🤘🏼

I would love to know where Chase Merritt was the day Summer "made the searches for Mexico and children's passports". I believe this was extremely premeditated by CM.

😂😂

😅😂😅😊

@@goldiebelle agreed

Can you verify if that casino had an ATM fee? I'd like to avoid it in the future.

Casinos and gambling truly are the devil's playground.

Yeah! Another convert!

just goes to show a history of non violent offenses isn't an indicator of how violent someone is. most felons should be executed

I remember this lady made a KZfaq video WHY I UNSUBSCRIBED FROM DR GRANDE well thanks to her video I watch every single video of his I support his channel and buying his book 🙌 he is the best

Amen 💯 Loulabelle!! We have another fellow "Grande Groupie"! 😆 Lol If Loulabelle is your real name, that's a very pretty and unique name btw. Thanks for this great comment that I think we can all agree with! ✌️💖🤗

@@Sunchild_26 That's AWESOME!! I love that little story- And it makes me think as I often do that "haters" who make a big fuss over something like this, usually just end up bringing even MORE attention to the person or thing they are attacking, and actually end up helping ADD to the person's success in the end! I guess that's called Karma! Thanks for sharing this with us love. ✌️💖🤗

Yes, and sometimes those very agreeable people reach a point where they’ve had enough and lash out.

@@annal7364 Your so right Anna .I saw this with one of my friend.

I agree completely, I'm a highly agreeable person- more accurately to the point of being a "Pushover" even in many situations, though I've tried to get better. When you are like this, you just be generous and try to do or give anything anyone asks, bc in your mind, you think they will feel the same way about it that you would in their place- I.E. be grateful, try to have integrity and repay you if that's the agreement. I myself have felt shocked a few times at just how much of a User some people can be without giving thought to others or caring what they take or who they hurt. I even have a brother like this sadly, he just kinda blows through person after person, conning in ways he can and being manipulative, and he's been able to get a whole lot out of a whole lot of people this way. But murdering innocent people, Esp CHILDREN with a SLEDGEHAMMER?? This guy takes that behavior to a totally different stomach churning level that just blows the mind! Bludgeoning Babies to death and throwing them away in the desert like trash- I'll just NEVER understand certain humans AT ALL!! I ALWAYS love your comments Rejane, and always agree with them- you really add a LOT to the comment section, so keep em coming!! And I agree, I REALLY want to hear Dr. Grande's latest take on the latest from the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard trial! I'm not watching it and mostly rely on him for updates, but might look up the latest. Thanks for the great comment sweets, have a great night!! ✌️💖🤗

@@shayb413 Thank so much Shay!😊

I’m also waiting for Dr. Grande’s update on AH’s testimony. Can’t wait for his analysis. 🤞

This comment deserves many thumbs up! 👍🏽 Good luck on your finals

Indeed! Best of luck!

I haven’t studied but I always pass anyways

So jealous! There is one in each class like that! The rest of us swat the books!

Her being murdered doesn't mean she can't have been an unpleasant cretin.

I 100% agree. She is here to defend herself. She was a victim. I feel terrible for her as a mother myself

You are correct. It's a character assassination of Summer from Dr. Grande and it makes no sense. There's no proof that she was any of the things Grande calls her, it's almost pure conjecture. I knew of the several identities she had, in her youth. Summer hated Chase, with good reason. He was a lying thief stealing from her family. If Joseph wouldn't take the lead, she would. At the advising of his accountant, Joseph met Chase at the fast food restaurant and lowered the boom on him. That was the beginning of the end.

Why does the car being at the border mean something terrible had happened?

Great insight- your comments are always SO great Anna- either witty and HILARIOUS, or extremely insightful. It's clear you are a highly intelligent person with a GREAT sense of humor who seems to know how to enjoy life! Thanks for the great comments and thoughts you always add here! ✌️💖🤗

@@shayb413 Thank you for your extremely generous words, Shay! You seem to be such a kind, loving person and must bring lots of joy to those around you! Are you a somewhat new subscriber? I just started noticing your comments pop up more frequently. I often wish I could meet some of you. I wonder if people on here are what I picture based on their comments; the curiosity kills me sometimes! 😛

@@annal7364 Yeah, I think I stumbled across Dr. Grande's videos just a couple months ago- maybe 3 months ago- I never watched KZfaq much except for my daily news clip, but watched a Dr. Grande video and loved it! Since then I've watched almost all his new videos coming out each day, and gone back and watched several older ones. I even joined his Patreon bc I enjoy his videos so much. I don't even comment in/on any other KZfaq channel, but I love the people here, and the "regulars" I see with funny or thoughtful comments! A few or several people who comment often seem so relatable and thoughtful and funny, and your comments ALWAYS grab my attention for those reasons! I too wish we could all meet in person- it would be fun to do a book club type thing but just get together, hang out, discuss Dr. Grande videos a bit and other topics, would be the best time! But at least we have a digital platform since that isn't really possible I guess. Not the same, but still something! 💖🤗

@@shayb413 I don’t comment on other channels either. In fact quite a few people on here have said the same thing, but Dr. G does tell us to put any opinions and thoughts in the comment section, so I guess you could say we’re all just following the doctor’s orders!

@@annal7364 Haha, just following Doctor's orders, LOVE that!! 😆 I work from home and have 2 busy teenagers, so the past year or so I haven't gotten out much or had many people to talk to, not enough human interaction I guess Lol, so sometimes I'm MUCH too long-winded in the comment section! Trying to learn to reign it in a bit, but I really enjoy reading people's thoughts and opinions, even if they're different than mine! Makes me miss like college study groups and things like that almost sometimes! Well keep the great comments coming love, and I'm sure I'll see ya here many times in the future. ✌️💖🤗

ooooou sounds interesting!!! I want it too!

I third this!

@@thedollbabys1073 We cannibalize the tragedies of others dont we? All for a momentary rush of dopamine that will be forgotten within the next 2 videos. Have you ever heard that saying " there is something about you I dont like about me"? Vultures of tragedy parceling out bits of peoples lives and horror all to make ourselves feel more alive in the moment.

@@novac1990 What a weird comment.

@@novac1990 why you watching this channel then

I agree. The only real evidence that she had “anger issues” was somebody looked up a homeopathic remedy for anger management on their computer. That fit in nicely when Chase was spreading those wild stories later on to incriminate her. Victim-blaming is disgusting and I hate to see Grande perpetuate it.

It seemed like Summer was head of the household 🌷

No duh 😂

Hindsight bias. They didn't do any forensics cos at that point they didn't know there was a crime.

​@@eadweard. I definitely 2nd that emotion 🌷

That's the guy who disappeared with the video still taping. It was suspected that he tried to flee because his life and family was threatened. I'm not sure if it's true or not but I heard about it somewhere else.

Sure, but only a really lazy detective. In every case a disappearance and murder - _you look for who benefits._ When somebody has motive, means, opportunity, a rap sheet, oh, and no alibi...That's your man. You just follow the money. The police screwed this up beyond repair. All the evidence have been taken care of. We members of society got lucky - because they're investigation was botched. I hope this incident is used as a teaching tool today on how not to do police work.

I thought the same thing until they were found dead. I was convinced they fled to Mexico!

@@crazy_old_bat me2

IT WASNT THEM!!!

Love the comment. .I have replied to your questions. 😜❤💙

Why did the cops not have the "murder weapon" DNA tested?????? Does Dr. G have the answer to this question? Too many unanswered questions in this case. And Dr G just believes everything he hears - if you believe all you hear you would eat all you see. People tell lies - especially if they have something to hide

True. Rarely turns out ok

It is unusual & I’m having hard time believing anyone could control four people with a sledgehammer. A gun, sure. But a sledgehammer?

I thought the same thing. Maybe Joseph met him somewhere else, was killed there, then Chase drove Joe's vehicle to the house. Somehow abducted the mother and kids, and killed them elsewhere.

This was explained in the video. By the time they knew it was a crime the house had been redecorated.

@@Jen-X333 He had a hammer. But we have no reason to think he _only_ had a hammer.

@@eadweard. Yes, it was mentioned that a room was repainted, but the police never did any forensic analysis, so who knows. No matter where it was done, this was horrific.

I remember this tragedy, it wasn't gang related he was just envious of his brother A brother that was attempting to help him seeing as he was recently released from prison. He felt the family abandoned him during his incarceration. The saddest part was when his mom asked him why did he kill the kids the babies? He whispered "they saw me".

Nothing to do with gangs. The murderer tried to blame murders on gangs. Not true.

This was so tragic, I saw a program on it, "The first 48" I believe. Just HORRIFIC!

He listed a great load of evidence for why she was nasty cretin.

@@eadweard. he said their relatives said she was controlling which is debatable. I don't see how that makes her a liar and he didn't give examples unless I missed it.

@@MelancholyArmy He mentioned their email exchanges, amongst other things, which showed she was aggressive and nasty while he was passive.

@@eadweard. ah OK I see. I had to rewatch. Missed that part

The “cretin” was the killer who brutally murdered this family. The “evidence” that Summer was angry or abusive and that she was poisoning her husband was a bunch of hearsay kicked up almost entirely by her killer. Even the fact that she had used other names and kept her age a secret isn’t all that unheard of by people wishing to make fresh starts in life; she could easily have been hiding from a former abuser as opposed to a life of crime. That could have explained the possessiveness she had when it came to her husband- all his family ever acknowledged about her was that she might have been possessive of Joe, not the anger issues. His father even stated he was sure she loved his son. Grande has a penchant for implying blame to women victims for their own deaths, usually due to some stereotype character flaws like jealousy or sneakiness. This wife and mother did not deserve her fate any more than her weak-chinned Mr. Nice-guy husband did. If she was warning Joe not to trust and loan $ to Merritt any more (and who could blame her), the man that was to smash in her children’s heads in with a sledge hammer, that is not what caused them to be killed. A monster like that will find a way sooner or later. The asshole cold-bloodedly slaughtered the family, then stole from, gambled, and slandered the wife’s name before getting finally found out.

I don't think Dr Grande is open-minded enough to give an opinion, he appears to be gullible, like no matter what anyone said he would believe- no questions asked. His is a subjective opinion, nothing more

Oh! I see what you did there 😆

Clever, aye!

GREAT wordplay girl!! 💖

CT - Top of the day to you!🍀

@@bthomson Thank you, same to you. 🎋🎋🎋🎋🎋

I agree with everything in your comment completely! Thank you for adding your thoughts, your comments ALWAYS add a lot of value to the conversation! Did you ever tell me where you're from Cotton Tails? I was just curious, with the comment and 4 leaf clovers I was wondering if Ireland maybe? Or maybe it was just a nice phrase that I know can be used many places, was just curious. ✌️💖🤗

@@shayb413 Shay , thank you. I come from Australia , I'm an registered nurse, my husband is a Doctor in emergency department. My name is Julianne.😜❤💙👋

To many unanswered questions - why did "Summer" have so many aliases? Did someone from her past catch up with her/ Was it the brothers truck that left the house, and not Chase's truck?

That is what I heard. Joseph had mentioned to someone that the quality of Chase's work was substandard and he was considering letting him go. Not sure when Chase started printing off the cheques, but he did owe Joseph a lot of money. I know he printed off a couple of cheques immediately after the family disappeared. I wonder if he had done the research on their computer regarding Mexico?? That would mean he had planned this crime, as it was two weeks before they disappeared. I still think if he had murdered them all in one room, that there would be evidence - painting the walls will not cover all blood splatter - what about the floor. Police have lifted flooring before and found stains in the wooden floorboards.

@@kenn1936 Friends and family said that Summer hated Mexico. She felt Mexico and would take her children there. Chase is believed to have entered the Google searches.

Her being murdered doesn't mean she wasn't a nasty cretin.

Just wondering how were these derogatory things about Summer discovered, family, friends? I never heard this before, but I didn’t watch any tv shows about this case. Still she did not deserve to be brutally murdered even if she was not a nice person and certainly no reason to brutally murder the whole family. The focus should be on Chase and the fact that he is just an evil person.

@@lynxcatt3845 The evidence was mentioned in the video. It involved their email exchanges, amongst other things, which showed she was aggressive and nasty while he was passive. Acknowledging she was unpleasant isn't remotely close to saying she deserved to be killed. To think so would be moral feeble-mindedness.

"I see you boy!"- LOVE THIS!! 😁 Thanks for making me smile!

I remember Joseph's mother said in a documentary that he would never just disappear from his eldest child's life. They were like soul mates. Not unless something very terrible happened.

Yeah, it’s sickening blaming whatever shortcomings Summer may or may not have had for a dirtbag bludgeoning in her and her two babies’ heads. The “she made me do it” defense.

Exactly!

Zena - How many innocent children have to be killed just so as not to be witnesses? Really distressing!😓

@@bthomson Agreed 👍

@@bthomson The number of children, I've seen and looked after physical and sexual abuse, would make you cry .

BTW, have seen my obstetrician, and the head is in the birth canal, I feel it will come early. 😜❤💙

@@cottontails9003 Oooh sounds like it. You able to rest enough or still working?💛💟💛🙌💐🍏🥕

@@eadweard. God knows the truth, and so does the murderer and the victim. The killer sealed their fate.
