Thank you for calling out the dog as the real hero, Dr. Grande. ❤

[@pattih7]

Yes, and as they gathered, the dog was summons last minute; an afterthought. Bothered me, as well! It also bothered me that they all seemed to have been deer hunting, and wanted a picture of their conquest; as if Danelo were an animal they had bagged. I know he is a dangerous criminal, but he’s still human. The victims families must have been livid, when they were watching this! Terribly distasteful and disrespectful to everyone, in my thoughts. Thanks for covering this. I would like to hear your thoughts on Cavellconte’s History and how that may have influenced his connections, actions and crimes. Thank you, Dr. Grande!

I think a situation like this is what police officers live for and that’s why they took a photograph. When 99% of their job is paperwork & belligerent drunks, chasing an escaped murderer that is giving them a good run for their (taxpayer’s) money is a happy relief.

[@bellacucina3209]

I think it was the dog who had a good run and quickly captured the suspect while risking getting shot.

[@arinerm1331]

You may be correct about the officers' motivation for the photograph, Linda; but taking a victory lap for capturing a fugitive after nearly **two weeks,** when they had every technological and firepower advantage is a bit like celebrating winning a fight against an unarmed fifth-grader.

If I learned anything about this it is how many people think leaving keys in cars and doors unlocked some kind of normal behavior. I grew up in a rural low crime area, but my parents raised me to always lock your doors and keep your possessions safe. It blows my mind that ppl who live in a suburban environment just… leave things unlocked and then act affronted when you suggest this goes against common sense.

[@evelynwaugh4053]

And they did this knowing a double murderer was hiding nearby, desperate for any resource that would aid his escape. Amazing.

[@genek8630]

I lived in the city before I moved to Chester County. You would never leave a door unlocked or leave your keys in your vehicle unless you wanted to become a victim. When I moved out here, my neighbor two houses away left their doors unlocked; while they were sleeping, some kids came in and walked around down stairs and stole a couple things, they then went down the road from me a couple more houses, just walked in took cars keys that were sitting on the kitchen table and took the homeowners car for a joyride and wrecked the car less than a mile down the road. There are people out there who believe bad things only happen to other people and live in a false sense of complacency.

[@EXROBOWIDOW]

My husband and I both grew up in communities near Los Angeles. After we got married, I insisted that he lock our doors-- even when we were home. The street he grew up on was a close knit community. Everyone knew everyone else. The lady across the street was perpetually watching everyone, so much so that my husband's family was proud of the fact that they got a new toilet and managed to conceal this fact from her. Anyway, my husband did not understand why I insisted on locking the doors all the time. In my neighborhood just a couple miles from his, we were not as close knit. One time when my mom and sister went out for a bit and left the front screen unlocked while I stayed home alone, a drunk guy just walked right in. Good thing I knew that the girl next door was having a party involving a keg, and that our houses looked so similar that even sober people could confuse them. All I had to do was tell him the party was next door, and he left our house to go return to the party. That was the only time I remember my mom leaving the screen unlocked, because it's usually safer to keep things locked.

[@callaflower221]

@@genek8630 you got that right. My parents sold my childhood home to my cousin and her husband. One of the first nights they moved in they were awoken to find a stranger in the house because the door was unlocked. It can happen anywhere.

[@gabrieleghut1344]

I stayed with my in laws for some weeks in a farmhouse 80 miles from Harrisburg, and the first thing I noticed was the unlocked doors even at night. The second thing was the rifle standing openly in the kitchen with the bullets in the drawer beside the rifle. I ask my father in law about this and he answered that no stranger would get lost in this parts. I told him that you never know who his wandering around and even can get shot with your own rifle while you are sleeping. I was 19 at the time and grew up in a town with 70000 citizens in Germany. We never locked our door but we also have different doors in Germany. You need a key to get in. It is called a safety lock.

I think law enforcement did an awesome job. They had things going against them. 1. Stolen vehicle 2. The convict is actually very small and this can help him hide. 3. He's familiar with woods. 4. I think it's difficult when you have hundreds of police officers with news media following your every move to keep a low profile. And surprise is everything 5. It was hard to use thermo detecting because of tree coverage. 6. The rain I'm sure stopped the easy tracking by dogs, etc, too 7. Dogs are better to use when capturing a convict. It's safer for all. Overall I'm 💯 sure it's a lot harder than it looks to catch a physically fit ex con. Had to share per your invitation for interesting convos. 😊

He looked so different after he shaved. So odd.

[@Kat-tr2ig]

So, a 5 ft tall mini man with no equipment or supplies was able to evade 500 cops for 2 weeks and was caught by a freaking dog? Dude, I'd be too embarrassed to take a picture, the shame of being outsmarted by squirrel Houdini.

[@sphinxkat]

🤣 thank God the dog didn't get hurt

[@CarolLustgarten]

Love your description analysis and insight. Especially the line about the dog 🐶 doing the work. What a hero he or she is. Should get a medal or extra 🍖 bones. Maybe some extra vacation days. But you are right leaving keys in the van. Poor judgment. And garage door open with a weapon inside. Oh my God. Sounds like the deep south. Yikes. That prisoner needs to he in solitary.

[@StAlphonsusHasAPosse]

Hey! Nobody in the deep South keeps our guns in the garage. They are inside by our beds where they belong! 😮😅

[@dianemorton2222]

If I were one of the policemen I would want a photo too. I am so proud of the police dog. The dog is so smart. I find this story interesting. They need to secure this prison better. The case has a good ending.

[@aguillen300]

The picture they took with the suspect reminds me of a hunter taking a picture with the animal they just caught. I'm ok with it.

My daughter works at Longwood Gardens and was there when they evacuated the place, He was captured not far from where I live. So scary. I’m glad it’s over. I watch almost all your videos-you do a great analysis and I get a kick out of your sense of humor

[@inbornwanderlust1076]

Hi Dr G! Thank you!! I also live right in the middle of this off of rt 100. I believe he did know what he was doing and was very interested in creating distance for himself. There's something they really haven't talked about in the media coverage. The enterance to the PA Turnpike is right here literally on Rt 100 about 4-5 miles south of where he was captured. Billing for the turnpike is now done digitally via license plate photos and ez pass transponders, so there are no human toll collectors any longer and you wouldn't be noticed getting on the turnpike. Along that section of 100 there are concrete barriers in the center which forces you to continue in the direction you're traveling for a little while past the interchange. If you were planning to get on the turnpike and changed your mind, maybe because your stolen van was out of gas, where he ditched the van is the first semi-rural spot you would come to where you would have a good chance to hide a van and yourself. This is the final perimeter they set up after the van was reported stolen in the morning and found behind the barn up here. This is the one they finally caught him in. He was still hanging around right on Rt 100 and if had the luck and opportunity to get into another vehicle coule have been on the turnpike in 5 mins. If you study some maps, I think you'd find this very interesting. It was very unfortunate luck for him that the van he was able to steal just happened to be low on fuel. Had it not been, I'm certain another state would be taking grandstanding photo ops of their capture of him instead if they ever found him.

[@kristentrep5038]

I love how dr Grande points out the obvious, that just isn’t obvious to law enforcement and the general population! They really should’ve taken a pic of that pup!

[@poppysydney3564]

I think it's ashame those people are criticised for a photo after 2 weeks of very tiring work. Let's all appreciate he was captured without incident and the forces did a good job!

[@annalisegiovanni7032]

Hello Dr. Grande🥰 Thank you for the new video & thank you so much for choosing this case in particular to cover right now. This is a completely shocking situation. The sequences of events that unfolded were completely mind warping! I'm excited to hear every single thing you have to say about this. Thanks again, Dr. Grande❤

[@MasterMalrubius]

Entered the US illegally? That’s impossible.

[@stephendacey8761]

At least you had the guts to admit how bad it's gotten at our borders. Millions of illegals are coming to America, and nobody is doing anything about it. Only areas close to the borders are concerned. These illegals are given money and transportation to live anywhere in the United States. Many are felons. There is already too many illegals in the United States now, but in the coming years it will get much worse. It's bad enough now.

From start to finish, this debacle showed how assinine law enforcement was. That assembling to take a group photo was ridiculous and the only one who can wear a merit badge for capturing a killer is Officer K9 Good Doggoe.

[@ecstatickitten2811]

I live in Chester County, and I was really terrified of this monster. On Sunday morning, my mom told me not to go outside because Cavalcante was in the town we live in. He was seen at the Wawa (convenience store/gas station) that day, and I live within walking distance from there. Thank God he is going to spend life in prison. Thank you, Dr. Grande for this excellent analysis. 🙂

[@MeganVictoriaKearns]

Glad you're okay. And so is everyone in your area. Sounds like this guy is total scum. He wouldn't hesitate to kill again if he needed to in order to evade capture. Too bad he didn't try to raise that stolen gun at Officer Good Boy 🦮🏅 or a human PA police officer. That's a surefire way to induce "lights out" permanently. *The dog's name, I have recently found out, is "Yoda". Thanks Yoda! Good Boy! You better get extra treats everyday, forever!

I cant imagine actually living right there. I live just a bit north of pottstown and it was still pretty unnerving. I have a cousin and know a few people who live in the pretty immediate area of where he was caught. And my dumb self had an interview for an overnight job in that area on Monday and was there for paperwork today, just about an hour and a half after he was caight.

Oh Dr. Grande. I ALWAYS look forward to your videos and your sarcasm warms my soul. Saying since the dog found him, only the dog should get photographed. Thank you for this much-needed laugh. And in case you didn't know, his mother said he was better off dead than going to prison and believes the murder he committed against his ex was due to him being "cornered". Clearly, he didn't agree with his mommy and surrendered. Clearly he wants to continue breathing.

This was so scary. He was caught about 20 minutes from my house which just makes it that much more real. All of us were on HIGH ALERT. They should have let that dog tear him apart. I can’t stop thinking about that poor woman dying just KNOWING that her babies were watching and having no idea what was going to happen to them.

In bushes by my Mother's house. My Mom heard put your hands up and don't move. My son endured another incident like this many years later but he is now fine and can cycle 500 miles in a week.

I am so happy he is in prison here. If he killed his girlfriend in Brazil he would not spent no even 20 years in prison. Maximum there since 2019, 40 years, before it was 30. With that said, with good behavior he would be out on parole after maybe 8 or 12. So yes, justice in Brazil sucks.
