Daughter Conspires to Murder Mother | Rachelle Waterman Case Analysis 

The last part about Laurie writing a note to Rachelle to tell her how much she loves her is heartbreaking. So sad. 💔

That is the saddest case i have heard. The callous indifference of Rochelle. She is punished - she will now live her whole life without her mother, the one person who would have loved her and supported her always. Poor Lori, that poor, poor mother

Imagine holding your newborn baby in your arms and wondering what this precious being was going to be like. The thought that this beautiful baby would grow up to be responsible for your murder or a life of crime. This is tragic. The trauma for both her dad and brother must be unimaginable. She should have done more time.

"The police decided the alibi was... inconceivable." I see what you did there and I approve.

Nothing like starting a Tuesday morning listening to Dr.Grande! Heartbreaking, It really hit different upon hearing about the note that was written. All her mother wanted was more connection and the best for her daughter. Only to be murdered as reciprocation.

I was waiting for this one Dr Grande. I was a Livejournal member in those days and spent an entire dumbstruck Saturday watching this drama unfold on that platform in real time. It was a fascinating early demonstration of the Internet community at work. Thank you very much, I especially enjoyed this episode. 👍

Some if the friendliest, nicest people I've ever met were on Prince of Wales island. Definitely isolated folks, small towns, tight knit.. but I never felt more welcome and everyone jumped to help fix our camper free of charge when it broke down.

Off topic - I visited several randomly themed channels this weekend, and read some comments here and there, and was sincerely shocked by how hateful and unfriendly people were! Dr Grandes subs really are the nicest I’ve seen on YT. It really is a community here 🤗💕

INCONCEIVABLE! Horrific crime, but this side quip was well played as always, Dr. G.

Of course, Rochelle's guilty! Who "jokes" about killing their Mama, or anyone, for that matter? She should be in prison.

Thank you for the work you do Doctor...these videos are a fresh dose of logic presented in a format of unbiased information, and such a thing is extremely hard to come by nowadays.

Love that you upload so frequently, Doctor! I listen to you while I drive and at home too 😁

This case highlights the thin line some people walk, particularly when in their teens and twenties, between rebellious behavior and serious crime. I wonder how many of us actually were at one time or another just this side of homicide. If anyone still wonders why all the youthful murderers today, consider this, and then add the influence of violent, escapist movies and video and the utter inability of parents, or society for that matter, to limit the violation of youthful accessibility. The reality is that a young woman wishing her mother dead is far from a rare thing.

What a sad shame. Thank you for discussing and analyzing this case.

"Inconceivable"🤣🤣🤣🤣

This is just one of many reasons why a rebellious 16 year old girl should not be hooking up with a desperate, 25 year old, anti social male. It never ends well. Thank you for the early morning video, Dr.Grande. It helped make the tedious job of updating my computer a lot less aggravating. (stuck at 97% atm) 😡 Love the new fade ins/outs of the pics. Excellent editing, Doc. 👍

I grew up in Australia, born in 1960, into a very middle class family, went to a middle class high school and my friends were all the same. As a teenager, I was extremely rebellious, my poor mum was on Valium at one stage as she thought that I was uncontrollable. But even during those times when ai was revolting, the thought of ever laying a hand on my mum just never occurred to me. I did call her a cow once on the phone, but only after I thought she had hung up, but she hadn’t. My mum always thought that I would end up in prison, a bit melodramatic considering I never did drugs or was involved in crime. I actually ended up working for the Police for 15 years. My mum is now 85, and I now of course feel terrible for the way that I behaved towards her back then, and am so glad that she is still here, being a great mum. I will never understand anyone wanting to hurt their parent/s. Impossible to comprehend.

Hey Doc, have you done a video on the Hart murders from 2018? Two white women adopted six black children, some with special needs, and abused them for years before driving the family car off a cliff, with all eight of them inside. Really sad and shocking case, I think you would do it justice

just in time! i was just starting to get ready for work!

Such a disturbing case. How can someone do that to your own family? Great new format, analysis. Thanks Dr G😊💙💙

You should've leaned in harder to the Princess Bride jokes. "You killed her, prepare to die!" "She told always told her abuser, 'As you wish'". "He was in a parking lot, and the 'man in black' attacked him" 5:35.

Good Morning Dr. Grande💞 It's really refreshing to have a new video of yours to watch nice & early in the morning. You're most definitely helping me through my morning. Thank you🤗

Three years for having her Mother killed !? WOW .. As a teen I only raised my voice to my Mom one time .. I still feel guilty about that long after she has been gone .. BTW .. If Mom had told my Father about my outburst .. I would not be alive & in one piece today .. Some people have no idea what love is .. I cannot understand those people .. TgT

Im here wishing to have a Mother and this monster killing hers. Sooo sad.

My mind is blown away, as to how a child can kill their own parents.

"Inconceivable"! Bahwawawawawa 😂

It is always sad when the child you raised and cherished doesnt share your feelings. How much sadder and heartbreaking when your child wanted you dead?💔😪

I'm dying that "the shirts" have a cameo in this episode! 😍🤣

The ad has Dr. Grande standing in his vast wardrobe closet! He's in front of his shirt rack! He even has a Halloween one with jack o' lanterns on it! Doctor Grande, therapist to the nation's consciousness and fashion icon!

Obviously murdering anybody is far beyond the Realm of acceptable. But murdering your own mother is just something that I couldn't imagine in my worst nightmare. I don't even know how to properly express how it makes me feel. Same with filicide.

Dr Grande my wife complains she has to hear your voice every morning here in OZ

I remember hearing about this on LiveJournal back in the day. Thanks for the analysis and research, Dr. Grande.

I saw Brian's televised interview from his prison. He appeared well-groomed and was quite articulate as he spoke "matter-of-factly" about committing this murder. He seemed proud of his "accomplishment"; and said that he had promised Jason he would do his part... Brian further stated that when he makes a promise to a friend, he will not break that promise. He was like a "dog with a bone" about killing this woman. It was chilling to observe his demeanor.

Great video as always. Can you cover the case of Karina Castro from San Carlos, CA. She was beheaded in broad daylight by an ex boyfriend

Thanks Dr. Grande! As always, I really appreciate your thoughtful, compassionate and thorough analysis. I listened to your content while doing the backbreaking work of renovating a home. I am not a big fan of television or true crime, but listening to your analysis of psychology and personality types is very interesting, informative and often entertaining, especially your use of dark humor to soften the horrific nature of such tragedies. I am beyond stunned by the human depravity you often describe in your commentary. So often, circumstances quickly spiral out of control and end up so tragic. The outcomes are just devastating. Thank you again for your thoughtful, compassionate and informative analysis, I really, really appreciate it. It has given me much insight into the human condition. Now I’m afraid to talk with strangers, hahaha. ;)) Kindly and Gratefully, Dennis

Inconceivable!!!!!

The idea of conspiracy shows how disturbing cases like this are. It never surprises me the level of depravity humans are willing to go in the criminal world. Sad. 🤔❤🇺🇸

"Inconceivable " Dr. Grande you slay. 😆 🤣

Very good analysis. So sad this happened. No value for human life. I remember this case. The guys did not know how to kill. And she was tortured. I wonder how the dad and brother are coping. This is a huge betrayal to the family

Come to Craig, Alaska! The boredom here is deadly.

Thank you, Dr. Grande! Happy Tuesday💪

It’s just amazing to me every time I hear about a teenager outsmarting adult men! Who the heck is raising these people?

An unexpected delight this early! Thanks, Doc!

Ps..Thank you Dr. Grande for another interesting, informative, and witty video! The melancholy always starts to grow once I have watched all of your videos. So I was extremely happy to see this one. You are most certainly the hardest working RU-vidr! I'm always excited about your podcast, thank you for more your awesome videos, sincerely 😊

Great morning Dr. Granda.

OMG, my daughter is 16 and is a bit distant from me. Thank God she stays at her mom's place.

Dr. Grande, good morning!❤️

Video comes just in time to pair perfectly with my morning cup of coffee 😄

Thank you, Dr Grande!

Wow, the fact she wrote her daughter a letter wanting to be closer to her, is heartbreaking. Me and my mum had rows, but I think that's the teenage condition, isn't it? I wonder if she suspected had sent the man who was now killing her? So so sad

Hello Dr G - Happy Tuesday 😊

Love your quiet way of speaking!

TO THE CREATOR: Dr. Grande, I dig your show, and you have a soothing voice, but I think in the beginning you got the images of the gentlemen in the story confused. The blonde dude (pictured with goatee in your video) was the boyfriend and the dirty blonde dude was the friend (pictured in orange jumpsuit).

Another stupid murder by stupid murderers

Inconceivable! Love it. ❤😂

Very smooth with the princess bride reference 👌

I like this vid. Good insight and Great analysis.

That's so sad about the mother reaching out, writing a note, etc.. One can only hope the murderers didn't tell the mother that they were doing this on her daughter's behalf. but I'm sure they did. That poor mother.

Stories like these are the reason I’m single for life, no kids, and loving it. Since when does teenage rebellion include killing a parent? Seems pretty common these days and I can’t believe it. It’s horrific.

Wow criminal mastermind, did all that and then didn't do a simple thing like both say the same alibi!!! She got off very lightly.

Some of the things the mother said as they were bumbling her murder were so pitifully sad. She was forced to consume alcohol beforehand and it was really sickening. I really hope Rochelle suffers.

I loved the peek inside Dr. Grande’s closet during the Upside promo! 😂

Dr. Grande, just to point out something. When you show the first picture of Jason, that is actually Brian.

Thanks for having the ad at the start and not right in the middle where ot destroys the flow of the video.

the alibi was inconceivable!

You drive a truck? Wow who knew. Always interesting. Thank you. Peace 💕🇺🇲

Good Afternoon,Dr. Grande.

Inconceivable... beautifully placed

Doc, those eyebrows! You could tell the story with the volume off, and we could still manage to find where YOU find the story bizarre/perplexing or just plain silly:) Edit: I DO remember this! And I recall the idea of this unattractive partner. What I don't understand, is how she could go through with the er, act. If she wasn't serious, she wouldn't have consummated the relationship. Or, IDK, maybe she felt this was a good trade off. Or, maybe it was NEVER consummated. TY for this informative analysis;)

Inconceivable!

I love your channel. I even listen when I have a migraine; I just muffle the sound under my pillow.

Thanks

Inconceivable…. Ha!!!! Very good!!! I know exactly what you meant by this. Thank you, I really needed a laugh.

Dr. Grande: I'm guessing there's not a lot to do in Craig, AK LOL Doc, that is an understatement. Social life seems to revolve around either the Bars or Church. The weather is dismal. However you would be hard pressed to find a more caring group of people anywhere on earth, where not picking up a hitchhiker or someone just walking on the side of the road could easily result in death (from weather.) "Interesting" side note: the tiny village of Craig is the site of the infamous 1982 F/V Investor murders of the Coulthurst family and their crew

Hey now, the princess bride is actually a fantastic movie and definitely on the top 10 list of my favorite all-time movies. Lol. Inconceivable!

Such a sad story. I wonder how she feels today?

Inconceivable that she was not involved or maybe even the mastermind

😂 always learning new words from the Doc. Skinflakes. I can’t unhear this one

Please more videos. Lots more

So sad.Poor mother.

Very interesting. Amazing how teenage talk can turn into murder of a Mom. First off Rachel's parents never should have allowed her to have adult male friends. Yes, Rachel was rebelling, and her parents needed to give her just enough rope to let Rachel believe she had more freedom than she did. I know my parents did that with me. If this method had been useful Rachel's Mom might still be alive.

Cases like this make me so sad. There are great moms like this one who love their children dearly and would do anything for them and then there are others like my own mom who I would have done anything for, who told me she regrets ever giving birth to me.

Surprisingly enough, Minivan of Death is also the name of Dr. Grande's thrash- metal band.

Rachelle, at some point, had to concede (during her interrogation), "Gee... you're doing a pretty good job at making me sound like I'm the person who was in on this whole thing!"

Inconceivable

My name is Rachelle. Dr. Grande is saying my name!

Yikes!

Thank you Dr Grande, for the great content you upload daily, it never fails to make my day. Thank you Dr Grande. Brilliant analysis and sad topic. Once again thank you Dr Grande, you are the best. BTW our son thinks it play time again lol.

@01:14 Meg dating Quagmire comes to mind.

Can you please cover the death of Amanda Rabb while in the care of Lima Jevremovic?

Good morning🌄🌌♾️🧿🙏🏼..wow!!..in the morning or evening..I guess, I like listening you too getting ready to go to work...As I have been saying the last couple years I guess, you should get a Audiobook deals..love your soothing voice...😊🙌🏼

INCONCEIVABLE!!! 👸👰‍♀️

I feel so horrible for how terribly Lori was killed! She sounded like a very devoted mother that deserved so much more! I think what you expessed at the end- may have been the true case. "Often, when a bad idea is introduced, it is immediately discouraged upon being transmitted. But in this case- the opposite happened. At every stage the idea was amplified."

Sounds like there's no downside to Upside:-) Another tragic story! Rachelle was as guilty as Charles Manson. Neither one of them physically committed a crime but both were masterminds behind them. This crime gives new meaning to >>> "a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’

This just made me so angry! I can't believe that Rachelle was only given 3 years 😳!!! Without her initiating the events that not only ended her mother's life but what a horribly terrifying & long assault! I just can't fathom this at all! This girl had a mother that loved her, provided for her. It's not like she was being abused! I just feel that until there are appropriate consequences especially for murder, it's sending a really bad message. All 3 should have received the same sentence! Without Rachelle, her mother would be alive! What a unbelievably cruel betrayal!

Inconceivable!!! Anybody want a peanut? 🥜 Get it? From Princess Bride! I can quote the entire movie. 😂

Inconceivable alibi. Nice.

I would LOVE to see Dr. Grande wear a shirt that matches the brick wall behind him. Maybe I need an analysis ... Wonder if I can get one w/ Dr G ?

There are sick people in our World
