If i was being accused of killing someone, ide be angry and not so nonchalant. His demeanor speaks volumes of guilt!

[melodywilliams]

Now that she pointed out that his tattoo was covered with makeup I can't stop noticing the makeup I didn't notice before

[FloydRatcliffe-qv]

Very interesting and informative video! Thank you for your attention to detail! 😚🍒

I don't trust this defendant ...when he said to this jury he did not stop to go to the rest room and instead did it in a bottle just creeped and disgusted me and he gave a smile to that. ew! he is nutz!

[barbaramerricks]

They just put the defendant's cell phone number out on the internet!!!! 😮

He seems like he is telling the truth. I don't know much about the case but it doesn't seem like he is lying or hiding anything.

Q: Why didn't you stop at exit 3?
A: Because it's a TA

48:17 that statement of “that’s why I ORIGINALLY picked her up” sounds super weird as if plans changed on his accord!

[lizbethannc]

he got another woman pregnant? How is this guy getting women????

[melodywilliams]

He already lost me but he really lost me when he said that he can't remember if his brother told him he was a suspect and wanted.

I'm not a licensed psychologist but research it as a hobby. It is safe to predict he has anti social personality disorder. This is just my random opinion from listening to this testimony.

I whas wondering why she didn't leave after he try to strangle her. She obviously told her son about it. Still staying in that very dangerous situation?

[connycharleslindstrom]

This is old! He was convicted for the murder

[Discernin]

I’ve been noticing a lot of defendants lately have taken the stand. Does this truly hurt their case? Should they remain silent?

[wrkbpjj]

If he came over as aggravated, he would come off as murderous I would think. But I have not been following this.

[nickychargreaves]

Was he controlling? I've not watched the trial

[jessicabreen]

Did he win a motion to cover his face tattoo??

23:40 That Gut fell over a cliff, and is hanging on for dear life... 😢

This prosecutor is not focusing on the right things. Hammer out the odds that her body was found in a remote area in Georgia when he left her in Florida. Like go through the possibilities of how it could be possible. Ohhhh wait a minute, I like how he ended it with the dog thing but the defendant saw right through it.
