Dang. I think everyone in that courtroom already decided before opening arguments. Including the judge and her own lawyer
shes terrible person
she killed Robert when she hit him
what a liar
listen 24:39 - 24:50 prosecutor "You know that when...." " The day.... I uh.... killed Robert"...
She's insufferable. She thinks she's playing the pitiful old woman for the jury but it backfired.
A classic example of why a defendant should never testify.
Was this a good trial, should I go back and watch it? 1-10?
yes@@Lafata44
She's worse than most. Terrible!
Yes😂
She's got nothing to lose or the narcissism I her thinks she can outsmart prosecutor. She's the smartest person in the room syndrome.
She's trying to act like a poor innocent old lady ,she's coming across as a phoney 😂 terrible actress
She’s pulling a Nancy Crampton Brophy . And she’s going down just like Nancy did 😂
The worst!!
she’s not even retirement age pretending she’s on her death bed lmfao. many people her age are working everyday 🤣
Exactly I'm 65 and still working she's only 63 and acting like she's an invalid
@@user-vr6io5xb9e self snitching
Classic narcissism....she will never admit to being wrong about anything. Only to blame other people by playing the role of the victim.
How dare he question her like this while she's obviously trying to take a nap. How is she expected to fall sleep when he keeps raising his voice at her??
🤣
😂😂😂
“Is Italian the dialect you’re giving us today?”
😂😂😂
😂😂
That one finished me 😂😂😂
Look I’ve seen some people defending her fake accentS because « she’s lived abroad »… You can confuse words between languages as a polyglot, but accents… nah. I don’t buy it one bit.
I have a British accent when speaking in English since that is where I mostly learned it from and where I lived for years.
But when I speak in my mother tongue which is French… I have not, under any circumstances, ever, EVER had a British accent, nor do I make mistakes as she sometimes seems to be making obviously on purpose.
She’s a huge manipulator and I think the jury saw through it. Take her away! 👨🏻⚖️
I CACKLED
He made an ass of himself using that word! That's not the correct meaning of the word dialect! In fact, he made that ridiculous woman look smart, when he did hat! What he should have said, was "So this is the language, your using today." He's far to aggressive. She's not that smart. He'll learn!..💁🏻♀️
@@KrisCorby-iv8dg smart????? Clearly wasn’t smart enough to be found guilty 🤣
After many years have passed since this crime was committed, this lady thought she had gotten away with it. No ma’am! Now here you are facing the consequences of your awful actions!
She didn’t think she got away with it or she could have continued denying it. She would have never told her daughter about the incident if she thought she was going to get away with it. I am believing that Chris & Deneen did kill him & definitely were the ones that set him on fire.
@@PamelaMorris-fy5mbi know absolutely nothing about this case but I landed on this video and I'm halfway through and what I've heard so far I believe her. I can see her covering up what her child did in this case
She thought and they told her BRING THAT ASS HERE!!!!!
What a phony!! How could she Not know!! Poor man didn't get a decent funeral after he was killed!! Unbelievable. Prosecutor isn't going to put up with her nonsense!!
That was a total disaster. Terrible acting job by her. No doubt she's guilty.
Oh so funny how her voice got loud for a second and then tunes right back down to an elderly old lady😂
63. She's 63. That's not old. She may be trying to look old for the jury, imo.
Why didn't they adjust the microphone?
@@nancyfahey7518 imo, Courtv and L&C never make good audio choices. It's a consistent problem trial after trial.
@@missmarple8429 You must be in your 20s-30s. She absolutely doesn't look over 70.
@@missmarple8429 you left out the killing part, you did see the black widow stuff?

She heartless her whole family mother sister nephew new did nothing u can tell what kind of family her side is
😂😂😂😂😂 Best comment 😂
Thanks😁
And read the Bible...given this she demon.
This has to be the best thing I’ve watched all year! 😂. Classic example of someone who should not have taken the stand .
Yes! Exactly!
It is making me very happy watching how he is making her so annoyed.
Watch ali abulaban cross. Just like this. Classic monsters
Loved starting off pointing out the fake dialect. As an Italian, I am cheering the prosecutor already!
Oh tell me about it 😂 it's driving me nuts
OMG! Does no one understand the word "dialect?" 🤷🏻♀️ Italian is not a dialect, its a language. 💁🏻♀️ Within languages there are "dialects."
@@KrisCorby-iv8dg
fake accent
you that unable to replace the obvious when someone misspeaks?
The low voice and Italian accent are all deliberate. This black widow is absolutely frightening
She can’t stand having someone else being in charge.
That's a fact!
They both sound like a Saturday Night Live skit- him with a loud voice and her with her ever changing accents
OMG.. 😂 IT REALLY DOES! Now, I’ll have re-watch some of it so I can take it seriously, now!
“I don’t hahve a diahleck” 😆
It’s giving Family Guy vibes…
I thought that too her accent changeing
Had she always had an accent??
She is being deliberately difficult. Not a good look for a defendant. She should have passed on taking the stand.
Exactly
She didn't help herself with the meek act.
Right!!!💯
This woman is a serial killer, don’t let her calm demeanour and soft voice fool you.
She's killed more than 1 person?
@@88jeebs allegedly yes, 2 of her previous husbands are also dead and her last ex husband is considered a missing person in Jamaica.
😮😮😮😮 OMG @@Christy-.
@@Christy-. oh crap! She’s definitely off…
Wow wtffff! Is she charged for those Also???
I’m 22 mins in and she should have neverrrrrrrrr taken the stand in her defense🤦🏽♀️ this is hard to watch
She's got way too much Valium in her system. She thinks her lies are less noticeable if she whispers 😅
these types spend their life fooling people. they think it will work in a court lol
I’m 10 minutes in and I’m leaving cause this is painful 💯😂🙄
@usworkforceco.7482he’s trying to twist her words, every question he’s asking. Her defense atty should be saying something, objecting as the SA is being very aggressive & saying her words.
I’m cringing so hard. 😫
She's very loud and clear when she's speaking over him trying to make her bs points, but mumbling when asked to give a direct answer. Infuriating.
Right and I here ppl stating that state attorneys putting words in her mouth no she keep talking over so we as ppl think she said I did because I also heard saying I did when he asked if she killed Robert it sound like she said yes so ppl bashing the state attorney I think he was frustrated because she talks over him the judge had to tell to listen then after answer
@@iveliserojas612no she didn’t say she killed him at all. She said when they killed him. The states atty is being disrespectful in his entire tone & the fact the judge hasn’t spoke to him about it, is going to cause a mistrial or another trial if convicted.
I’ve seen patients like her over the years. They are “sick” and as “passive as a lamb” as the describe their recent history of illness & past medical history for you. Right up until the doctor goes against what they are seeking . Or doesn’t believe they need surgery. Doesn’t give a note for being off work etc etc
Then the real person comes out and it can get ugly sometimes.
@PamelaMorris-fy5mb agreed, i look forward to a new trial to actually get a clear concise understanding of the case, this prosecutor is all over the place, her defense is ineffective/inadequate. i dont even know what the questions are supposed to mean in the end, the arguments were cringe, her team not objecting to almost every question shows they didn’t fight for her like they’re there to do. the judge not stepping in only to tell her to stop when he’s antagonizing her & asking all these inappropriate or irrelevant questions, seeing her attorneys aren’t objecting & it’s getting out of hand should’ve made the judge correct the prosecutor too. he’s asking 5 questions in one or after she’s answered multiple times keeps extending the question or asking it in another way talking over her, leading, argumentative, badgering questions, hear say, misrepresenting the facts/misstatement of prior testimony & even her testimony as she gives it, putting words in her mouth, twisting her words, he even got the facts wrong multiple times & she had to correct him, twisting witness testimony & when she says what was said he says the jury will decide. he argued ab religion went completely off topic, he’s just a horrible prosecutor. he didn’t leave me convinced of her guilt, just his desperation for a conviction. he didn’t ask good questions & get solid answers, he just tried to prove her guilt in the cross examination to the jury, must not have had sufficient evidence against her & needed to rely on this. if she’s guilty it needs to be proven in a lawful way, a way that doesn’t rely on these tactics.
I actually love how firm he is with her! This is how you shake a liar!!!!!
Does she think by looking at the jury constantly they will believe her lies 😅😂
I think it’s a good move to look the jury in the eye.
She used that as an excuse because she can’t face the lawyer and lie effectively while looking at him.
@@Molly-nj8fi Amber Heard acted the same way as this fraud. It was a tactic that didn't work for her either, as we were told afterwards by one of the jurors who found her guilty of defamation.
Like Amber Heard did at her trial lol
If I was a juror, her turning & answering questions toward the jury would indicate to me that she's lying and saying what she thinks will convince the jury, but not necessarily the TRUTH. and therefore, she most likely is guilty.
Prosecutor knows she’s playing dumb.
Maybe he does but he's the biggest BULLY I've ever seen as a prosecutor!!
can you blame him @@melissabrown4194

I thought the biggest bully prosecutor was the one handling Jodie Arias , Juan Martinez .

Ummmmmm I believe he is to hard on her even is guilty
He's putting words in her mouth and trying to change what she said. She didn't say that they ate dinner every night at 6pm. She said 4-430!!! He tried to say she said 6. He did it many times and that's not right.

Yep, love this attorney!
Exactly!
How old is this woman? Her daughter said she's all of a sudden frail?! She's guilty lock her up.
She looks like she is in her 70s but I think I saw 63?
Yeah if found guilty which I'm sure she will be she's probably only got like 5-10 years left
The fake accent proves she is a liar. She was born in Michigan USA. No one other than a child or teen just gets an accent from being out of the country.
Wait! She isn’t foreign!?! WTF!😮
@@jennifergannuscio6086swore she was!! She is really annoying
Fake accent. “Picture is Sicily 2021”. Switches between Italian and Spanish accent. Freaking shady clown 🤡
Hilaria Balwin vibes 😂
She said on 1st question that English was not her 2nd language😂 That means English is her native language.
This woman reminds me of “the low talker” on Seinfeld 😂
😂😂😂
This was worth the wait - thank you @courttv
Boy is she guilty
So guilty
First time I heard she wasn't married to Robert. So Why not just move out away him!! Wow!! She's annoying.. you can tell she doesn't like to take orders!
The prosecutor asked the right questions and serveral times it was important to let the killer know that he didn't wanna hear brand new stories instead of the "yes-no"- examination....That sucks. Great prosecution! Good job!
She said " the day i killed Robert" Sigmund F slip.
This prosecutor is cold calculated shot thrower. He’s not here for no games 🎯
I have never met a meek and mild Italian woman.
She is American
She's from Detroit...
😲😲 omg...this had to be the worst testimony ive ever witnessed...
Ive watched nancy Brophy, tony todt, shanda vander ark, and a few others who not only embarrassed themselves...but proved beyond a shadow of a doubt they were not only guilty..but narcissists
But this person...holy sh*t...what a horrible acting job with the sickly old lady voice, thst would change when she was agitated..and the bickering with the prosecutor...damn
And don't get me started with her defense...not an objection... nothing... just keft her up there to flounder (not that she didn't deserve it... because she absolutely did) but her defense completely failed...isnt their job description to defend their client?!
My mind is completely blown
Another example of why a defendant should NEVER take the stand in their own defense
The only case where I think the defendant had to take the stand was Rittenhouse.
She took the stand at the objection of her defense attorney is what I've gathered.
He had the judge reiterate to her about the consequences
You should watch Katherine Magbanua's cross, you're in for a treat ;)
Damn Nancy Brophy sure crashed and burned on the stand huh?! That was a crazy one...
@@Elegant_Sausage
Yeah. Nancy crashed properly, because she faced a competent prosecutor who let her hang herself by letting her tell all her stewpid little stories,
and wasn't trying to elicit compassion for her by shouting at her.
She is only 63 years old. She still has plenty of time to pay for her crimes.
Totally agree.
She needs to be locked up for the rest of her natural life.
She has not aged well , but had -4- husbands
She looks older
@@2009cochinosI wonder if they are living
@benniewilliamson6722 They arent. 4 dead. Seriously!

She didn't really say anything. She just mumbled and was so unclear about literally everything
Is the judge in the room with us? My God, this is a train wreck!
She is annoying
Totally
Yes!! In fact I am in a bad mood just listening her
@@helenareyes6084
Me too - I’m SO ANNOYED!!! It’s like listening to Daryll Brooks!!!!
Those jaws 😂😂
Exactly 💯
She said “They” killed Robert. God. I believe she’s guilty but this is ridiculous.
Thank you! I listened to it several times and heard “they” every time. She’s definitely guilty as heck but this prosecutor is terrible
I think she was stuttering. She knows something, but I don't think she actually done it. The prosecutor is horrible!! She has no atty and the judge should be ashamed of herself, allowing this type of behavior in her court.
The prosecutor doesn’t let her answer questions. Her lawyer doesn’t object.
So true ! The judge has no control she's favoring the prosecutor...just horrible...
@delorescampbell2899 so what about the other 3 or more husbands that are dead? one being “missing” still, even saw something ab her possibly being involved in her sons death, it’s no coincidence this one randomly is killed
Look I know she’s guilty but her attorneys should be objecting a lot more than they are to some of the line of questioning the State Attorney is doing- he is making negative statements about her not actual questions.
I TOTALLY AGREE!! GREAT MINDA THINK ALIKE!!
I agree. I haven’t heard him object once.
Agree
Maybe her Lawyer wants her to be found guilty too
Maybe her fake voice pisses her attorney off too
I watch a lot of trials and I’ve never seen a more silent defense attorney. Was he sleeping and woke up at the end for a hearsay objection? If this was an experienced defense attorney, there would be side bars, tons of objections for badgering the witness. It wouldn’t have turned in to this circus.
I completely think she’s guilty but now she’ll have a huge reason to appeal. Horrible defense
No this cross was reasonable. You'll see her win no appeal based on this
They can't just throw random objections at the Judge without a legal basis.
I agree with you.
Yep, she'll totally win an appeal bc she was "badgered" and her attorney didn't object to a bunch of questions. Yeah, no...
She is such an infuriating liar !! I don't believe a single word she said.
Omg!!!! She is absolutely irritating with her responses. I’m glad the prosecutor asked her about her dialect or accent. She’s playing dumb really well tho! Sick! I’m not buying it…
Objection. Argumentative.
- what counsel should have said.
Not just argumentative but badgering AND misstatement of facts/ prior testimony
Argumentative means you are asking questions that contain a summation of evidence as one would in Closing Argument. This isn’t happening. Watch the cross-exam of the defendant Nicolae Miu for many examples of argumentative questions. Badgering is the legal objection, but her attorney isn’t objecting so prosecutor can keep doing it. This disgusting witness deserves everything she got on cross and more. She even pissed off the judge, so it’s more than likely she’s irritating the jury, too. I kinda doubt the judge would sustain a badgering objection cuz this witness was so exasperating I wanted to slap her.
Wish you could speak up when she wants to but then remembers what her lawyers said and quiets backed out LOL
What a con....
She’s talking in her soft ‘Italian accent’ when she’s trying to get her point across but when she gets irate speaks in English with no accent 😂 she’s such a fraud, the wheelchair, the poor me attitude, so fake!
I’m getting Jodi arias flashbacks when she turns to the jury to tell her story. Just answer the prosecutor’s questions 🙄
Yes!! My thoughts exactly
I've seen a lot of other defendants do that
Jennifer Crumble. And I believe Alex Murcoch did as well
And Amber Turd
Amber Heard 😉
Prosecutor could be distracting to jury because you can’t hear testimony and he is badgering; even tho she may be guilty. Poor defense team not to be objecting left and right as he is testifying in prosecutor style.
He never read his bible in the basement! How does she know? She said she never used to go down in the basement.🙄
This Judge needed to intervene on so many levels.
I totally agree!!
So does her attorney.
She did…to get her to speak up and answer questions. It’s not the judge’s job to object on behalf of the defendants attorney.
This prosecutor is awful. She may be guilty, but his interruptions would turn me off as a jurist. Judge should have reprimanded him.
I totally agree with you...
Defense should be objecting through a lot of this. He’s narrating a lot. Her meek voice is annoying AF.
He is narrating cause it is cross examination, and he is leading her, so he is allowed to. If not, then she will go off on a tangent.
@SuperNCCC he's still not allowed to testify and he also made alot of secondary commentary after her answers which is highly inappropriate.
@@88jeebs , exactly. It was a bit shocking. “Yeah, I bet” and similar responses…and often.
@@julesbee6249 or the part where she clearly says "the day THEY killed Robert" and he immediately says you just said you killed Robert. Thats so improper.
@@88jeebs , right! And Especially because she didn’t say it. I felt like the judge and defense was weak. I do think she killed him but I was disappointed in how much the prosecutor got away with.
Her attorney is a train wreck for not objecting at all 😂
No reason, objection always needs reason.
Argumentative could have gotten through a few times
@@AmbieUnscripted agree.
The prosecutor is argumentative, asking compound questions, cutting her off before she can answer yes or no, etc. I realize the jury found her guilty but these things are objectionable for a reason because of how they can confuse the jury.
Never went down there but knew where he sat (or didn't), and other stuff. Methinks the lady doth protest too much.
Prosecutor talks about what Bev told "Big Tony" but doesnt call Big Tony to the stand as a witness to testify as to what Bev told him. The prosector testifies himself as to what Bev told Big Tony.
I object...hearsay!
RIGHT!!!!
Exactly, I think her own attorney thinks she guilty. He pretty much let the prosecutor derail her. 😂
oh yes...DEFO!!
She brought up big Tony on direct by her lawyer... how on earth can the state call someone at the snap of a finger to testify? She opened cans of worms on her direct.
She admitted she hit his head while they were in the basement. I heard her say she killed Robert. That's it for me -- guilty!
Sorry I thought she said that THEY killed Robert. I'm new to this case but right now my problem is with attorney not witness. Now I have to look at other witnesses!
@@KathieWebster-wu7pf I thought it was only me...that prosecutor is so irritating! Make not mistake I think she is guilty but that prosecutor sounds like a jerk.
It sounded like a stutter to me.
@@jpwhrbrown@KathieWebster-wu7ph This is my first watch of anything to do with this case. That said, I echo both of you. I want to find her NG just based on her his prosecutor. He looks like a complete bully and that can’t help his case. If it were me on the jury, not knowing anything, I’d be turned off by him.
What is wrong with this woman ! acting so soft spoken after butchering that poor man, and trying to erase him off the face of the earth 😢
Chris’s version of incident makes way more sense than Beverly’s
Exactly
Yes. He doesn't have to lie since he's already in prison and it was detailed nor did he argue or mumbling.
I agree.💯
I found him quite credible!
He's lying too!! How can he be trust???
I’ve watched trials for 40+ yrs and I have never seen a witness treated so poorly by the judge, prosecutor and her useless attorney who must have been sleeping throughout her testimony because I barely heard any objections. This was not a fair trial!
I agree I don’t know if she’s guilty or not guilty but this is a shameful example of the judicial system in the USA . He is deliberately trying to get a rise out of her. He’s not presenting any evidence or getting to anything. He’s just argumentative and disrespectful and saying things that he has no way to know if they’re true or not. It’s shameful this is not this is not right.
I absolutely agree with you,at this point they have no idea if she is guilty or not,she's still innocent until proven guilty, that's how the judicial system use to be.
She said that Robert never read his Bible in the basement. How is she supposed to know that if she claims that she never went in the basement?
Liar! Her manipulative tactics failed miserably during the cross examination. Justice for Robert!
Guilty
This trial is such a shitshow lol. The defense attorney is so hilariously bad you almost forget how ridiculous the prosecuter is too
Been waiting all day for this train wreck
Wow she expects people to believe that a child never asked about her father ever again and just didn't care.
Child was prob scared they’d be next.
Attorneys should not lie extremely when asking a witness questions. Plus scream. Many Judges would reprimand the attorney.
agreed!! Horrible little man, very UNPROFESSIONAL, Bullying, raised voice, Lying...etc etc. The Judge was pretty poor for not reprimanding him...OFTEN!
Absolutely!!! I think he's probably the worst attorney I've seen. Just makes up what he pretends he hears and goes with it. JERK!!!
Exactly..where did they find him 😆 🤣
So why didn’t she call the police?
Especially when she knew they had him in the van to dump his body
Exactly!
Because her mind was, ya know, in so many different places. 🙄
Fantastic prosecutor! Pushing her buttons showing what she really is like... Thats the face of evil.....
I don't like how insulting he is! She's involved somehow . She's not totally innocent
Excellent and quick responses by the prosecutor. He did his homework!
@@delorescampbell2899insulting????? More like...doing his job! You go buddy!, keep the pressure on....this lieing POS
Agreed I don’t know how he managed to stay so patient with her nonsense and mumbling and fake accents
Witness Christopher said it all! End of story. Guilty.
He called her a “drunk”. I hope there are no alcoholics on the jury.
Big deal
There's a difference between drunks and alcoholics 😅
She said she was at one time an alcoholic - you’re an alcoholic all your life you just happen to be an alcoholic in recovery when you’re sober. She has very good recollection (of the parts that’s suit her) from the days when she was supposedly in the depths of an addiction.
@@TenaciousP trauma sticks out
Why is her attorney not objecting to the prosecutor arguing with the witness
Why should they?
Prob state appointed so why bother!
And why isn't the judge telling them to stop speaking over each other??!!
THAT PART!
Because they agree she's guilty as sin and are only going through the motions until that Public Defender's cheque clears?
Love her in and out fake accent. She forgets about it when she gets fired up about a question.
Nothing about her is credible or feels trustworthy but this prosecutor diminishes his power when he argues over her answers or about unimportant things and it gives her power she’s not worthy of.
It’s like he doesn’t know the evidence well. Or spends too much time on silly things and his saying:
“I’m confused…” only makes him look silly. That is not the way you deal with a woman like this.
Defense should be objecting to the badgering.
Thank you, I was thinking the same thing and he keeps cutting her off and sometimes he needed to but other times defense should have objected. Also the prosecutor has asked her a question and she says yes or no then he asks her the same question again; this is where defense should object and say, "asked and answered." My statement does not mean I think she's innocent as I think she is absolutely guilty of all charges.
@@lindafinch1520 Exactly. My worry is that if she’s guilty & convicted, she’ll have grounds for appeal. Moreover, I think there could be a hung jury.
What did you think of her daughter’s testimony? I found her very compelling.
Yes!!!!!! Where was her defense?? No objections to the badgering... being argumentative...or not letting her finish a thought??
I believe she's absolutely guilty...but her defense completely failed...
@@lifeofatruckerswife
She’s not supposed to be “finishing a thought” on a yes or no question! Even the judge has admonished her many times!!!
I don’t like his style at all. He’s goading her so she’ll get mad. There is no right way to testify with this guy, whether she’s guilty or not.
Where the hell is her attorney?! This representation is aggregious .. even if she's guilty
Absolutely! What a jerk!!!
💯!!
Egregious
He has no reason to object
Wow! This woman's colors sure shown through. She might have tried to control the narrative but this lawyer threw zingers in w/one line or two and made his points. She's a real danger to society IMO.
People are getting on the lawyer for his questions. He is literally asking yes or no questions while she is answering in long confusing responses.
Yeah that would annoy tf out of me, she's clearly deflecting as much as possible
It also amazed me how attorney objected just once.
And not only that, she is trying to talk over him, tries to answer before he has even finished his sentence, even sucks her teeth at him. She is being so deliberately disrespectful, like wtf, why are people siding with her??
I don’t get how ANYONE could side with her 😹 one of the most unlikeable defendants I’ve watched on the stand. Thankfully most commenters recognize how amazing prosecutor is
Her arrogance, posture and tone are INTOLERABLE. She is a master of deflection let's hope the jury sees through it.
Of cause the judge see's through her. . Even we can...😊
It is a free for all in this courtroom!
This exchange sounds like a drunken argument in a bar !
She is ferociously blinking 😂😂😂😂
Were the defense attorneys asleep throughout this cross?? I sure as hell would have been jumping up objecting as argumentative, badgering the witness, and many others! The prosecution attorney is mean as hell.
That being said, she’s clearly guilty
She should’ve stayed off the stand
I can't believe she wags her finger and actually makes the tsk tsk tsk sound to correct the attorney! 😮😊
On direct exam she said she never went in the basement so if thats the case how come on cross she was able to say Robert didn't actually read the Bible in the basement. Prosecutor missed that but hopefully the jury caught it.
He also should have asked her where she was born
The prosecutor is tangled in the defendants' web ...
I just made the same comment!
She slipped up once, she said very low when I kicked, than she quickly fixed it. It was fast but I heard it
Looking and sounding more feeble and ignorant than she is didn't help McCallum. What a unmitigated disaster. Not only should she be found guilty on the evidence alone, she should on this testimony, AND her attorney needs to lose their license for not talking her out of this.
I know everyone including the State Attorney is saying they cannot hear her but I could hear her pretty good all the time- that’s not to say she isn’t 100% guilty.
Agree I had no issue hearing she also didn't say she killed him when everyone is saying that that's what she said. 100% she could be guilty, but we can hear her just fine
Maybe the people in the courtroom can't.
@@MOONSLIFE36he is calling her out on her act ...I'm so frail don't prosecute me 😢
She mumbled things under her breath quite a lot.
This woman is a sorry excuse for a "mother". I can only imagine the life these girls had with this pos.
She said her son was deceased. Does anyone know the backstory?
I’m new to this case and genuinely thought she was full blown Italian for the first part of her testimony 😂
She is 100% Italian. Both of her parents are Italian .
You are correct, she playing a newly arrived person. I thought the same . Barely knows the English language. Wonder for some reason who is Dennine father , is he still alive
Ohhhh okay I don’t feel so crazy than. I became confused when the prosecuting attorney questioned her Italian dialect. Thank you!
You know when your living in another counrty long enough, You do start sounding like them.
I remember hearing Linda McCartney who was American after marring Paul and living in the UK for
the rest of her life sounded like a Brit many times.
Does anyone know her maiden last name???
17:53 It's a miracle!! She can stand. No wheelchair needed.😂
I laughed out loud when she said I think everyone should tell the truth and the way the lawyer said so do I.
Didn’t her lawyer prepare her wth
I know right
Yes and I believe they told her to speak very softly and act confused and elderly. it's not working😂
Even her own attorney was yelling at her to speak up.
This defendant is a law unto herself. She sounds like a woman whose crawled out of bed, after a 30-year binge of booze, boys and bad attitudes. ..
Her fake accents are ridiculous.
Her defense is absolutely pathetic letting this go on and the prosecutor is pretty transparently just trying to rile her up rather than prove anything. This is like a joke all around. If it isn't a mistrial she will easily be able to appeal for a new trial.
Omg this was hard to watch. 🤦♀️. This woman is unbelievable!!!!
How can she be standing near the trunk when it exploded? The little girl said that when she woke from the explosion, her mother told her to go back to sleep.
She didn't get over with her fake quiet voice - Jury found her guilty in less than an hour.
