don’t think she had a mental episode. I think she was trying to attract as much attention as possible until she realized how non-believable her fake story was. I think the reason she didn’t continue with her charade was because she knew somehow that law enforcement was unraveling her lies, and law enforcement in this case was smarter than she initially expected, and she had just enough smarts to know not to go forward like Jussie did. Jussie was more of a narcissist than Carlee, but I believe they still fall into the same category. They’re completely okay with making up lies for their own sick agendas, even if it means using valuable resources like law enforcement to do so. They both expected people to be unintelligent enough to believe their wild stories, and viewed themselves as having some ultra level of intelligence that would make it easy for them to convince people of their lies. I won’t be surprised if she ends up trying to gaslight law enforcement, the media, and even “white people,” just like Jussie… we’ll see..
apparently the secret service was even called for help! I dont think she expected that much

Very astute observations.
Your video is a better synopsis of this story than ANY “professional “ media source.
Your subtle humor had me laughing so hard an analysis wouldn't be fair.
I clicked so fast whenever I saw this video. Dr. Grande did not disappoint.
i have deep concerns for the Mediterranean food, was it left in the car? was it ever consumed? or was the existence of it also a lie?
It did exist! Lol It all was left in the car!!!!

@@BobbiGail her Mom was waiting on her food
So glad to hear what you have to say about this case. Can't get accurate information on the news about it. Thanks again!
Dr. Grande. Thank you for your analysis. Also, thank you for your sense of humor. It gets me to chuckle every time.
Faken. 💀
Being a black woman, I didn’t want this to be what this eventually turned out to be. The moment I heard that there was just one singular call, being hers, reporting a “child” walking on the highway, I knew that this was a hoax. Then the video was aired of her car on the highway and she’s exiting, grabbing her snacks (that the kidnapper fed her) and there was no child. I think that this was pathetic of her to do. I don’t know if she thought that no one would care if she left other than her target (the bf), did she consider the street cams and ring cameras? She was blinded by attention seeking so badly that she didn’t stop to think of the end result and how idiotic she’d look once the details come out. I hope that she gets the help that she needs because honestly, that’s where all this stems from, her needing mental help. Glad that she is home and physically safe, but she wasted a lot of time, resources, opened a lot of wounds for those who have lost a child that were helping to chase her “diapered toddler and cheez it” hoax! Her poor parents, dad mostly because mum in my opinion seems to be the main facilitator of allowing her to get her way and not holding her accountable.
I think there’s a good chance her parents haven’t held her accountable for most of her life.
Something is wrong with her because she left a perfectly functional Mercedes and piping hot Mediterranean food for Cheez-its at a Red Roof Inn.

Very well said 👍
@@grammichal6759 I think so. Dad’s getting beaten into submission and seems to be the whipping boy for both. You could see that he wasn’t comfortable agree with his wife during the interview but knew he had to. Maybe it’s because they love each other as a family and want to seem united behind Carlee, but he sure did seem to not want to be in that interview.
She should serve time in the way of community service that aligns with her crime, like search and rescue or something similar, this way she can see the effort people put out trying to locate the missing.
She?
's studying to be a nurse. She should know rhat what she did is not helpful to anybody. She is so self-involved she doesn't realize with her impact on her community.
That's a really good idea Cheryl

@@cplmpcocptcl6306 I admit it took me a good 12 hours. XD
I didn’t believe it at all from the start .
It was the hysterical tone of some of the news coverage and many many concerned comments that had me thinking it might be true but I always felt skeptical.
I BRAKE FOR TODDLERS!
I’m actually found two different toddlers wandering! One - 2 1/2?- was being chased and his caretaker caught up within a few minutes but the other 18 month old in the middle of an intersection on a 2 lane rural highway was clearly neglected.
True. I was feeling so bad for her and even prayed for her to be found. My God! What is she but a waste! She should be publicly ridiculed until she apologizes to everyone...and is forced to pay for the 'amber alert'. She cares for no one.
I actually have found a child wandering in the middle of the street.... Her details were so ridiculous that I knew the story was fake.
It was last summer in the middle of July. I was about to go walking when I noticed a car following a kid up the road. He was between six and eight years old. At first I thought it was a kid running from his parents. Then I realized it was something different. I dropped my dog's leash and ran after the little boy to get him out of the road.
The woman following him in the car got out and asked if he was my child.. I told her I thought she was his. She was following him trying to catch him.. He was a nonverbal autistic child who had obviously snuck out of the house and gone wandering.
All it takes is a second.
And I did call emergency services. I called them as soon as I got the kid back to my house around the corner And gave him cold water and make sure he was under some air conditioning. And I turned on PAW Patrol for him. So he would stay calm because I was a total stranger.
The police arrived about 15 minutes later and positively identified him as a child that was reported missing by his parents.
That's what actually happens when you find a missing child on the road....
Wow!
I’ve found wandering toddlers TWICE!
I BRAKE FOR TODDLERS!!!
@grammichal6759 Exactly! The kid I found was on a side street, so I was the only one who saw him besides the lady following him. If there was a toddler wandering the highway, there would have been a thousand 9 11 calls, and 20 people would have stopped.
There was no anxiety or concern in that 911 call
"alien toddler training for the Olympics" 😂😂😂I can't...LMAO Love how you can say everything with a straight face!
Sh!t man it's 8 am and I'm at work laughing my a$$ of at this commentary! So glad i stumbled across your page. This was a great breakdown and absolutely hilarious!
Awesome video. I agree- she clearly did this to get the attention of her ex boyfriend. By reviewing her twitter posts for the last few months, it is clear that she doesn’t have self confidence, had an obsession with having a husband/man, and she seemed miserable with her life. Very sad but also a horrible thing to do and I hope she learns a lesson, gets some help and has both forced and natural consequences for her actions.
Wow! I guess the cops saw this too...
I feel the same way. And now she has basically made her life way harder going forward. I hope that she finds a good therapist who can work through everything with her. I don’t believe she had malicious intent, but I do think she is going through some things. I really wonder if she might have borderline personality disorder.
My 1st thought was this was all over a man..ie..an ex..ex I expect is thinking missed a bullet on that one!
@@d.n.8919 perhaps histrionic, narcissistic & borderline traits?
And I had felt sorry for her thinking she had a mental breakdown when she was planning this. I don't understand people that do things like this and she still needs mental help for thinking this was a good idea. I hope she is fined for falsifying a police report and faking a kidnapping. And your right every time someone googles her name this will come up and will follower her for likely the rest of her life.
Here are a few of my thoughts on the Carlee Russell case: I think Carlee is spoiled and was trying to get her mother's attention. First of all, if a person picked up food for them and their mom and was only 10 mins from the house, the first person they would've called is their mom. It seemed like she wanted her mother to feel what it would be like to lose her. Also, she wanted to appear as some type of hero by trying to save a child and a good person by purchasing food. Her mother made a statement that she knew where ever Carlee was she would "fight her way out" She made a statement like this a couple of times during interviews. In Carlee's story, this is what she did. Something tells me that this isn't her first attempt at lying and deceiving people. You could tell by the(possible step) father's face. He seemed disgusted and wanted no part of the whole thing.
Her mother seems like one of those, "my-kid-can-do-no-wrong" types. Now she can't deny she has a deep problem on her hands.
She was trying to get her boyfriend’s attention and sympathy based on released (without permission) text messages. She had got into an argument with his stripper side chick.
Sounds about right.
My thoughts : she was on a drug date with a man and freaked out and started to call the police on her way home- realizing she made a horrible mistake she then decided to fake a kidnapping. She likes the attention anyways.
It's not that deep. Don't give this Disgusting hoaxer sympathy. She should be in prison for costing tax payers money to search for her
@@toidIllorTAmIdoesn’t explain her texts beforehand “planning it all”
You are always very informative while taking the time to be kind. Going forward Carlee has alot of really embarrassing lessons. Sadly she never really realized what she was creating. I am sure she wishes there was an easier way out of this mess. I do pray that she does not find her situation too much to face and decides to take her own life, to avoid what is ahead of her. This is truly a very sad situation. Hopefully her family will continue to support her and will maintain close contact with their daughter to ensure she has people who love her. And the public needs to go easy on her. I do think she is about to face a very difficult road ahead. 🧐😢❤️
I think the idea that she was trying to impress someone has the most merit, but it does speak to her mental state if she thought such a convoluted story would make this person, or anyone else, think she was anything but bonkers.
That's what I've been thinking and you explained it really well. I don't think she did this with malfeasance in mind. She did some totally bizarre things. Why steal a robe and toilet paper from her workplace? She probably owns a robe. And, she could have bought toilet paper at Target. And, why did she do these searches on her own phone and work computer where they could be so easily found? And, the timing of some of the searches indicates that she wasn't sleeping. Did she not even consider that there might be cameras on the interstate since cameras are literally everywhere? Heck, I don't even pick my nose in my car anymore because I assume I'm being filmed every second that I'm outside my house. And, nobody in their right mind would believe they could actually get away with this (emphasis on "right mind") and have a positive outcome. A lot of the things she did indicate that she absolutely wasn't in her right mind. She obviously snapped. Maybe some compassion is in order here.
Or else maybe she's just not very bright.
@@Ariadne76-k3dYes. Your theory gets my vote.
She needs to be punished (charged) in order to deter others who may seek attention, likes, money, fame, from doing the same.
I imagine she will be. Sherry Papini was sentenced to 18 months.

I was extremely sympathetic to her as her story fell apart because I assumed she must have been experiencing a psychotic break. Her internet searches, however, indicate this was NOT a break from reality, but a planned deception.
The only realistic part was the cheez-its detail. They're actually pretty damn good, believe it or not.

Love the photo of Hairplug.... Another very amusing video.
I can’t believe I fell for this nonsensical story 🤦♂️
I feel stupid for thinking a trafficking ring would use a child on the side of the highway to abduct someone…
If it makes you feel any better I defended Pappini and was for a while appalled at what I thought was the callousness of those doubting her. 😕
So do I. I thought to myself if kidnappers could use a toddler to lure an adult, what in the world are they doing to that toddler? I cried hard about the whole ordeal. Then I realized she lied. A whole different flood of emotions have made me silent and reflective.
They literally have before though.
@MerkleAkrunphleuphle what case?
I fell forward too so don't feel bad I think a lot of people fell for it
Excellent analysis Dr.Grande! Thank you for covering this case
I wouldn't rule out her initial plan to become a heroic celeb, putting her life on the line while saving a toddler, and actually being kidnapped while doing so...
However, once realizing the police ain't taking the bait and arresting Ron Howard, she decided to lay low and hopes it will blow over.
"and arresting RON HOWARD" 🤣😂🤣😂
quick Carlee, think of the whitest man you know..
ROOOOOONNNNN HOWWWWAAAARD
It sounds more like prince Harry, Megan Markle and Archie kidnapped her😂
@@kaylashomecrusade Excellent !😂😂 How in the world did she come up with the bold spot & orange hair at night ?😂😂
Yeah, Ron really dodged a bullet with this one!
The thumbnail and title of this video is everything 😂
Never change Dr. Grande.
Something most people missed in the official press conference is that the police stated that they had information on additional google searches that she made that "give insight into her mental state" but that they would not release the content of those searches in order to protect her privacy. And then I read somewhere that her bf was messing with a woman who was the mother to a toddler. I have no idea if that is true or not, but somehow I sense that, as Dr Grande said, she did this for attention, for an audience of only a few people.
I almost fell from my chair at 15:38. Every time someone mentioned her kidnapper having "orange hair and a bald spot" I thought of one particular person, and when Carlee allegedly reported hearing "a woman" talking, and later feeding her cheese crackers, I thought, "yep, she's mentally ill and thinks she was kidnapped by Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. The baby in a diaper was not a boy, it was Lilibet." Then you posted the picture you did. I was delighted and amused by the coincidence.
be careful! Just Harry will sue you!
My first thought was Bozo the Clown, lol.
I don't think that she thought that this stunt was going to blow up so big and so fast. She didn't realize just how many people adored her and were seriously hoping to find her. How many missing black women have a $25,000 reward posted for her safe return? Let alone $50,000. She is embarrassed and ashamed and she needs to be. Time to grow up and pay the piper, Sweetheart. I'm so glad that you are home and safe and with the people who love you. You had such a bright and beautiful future.
Add to the fact she didn’t know her job and pretty much everywhere has surveillance cameras?
And how your search history is never actually gone?
This is sad. She went to great lengths for attention and it’s backfired spectacularly on her. She has to live with the shame and humiliation. I hope she gets the help that she needs.
Not only that hee career is over as well
Its 2023, she could flip this into reality t.v, onlystans, xes Tape there's plenty of avenues to exploit this for financial gain.
Narcissists can’t be humiliated they have no empathy
Txs Dr.Grande you sure perk my day up. The latter part of your videos are so dead on to what happened. Txs again
Clearly she premeditated this entire hoax and was very cognizant of exactly what she was planning on doing as well as knowing what she was doing was wrong.. she knew she needed to lie to carry out her plan. The evidence of her own google searches says everything we needed to know about her premeditated hoax. How many REAL missing people actually deserve the response this con artist received.
Amen. It was definitely premeditated. And that's why she shouldn't dare use a sudden mental health crisis as an excuse for what she did.
100% agree. I bet she never dreamed this would go viral. What a cruel hoax.

It might not matter because the rumor is Carlee had flunked herself out of nursing school.
Allegedly she recently left the nursing program. It was alleged that her exit was “academic performance related”….
She failed nursing school afraid to tell her parents! Duh 🙄
