She tried to murder a young girl- with no remorse whatsoever! How do you serve 2 years for that and rejoin society? That doesn’t seem like justice at all.
OKAY YA'LL - QUIET DOWN. I was in the courtroom for Nancy's sentencing, and I can tell you how Nancy received such a lenient sentencing. After the verdict was delivered, the courtroom listened to Presiding Judge David Brabham seethe with moral outrage as he admonished Nancy Moses, who until that moment had appeared utterly unflappable. Then, Nancy gave the Judge (and the entire community of Kilgore, TX) a piece of her mind: "Sometimes I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion!!!" The Judge's leniency gave proper consideration to the greater context of the Rangerettes as an institution in Kilgore. A storied pillar of honor, pride, and tradition within their community. The Rangerettes are worth fighting for ya'll! And after all, isn't that what Nancy Moses did?
@@Meela234My wife is from Texas. Her soccer team won the state championship. My wife went on to get a full scholarship at a very good Div 1 college. Her coach never cut a single player. She stopped cutting players because of all the emotional issues it caused. She would tell the players that were not any good, you’re on the team but you will never play in any games. The team always had at least 20 plus players that never played and they were fine just being part of the team. This was in the late 80s.
“Some people carry a road emergency kit, Nancy carried a stalker emergency kit. People never know when they will become a stalker, therefore it is important to be prepared.” 🤣 Dr Grande I’m crying in laughter 🙌🤣
I keep a firearm with me almost everywhere I go, but since my hair has come back post brain tumor, I don’t wear wigs anymore, so they’re all in storage somewhere. Maybe I need to be more prepared.😜🤣🤣🤣
Sounds like Nancy was bored with her own life and sought to live out drama, meddling in her daughter's life. A very dangerous woman and disturbing she is released already. Zero empathy. A true narcissist. Sure feel sorry for her daughter, Kylie. Thanks Dr. Grande for your analysis and satirical comments throughout. "What happened to the salmon dinner?" 🐟
No, but what happened to the Salmon though? That’s the real crime and question here. She left the salmon out cold. She should have received fifteen years just for that. No excuses. W O M A N .
Right? Nancy sounds like every busybody, overbearing, church Karen I've ever met. Their kids are always narcissists due to their mom's worshiping them.
"What happened to Kyle's dinner?" *chef's kiss* Thank you, Doctor Grande, for daring to ask the tough questions that cut right to the heart of the matter. Keep up the good work! Cheers.
Honestly, if I were this lady's daughter, I'd probably go non-contact. Imagine if the daughter started veering from the path Nancy wanted. If she can't live vicariously through her daughter, then what would she do to "fix" the situation?
Totally agree. Can you imagine if she ever gets fired from a job? Or even interviewed for a job that she doesn't get? This woman is dangerous in my opinion and does not belong out on the streets.
Ahhh...she ALREADY HAS SHOWN what she will do if her "fantasies for living vicariously thru her daughter" DONT become realities. She should be kept in a locked mental health facility...this woman is criminally INSANE! Daughter needs to "de-tach" from octopus mother, or her own life will be very tragic one!
What I am wondering is what does the daughter think of all this? Story was that her mom was too intrusive into her relationships and it caused a break up. Next thing you know your mom is being arrested for kidnapping and you find out she tried to strangle one of your peers to death but made it home in time so dinner would be ready. It’s a new world of information into the person that parented you. Like, mom, what tf are you doing? Where did this come from? Why?! You’re making it harder to be normal. You quite literally are ruining my life. Oh you were trying to help? How are you gonna help me if you need help too?
Now THIS is an excellent example of our unbiased legal system at work. She got the same sentence anyone would get, regardless of skin color, age, sex, social status, wealth, etc. Right?... right?
This case reminds me of Wanda Holloway, who tried to hire a hit man to kill the mother of her daughter's cheerleading rival. She was also from a small Texas town. With it's mixture of banality and violence, this world make a great subject for a Cohen Brothers movie.
Exactly! And to have the Rangerettes involved which are also a Texas institution (arguably invented or made famous the good ole high kickline and have been the focus of numerous articles, documentaries, etc) Ah, DG, you killed me with the dinner comment! 😂 Seriously though, a total aspd/narc quite likely and still a complete danger to society.
Just as Texas takes “Friday Night Lights” H.S. football seriously, they ALSO take drill team, cheerleader, and majorette seriously. A high school classmate who didn’t make majorette due to “band parent politics” (quid pro quo crap) transferred to another high school with her parents’ blessing, and breezed through the audition, no problem. She even ended up becoming head majorette at the new school. It’s true, parents vicariously living through their kids to an unhealthy degree make things worse for everyone!
It is amazing how light of a sentence she got. The judge must have slept through the trial cause surely all the evidence was there. Thank you. By the way she was a mean looking woman...but cooks a hell of a meal I guess.
It would be interesting to know what Nancy's high school experience was like. That she identified her daughter's rejection to the team as "bullying" is what struck me.
As Grande tells the case it feels more and more like that classic meme from Anchorman that says "well that escalated quickly". In reference to the mothers behavior.
I've been pondering a very serious aspect of this channel for a while. Does Dr. Grande wear Crocs? I've reviewed the clues, but they do not steer me either way. On the one hand Dr. Grande is very well dressed and groomed, which leads me to a resounding "No", but on the other hand I can see Dr. Grande being a practical person who could appreciate both the utility and comfort of Crocs. This is quite a mysterious case. I'm hoping the good doctor can weigh in.
I think he’s in shorts and flip flops under that desk but I could be so wrong. And now I want to know the truth. Never even thought about this before now it’s gonna bug me 😆
Wait. Why wasn’t she charged with attempted murder? She choked her unconscious and when she came to she said, “oh, you’re still breathing?” What the heck! I totally thought Dr. Grande was going to say the question we’re all wondering was why she wasn’t charged with attempted murder. When he said, “what happened to Kyle’s dinner?” I literally flew in the air laughing!!! 😂😂😂 this is one of the most hilarious videos he’s done and they’re all funny! It’s probably easier to make them funniest when no one died (thankfully!) I literally loled through the entire video. Thanks Dr. Grande for another great speculation! 😂 👌🌵❣️
I live in Houston (Harris County, 3rd biggest county in the nation I believe) and have for over 20 years. Unfortunately, I’ve had firsthand experience with this; in lieu of “attempted murder,” prosecutors will charge the defendants w agg assault w a deadly weapon (second degree felony). In 2019, I was one of two victims in a case like this…we were stunned when he was not charged w attempted murder but it just doesn’t happen here in Texas. Prosecutors won’t do it.
The immaturity we see people display is just mind boggling. How the hell did mom get this age, raising children, holding down a job & still be so out of touch or immature? Idk if the daughter was even privy to her mom's actions before she did them. Both parents showing up must have been so confusing & upsetting so dad didn't see it either!!??? Doesn't seem like the kids have much of a chance. SMH sad all the way around.
Ah world, when will we value women for being past sexual? My mom felt like her life was over at 17, pregnant and married she was bereft. My sister lives vicariously thru her daughter’s glam young life, we’re not remarkable in our unhappiness. Thoughtful and productive analysis Dr. G. You, as usual, rock.
Probably some of the best psych content on this platform - so glad I came across this man. He’s the only person who gets a like on every video because he asks
That slap on the wrist sentence is absurd! Kidnapping with a deadly weapon, and sitting on the young woman's chest and choking her, then taping her mouth and leaving her in a storage facility, deserves much more jail time. As usual, I completely agree with you, Dr. Grande.
It's crazy how some people go to prison for many years for nonviolent crimes. This lady does something that deserves a life sentence and does a couple years.
I did find it as intriguing as a "kidnapped delayed dinner." ;D Sadly, those types of parents are out there where they have no fulfilling or separate interests or passions of their own, so they make their children's lives their life mission to control.... poor children! Super great video, Dr. Grande!! ♡
Dr Grande, you should make a video analyzing the mental health of Anna Anderson, the woman who pretended to be the escaped daughter of the last czar, Anastasia. Or even just a general video about the numerous imposters who pretended to be any of the Romanov children. I think that would very interesting!
Could you talk about the Ana Kriégel murder in Ireland? She was a 14 year old murdered by two 13 year olds. It's a really shocking and interesting case, I would love to know what you think of it.
I'm not familiar with Ireland's justice system, but if it's anything similar to the brits system then I assume the 13yo's were given hugs and sent back to their family.
One of the key elements in life is the doing of justice and concern for those who suffer injustice. In this case, there was more emphasis on justice to the salmon dinner than to justice for the ones that Nancy said she really cared about. In this case, the optical lens was turned inward rather than outward, and the perverted sense of justice remained the key observation. The justice observed in this case, and the justice deserved, were on two different levels. May the Salmon Dinner forever Rest In Peace. R.I.P. !@!@!@ Your sense of *justice* in this case was profound. Too much people pleasing (trying to please their daughter). Thanks Dr. Grande 👍
Good morning Dr. Grande! The days are rough. These videos are a bright spot. I have my book! I'll get some down time to dive into it this weekend! Can't wait!
"Whatever happened to her husband's dinner? Did he ever get to eat it?" You crack me up, Dr. Grande!! Very good analysis, spot on about the judicial system too!!
I know this was a serious crime but this is hilarious. What happened to Kyle’s dinner? 😂😂😂🤣 Nancy had some serious issues. I’m not sure what was going on in her head. Maybe getting employment/hobby at least part time may have provided her less time to concentrate on high school nonsense. It’s important to Nancy, I get it. But in the scheme of things, a dance troupe? Her daughters’ high-school love life?? What kind of role model is this mom? I feel bad for her daughter too.
I feel bad for the daughter, too. What's she going to do when her daughter doesn't get into Yale? Kill the Dean and burn the school down? I hope the kid runs away and joins the circus. Anything, to get away from mommy!
Nothing says criminal mastermind like when someone asks, “Where’s my gun?” I died. 😂 😂 😂 Not only were you funny 😆. But, this could’ve been made into a comedy
This video had my Alexa in a tizzy.😆 Thanks for another great video, Dr. Grande. I just placed an order for my travel size stalker kit. The oversized greeting card is on back order. ☮️💜👽
Your delivery of this presentation was impeccable! I love your use of humor! I had never heard of this case before, but your analysis of what happened was perfect! Have a great day, Dr Grande!
Congrats on 1 Million Dr. Grande. I'd like to think your humor has played a large role in your ascent to 1 MILLION subscribers. Can you please analyze Scotty Kilmer and his need to yell in the driveway?
I would have hoped that sentencing might have included enough time (and therapy) to eliminate this individual being a danger to whatever community in which she eventually settles.
Uh, who goes around kidnapping random people for no apparent reason? I’m not diagnosing Nancy but … that lady is batsh*t crazy. I hate to think what would have happened to the poor kidnapped girl if Nancy wasn’t so preoccupied with dinner.
Thank you for another very interesting and utterly hilarious analysis. Nancy was clearly bat guano nuts, and your ability to keep a straight face while describing her bizarro behavior is indicative of a man with nerves of steel. I had to stop the video to collect myself on several occasions. :-)
Is there a stalker school somewhere I can go to,or is it OJT only? Great stuff Dr Grande. I know this is a true story, nobody can make this stuff up. Appreciate your humor.
@0:34 , very responsible... Dr.Grande is a good crime presenter . Neutral emotions , no sensationalizing pitch , no dark background music for effect , No dramatization and no sidelining with unwanted opinion .. Very matured and evolved way of presenting crimes , much appreciated.
Of course, it's in Texas, it reminds me of the [Wanda Holloway, Pom-Pom Mom case in 1993], Maybe you could look at that case too Dr. Grande, if you haven't already. Thank you, and salute from Texas.
Dr. Grande, if you haven't already, can you please do an analysis on Thierry Tilly and his takeover of the the Vedrines family (and their estate/castle/fortune) in France? It's an unbelievable story and Tilly sounds like a very interesting case study.
One key takeaway - Nancy should've opted for delivery instead of homemade. It would've prevented Kyle's concerning, and frankly, distracting phone during the task at hand.
Talk about small town drama momma! Also, money idea, Dr. Grande’s stalker kit. Make sure it comes with a card with 1-800 mental health phone numbers to call before stalking someone…
Again, I don't usually laugh out loud to your dry, deadpan delivery of humor, but "What happened to Kyle's dinner?" caught me so off guard I couldn't help myself!
I honestly can’t get enough of these videos because I love true crime, and hearing the facts in a short timeframe rather than having to watch an hour long special, or series, is much more convenient. You get right down to the facts and sum up the stories so they’re short enough to be listenable. That’s why I subscribed, and obviously also why a MILLION other people subscribed. You get millions of views per month. Go figure. 👍
Dr. Grande I agree that Nancy Motes deserved longer in jail. In addition she should have been required to pay far more than $500,000.00 in civil court since Alexia may have permanent injuries now in her lungs, structures in her brainstem, etc. which will make it harder for her to succeed in both dance and/or in university -- All which may shorten her life span. Those kind of injuries cannot be proven through any medical tests right away in an emergency room on the same day in which they happen.
OKAY YA'LL - QUIET DOWN. I was in the courtroom for Nancy's sentencing, and I can tell you how Nancy received such a lenient sentencing.

Oh Dr. G! A master as usual! "People never know when it will be necessary to become a stalker and therefore it is important to "be prepared!" (Isn't that the Boy Scout motto?) You are the master of dry wit. I absolutely love it!
2:30 "Everyone thought the drama was over, but they were incorrect." LOL. That sentence could become a staple of storytelling, like "It was a dark and stormy night..."
Dr. Grande, I appreciate your clarifying that we should be carrying an emergency kit of stalker items in our vehicles in addition to the standard emergency kits. This is very important information as you are correct in that we never know when we will need them. 😁
Thanks as always for the valuable information Dr. Grande , I’m headed out now to get my “ stocker emergency kit!” 😂 to think I’ve been driving around all this time with just the basic emergency car kit is frightening!! You’re truly a lifesaver! Congratulations again on the one million subs!! 🎉
I just read about this case in Texas Monthly. One of the educators involved referred to parents like Nancy Motes as lawnmower parents, a step or two beyond helicopter parents. If you get in the way of what these parents want, they will mow you down. I was also shocked that Nancy's sentence was so light, given that she used a gun and kneeled on the girl's chest to stop her breathing. The reason that the young lady was able to get out of the storage area was because of her conditioning and training as a Kilgore Rangerette. She had to scale several tall fences to escape the space. Nancy was probably also outraged that this girl was a Rangerette, and that Kylie most likely would never be. What a strange and scary woman.
I agree, why was her sentence so short? As for her daughter, if I were her I'd seriously consider getting counselling and making an escape plan ready for when Nancy finally loses it completely.
Thank you so much for the "stalking kit" comments! It was a great laugh. I appreciate the humor. It felt good to laugh! The snowman disguise, hilarious. 😄 I lived one town away from Kilgore, I pictured it all! Hahaha!
lol. Thanks for all the laughs I got from this one, Dr.Grande! You've taken your comedy act to a whole new level with this one! 🤣 When I wasn't laughing, I was astonished. So much strange and odd behavior, it almost sounds made up! 🤯 That woman is a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic basket!!! 🧺
LD - How much does Texas have to do with this mind set? Participation in sports is the holy grail! Parents push their kids hard to excell! Living vicariously causes mental problems and the feeling of helplessness can cause over reactions! My kid must win!
@@bthomson I know a lot of parents who are way too involved with their kid's sports. Complaining they don't get enough play time, the coach is biased, screaming horrible things at the opposing team members, who are just kids, themselves. I've never heard of anything like this level of 'involvement.' I'd like to think it's just this woman, and nothing to do with Texas. They DO seem to be obsessed with their kid's achievements, though. This behavior only hurts the child, in the end, though.
Thanks for following up on the salmon dinner! My goodness gracious me and gee golly whillikers, bless my crinoline dandies and Melinda Gates' mittens, I fairly squooshed my pantaloons laughing. 🙀 Also, I think we all appreciated the details on a proper stalking kit - wig, duct tape, and firearm, plus the all-important Oversized Holiday Card (Hallmark or Shoebox Greetings "disguise" line, available in "snowman," "Easter Greetings from Timberline Lodge," and "Santa Claus With AK-47"). What was that movie with a young Jake Gyllenhaal and the song "Mad World"? Hey, didn't his movie little sister belong to an eyebrow-raising dance team? And Jake's character took a lot of psych meds and kept waking up in sodden golf courses, while receiving instructions from an imaginary, grotesque rabbit who informed him about neighborhood predators, causing him at one point to flood his movie high school? The "wet high school" bit showed up again in the TV series "Glee." Remember when the kids did "Singin' in the Rain"? That school auditorium stage was drenched with water. Okay, that was NOT believable (stage rot - sagging boards come up, holes develop in the wood, dancers fall through & suffer terminal injuries to their torsos, later excavation finds gruesome charred skeletons and tragic propmaster suicide) - but - ho-hum, it was TV, and great rendition of the song and dance. Speaking of precision dance teams... HAHA! Anyway, great vid, Dr. Grande! 😀
I think this case exemplifies the destructive outcome of boundary violation. Sometimes in close relationships such as romantic and parent/child relationships the boundary lines tend to get a little blurry. Appropriate barriers in close relationships are just as important as the ones we keep with a distant acquaintance or a boss for example, it allows independence and space for growth and learning. I am all for parental involvement, support and supervision, however involvement in anyone’s romantic relationship, even one’s own child, is off limits to me. Setting limits may not be easy when you are very close to someone but I think that’s one of the ways to keep a relationship healthy and strong. That was a thought- provoking analysis, thank you Dr. Grande.❤️
I so enjoy your videos: Each one is concurrently interesting, educational and entertaining . You are a master of dry humour: The pressing question of Kyle’s dinner LOL: I did not see that one coming at all!! I burst out loud with laughter. Tks so much. I appreciate the belly-laughs.
Oh my gosh! What a story. It is so strange, to me, how many people can not seem to accept any firm of rejection in their lives. Our societies' 'love me or die' attitude seems to be growing.
There are people on TV that call themselves comedians, people who put so much effort into trying to amuse their audiences or make them laugh. These Dr. Grande videos are bite sized stories that, in my opinion, are engrossing and unfailingly amusing. I have involuntarily exhaled more than one beverage through my nose in response to Dr. Grande's dry, deadpan sense of humor.
She tried to murder a young girl- with no remorse whatsoever! How do you serve 2 years for that and rejoin society? That doesn’t seem like justice at all.

@@kaylasmith3856 yes they do. (Or maybe you're being facetious, I can't tell.)
I live in Houston (Harris County, 3rd biggest county in the nation I believe) and have for over 20 years. Unfortunately, I’ve had firsthand experience with this; in lieu of “attempted murder,” prosecutors will charge the defendants w agg assault w a deadly weapon (second degree felony). In 2019, I was one of two victims in a case like this…we were stunned when he was not charged w attempted murder but it just doesn’t happen here in Texas. Prosecutors won’t do it.
The immaturity we see people display is just mind boggling. How the hell did mom get this age, raising children, holding down a job & still be so out of touch or immature? Idk if the daughter was even privy to her mom's actions before she did them. Both parents showing up must have been so confusing & upsetting so dad didn't see it either!!??? Doesn't seem like the kids have much of a chance. SMH sad all the way around.
You'd be surprised. I was a Nanny & the things I witnessed! Smh
’ Nothing screams criminal mastermind like losing your gun and asking the victim ”where did the gun go?” ’
I laughed way too hard at that
Ah world, when will we value women for being past sexual? My mom felt like her life was over at 17, pregnant and married she was bereft. My sister lives vicariously thru her daughter’s glam young life, we’re not remarkable in our unhappiness. Thoughtful and productive analysis Dr. G. You, as usual, rock.
Probably some of the best psych content on this platform - so glad I came across this man. He’s the only person who gets a like on every video because he asks
That slap on the wrist sentence is absurd! Kidnapping with a deadly weapon, and sitting on the young woman's chest and choking her, then taping her mouth and leaving her in a storage facility, deserves much more jail time. As usual, I completely agree with you, Dr. Grande.
It's crazy how some people go to prison for many years for nonviolent crimes. This lady does something that deserves a life sentence and does a couple years.
There are still people serving LIFE sentences for Marijuana related "crimes"....
I did find it as intriguing as a "kidnapped delayed dinner." ;D
Sadly, those types of parents are out there where they have no fulfilling or separate interests or passions of their own, so they make their children's lives their life mission to control.... poor children!
Super great video, Dr. Grande!! ♡
Dr Grande, you should make a video analyzing the mental health of Anna Anderson, the woman who pretended to be the escaped daughter of the last czar, Anastasia. Or even just a general video about the numerous imposters who pretended to be any of the Romanov children. I think that would very interesting!

Could you talk about the Ana Kriégel murder in Ireland? She was a 14 year old murdered by two 13 year olds. It's a really shocking and interesting case, I would love to know what you think of it.
I'm not familiar with Ireland's justice system, but if it's anything similar to the brits system then I assume the 13yo's were given hugs and sent back to their family.
@@Maceman486 one boy got 24 years and the other got 15 years.
@@Maceman486 it seems you know neither the irish nor the british legal system.
It's stories like this that make me so grateful that I'm a hermit.
One of the key elements in life is the doing of justice and concern for those who suffer injustice. In this case, there was more emphasis on justice to the salmon dinner than to justice for the ones that Nancy said she really cared about. In this case, the optical lens was turned inward rather than outward, and the perverted sense of justice remained the key observation.
The justice observed in this case, and the justice deserved, were on two different levels. May the Salmon Dinner forever Rest In Peace. R.I.P. !@!@!@
Your sense of *justice* in this case was profound. Too much people pleasing (trying to please their daughter).
Thanks Dr. Grande 👍
Good morning Dr. Grande! The days are rough. These videos are a bright spot.
I have my book! I'll get some down time to dive into it this weekend! Can't wait!
"Whatever happened to her husband's dinner? Did he ever get to eat it?" You crack me up, Dr. Grande!! Very good analysis, spot on about the judicial system too!!
The Wilson from “Home Improvement” reference. 😂💀. Congratulations on 1mil Dr. Grande! Well earned and deserved. I look forward to your video each day.
Failure is a natural part of growing up, no matter who’s failure you’re vicariously experiencing.
I know this was a serious crime but this is hilarious. What happened to Kyle’s dinner? 😂😂😂🤣 Nancy had some serious issues. I’m not sure what was going on in her head. Maybe getting employment/hobby at least part time may have provided her less time to concentrate on high school nonsense. It’s important to Nancy, I get it. But in the scheme of things, a dance troupe? Her daughters’ high-school love life?? What kind of role model is this mom? I feel bad for her daughter too.
I feel bad for the daughter, too. What's she going to do when her daughter doesn't get into Yale? Kill the Dean and burn the school down? I hope the kid runs away and joins the circus. Anything, to get away from mommy!
👯🕺🕺💃🐘🏟🎪🎡🎠⛄🌨🤹🏋🤸🃏
@@bthomson Looks like you've got the entire Peanut Galley in your dance troupe! Love it! 🤗 💃💃
Nothing says criminal mastermind like when someone asks, “Where’s my gun?”
I died. 😂 😂 😂
Not only were you funny 😆. But, this could’ve been made into a comedy
Oh, how I love your sense of humor!!
This video had my Alexa in a tizzy.😆 Thanks for another great video, Dr. Grande. I just placed an order for my travel size stalker kit. The oversized greeting card is on back order. ☮️💜👽
Mine, too! It interrupted the video so often, I wound up yelling at it to shut up! 🤐
That thing is so annoying. It's even worse now that my son changed her voice to Samuel L Jackson's.
On MY tablet! 😠
Your delivery of this presentation was impeccable! I love your use of humor! I had never heard of this case before, but your analysis of what happened was perfect! Have a great day, Dr Grande!
Congrats on 1 Million Dr. Grande. I'd like to think your humor has played a large role in your ascent to 1 MILLION subscribers. Can you please analyze Scotty Kilmer and his need to yell in the driveway?
You are the Best!! You make me laugh out loud, yet control your laughing! Love it! She needs a hobby, besides her daughter!!
I would have hoped that sentencing might have included enough time (and therapy) to eliminate this individual being a danger to whatever community in which she eventually settles.
Uh, who goes around kidnapping random people for no apparent reason? I’m not diagnosing Nancy but … that lady is batsh*t crazy. I hate to think what would have happened to the poor kidnapped girl if Nancy wasn’t so preoccupied with dinner.
Total psychopath! (not diagnosing, only speculating what could be happening in a situation like this ;) )
Thank you for another very interesting and utterly hilarious analysis. Nancy was clearly bat guano nuts, and your ability to keep a straight face while describing her bizarro behavior is indicative of a man with nerves of steel. I had to stop the video to collect myself on several occasions. :-)
Good morning, Dr Grande! 🙋🌵🪴🌵🪴🥶🥶 Hope you're nice and warm! Perfect timing! Thank you! Hi, everyone!! 🌞🌞🌞Stay warm!

This is one of the best showcases of Dr Grande’s great talent in comedy! I laughed out loud. The comedy is better than the story itself. 🤠💕
Is there a stalker school somewhere I can go to,or is it OJT only?
Great stuff Dr Grande. I know this is a true story, nobody can make this stuff up. Appreciate your humor.
There is. Just don't try to join the precision dance team.
Boy, that mother has done more damage to her daughter than the issue with the dance team.
@0:34 , very responsible...
Dr.Grande is a good crime presenter . Neutral emotions , no sensationalizing pitch , no dark background music for effect , No dramatization and no sidelining with unwanted opinion ..
Very matured and evolved way of presenting crimes , much appreciated.
He treats us like the grownups We are!
I love your dry humor. You've always got me laughing with your straight-faced jokes. Keep it up, doc. 😊
i just love the way he sneaks in the humor. it almost gets past you and leaves you saying hey wait a second rewind
Of course, it's in Texas, it reminds me of the [Wanda Holloway, Pom-Pom Mom case in 1993],
Maybe you could look at that case too Dr. Grande, if you haven't already. Thank you, and salute from Texas.
Ok and here I thought my mom was embarassing. Gotta go apologise now
Dr. Grande, if you haven't already, can you please do an analysis on Thierry Tilly and his takeover of the the Vedrines family (and their estate/castle/fortune) in France? It's an unbelievable story and Tilly sounds like a very interesting case study.
One key takeaway - Nancy should've opted for delivery instead of homemade. It would've prevented Kyle's concerning, and frankly, distracting phone during the task at hand.
I love you..... You make my day it's a good thing I stopped driving since I'm too old to stalk. Thank you.
Lol...Dr. Grande has great humor and he nailed it with his focus on the concern over Kyle's dinner
Talk about small town drama momma! Also, money idea, Dr. Grande’s stalker kit. Make sure it comes with a card with 1-800 mental health phone numbers to call before stalking someone…
My kid didn't make the "Debate Team". We argued about it, he conceded. Probably for the best.
Again, I don't usually laugh out loud to your dry, deadpan delivery of humor, but "What happened to Kyle's dinner?" caught me so off guard I couldn't help myself!
I honestly can’t get enough of these videos because I love true crime, and hearing the facts in a short timeframe rather than having to watch an hour long special, or series, is much more convenient. You get right down to the facts and sum up the stories so they’re short enough to be listenable. That’s why I subscribed, and obviously also why a MILLION other people subscribed. You get millions of views per month. Go figure. 👍
Dr. Grande I agree that Nancy Motes deserved longer in jail. In addition she should have been required to pay far more than $500,000.00 in civil court since Alexia may have permanent injuries now in her lungs, structures in her brainstem, etc. which will make it harder for her to succeed in both dance and/or in university -- All which may shorten her life span. Those kind of injuries cannot be proven through any medical tests right away in an emergency room on the same day in which they happen.
OKAY YA'LL - QUIET DOWN. I was in the courtroom for Nancy's sentencing, and I can tell you how Nancy received such a lenient sentencing.
After the verdict was delivered, the courtroom listened to Presiding Judge David Brabham seethe with moral outrage as he admonished Nancy Moses, who until that moment had appeared utterly unflappable.
Then, Nancy gave the Judge (and the entire community of Kilgore, TX) a piece of her mind:
"Sometimes I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion!!!"
The Judge's leniency gave proper consideration to the greater context of the Rangerettes as an institution in Kilgore. A storied pillar of honor, pride, and tradition within their community. The Rangerettes are worth fighting for ya'll! And after all, isn't that what Nancy Moses did?
OMG...The card, the gun....this is so far one of your most Enjoyable Analyses I've seen.
You got It. 👌
Oh Dr. G! A master as usual! "People never know when it will be necessary to become a stalker and therefore it is important to "be prepared!" (Isn't that the Boy Scout motto?) You are the master of dry wit. I absolutely love it!
2:30
"Everyone thought the drama was over,
but they were incorrect."
LOL.
That sentence could become a staple of storytelling, like "It was a dark and stormy night..."
Excellent comparison 🤜🤛
Dr. Grande, you make learning about psychology so fun and interesting. I look forward to your videos. Thank you so much.
Oh my gosh Dr. Grande! I absolutely love your sense of humor!!!
Dr. Grande, I appreciate your clarifying that we should be carrying an emergency kit of stalker items in our vehicles in addition to the standard emergency kits. This is very important information as you are correct in that we never know when we will need them. 😁
Thanks as always for the valuable information Dr. Grande , I’m headed out now to get my “ stocker emergency kit!” 😂 to think I’ve been driving around all this time with just the basic emergency car kit is frightening!! You’re truly a lifesaver! Congratulations again on the one million subs!! 🎉
Wig - check. Firearm - check. Duct tape - check. Oversized snowman Christmas card - check.
Let’s roll.
stalker.
I just read about this case in Texas Monthly. One of the educators involved referred to parents like Nancy Motes as lawnmower parents, a step or two beyond helicopter parents. If you get in the way of what these parents want, they will mow you down. I was also shocked that Nancy's sentence was so light, given that she used a gun and kneeled on the girl's chest to stop her breathing. The reason that the young lady was able to get out of the storage area was because of her conditioning and training as a Kilgore Rangerette. She had to scale several tall fences to escape the space. Nancy was probably also outraged that this girl was a Rangerette, and that Kylie most likely would never be. What a strange and scary woman.
I agree, why was her sentence so short? As for her daughter, if I were her I'd seriously consider getting counselling and making an escape plan ready for when Nancy finally loses it completely.
Dr grande never disappoints with the hard hitting questions.
Thank you so much for the "stalking kit" comments! It was a great laugh. I appreciate the humor. It felt good to laugh! The snowman disguise, hilarious. 😄 I lived one town away from Kilgore, I pictured it all! Hahaha!
lol. Thanks for all the laughs I got from this one, Dr.Grande! You've taken your comedy act to a whole new level with this one! 🤣 When I wasn't laughing, I was astonished. So much strange and odd behavior, it almost sounds made up! 🤯
That woman is a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic basket!!! 🧺
LD - How much does Texas have to do with this mind set? Participation in sports is the holy grail! Parents push their kids hard to excell! Living vicariously causes mental problems and the feeling of helplessness can cause over reactions! My kid must win!
@@bthomson I know a lot of parents who are way too involved with their kid's sports. Complaining they don't get enough play time, the coach is biased, screaming horrible things at the opposing team members, who are just kids, themselves. I've never heard of anything like this level of 'involvement.' I'd like to think it's just this woman, and nothing to do with Texas. They DO seem to be obsessed with their kid's achievements, though. This behavior only hurts the child, in the end, though.
I do wear a wig!! (chemo)....but I swear I'm not a stalker.
No, but you could be one day. Better get your stalker kit, now! They're almost out of them on Amazon. 😁
Perfect timing Dr. Grande!! Always dependable for a great video!!
Some of the best comedy to date, Doc.
Came for the true crime, staying for the humour! 😆💁🏻♀️
Nancy must have had a hand in the invention of Participation Trophies. Thank you Dr. Grande. 😊
Honestly she doesn't seem like the type to be satisfied with a participation trophy.
@@TJDious 🤣
Was just about to post the Texas Monthly story for people but see you posted in your ref list. Thanks Dr. Grande.
Thanks for following up on the salmon dinner! My goodness gracious me and gee golly whillikers, bless my crinoline dandies and Melinda Gates' mittens, I fairly squooshed my pantaloons laughing. 🙀
Also, I think we all appreciated the details on a proper stalking kit - wig, duct tape, and firearm, plus the all-important Oversized Holiday Card (Hallmark or Shoebox Greetings "disguise" line, available in "snowman," "Easter Greetings from Timberline Lodge," and "Santa Claus With AK-47").
What was that movie with a young Jake Gyllenhaal and the song "Mad World"? Hey, didn't his movie little sister belong to an eyebrow-raising dance team? And Jake's character took a lot of psych meds and kept waking up in sodden golf courses, while receiving instructions from an imaginary, grotesque rabbit who informed him about neighborhood predators, causing him at one point to flood his movie high school?
The "wet high school" bit showed up again in the TV series "Glee."
Remember when the kids did "Singin' in the Rain"? That school auditorium stage was drenched with water. Okay, that was NOT believable (stage rot - sagging boards come up, holes develop in the wood, dancers fall through & suffer terminal injuries to their torsos, later excavation finds gruesome charred skeletons and tragic propmaster suicide) - but - ho-hum, it was TV, and great rendition of the song and dance.
Speaking of precision dance teams... HAHA! Anyway, great vid, Dr. Grande! 😀
I think this case exemplifies the destructive outcome of boundary violation. Sometimes in close relationships such as romantic and parent/child relationships the boundary lines tend to get a little blurry. Appropriate barriers in close relationships are just as important as the ones we keep with a distant acquaintance or a boss for example, it allows independence and space for growth and learning. I am all for parental involvement, support and supervision, however involvement in anyone’s romantic relationship, even one’s own child, is off limits to me. Setting limits may not be easy when you are very close to someone but I think that’s one of the ways to keep a relationship healthy and strong.
That was a thought- provoking analysis, thank you Dr. Grande.❤️
This was bad boundaries on steroids.
OMGOSH! Hey this lady is..... seriously sick.
Thank you Dr Grande for your humor. Brightens my day.
Crazy case!!! Love the dry humor SO MUCH!!!
Love your tongue-in-cheek comments about the salmon dinner. Your straight-faced dry remarks really gave me a good laugh.
I’m digging the sarcasm. It hasn’t gone unnoticed. 😂
I so enjoy your videos: Each one is concurrently interesting, educational and entertaining . You are a master of dry humour: The pressing question of Kyle’s dinner LOL: I did not see that one coming at all!! I burst out loud with laughter. Tks so much. I appreciate the belly-laughs.
Oh my gosh! What a story. It is so strange, to me, how many people can not seem to accept any firm of rejection in their lives. Our societies' 'love me or die' attitude seems to be growing.
I can't decide if this whole episode was horrible or hysterical. But I definitely agree Dr, Grande, this woman needed 20 years at least.
The doctor is in particularly great form today! Looking forward to an update on the husband's salmon dinner.
Could psychiatric treatment have been mandated in this case?
Seems indicated.
In April of 2019, Nancy changed her story. She now admitted to having worn a wig.
Dr. Grande takes deadpan humor to a whole new level.
There are people on TV that call themselves comedians, people who put so much effort into trying to amuse their audiences or make them laugh. These Dr. Grande videos are bite sized stories that, in my opinion, are engrossing and unfailingly amusing. I have involuntarily exhaled more than one beverage through my nose in response to Dr. Grande's dry, deadpan sense of humor.
Dr. Grande is ON in this one. Stalker emergency kit, super size snowman greeting card, cold salmon dinner.
The Question on everyone's mind made me choke on my Thai food. Thanks Dr. Grande. Congrats on 1mil.
You are so delightfully dry and twisty, Dr. Grande!!
Thank you for an interesting case analysis. I appreciate it. Life can be treacherous. Thanks, Grande.
Does the cat's car come equipped with duct tape and a wig?
