Secret Assassin? | Todd and Carole Garton Case Analysis 

It's always advisable to involve as many people as possible in your secret murder plan

"Murder free divorce. Those are the most popular kind". Dr. Grande 2022

'He was a sniper in the IRA at 16.' ' But he never set foot in Ireland' ' Only goes to show what an amazing sniper he was, picking off targets from thousands of miles away in the US.' Hilarious!

Todd: "I'm a professional assassin, not a locksmith!! I have no idea how to get passed this locked door. Mission over"

I don't think I've ever heard about this case before. I love your sense of humor and your analysis. Thank-you for sharing!

I "like" the video before I even watch it. That shows the quality of your videos, and the enthusiasm I have viewing these videos. Thank you for never disappointing.

Todd was a legend, in his own mind.

Great video Dr. Grande! I am an overnight behavioral health technician at an adult drug and alcohol rehab. I like to listen to your videos while I work alone all night lol

Thank you, for the interesting content...always excited to see the notification!

I love Dr Grande - legit, doesn’t matter what I’m doing throughout the day… I open RU-vid and see what Grande has been up to and if there’s a new video 😂 RU-vid suggests Grande’s videos now as soon as I open the app. Really great summaries.

Never heard of these people- no worries, Dr. Grande will tell me everything I need to know 😉

Good late evening, Dr Grande! 🌵🪴🍀🌵🪴🍀 Nice to see you! Have a good weekend! Thank You! Hello, everyone!🌝☺️🌚🌛🌜🌞💐

If someone told me they were a "secret" assassin (not much of a secret now is it) I would snort laugh 😂

Todd failed to get the proper assassin certification.

Murder free divorces are the most popular type! Lol 😂 i can imagine a divorce lawyer advertising their business as “contact us for your Murder Free Divorce!”

Hello Dr. Grande, love your humor, this case was very interesting, love to follow you, great stuff. 👍❤ Best Regards

Glad they were all caught & sentenced. Never a loss for terrible & bizarre situations to cover 😑🙄 Thanks Dr G😊💘💘

The case of Missing Skylar Peterson Tosic would make for excellent speculative analysis. As always keep up the amazing work you’re doing Doc. Feels great watching your channel grow and grow throughout the years. ❤️

He tried to involve everyone in the plan. That's where he made his mistake. If he'd just waited for social media to be invented he could have opened a Facebook group for recruiting created a RU-vid channel to chronical his planning and preparation start a go-fund me for supplies and logistics then make several Tik-Toks during the act. With a bit of luck Raid Shadow Legends and Bang energy would have sponsored the whole thing.

Your humor is amazing. "People get Non murder divorced all the time" Classic!

I'm up late tonight because the clocks go forward, that's why I caught a Dr Grande video so soon. Looks like I'll be having a lie in tomorrow.

YES! Only 20 minutes new when I clicked on!!! Love it! I'll check again at 2:30 a.m. lol!

Thank you for another great interesting case review and video Dr. Grande! ❤️ You're the best, thanks again for all the time and thought and work you put into creating such quality entertaining and informative content! We all ❤️ you and are grateful! If you listen to one of the subscriber milestone videos where Dr. Grande talks about a typical day for him, it really does take a FULL day's (10 hrs or even more) or sometimes weeks worth of work to produce each video, I guess that's why they seem so much more informative and quality info than many others I've come across. He invests so much into each video. He is the only creator who's Patreon I've joined, and it's bc I appreciate having all this excellent content, both newer videos and older ones teaching about all aspects of Psychology. Thanks for all the work you put in that stimulates our brains and sometimes makes us laugh til we cry! 🤓🧠🤗🌵❤️

Todd's missions for the Marine Corp were so deeply secretive that the Marines didn't even know about them.

This is crazy! RIP Carol 💔💔💔

I'm going to have to create an Excel spreadsheet to follow this story line!🙇‍♀ I didn't think there would be any math involved in this melodrama! One more time Dr G....when did the train leave the station???

I love “murder free divorce”. I’m surprised there are as few as there are based on what I’ve been experiencing. 😂😂🤣🤣

"Murder-free divorce" Mine almost wasn't...

Wow, thanks Dr Grande. The excitement level around here is whether to order pepperoni or supreme pizza. I'm grateful for that!

Absolutely hilarious. I adore your videos and admit I'm addicted. Also, you are close to reaching 2 million. You deserve it!

I remember watching a documentary about this case. Norman, the one who killed Todd's wife Carol, had a son who was in his custody. I believe Norman was not going to kill Carol because he was very fond of her however, Todd told him if he didn't kill Carol, "the company" would kill his son. This is what pushed Norman to go ahead with the murder. Imagine telling your son - (who knows you are the only person in the world he has) that you are an idiot that is going to spend basically the rest of your life as well as most if his life, in jail. My heart ached for Carol and her unborn baby, whom she was so excited about giving birth to as well as Normans boy. I do not remember his age at the time.

Truly the most dangerous combination in most of these cases are Dr. Grande's analytical prowess and his dry humor.

That was an excellent analysis as always. Thank you so much Dr Grande.

Dr. Grande. This case is very interesting to me. I served 8 years in the U.S. Army as an Infantry Rifleman (2001-2009). I deployed to Iraq in 2005 for one year. This type of made up hero worship is actually MUCH more common then people think. The VAST Majority of people who serve in the military as non-combat Soldiers leave the military and make up MANY MANY stories. Most claim they were Infantry when they weren’t, claim they were Rangers, Special Forces ect…. Its actually very sickening. They then have people believing they were great war heroes when they never did a damn thing dangerous. For all of Iraq & Afghanistan if you were not in a Combat Arms job (Infantry / Combat Engineer for example) - your chances of being injured were like 1 in 10,000. Yet most of the Soldiers who were in the rear with the gear drum it up to be much more than it was. I wasnt Special Forces (one of my regrets). But I was a Grunt and i’m proud of that. If you were a cook fine, be proud you were a cook, dont lie to yourself and others.

AITA for being here so early and loving it? Thanks for this intriguing story, Dr. G.

Video: "Hello, this is Dr. Grande" - Me: * furiously mashes thumbs-up *

Although having a first aid kit and being an assassin can have its merits, the essence of being an assassin is to swiftly and precisely annihilate a target and to get out of dodge, so they must be a crappy assassin. Great vid dr Grande

Dr. Grande.......always a pleasure to see you and to watch your videos. I love your analysis. You never leave out all views. Thank you.😎🇺🇸🙋❤️

plz keep doing cases i’ve never heard of! so interesting

Your sardonic tone makes your videos very worth watching☺️

Best scientific analysis vlog show on RU-vid

“I guess in all his secret missions he never encountered something as formidable as a deadbolt lock”🤣😂😅 This story would be comical if it wasn’t so tragic. Thank you for another excellent review.❤️

Dr Grande , you have become one of my most favorite youtube creators, I love your content. I agree on this case , it sounded like little boys playing pretend war games. Just silliness! It’s very sad someone ended up actually being murdered. I’m thankful they were caught as they may have kept killing others after the first murder was done. Like young kids trying to out do each other. Much love from Huntsville, Alabama, USA.

Good Evening, Dr Grande.

Brilliant analysis Dr. Grande! Thank you! ♥

Todd could have avoided all this trouble if he answered his true calling. Anyone that creative should have been writing independent comic books, "The Company" could have ended up being optioned for a movie!

Just watched the "What about Pam" miniseries, hope Dr. G will do one on what kind of person she was...the narc/aspd living among us all! 😬

Talking secret assassins, the life story and psychological profile of Jason Blaha would be a treat to see.

Watching your numbers Dr. Grande, great job!

Great video

Poor Carole did nothing to deserve this. So sad.☹ But, lol, you sure made it way too hard for us NOT to laugh! 🤣 Thanks, Dr.Grande.

A triumvirate of silliness, these guys.

A double feature Dr. Grande for Saturday night! Maybe? Thank you Dr. Grande. I said earlier your charming, you always will be! You and yours have a beautiful evening!

I'm sorry, but almost all of this video made me laugh! I think you summed it up perfectly when you said " It was comically obvious that Todd was lying." What a case.... Thank you for everything that you do, both the ridiculous, and also the very deep topics! ♡♡

How did he manage to find 3 idiots that believed him?!!! And Dr. Grande your comments about why being on a hit list might possibly play a part in the divorce just had me on the floor!!!

Oh the sarcasm 😂 😆 😅

What an interesting story, those people are like deadly kids in fantasy land. Just incredible that he could convince two people in the millitary how his imagined experiences were so much better than their real ones! Excellent case, thank you for the video.

Dr grande, can you please analyze the case of Anthony Sowell.

It's shocking how people can be so gullible to spend years of their life following a narcissist sociopath. It's proof they have empty lives with no friend or family who love them

Lynn Noyes was released after doing 16 years.

OK... another case for which I need a secret decoder ring 🤔 I lost track of who dated/married/propositioned/slept with/worked for whom very quickly 🥴 my ancient addled brain cannot keep track of all this! 👵🏻 So I just sit back and let Dr. G's soothing voice lull me into a sense of euphoria. 😌

A man who lives near my grandparents dresses up and recreates war battles with friends..I suppose this is like an extreme example of that!?😕craziness

Please do a video on Carolyn Warmus “ fatal attraction trail”

I hear a story like this and think wow the planet I live on is so much more normal

Todd worked for his father's fencing company.... I've been watching too much true crime because I thought he was fencing stolen goods at first 😆🤣

I love your dry sense of humor.

thats why is so important to take anyones story or stories, just as that ... a story. if you can not verify it, leave it be just a story. people are full of it, so take great care

Maybe I just didn't notice on time but congrats on 1 million!

Great humor!

Could you look into Jane Bashara's murder?

8:48 'Honey, 👰, I conspired to murder you on your business trip, but its okay as you cancelled your trip' He dodged a bullet literally 💀 Lol 😆 🤣

Woo hoo! New video!!

I'm from Ireland, oh no do I have to start worrying about Snippers from US!!!. As always brilliant analysis. I just don't know how you manage to be on point each and every time.

"Hello this is Dr. Grande" is better than my daily Venti Blonde with extra sugar.

Please cover the Sam Sheppard case?

I am so happy to be able to watch Dr. Grande’s videos the minute they are uploaded!💕

Nice Surprise. 👌

“He was always taking chances and looking for excitement and adventure”; cue STEPPENWOLFS “Born to be Wild” 😂🤣😂.

It’s possible under may have come up. Lol. Awesome job!!!!!

Could you do a video on Seung Hui Cho please

If I got a wax sealed envelope I'd assume it was my admissions letter to Hogwarts, which is still more believable than the guy thinking he was being invited into a secret organization 😂

THERE NEEDS TO BE A MOVIE ABOUT THIS! 😅

I've lived here in Sacramento since 1985, this must have really been a 'Secret' deal, I never heard of it...but we sure have had a bunch of other serial killers running around. Worse than this crew...one of them, Richard Chase...was smart enough to know that a locked door meant he wasn't welcome....at that moment...so he would just come by later. I'm a little surprised Dr. Grande hasn't talked about any of them, that I know of. There were some really twisted crimes.

I don't meet many other Todd's; it makes sense one of them would be a pretend-assassin murderer.

Heyyy Dr. Grande❣️ You're a breath of fresh air & I appreciate it. My kiddos are all where they're supposed to be 🤗 I hope you have a great weekend Dr❣️

Someone brought a first-aid kit along for a murder. It would be interesting to know the reason.

Can you do Ariel Robinson the Food Network Star who murdered her adopted child next?

First aid kit? I died!

Dr. Grande please please please watch “Wild Wild Country” docuseries on Netflix and make a video about Ma Anand Sheela. I would love to hear your analysis and thoughts on her and the “cult”. Was is truly a cult a cult in your opinion?

Amazing that there are so many people with such terrible judgement.

There are two Todds in this video and I like one a whole lot better than the other-smarter is an understatement and a ton better looking.

Maybe Portland, OR should consider changing it’s slogan - Keep Portland Weird. Todd certainly took it to heart. Full disclosure - I live in a town who’s slogan is We Are All Here Because We Are Not All There. Enough said.

There were so many people involved in this I had to watch this twice and take notes. K.I.S.S. or risk exposure.

"Every day people get murder-free divorces" - - that is a sentence that I've not heard before.

how do you no complete basic training and become corporal?

I was best friends with Carole in high school. My dad was a psychotherapist and pegged Todd as a sociopath within 5 minutes of meeting him at the Galleria in Portland in 1986 or so. Some day I might write up that part of the tragedy. Todd was cheating on Carole with Lynn back then and they almost broke up.

That lock is dead !!! I'm an assassin not a lock-doctor. Lol THANKS for the smile Dr Grande, per usual. ✌

Todd, Carole, Lynn, Dean, Norman an the Irish Republican Army…I had to listen to this four times until I could figure out what was going on! Update. I still confused after listening four times. I’ll try again tomorrow

A couple important aspects in this. Todd’s wife was pregnant at the time of her murder and Lynn had 2 kids both extremely young and with dean at that time.

... and why hasn't this been made into a movie?
