She listened, and then explained that his behavior was inappropriate, possessive, and could turn to stalking. She helped me so much. Thankfully, he did leave me alone after that, and instead I found and married a wonderful man who loves and respects me. A little help can go a long way.

    I think that is a valid point. In this case, her parents did realize that something was wrong and attempted to force the end of the relationship. Unfortunately this only resulted in a Romeo and Juliet scenario which inadvertently made the situation worse. One complication is that young love is often very emotionally chaotic. It is difficult to tell a relationship that will end in tears from one that will end in blood.

    For most people. Remember that some people who have mental illnesses can have mental breakdowns that really do impact their ability to function after a breakup. I say that as someone who is diagnosed with borderline personality disorder and who has to take absences from my job/fails courses when I go through breakups. So yes, it’s possible to get through them, but you know yourself best, and if you need help such as therapy or antidepressants to get through it, take the action steps to get the help you need! Not everyone can just get through it by trying not to think about it, so it’s a good idea to make a real plan for what you’ll need to get through it if it happens

I knew a lot of people that seemed far less affected than me, so I dont think it's all teens, but it was rough for me. It has gotten better over the years, but now I avoid and downplay all relationships like the plague to avoid myself becoming unstable and obsessive and falling apart. I do feel those experiences were damaging in the long term but there is more to life than romantic love.

    @@raylaughlan5324 All BPDs have been sensitised from an early age to anything they perceive as rejection. This feeds into their underlying, deep-seated, fear of abandonment. Sadly, unstable BPDs have been known to commit suicide and/or homicide when thus rejected. It's useless to try and convince them a break-up is survivable and its associated pain will diminish over time. When one's future time perspective is faulty, everything may appear as if here and now. Once a psychic introject or the object of adoration has fallen from its pedestal, all previous failures and disappointments return to haunt them. They may lack sufficient coping skills to protect their fragile ego from unrelenting attacks on already shaky self-esteem. The risk of anti-social and dangerous self-destructive behaviour should never be callously disregarded, minimised, or underestimated.

    Be careful. He won’t leave you alone completely, when your guard is down and you least expect, he will strike. Even if is just to show you that he knows what you do and to scare you. In my country men are really possessive and it is not rare for them to kill their partners when they try to leave, they just don’t accept the loss of the property, so I unfortunately have a lot of experience with abusive men, ranging from psychological abusive, control of every move, to physical abuse and almost being killed. Two of them kept tabs on me for years, they knew where I worked, even called me at my job. One even got a job at my company by dropping my name, saying he was my ex husband, which was a lie. The other one knew everything about me even after 10 years of the break up. Once you are on the radar of these psychos, trust me, they don’t let go. They may back off for a while, but be really, really careful. They don’t accept losing.

    This is a scary time to be a parent of a child of any age, from toddler to teenager. Perhaps my view is skewed, but it seems that the world is a much more dangerous place than it was when I was growing up or when my children were growing up. In any case, I am so grateful that my two sons and one daughter survived their teen and young adult years intact and connected with sane, stable partners. The parents of this young woman did all they could to guide and protect her, but to no avail. How sad that two young lives were destroyed in this case, and I shudder to think of the collateral damage to their families.

Of course, terrible crimes were committed, but one rarely heard about them. The population has skyrocketed in the past 50 years, too. But, I agree with you that people are just sick mentally. There is one sociopath/psychopath in every 100 people. With the world population at 7+ billion, a lot of very dangerous people are out there! Not all with ASPD commit crimes.

But in fact there were many more incidents of harassment and social media stalking, not to mention depression and tears. (See longer docs and write ups) Stalking and harassment, even among teens, is illegal and I refuse to believe he showed no signs of being unbalanced at home. SURELY his parents must have been contacted and informed at some point. And yet he was free to drive around at night, text, steal grampa's gun, etc., with seeming impunity. Unfortunately, there's still an onus for the the victim to deal with an ex's mental issues -- especially in the case of teens, when they're supposed to eventually "grow out of it". And, you know "boys will be boys".

He was examined by doctors hired by both the prosecution and defense, and both doctors found that he didn't know what he was doing was wrong as a result of his severe mental illness.

    Except he would have been aware of where her head rests on her bed, I'm sure he'd been in her room many times. If he just wanted to scare her, he would shoot the gun literally anywhere else in her room, but he specifically shot in the spot where he knew her pillow/her head would be. I don't believe this was a scare attempt. At least if I was on a jury, I would have no problem believing this was intentional given what he knew and the spot on the wall he specifically went up to.

    The comment section is full on "blame on the victim". It's normal to start your first relationship at 14, and NO ONE should blame Emma's parents. If you try to overprotect your children, they will simply go against your back, sneek out and other things. Your children need to trust you. Emma's parents did everything they could, but Railey was out of his mind. He killed her in her home while she was sleeping. It's a tragedy and the only one to blame is Railey

    Excellent analysis. I think young love can be particularly dangerous when a person lacks emotional stability and/or emotional support from their family. Emotional regulation then hinges on the relationship, with any break from the relationship feeling overwhelmingly destabilising. I think self regulation is an important skill that should be taught to children from a young age. And as someone else mentioned, interpersonal relationships and healthy boundaries

    People like Riley are the same type of person who tries to scare and guilt their partner into staying with them by threatening to kill themselves or, like in Riley’s case, pretend to be in danger or injured for sympathy and so they will stay with that person out of guilt. If there’s anyone who is in a relationship like that and you are reading my comment and watching this video, this is your sign to get out. Doing crazy stuff like this can easily, and most likely WILL, lead to more dangerous behavior and potentially murdering you as a result. People like Riley have the mindset of, “if I can’t have you, then no one can.” That mindset is such a dangerous thing to have and please get out if your boyfriend OR girlfriend displays behavior like I have mentioned. Get out now while you still can, get a restraining order and press charges, then move or go to stay somewhere else that they cannot find you as well as change their number (since blocking their number isn’t good enough because they can use burner phones and even texting apps that will make it seem like they are texting you from a different number). Stay safe, y’all. ❤️

    Yes! I just requested the Whittemore case. So upsetting and heartbreaking.

    And yet they always say borderline personality disorder is more common in women than men. Yet it's men who more commonly commit these types of acts.

    Funny how everyone is blaming Emma's parents when RAILEY'S parents didn't raise him well and prevent him from stalking a 16 year old girl.

    It’s so weird, there’s like no info to be found on Riley’s parents.

    Riley mentions a stepfather when talking to the police when they interviewed him. He also said that he lived with his grandparents. He stole his grandfather’s gun and used it to murder Emma.

    Also, his claim that he didn't want to go to prison rings hollow. Emma didn't want to die either hers is way more permanent than yours.

    What a terrible tragedy, my heart breaks for her poor parents! So chilling that he actually marked where her head would rest in relation to the window! What a great analysis, and advice that you gave, Dr. Grande!

    Poor Emma. She tried and so did her parents! I was in a similar "relationship" in high school and it ended terribly but, I did not die. I almost did but, thankfully, pulled through. My parents did absolutely nothing to help me. My friends, aunt, and teacher tried to help but my parents turned a deaf ear.
