I have bipolar 1 with phycosis. It is a constant struggle for me not to go to either extreme. What I have done to myself and others has caused me friends, family, and jobs. The history of drugs and alcohol running throughout my family tree. As well as bipolar. I've seen what happens when you mix this with abuse of either. So I've managed not to become reliant on either. In fact, I became so scared of myself that I ended up making the decision not to have kids, which was the one thing I've wanted since forever. So, while we might not be criminals, it's not quite an easy life. Especially if your condition is on the sever side. I do think that Taylor should not get off on insanity as she made the problem worse by getting on drugs.

Meth can definitely cause people to become violent. My husband and I had hired a painter to paint our house. He was really clean cut and friendly but both us of us just felt there was something “off” about him. Turns out he was a meth addict but had been in recovery for awhile. Well, a few years later he was arrested for a triple homicide. First, he murdered a woman and tried dismembering her body then dumped her in a pond. Then he killed two men because they knew he had killed the woman. He went on the run and was finally caught. As he was being led into the police station, a reporter asked him why he did it and he simply said “Meth”.

[@texasrefugee7888]

I agree totally! Tweakers are absolutely insane and they get worse the more and longer they do it. I lived in a small town in colorado Is kinda famous for tweekers. The cops busted this college boy for steroids in a neighboring city. The cops told him they would go easy on him and let him off if he would go be an informant undercover in my town. Well, he didn't last long. They figured him out real quick. And they found him up on a trail behind my house with his throat cut. My best friend from elementary school got on that was on it for years, went to prison over it and Then still did it when she was on parole. She had bullet holes in her car, she had some of her tweak friends dognap her pet for ransom. I would tell her your life is so out of control. You're going to get busted, what are you doing? She would say no, the cops love me😂 They get so delusional

The meth is different now than it was even a few years ago. I’ve never touched it, but I read an article in (I believe) the LA times about how the chemical makeup of the meth now isn’t actually meth anymore. It’s “super” meth. It induces a permanent psychosis and is even more deadly.

ah Dr. Grande, thank you for “crime was her game and business was schabooming.” I really needed that and I was counting on it when I came here. ☺️ Thank goodness for comic relief. edited to add: hoo-wee! Dr. Grande is on fire with the pun-slinging tonight! 🤣 I picture his wife cracking up in the background and he has to keep editing out her laughter. ☺️

[@mollyringwerm9224]

"getting drugs appeared to be the first order of Schabusiness" elicited a spontaneous cackle from me

[@PetalPalmer]

Thank you for covering this case, I was hoping to learn more about it but haven’t been able to look into it yet. What she did to Shad was absolutely deplorable and she needs to be held accountable for it.

[@AntyTiff]

She changed her name?! I had been thinking, “Poor girl, probably got made fun of all the time as a child.” Why would anyone change their name to Shabusiness? (No offense to anyone else out there who has that name.)

[@asquare9316]

apparently both she and her husband changed their last name to that

[@Jessica-uv9sp]

Meth head moment

[@ejaime9125]

Her husband's last name is Shabow. They later changed it to Shabusiness.

[@lamy8224]

First order of schabusiness...lol! I love your subtle roasts

[@susanmann5286]

I was acquainted with two people who murdered and dismembered someone. I knew the three of them. I once mentioned in a comment that Dr. Grande might want to cover this. When I heard this happened I became very physically ill. It took me a while to come to terms with it. It was impossible to comprehend what happened. Now, it seems I am hearing about it more and more. As a mother, I can't, (and don't want to) imagine what this woman felt like, finding her son's head.

[@simonw1313]

Seems you were just lucky to know so many dismemberers are they are not that common ... unless you watch a lot of crime porn.

[@MDWD]

What a very sick sick lady. She should never see the light of day. Txs Dr.Grande. Have a great weekend

[@phylly5576]

I appreciate your insights. I tried to watch this trial but could not. The heinous nature of the murder and her demeanor really was so upsetting to me. I can remember a time when we put the mentally ill in institutions to protect not only that person but to protect others. Final thought: Meth, not even once.

[@tlw842]

My father-in-law had bipolar. I would never risk turning my back on him. The man was capable of doing anything, despite being elderly. Sure a lot of bipolar people are harmless. But there some who have no inhibitions and are capable of doing anything when they are in a manic cycle. The odd thing is that my father-in-law (who is now long passed) could straighten up immediately if the police showed up when he was acting out.

[@ceilconstante640]

That's absolutely terrifying!

The horror of her crimes combined with the vast goldmine of puns encouraged by her last name is a precarious tightrope to walk, but god damn, it ain't gonna walk itself!

I don’t think she’s smirking I think she’s scrunching her face. She’s confused. Doesn’t matter. Never let her out!

Thank you, Dr. Grande. My condolences to his family.

If there’s ever a case you don’t understand no other video could ever explain it as efficient as dr grande

[@sharri115]

The defense mental health professional was next level! I would love a video just on her alone! “I don’t need to give fancy tests!” “That woman is psychotic!”

[@goldiesamarripa4824]

Her background was volatile and appears her mental illness is in full manifestation. I believe there is a fine line for a defendant to be considered for a mental institution or prison as a former parole officer.

[@rayross997]

Taylor should have minded her own Schabusiness. Have a great weekend Dr. Grande.

[@texasrefugee7888]

I think it was more methamphetamine and drug use than bipolar. I've said for years since watching my best friend go on that stuff to run screaming from tweakers. They'll do in their own mother.

[@LDiamondz]

Couldn't agree more. Anyone on meth can do these horrible things. She claimed she did 30 hits of meth. That'll do it!

[@noorrr877]

I briefly worked as a therapist in a jail and someone was booked for r*ping their own mother! Terrifying.

[@jrawsadam]

​@@noorrr877while on meth? Or were they sober and mentally deranged? So messed up either way. Just trying to see the connection to the original comment.

I hope shads mother can find peace. I can't imagine finding your son in that condition. A true nightmare.

Hopefully she won't lose her head over it.

Excellent analysis Dr Grande. Thanks for all of your research and consise delivery.

[@dianajane6185]

So good to hear your thoughts on this, Dr. Grande. Great analysis, and I do appreciate the little nuggets of wordplay. Thank you!

[@vaneast411]

Taylor showed disturbing signs of having enjoyed what she had done... very sad situation for Shad's mother and those that loved him...

I love your videos and commentary Dr. Grande!!

[@sarazink2237]

This is not a laughing matter in the slightest but I’m sorry I couldn’t help it every time you made a ‘Shabusiness’ reference it cracked me up🤣🥴 sometimes things are so tragic a lil lighthearted humor is refreshing! Prayers for the family.!🕊️

[@craigfinnegan8534]

Drug abuse as a mitigating factor for murder is like rage or greed as a mitigating factor for murder. People who buy into it need to look at their own mental health.

[@adnanaliable]

"getting drugs was the first thing in shabusiness" lol dr Grande you are so funny.

[@hetmanjz]

First *order* of schabusiness.

[@Hin_Håle]

The calm and collected execution of each one of those puns - like nobody's Schabusiness.

A side effect of Trazadone is hallucinations. I know this is true because it happened to me. I was prescribed it as a muscle relaxant. Add Trazadone to meth and what could that have done to her brain?

I watched the closing arguments and verdict watch live, I was thinking "it probably took the jurors longer to choose a foreperson than it did to come to a decision in this case."

[@Wisedogdaddy]

Dr. Grande, we enjoyed your objective perspective. I like your very dry humor. Thanks

[@Youtubereplies]

I’ve been waiting for your analysis of this.

[@mattsauter4178]

The thing that stood out about the police interview was that she said that she didn't think she was going to jail

[@jak3589]

Thank you your analysis on this was very good, it helped me understand her behavior better.

[@lauracampa1838]

This is Dr Grande’s most humorous episode yet!! 😂🤣😂

[@jennajewert]

She seems pretty antisocial. On a rampage or something. Total menace. She's absolutely responsible for her actions. What a dark situation.

[@milesbbop9563]

[@viviansytsui]

Ayyyy, she's back!! All up in our Schabusiness.

[@NigelJackson]

The moral of this grim crime...never mix Schapleasure with Schabusiness 😐

[@rosemariejanssen7790]

My mother Was diagnosed with manic depressive disorder back when I was a kid. Now it is called bipolar. My son was bipolar. They were never violent. They took medication for it. I had no idea about there being different types of Bipolar disorder. Being bipolar doesn’t mean you’re going to be evil! This woman is pure evil and a narcissist. Also voluntarily taking drugs, should not be a defense either. Thank you Dr Grande. I appreciate your take on these various court cases and I agree with you. I love your calm demeanor.

[@4and20blackbirds]

imagine being some random mom of 3 in Wisconsin and then you’re in a court room with people addressing a defendant named Ms. Schabusiness who decapitated your son. what the hell is even that

[@ferrreira]

I couldn't help but slap my knee every time Dr. Grande made a shabusiness pun 😂😂😂😂

[@ProofBeyond]

IMO she’s severely mentally ill, and the d..gs exacerbated that illness. In saying that, she doesn’t get a pass for the sick and twisted ish she did. She’s going to be exactly where she needs to be. Prisons provide more psych services and medications than what’s on offer to the public - and the public are paying for that!

[@finalflowerchild]

@Carlz75 You are so right! Why do people assume everyone has access to good mental health care? No, they don't. Why do people assume that there's medication for every mental health problem, and everyone will react to it the same, and it all works. Case closed.

[@TiffWaffles]

There's only one problem, I feel. Prisons do provide psych services and medications, but it is still up the person to decide whether they want those services and this woman won't do it. A judge can't order a prisoner to go on their meds any more than a parent can force their mentally ill child to take the very same meds. At least, that's what I've been told. It's true for the wider world, but I think it's also true in an American prison.

[@wordsleuth992]

Do they get psych services and meds prescribed in a prison?? i know they don’t get these services in Canada

According to trial testimony from one of the experts, she admitted " huffing nail polish remover regularly when she was 13. It's unlikely that was all she had been doing.

I have the same diagnosis as her but no drug use history. I think it's the drug use that's messed everything up for her and others.
