“Every form of addiction is bad, no matter whether the narcotic be alcohol, morphine or idealism.” ― Carl Gustav Jung

Dr Grande will never run out of cases to analyze because the world will not run out of disturbed folks. There's always something to learn I must say. :)

Somewhat good analysis, I’m not a Doctor but I knew Andrew pretty well, Jeff Trail and Andrew’s mother Mary for a few years. I think most people don’t get how gregarious, often charming and overtly outgoing - almost raucous, he was. His laugh was legendary and distinctive - something few documentaries or fictionalized docudramas ever have portrayed. He was also almost strangely generous, he gifted me a portable CD player out of his trunk one night upon finding out it was my birthday and a very expensive architectural coffee table book for a housewarming gift (not signed, Damn!) both he and Jeff were at my housewarming party. He absolutely was a serial liar, but if you weren’t personally invested into whatever the lie was they mostly manifested themselves as quirky, amusing stories, “I can’t tell you how many parties in Rancho Sante Fe where Herb Ritts was attending with hot models I almost missed”... The thing was he was so damn smart that he would inject more than a few bits of accuracy or focused information about whatever the lie was that it always seemed at least, maybe plausible. Again, if you weren’t invested into whatever that lie was it was mostly no harm no foul. Predictably now, we did not know him by his real last name of Cunanan until the murders, he was DaSilva to us, of a Brazilian Jewish heritage lol. His wit, charm and intelligence took him up to a certain social level for a while, able to hold court with both gogo boys and PHD professors. I remember having a somewhat deep conversation about a contemporary English architect that few people not in the profession would know one night in a dance club, that was Andrew, he knew at least a little about EVERYTHING and sometimes much more. He was canny about picking and choosing tidbits of information that might prove beneficial or attractive in conversations with wealthy benefactors. He must have gained those 30 pounds fast because I saw him last in late March or early April and he wasn’t pudgy then. It was sad and shocking the turn of events, especially the brutal murder of his former good friend Jeff, a solid great guy, retired Naval officer, who was well liked and respected and I always enjoyed his humble, friendly midwestern personality. For more than a few days we were all pretty terrified he would come back here, if he did that to Jeff he could do that to anybody he knew. The whole thing is one of the weirdest connections to infamy I have ever experienced in my life. I remember on the morning of Versace’s murder completely joking with another guy who also knew him with an offhand comment that Andrew probably did it - this is when his whereabouts were still completely unknown - and how within a couple of hours it totally freaked us out when the news came out who the suspect was.

I knew Jeff Trail for 10 years... from his days at the Naval Academy to when he was murdered. He was the sweetest, nicest guy I’ve ever known in my life. His only flaw was that he felt sorry for Andrew, and couldn’t bring himself to use some tough love and cut him out of his life. I loved Jeff very much, and I still do. I always will 😢

One Dr. Grande video a day keeps the psychopaths away.

This is why you don’t let your kids think they’re so special that the rules don’t apply to them

The "American Crime Story" season about this (aka "assassination of gianni versace") is really good. The actor who portrays Cunanan captures the unstable killer mannerisms amazingly well. It is chilling.

I'm going to be so sad when the day comes when Dr. Grande takes a day off!!!

I'd forgotten this one, he seemed to be narcissistic to me. It was such a shame to lose Versace this way, he appeared to have been a peaceful and loving man. Excellent analysis, thanks for caring and sharing your professional insight.

I always thought of Cunanan as a spree killer, not so much as a serial killer.

I wrote a paper on him in my last year of my Masters degree in Forensic Psychology and Applied Behavior.. I'm really excited to hear what you say also. You teach me a lot so I enjoy your videos..

I have a friend whose son was murdered in the mid-90’s in San Diego, and the case was never solved. He was brutally beaten to death in his home. It’s been suspected that Andrew Cunanan was the killer but he was never officially linked to the case.

I watched the series on Netflix called “ the assassatjon of Versace” highly recommended.

He went to The Bishop's School in La Jolla, Ca. I used to photograph graves for relatives at Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery. By happenstance, I passed by his tomb in the Mausoleum. He is buried with his mother.

You spoil us❣️ hope you're having a great day 💕

I guess having a high IQ didn't keep him from being a total wreck of a human being.

Love the channel Doctor: Would love to see a video on: Chris Benoit Tony Soprano Budd Dwyer L.Ron Hubbard

I agree that he qualifies technically as a serial killer but to me he fits more in the category of a spree killer. Thank you for all your hard work. I look forward to your videos.

Hello Dr. Grande, thank you for all the effort you put into these videos. As a practicing counselling educator, you must sacrifice much of your spare time creating great quality vids (the quantity of which is equally impressive). This does not go unnoticed. In fact, aspiring student counsellors like myself are recommending your channel to peers, and I have even seen a more established "veteran" youtuber recommend your channel to his followers. May you keep growing in popularity, I look forward to viewing more of your content.

I have been wanting you to do an analysis or him for soo long! I always found Andrew Cunanan fascinating

Excellent analysis as always! I knew about Andrew Cunanan because of Versace’s death but I didn’t really read much or watch the news about it. Last year, I watched The Assassination of Gianni Versace on Netflix and I was so freaked out by AC. To go from pathological liar to killing spree is quite the leap. That show was so well done I highly recommend it. It paid tribute to the victims who are typically forgotten in these cases.

I think his narcissism caused him to think he was entitled to the best life he could live, yet he couldn’t do it on his own. He might have killed each man out of rejection, feeling entitled to their belongings, or just pure jealousy of their success. I think he killed Versace because he was very famous and a huge success in the fashion industry. Cunanan wanted to take him out of his realms, which also devastated many peoples lives. A pure evil narcissist! Just my opinion. 🥰🍂🍁🌾🎃🌻

Cunanan wasn’t considered a “serial killer” in the classic sense and fit much more so into the “spree killer” category. When his narcissistic delusions of grandeur came crashing down (i.e., when the world didn’t unfold before him in the way he wanted it to), and thinking himself _entitled,_ he found himself among the common - broke, uneducated or trained, unrecognized, etc. With this realization, he snapped and because of his Axis-ll characteristics (blaming the world, not himself, etc.), he decided to punish that world and to leave his notorious mark. In short, he was a under-matured narcissistic loser. Note: I believe he did meet Gianni Versace at a party on one occasion prior to his murdering of him and the party might have been at (one of) Versace’s homes.

2...Yeah, Dr. Grande's videos are a daily highlight.

I’d *highly* recommend watching The *Assassination of Gianni Versace* on Netflix if you’re interested in this case. It’s a hell of a rollercoaster ride. 10/10

Can you do Jim Carrey thinking that he’s Andy Kaufman in “Jim and Andy: The Great Beyond” Love your videos!

Thank you for this analysis, Dr. Grande! I appreciate you so much for seeing my request and coming through with gold!

Thank you for covering this case, Dr. Grande. Excellent job, as always.

Yay, Dr. Grande's videos always come on when I'm driving home or making dinner. A fine, educational and entertaining accompaniment to either.

Thank you for granting my request with this feature, Dr. Grande! Enjoyed it a lot :-)

Dr Grande your analysis on this man was brilliant You really know how too analyse these people so well Thanks Dr Grande can't wait to hear your next topic you're the best

As always, thank you Dr. Grande for your articulate and thoughtful analysis of this case. Your conclusions deepened my understanding of all the different aspects of this case, especially the motive. Appreciate the many, many hours you invest in this quality content!

this case is one of the most out-there cases i've heard of. i've watched many docuseries about him.... there's so much to get into, i can't wait to see your views on it all! thank you as always, have a nice day

Dr. Grande is excellent at pulling out the relevant facts and getting to the crux of the matter.

When I watched the TCS on this it said he had bumped shoulders with Versace out socially. He was completely in awe of him & his ability to light up any room but Versace never really managed to notice him. From what the friends of Giovanni Versace were saying it was almost like one of those “If I can’t be you then you can’t either” crazy ass things!!

Thank you so very much, Dr. Grande!! Your videos always make my days more intelligent and your words inspire me to be more aware, as well as more compassionate. Plus your humor is so much like mine. I can't thank you enough for all your hard work and your continued efforts to bring more awareness to mental health. 💛

Thank-you Dr. Grande for your insightful analysis! How dangerous a tool the ego is in the wrong hands! The ego is necessary but it must be grounded in reality, not fantasy. Thank-you again!

I’m sure you will reach 500k soon and I would love to understand how you maintain such a hectic filming editing and research schedule as well as a family time and practice your professional endeavours as well. Love all your well thought out videos. Keep up the great work Doc 😇

I'm curious about his older siblings, what they were like and how they viewed Andrew. I don't understand why Andrew would have been given the master bedroom of the house?

You did it again Dr. Grande! Thank you for your videos! Can’t wait til you hit 1 million subscribers👏🏼

I’ve been waiting for you to do this person forever!! Thanks Dr Grande

Yes!! I left a comment a while ago, asking if you would be interested to look into this case and here it is!!🤗 Thank you for your insight, always so interesting! Love from Netherlands❣

I had a "friend" with similar traits as this one. They cant be trusted at all.

Dr Grande I feel that I have learned so much from watching your videos , it feels so good!! Thank you ❤️

Anytime I see your videos I'm instantly gonna thumbs up it even if I dont watch it until later. I really want to support you in making the world a better place to exist.

Great video, your analysis was excellent:)❤️ Dr. Grande, I hope all is well with you. I imagine that you must be extremely busy with your projects. I wish you success in everything you do.

Another great analysis. Keep em coming Dr. Grande 🖤🖤🖤

Appreciate your firearm knowledge and that you don’t recoil from expressing it.

I’m somewhat intrigued by the French statement. If it’s anything like the German equivalent, then that is very insightful. “After me the flood” is essentially a way to express maximum recklessness. The flood that’s being referred to is of biblical proportions. The idea behind the statement is that the speaker (or the one being referred to) realises that they don’t care if the world ends after they’re gone. They only worry about themselves in the here and now.

Please do Joan Crawford, don't make me get my wire hangers!

You're very entertaining and informative...definitely one of my favorite KZfaqrs

Thank you for another video! I admire you so much doc..you are my favorite😍💋 always learning from you. Human behavior fascinates me so I just love your channel!!!

'After me, the flood', or 'Apres moi le deluge' was originally attributed to King Louis XV of France and is thought to be a narcissistic allusion to the idea that after he was dead nothing else in the World would matter or that he was completely indifferent to a posthumous future i.e. he had no concerns about his the effect of his actions after he was no more. Seems rather appropriate when considering Cunanan's attitude to others. It is also the motto of 617 Squadron, Royal Air Force, known colloquially as the Dam Busters, which carried out the famous raid on German dams during WW2, thus flooding large areas of German industry.

As always, I found your presentation fascinating. Thank you .

Oh wow I had forgotten about this guy!!!!!

I was thinking to put a comment and suggest a video about Andrew Cunanan . Amazing . Thanks 😊

Great choice for a video! The FX series that was on really got me curious, and this is the perfect companion material to go with it.

Thank you for the excellent analysis. I followed this closely as it was happening, watched the Netflix documentary, etc...I wouldn’t know what to give him for a diagnosis, but narcissism seems to ring out so clearly throughout his life. Terrible horror for the lives of so many that he killed and ruined filling whatever it was that was driving him. Thanks again, Dr. Grande.

Dr grand I think you’re channel is great I think you are very intelligent and appreciate all the information and interesting knowledge you possess

Love your analysis on these people. Please keep up the good work .

I always enjoy your content, Dr. Grande! Would you consider doing an analysis on Paris Bennett? The case is so heartbreaking but I’d love to hear your insight. Keep up the great work!

I asked for this one a couple of months ago. Thanks, Dr. G!

This is such a crazy story. Thank you Dr. Grand!

Could you perhaps talk about the Stephen King book Rage and about how it inspired real life crime, I think it’s super strange.

Thank you for this very interesting video! Yours is my favourite KZfaq channel. 😊

That FX one season story abt the Assassination of Versace was intriguing and disturbing... Some people are like a pestilence...

Thank you Sir, I was waiting for this video about Cunanan. :)

love your videos. it’s so great to have insight on what may be going on with people......& the way you explain things makes it easy & fun to learn things like this. this is completely farfetched but i have been really into “Killing Stalking”, a popular psychological korean comic by Koogi. i would never expect you to go out of your way & read it & make an analysis of the main characters but i just wanted to mention it, if maybe you’d ever want to give a work of fiction like that a try (it’s very explicit). it would be really great to see your perspective on what the characters may be dealing with. ^^ hope all is well with you, Dr. Grande!

I always enjoy your videos Dr. Grande. You have excellent insight. Could you do a video on nurse Ratchet? Thank you. Have a great day!

I clicked so fast. Thank you!! I learnt a lot from you

Okay Dr. Grande, I've got to know how you acquired your in depth gun knowledge.

I am from Minnesota, and remember his case. Cunanon. Was called a spree killer. Not the typical serial killer, killing to feel superior to others. To quote Joe Biden, he was a bad dude. I suspect he was raised as the premadanna male, spoiled. When a parent or both parents spoil a kid, not disciplining them the kid starts to believe they are above others. Add to this the pain of the family break up and his dad's moral lapses in both his work life and his family. Cunanan never developed a carreer or went on to post high school education. He also seemed to get away with lesser crimes, selling drugs, prostitution. He may have murdered someone in California before coming to Minnesota. according to reports at the time.

Thank you for the video!

Hello Dr. Todd Grande !!! I love your videos ! Can you one day do a video on psychedelics (acid or mushrooms) and wether or not they have legitimate medical use ? That would be so cool :)

Awesome, the one I recommended!! Thanks doc!

I am late! Great topic, I watched everything about this case. 🧡

BRILLIANT WORK DR. !!!! So glad I found this, saved me time from researching the history of this Psycopath !!!

I really like how specific you are with the case facts, like the caliber and models of the firearms used to commit the crimes.

Dr. Grande nailed it, with a most logical conclusion.

Would love to hear Dr. Grande's analysis of the John List murders! Such an interesting individual!

Great analysis, doc! Have been curious to hear your opinion on this since season 2 of ACS

Another great video! Would you consider covering Intermittent Explosive Disorder? I haven't seen much information about it, I have a neighbor who suffers with it and want to learn more.

Wow. I am totally addicted to your videos Dr. Grande. I can't believe how you analyze these people with such detail. So many lives lost. I think Andrew Cunanan was a Narcissist to the highest degree. Then had a manic episode when he realized he was poor and decided to kill himself, but being a Gradiose Narc he wanted to be famous or infamous which he accomplished.

Versace was coming home from breakfast at News Cafe on Ocean Dr. when he was shot. He ate there often.

Love the channel Dr. Grande!! Could you analyze Shallon Lester in one of your upcoming videos?

He took the life he couldn't live IMO

Believe it or not, this is the funniest channel I watch! Always something that gets me laughing! LOL!

I would love to hear you do a run down of Dee Dee & Gypsy Rose Blanchard.

Great job, Dr. He was too bright to mis-diagnose that he may have had HIV. He knew how to research, and the symptoms are specific. Tks.

Can you do a video on the Gabriel Fernandez case? I really enjoy your videos!

Being a spoiled child is bad and good. My mother bought me and my brothers everything. We didn’t have to pay for anything but as the years go by we smarten up and have taken advantage of being spoiled by saving our money and things we couldn’t buy. Now, we’re hard working individuals that realize money can go at any time.

Thx Dr Grande your the best 💕🙏

Thankyou Dr. In addition to your well-rehearsed display of *firearm* knowledge, your well-rehearsed O.C.E.A.N explanation is rival only to your expert knowledge of narcissism, as well as to the profile of various serial killer types, which truly gives the expert explanation of these foul deeds. Thank you for your time and effort, Dr. Grande. One thing I missed was the *out-takes* in which I made up, one in which I noticed that his victims names started only with the *13th* to the *22nd* letter of the alphabet, *M,M,R,V,T* which would show either poor planning, poor long-term outlooks, and perhaps the effect of shaming by his mother.

I see you’re getting ever closer to 500k! 🥰 you deserve a very, VERY fancy cake 🙃

I always love these analysis from your videos, and so happy for the growth on this channel, would be interested in seeing your in depth analysis of Elliot Rodgers even though you already touched on incels his case always interested me. Thanks.

Hi dr Grande, I would like to suggest a video topic: the case of Lia Marie Johnson (what could be happening in a situation like that)

The phrase "After me, the deluge" ("Après moi, le déluge"), is famous phrase credited to King Louis XIV of France.

not so long ago I read about Gianni Versace. Didn't know so much about Andrew. So thanx.

Thank you for informing us ❤️

Exceedingly talkative and intelligent, an IQ that's 3 standard deviations above the mean, a fatty, an unfashionable dresser with bad hair...hang on, you're describing me, Dr Grande! Only difference is my IQ is 3 standard deviations BELOW the mean.
