"Musician" and Wife Use Saw and Acid to Conceal Unthinkable Crime | Laura Ackerson Case Analysis 

That lady was set for life, having inherited from her late husband. And this is what she did with that opportunity. Wow.

Now there are three children without parents and a history of horrors.

To all the giirls who like "Bad boys" on the notion that they're exciting, unpredictable and confident. Take heed. Try settling with loving, boring and employed.

This man is literally the Key and Peele skit about Gun Rack, a rapper that writes his confession to a murder in a song.

Dr. Grande’s been getting progressively more savage & snarky in every new video, and I for one am SO here for it😂

I've seen this story before. Grant is an inept, boring guitarist and a terrible singer. He should have gotten prison time long ago for fraudulently claiming to be a music artist..

This is one of those cases that I’ll never forget. What stays with me is how the victim had very little to no support system. She was so strong to not only be able to leave an abusive relationship but to start a successful business as well. She seemed to be a really beautiful person inside and out. What happened to her was beyond evil. I think the worst part is that her children are with his family now. Absolutely heartbreaking. It’s better than them ending up in the foster care system but still just disturbing to think they are being raised by his mother who most likely loves that monster unconditionally.

"In addition to indicating that he may have been homicidal, the lyrics explain why Grant was having trouble making a living as a musician" 😮 We agree with you there Dr. Grande

The trip to the hardware store is a dead giveaway on so many murders. So some percentage of people at hardware stores are cleaning up a crime scene.

Never give anyone who's "exciting" and holds deranged beliefs the "benefit of the doubt" when choosing a partner. That one "rule" would have prevented Laura from losing her life. Very sad story.

Never fall in love with potential. It is seldom ever attained.

I’ve been considering purchasing a new reciprocating saw. But I keep going back and forth on it.

Grant had primary shared custody of the kids but that wasn't enough, so he removed Laura from the face of the earth to gain full custody. Except the only full custody he received was a life sentence in prison. RIP Laura.

Bless you for not playing any of his live "musical" performances. A year ago I watched a video on this and it included several. I can affirm that he was a hack (no pun intended).

Mad Musician moves in with Millionaire, Muddles with Murder Kit, Murders with Malice, Moves to DisMember her, Matriculates to Prison.

Can anybody explain how this truly odious and dangerous individual was given the main custody of his children? He should have had occasional supervised visits at the most. I hope the children are happy and secure wherever they are, despite the terrible fate of their mother.

Oh gee I was happy to hear that Amanda got some real time. I thought for sure she only got that first 16 year sentence and was pleasantly surprised that Texas had something else in mind.

Sure Amanda didn’t help her first hubs ‘break his neck’? Who dives into half a foot of water?

Some people will do ANYTHING to avoid being alone.

Dr. Grande acting like he is interested in perfume had me rolling. Loved it!

This is just one of many cases you've covered where a person has kills their ex-partner/ex-spouse over custody battles. But Grant had been assigned, at least temporarily, as the primary caregiver (as he was getting the the kids during the week and Laura was only getting them on the weekends.) I am just so confused about why that even made Grant consider such a violent act, let alone talk his new wife, Amanda, into it.

Why do people gravitate to losers like that! I don't understand it

Hello Dr Grande and Everyone from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada 🇨🇦

Dr. Grande has a future as an advertisement specialist. Billy Mayes would be proud.

Can't wait to watch your episode on Sean Diddy Combs 😲

How in love do you have to be to help your spouse dismember someone and bury them on your sister's land? I have not been that much in love before.

how could he ever look at his children again knowing he did this to their mother??

I love how he's a "musician" as opposed to a musician. 😂

We appreciate your insights, Dr Grande. You'll always have our support.

Gnarly crime, everyone seems so happy until the "timeline of the crime"

Dr Grande was weirdly enticing describing those scents... Do I sense a future in perfume commercials?

Baby mama drama and baby daddy stories often end with very unpleasant endings.

If I didn’t know it was true, I’d never believe a woman could be so naive. What the hell was she thinking?

Just because a popular type of reciprocating saw is called a Sawzall doesn’t mean one should saw absolutely anything with it…

13 years for murder, eh? I wonder if it was her gender, her money, or both that convinced a judge that feeding bodies to alligators is the kind of behaviour that denotes a personality that can be reformed.

That time again to ONLY speculate on what would happen in a situation like this. 😎

Poor Laura. I do not understand how he was given primary custody. Thanks for the upload Doc.

So many options for Amanda yet she went with having a kid with a loser who was in a fight with the previous spouse over their kids and then assisted in the disposal of a body....because he was such a catch. Traded the Carribean waters for Prison showers with the Gals behind bars.

The deadpan humor is priceless. 🤣As always a well delivered analysis of a psychopath's mind and chronology of events.

Dr. Grande, would you consider analyzing the case of Jack Lewis Marrow who died in 1983 in San Francisco? He was my brother and I was told it was a suicide, but the circumstances were highly unusual.

"Maybe he thought the fish were bigger in Texas".

I really like the way he delivers humorous lines with a deadpan face😅😅😅

😱 OMG I'VE MET THIS MAN!!! I used to go to a dive bar in Burlington, North Carolina and this guy was playing there in 2006!! There was a spot for live music, but this guy set up right by the front doors. All he had was a guitar and an amp with a bass track. I don't remember him being too bad, but there wasn't anything special about his music. He was a huge flirt, and bought me several drinks (I was a lush back then). Wanted me to go back to his hotel, but I wasn't comfortable going with him alone. I had no idea he had a girlfriend. Oh my glob, this is WILD!

I love to watch Dr Grande’s ads. For a brief moment, I thought the code said “Deranged”….which would be a perfect code considering the topics he covers! 😂😂😂

Disposing while despising as the diagnosis hits the right note and was key to the crime they tried to hide with lime light heartedly.

Two evil people, the poor lady. I feel for the children., love listening to Dr Grande.

Dr. Grande- your Scentbird ad’s fragrance note reminded me of a monologue worthy of American Psycho. What do you think of Huey Lewis and The News? Next time, I hope that Mrs. Grande’s selections get the same treatment. 😊

Home Depot surveillance footage and bleach stains/smell every time🙄

There's a saying involving coal and tolls, but I can't quite recall what it is...

Dr G is so adorbies sprucking 'scentbird' perfumes! I love it!

Both of them have crazy eyes

Greetings Dr. Grande! Thank you for all your work and videos. 🙏🏼

His lyrics definitely do explain why he was having trouble ! 😂😂😂 ! Dr. grande is great with these little one-liners. I love it.

On the bright side, Amanda doesn’t need to con lonely guys on the outside to put money in her commissary account.

He deserves life without parole for those song lyrics.

To be fair the musicians that make it are overconfident like him

The correlation of getting murdered to having chosen a loser is way too high. Choose wisely. Stay safe.

This is a lesson kids! Stop being with these type!

13 years for 2nd deg mrdr?! What! Disgusting.

These women really know how to choose their boyfriends and husbands. They zero right in on the worst possible man they could possibly pick then have their babies.

There’s something about the way Dr.G describes the franchise “Lotus blossom”with his famous deadpan delivery that has me SOLD I think I may use that promo code. But Dr.G seem more like a “Confessions of a rebel” kind of guy to me

Really appreciate Dr Todd's sarcasm in his analysis. Legend!

That woman needed life w/o possibility of parole.

Ah, the hack with a rock star dream. The remains of those hacks are the mountain Hollywood is built on.

i listen for the joy of quiet, subtle sarcasm, almost undetectable if you're not awake. And...if i may...the protagonists seemed to use more than 1 kind of acid.

Grant undoubtedly would have had more success as a Scentbird sales associate.

Sorry, but how do you dive into 6 inch deep water. 😮😮

I’m gonna ask the same question I ask every time why does the woman always get much less time? She’s just as guilty as he is !!! OK so I spoke to soon ! But if they don’t go after her on the tampering with evidence, she would’ve gotten 13 to 16 years. She’s a murderer just like he is.!!

If it wasnt for Texas Amanda be walking the streets!

Of course Texas comes through with a lengthy sentence. GOOD!!

I really enjoyed the promotional material. I might consider subscribing. Thank you.

6:11 Dr. Grande, that was cold! LMFAO!!! No pause between the trouble making a living and in a dumpster 😂

Watching from Los Angeles, California

I so appreciate you. I had a really hard day and your humor was just what I needed to pick me up. Thank you!😂

Was this the second consecutive video that mentions The Sopranos?

Now just waiting for Dr. Grande's take on "Quiet on set" documentary. Another case I would really like to see is the case of Russell and Shirley Dermond, elderly couple brutally murdered for no apparent reason in their isolated house in good neighbourhood.

This is a very sad story.

A good example of how circumstantial evidence can be as convincing as any evidence. I mean my god, all that shopping, crime scene, exchanging text and phone messages hours before her disappearance.

I love how you slide jokes into your assessments . I often get caught snickering at your videos. 😆

I spent time with Amanda in ft. Bend county jail when she was on trial for all the stuff she did in Texas.

I hope Laura’s sons got at least two thirds of Amanda’s money.

I'm guessing Amanda had something to do with her rich husband's demise as well.

So Grant was willing to lose all custody of his children and his own freedom just because Laura dared to defy his demands. Poor Laura. Poor children! On a side note, Dr. Grande, I love how you put the victim's name in the title of the video instead of the killers. She deserves to be remembered.

If they let him have a prison guitar, he can play to a captive audience. Then they get soup.

I really enjoyed Scent bird, easy to cancel if you are financially strained😂😂😂❤❤❤

I couldn't stop laughing when Dr. Grande said 'The lyrics explain why he was having trouble making a living as a musician'. The lyrics were absolutely horrendous! They didn't even rhyme at all. lol

grant: youre probably wondering why i'm buying these coolers? they are not for what you suspect, theyre for bait i'm going to use in texas. yes, i love to fish and i use copious amounts of bait. clerk: your mustache just fell on the floor

INSANE! Anyone bother to check his children for these same characteristics?

Cool! Amanda is a rich heiress. She will have a lot of canteen money for her entire time in prison. It won’t be so bad.

How did that psychopath get majority custody. Also, how did he imagine he would explain to his children what he did to their mother.

This tale could be the ideal inspiration for the next Coen Brothers movie. Excellent marketing tie-ins could include Sawzall retailers ("Get Legless!"), bleach wholesalers ("Feel the Burn!") and, if we hear the male protagonist "singing", military-grade earplugs ("Could You Repeat That?).

It surprises me that Laura only realized that Grant wasn't a "good" husband after having 2 children with him.

"over-sized posterior region" yes yes yes⚛😀

I'll be the first to say that just because you can't make a living off your music, it doesn't mean you have no talent. But it's a moot point because of the psychopathy and whatnot.

What was that, “magical prison journey” - should be on a t-shirt 😂

The question should be how does a 27-year-old woman have 3 children with this man then end up so vulnerable that she ends up dead. Maybe the speculation should be about a person like her

I love Commodity fragrances ❤

Dr Grande, I absolutely love Scentbird. Especially the Deck of Scarlet selections. Thank you for your work. I enjoy your videos so much!

Might be my favorite scent bird promo ever lol

Dr. Grande with a succulent take on an intriguing case, as always. 😏
