Even if this guy didn’t hurt anyone, I’d still hate him.
Haha! Good one.
Lol
Same... he quite loathable
😂 😂 😂 😂
100% you can see right through him! He thinks he's the smartest person in the room, when he's the dumbest
He really thought taking the stand was a good idea. Lock him up, throw away the key
AGREED!
He thinks he's so much smarter than he _actually_ is!
Such a Narcissist Sociopath...
QUEEN!!! Yep bc he's that much of a narcissist,lol.I say bravo to the lady doing the cross examination...not reacting to his snide remarks & attitude had to be hard!!!LYSM!!!!
Hi Bailey!!!
He’s so cringe. Ugh! Horrible human!
I know that this is a very small comment, but to me holds a lot of weight. Listen to the noise made when he breathes in through his nose from “crying.” It’s dry. Think about that for a second.
NO, Maybe a prisoner could just whack him.
It's hard to fathom that he ever was a likeable guy. He is just despicable.
I thought I was the only one that thought that!!! 🫣
@@annybarzaga21 not at all, he turns my stomach, family annihilation aside.
Imagine marriage to him or wanting to have kids
He's a pouty narcissistic clown
He speaks highly of you
Benadryl and a pellet gun?! What a spineless dork! He had no intention of unaliving himself. He was building his case. He’s nothing but a cowardly liar
😂
Don't forget the zip ties. He's disgusting.
😂😂
LOL no doubt someone in the medical field doesn't know how to really make it work. He's a liar and a creep.
This guy is so unfamiliar with experiencing human emotions, he cannot even fake them.
😆 🤣 😂
well said
Agreed. How hard did you cringe when he was making jokes while describing how he felt when he 'learned' his kids were dead? (it was like I was t-boned by a Mac truck full of dynamite)
This was perfectly put. It's like watching a poorly designed robotic A.I. attempting to mimic human mannerisms and emotions. He's truly nauseating. I hate to seem like I'm victim-blaming (cause I'm not) but I just can't wrap my head around how his wife had 3 children with him and stayed with him as long as she did. How could anyone stand to listen to or look at him for more than a few minutes? He's disgusting. I hate him.
@@1976cali I agree. He is totally repugnant!! 🤢 🤮 ... But , my guess is , he was nothing like this in HS when they met. Some people can be one way today, and do a full 180 tomorrow 🤷🏾♀️
Anyone wanting to see a perfect example of narcissistic personality look no further! He is infuriating!!!
Did you see his interrogation on YT (or elsewhere). Compared to that, he comes across as a caring, kind and compassionate man here. Just in comparison though. Freakin' nutter.
He doesn't know the words YES/NO....when answering questions does he
Dips a bit into psychopathy.
I came to comments to say the exact thing.
@@cher3093 I agree
Imagine coming home and finding your wife had killed your children and family dog and turning to her and saying “we need to get you some help… I’ll take the blame for this, but please, PLEASE go and see a therapist!”. I loathe this man from the marrow of my bones.
Right!!!
I mean I want to find a guy to marry me though that would show such loyalty lol
He needs to see jenny craig...
His stinking attitude on the stand speaks volume that he's guilty of killing his family..He can't even pretend to be innocent...OMG!!! He's going under the prison...fake tears n all OMG... 👿 👿
He speaks highly of you
It’s unbelievable his arrogance. I’m glad the jury could see straight through him.
His arrogance is literally off the scale.
God, if they didn't that would have been a crime in and of itself.
He's so up himself.. loves himself.
He can't even produce a tear.
I love how the lawyer lady goads him.
One juror almost let him go. Other folks had to talk sense into them. Thank God. It's completely wrong in my opinion to not allow his finances in as evidence.
He doesn't hide it
For someone who is on trial for a quadruple homicide, he’s incredibly cocky.
Ya for most of us that would be a major humility pill it's so crazy.
I thought the same thing. Very arrogant,,, a, 'I'm smarter than you', attitude.
I wish more people were able to identify this personality type when confronted by one. Avoid them like the plague...I know 2 people like that and they are relatives. They both think they're the smartest person in the room.
Smartest guy in the room, don’t you know? 🙄
@@ailleananaithnid2566 Confident, as if he thinks he's really going to walk free.
They should be able to charge him for inflicting that testimony on the people.
😂🤣🙈
yes definitely
Absolutely!! Charge him for every unnecessary word he speaks
@@inherownwords the court reporter as well!
Seriously! He really thinks he’s something. What a psychopath. Let’s just hope every single inmate in prison knows exactly what he did to his family. It’s not going to go well for him.
If "never should have taken the stand" was a person 🙄
😂😂😂
Everything you need to know about this man can be seen in his behaviour when the prosecution objects to his answers . The absolute contempt that comes over his face says everything.
I'd pay to bit*h slap him! 😂
OMG, I was just thinking that! Good catch!…👍🏼
He’s looking at the prosecution like he wants to cut her inferior vena cava.
Exactly, even if you wouldn't understand the language...!
Yes!!! Every time!
This dude is stone cold crazy. I’ll never understand why narcissists think they can talk their way out of any situation. He’s utterly unbelievable and unsympathetic.
💯 Can u imagine how much His wife and kids must have gone thru living with this man.
@@sunshinem.8216 Yeah, I can sort of relate. My ex husband was abusive and very controlling but he wasn’t quite as bad as ole Anthony here…at least I escaped with my life.
Their fatal flaw is that they believe they're smarter than everyone else and, of course, they never are
He’s not a narcissist he’s a psychopath. He’s feigning all his emotions.
@@sunshinem.8216 I perish that thought 🤦🏽♀️🤮 ! even his defence is feeling embarrassed by she over-doings .
And this is why you don't take the stand in your own defense. He is a walking billboard for what a Psychopath looks like. And he has no clue that everyone can see it. Wow
Compared to his interrogation, he comes across as a caring, loving man here. Seriously, you wanna see a cold, calculating psychopath, watch the interrogation (it can be found on YT).
@@susanivy3619 I don’t see the caring from Todt at all. Where do you? Do you believe it’s authentic? (PS. I saw the interrogation too, so it sounds like we both know he’s a liar and only cares about himself and his future).
I see a man who thinks he’s a victim and loves to yap about his experience endlessly. Despite being told repeatedly to shorten his responses, even by his own counsel, he continues… because that’s how important he thinks he is, that’s how much he loves to hear himself talk, so he chooses to not respect the court process. He acts like a bratty child when prosecutors do their job to stop his off topic monologues. I don’t see a caring man. I see anger and resentment from a know-it-all who didn’t do a dang thing when he supposedly found his children dead!! Who didn’t do a thing when his wife supposedly killed herself. But yelled? What a joke. No love. No care. And also a difficult personality from the stand. He actually thinks he’s a victim.
@Sean Masters completely agree
@@susanivy3619 Sorry, but I totally disagree.
He’s trying to manipulate, and run -his- the show.
His demeanor changes when he doesn’t get his way. His tone is often aggressive. Leans forward and points at the prosecutor. Swinging on his chair, gesticulating excessively, snapping back at the prosecutor. Repeating questions is a tactic people use to stall for a second while they think. (need time? Just pause, then answer).
I’m no expert, but my opinion is that his body language isn’t that of a caring, loving person.
Eye rolling, combative replies, and being snarky are the last things someone should be doing while on the stand.
He’s in court, acting as if he’s having an argument with someone in his private home.
Yup. He is completely oblivious. That's what makes him so hilarious.
I’d be useless on a jury. I’d find him guilty on his personality and demeanour alone.
I mean, his confession and the evidence didn’t help. But you’re not alone my friend- even if he MAY have come off as possibly innocent, he ruined that for himself with his crappy performance. We are humans, we are gunna be biased, this jury included.
Ha, same. Never heard of him and only five minutes in this video, and in my mind he's guilty. Based on a horrible aggressive personality. Also discusting overall, makes me🤢, wouldn't touch him even with gloves..
Lmbo, same
“What are you doing darling?”
“Oh nothing dear… just severing my inferior vena cava.”
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This comment deserves 1million likes lmao
😆😆😆
This is what extreme narcissism looks like. This is what thinking you're the smartest person in the room looks like. This is what a murderer looks like.
Well said.
i like narcissists we are all that way but doing illegal stuff is different they should teach narcissism in schools
Ok amber
10:00 “I stepped on a bee”

Wow. I honestly don't think I have ever wanted to punch someone so badly in my entire life. He is truly demonic.
Me too. Loves himself. Uggh!!
He’s worse than a Jekyll & Hyde😊.
He’s a schizophrenic.
Omg YES!! I have never wanted to punch someone as badly as him. What a joke of a human.
He is so arrogant. I feel the same….
My eyes are permanently stuck in the back of my head because of rolling them the whole time watching his testimony.

That old chestnut
Poor dog
God bless them. He must have caused such anxiety and stress every day of their lives just by his personality alone. Then add in the chaos and concerns about all of his fraud costing his wife and children every bit of financial peace of mind. He had to have blamed his standard financial obligations and his willingness to commit Medicare fraud on “their needs” Never based on his own desire to live a fancy life, living well beyond his means to project a pimp daddy lifestyle.
I love when defendants take the stand. You can see who they are so clearly.
It's nuts!
So right !
Right! It is always a bad idea. But Ilove it as well😂
you are right about that 🤌🏼
Crazy how you can get to know someone within such a short amount of time.
Thanks to our Judicial system and hardworking lawyers and prosecutors.
Long Live the State. Make America Great Again.
You know you're in for a ride when "What is your age?" is a difficult question.
HaaaahaaaaYes
Self important toxic narcissist 🤢🤮
Yes, that was indeed my first impression of him
🤣🤣
I don't know the rules to this question.... unbelievable!!!!
WOW THE GUY FALLS APART TALKING ABOUT HIS WIFE BEING SICK, BUT TALKS ABOUT HIS KIDS BEING DEAD AND DOESN'T SHED A TEAR. AWESOME ACTING
Imagine being on the jury and having this psychopathic narcissist constantly swivel toward you and stare at you while spinning a web of insanity full of lies, all while ATTEMPTING (and failing) to mimic human emotion, facial expressions and overall human demeanor. OMG, the poor members of the jury… he is what nightmares are made of.
I would have to have been making dirty faces at him of disgust so he would know that I ain't buying one word of it
If I had been on that jury and he swiveled his chair towards me, I would’ve never acknowledged him visually. I hope most of the jurors did the same.
It's when he rolled his eyes on every objection, even when he's mid-fake-hysteria.
@@zeldagoblinomg everytime it happened I was taken aback that he would do that. I wasn't surprised about his "real" self but the fact that he would jeopardise his acting so blatantly! Dude thought he was rehearsing 😂
@@colkusu Honestly, I think he's that egomaniacal that he thought the jury would be on his side, and think, "Yes! How terrible to interrupt this poor man when he's telling his story, how rude!" I'll bet he thought they'd believe he was right to be irritated by it, and that perhaps they'd be rolling their eyes together along with him.
I don't know why people are so hard on this guy. Who among us has never slept in a van for ten hours in a driveway before going home and finding their children dead and then watching their wife stab herself and then driving to a gun shop and buying a pellet gun and then buying some food and then just not doing much for a few weeks.
I’m telling you. It’s frowned upon in some circles but my friend group and I do this at least twice quarterly. Granted we’ve gone through a few wives but that’s a small price to pay. 😩😩🤣
🤣🤣
Ahhh.. good point!! Lol
Sleeping in van rn. Think I'll give it another hr before going in to check on kids
Wow, great analysis
Loves to hear himself talk. He isn't nuts, he's just evil.
Wouldn’t u hate to be his cell mate much less his spouse. He’s pure narcissist!
He's gonna learn to stfu pretty quick in prison
@@cindyhaas3781 haha good point! His cell mate will probably end up stabbing himself just to stop hearing his convoluted garbage!
He thinks he’s much smarter than anyone. And loves to hear himself talk his bs. Glad he was found guilty. He killed them for sure. They were of no use to him anymore. And the dog?? Probably again he didn’t want any responsibility of anything alive except himself
Narcissist
1:41:30 "My wife killed her kids"
That statement in itself was a such a nail in the coffin of his entire case.
Nice catch I’ve watched this a million times didn’t hear that
What a strange thing to say about your own kids.
Wow! They were not HIS kids too?? Way to blame the people who cannot speak
@@ksmith5856a common tactic by people trying to hide their guilt is to use distancing language when talking about the fake version of events.
Also, did you see him struggling to speak at any point during his testimony? Because I didn't.
Her poor family has to hear this crock of !@#$ SMH. A narcissistic psychopath in all of his glory telling his pathetic story . What a COWARD
Mr. Todt, your impression of a balloon being rubbed is insanely good. You are free to go.
😂
It’s crazy good right?!
@@pgunthel I’m dead💀
Mic drop 😂
It’s creepy how he swivels in the chair going from “emotional” and “crying” to angry/cocky when his testimony is interrupted by an objection.The prosecution is awesome! She’s bringing out his true nature without much effort at all.
Sounds very much like Amber Heard ,
@@Anonymous-lq2bs watch the Jodi Arias cross. She would spin her head around to face the jury directly with each and every answer. It was a wonder she didn't get whiplash!
@@kittenkorleone2918 aye , she is a real piece of work , not a girl worth dating ,
My thoughts exactly…arrogant.
He does that whole Amber Heard move: so upset one second then completely stone-faced the next. This phenomenon should be taught in law schools and called "The Amber Heard". Emotions don't work like that.
He thinks he's the smartest one in the room, his arrogance was off the charts!!
Absolutely!
His lawyers probably HATE that guy with a passion. They likely tried unsuccessfully to train him on the stand, told him to be non-combative, yet there he sits, being extremely defensive and combative.
Michael Dunnce vibes.
@@mikejames4691 that’s why he is where he is right now and, going where he deserves to be later, in a rat hole .
The dunning kruger effect
His face every time the prosecution interrupts is so telling. He looks so angry when each time his narrative isn’t allowed to run on and on.
And he stopped absolutely to look on the jury. She is danger to him so he is concentrated on her totally.
I also think he's a misogynist. He hates women, especially smart ones.
People are commenting that the prosecutor is terrible, but the way she says “ok” after he goes off on an angry tangent, is perfect.
That’s how you handle a narcissist. They hate when you do not engage in their bs
Ya... she did a good job shutting down his bs with her "non responsive" objections... but her questioning was weak.
@@thetruepatriot7733 it was but I feel like she did have to ask too much cause she knew no matter what she asked, he was going to bury himself. Kinda like Jodi Arias did. But that prosecutor was top notch, insanely good!!
In press conference they said it was a tactic to let him show his real personality to the jury. That they decided to be hard with him on the go when they saw how he is reacting to prosecution objections.
@@justynaciolek9725 mission completed lol
@@thetruepatriot7733It had to be, so he didn’t get so angry and defensive that he went off the rails.
The key here was to prove he is lying, not make him appear crazy.
No wonder why his wife was sick, just listening to him talk makes me sick literally!
Exactly. He’s repugnant
His wife was a nice looking woman who by all appearances seemed like a decent person and mother. What on Earth did she see in him? He’s disgusting.
Lol omg so funny
@@user-od4zo1ow6d I wonder about that too.
lol
Imagine being married to this guy and having to listen to him on a daily basis 🤦🏼♀️
🤢🤮🤢🤮
Probably why she was stabbing herself in her inferior vena cava.
I’d rather be dead
🤮
No wonder she developed health issues.
"I was so hardcore about joining my family, man I totally tried to off myself with children's Benadry and Mountain Dew l!"
So instead of going to a jail for a few years for fraud, he decided to killed his family and blame his wife. Not one ounce of logic or accountability was used. How in the world did he not get the death penalty.
Anybody notice how when the prosecutor objects, he stops, sighs like "How dare you interrupt my performance", and turns back to his attorney? Every single time!
Those moments are the best for me.. the wrinkles in his forehead and the way she says "ok" when he lies...haaa
Yep, utter contempt toward her and need to control. I'd hazard that he hates women in general. I have zero idea what his wife saw in him
Just his tone of voice when answering during cross vs direct. So smug, like she's beneath him 🙄 interrupting, correcting, etc..... not a good look when you're on trial for murder.
@@blessedblessed5018you genius! Haha Yes I went back and watched it again and every time she says “ok” he hates it so much like a bomb going off haha
@Diddy_KongBat87 listen to them lie, say OK n keep questioning 🥰🥰🥰🤩😘
The way he rolls his eyes and over exasperates whenever he's speaking to the female prosecutor; I can only imagine how much he gaslighted his wife and children.
He's a fast talker that says nothing!!! Too bad for the wife and kids!
Ughh he is sooo gross! That prosecutor rocked, I would have punched him for sure lol
@maza azam so go hangout with the wacko murder then.BYE>
@maza azam Defending an abusive gaslighter?
@maza azam Tony, is that you? You're really gonna have to accept the jury's verdict!
i'm fascinated by this to the point of obsession. i must have watched it over a dozen times. cant imagine how the jury must have felt during the 90+ minutes he attempted to insult their intelligence and mislead them with this pitiful, pathetic, farce of a testimony. i would have struggled to hide my contempt.
The prosecutor got him pretty good. 'just answer yes or no...yes or no Mr. Todt....Non responsive your honor...yes or no? Mr. Todt???" Love it

Dude left the witness stand thinking to himself, "Nailed it!"

Gosh that's great! You're probably 100% right! Went to meet with lawyers privately after trying to high five them I'm sure!
Yep he definitely won the academy award
🤣
🤣😂🤣🤪
I am a former cardiology technologist. A physical therapist has no business explaining cardiac function to a jury. This guy thinks he should have been a doctor and thinks he knows more than anyone in the room. A true psychopath, it seems.
Narcissists think they know more and are above everyone else. Psychopaths have no empathy. He probably has both.
As an ER trauma nurse when he started to talk about a fib I wanted to throw up. All of the PTs in our hospital do their job and we do ours. Means I don’t know what pts know as far as in-depth muscle and skeletal and movement and our PTs wouldn’t try to run a code. He is truly disgusting. Bury him under the jail.
I thought the same, said to my husband, a physio that think he is a cardiologist.
Lol he’s definitely the type to say “I am!” If someone asked if anyone was a doctor on a plane 😂😂
maza azam - Could you translate please?
15:54 "I consider myself a third kid."
He said that without any shame whatsoever.
His poor wife! She suffered long before the murders. May she and her children rest in peace.
Should be titled: “Anthony Todt Gives a Master Class in the Mannerisms and Manipulations of a Malignant Narcissist”. Good gravy.
Him getting mad when they ask him to stop answering is hilarious. What a drama queen lmao.
He's used to being in control.
@@eleanoraquitaine2966 exactly my thoughts 👍🏽
@@eleanoraquitaine2966 Exactly, he was a real tyrant. When he mentioned that his kids had not put his tools back in his truck, I got chills.
He is very arrogant. He thinks these people care about his medical training.
He had a line that he had practiced...almost like a script...when he get's cut of...he is indeed upset for not being able to controle the situation!! Knowing he can't get all the (totally practiced) information that he wants them to know.. out!!
When you see his interigation tape...he is not showing any emotion..of any kind at all!! He calmly explained how he killed the children!! This is a totally different storie!! 10 attempts to kill yourself...and you are still alive??? Not to mention all the " like i said before" and "as i already explained before" in his very arrogant way!!
The coldness the swiftness in wich he answers the questions about the time he "found" his kids dead...like he wants to give the information quickly....by coming across "smart" ..yet forgets to show the emotions that go with that situation!!
That he went to go get a phone that he lost/ left somewhere AFTER his familie was already dead!! Why..if you plan to kill yourself...would you go back to get your phone..unless you had no plan of killing yourself and there would be information on that phone that might tell a different story than the one you telling the police!! Amazing how he tries to wrap every answer up in a story...with a pretty bow on top!!
This man is a stone cold killer and a manipulator!! But him trying to outsmart all of them...and doing so...in such an arrogant way..is accually nakes his lies ver transparant!!
So dramatic, yet so unbelievable. He can't answer the simplest question without being snarky.
I bet if you asked him what color his shirt was he would have to let you know when the color was invented , what state, by who etc. He could no doubt squeeze 30 minutes outta that one simple question.
When a lawyer asks you a question in court and your answer starts with “I’m glad you asked me that…” you. are. going. to. prison.
It had to be his idea, he must have insisted on taking the stand. His testimony was the worse. It was worse than Ted Bundy defending himself . It was so long and too awful
@@ScratchthechalkBoard Oh, most definitely his decision. Psychopaths like him think they are smarter, and better than everyone else. Luckily, when they do it in a court of law it rarely ever works out for them.
@@ScratchthechalkBoard Bundy's gets points for actually representing himself in a somewhat coherent, rational way. This guy couldn't represent himself if his life depended on it. Had he, it'd be comical if the subject matter weren't so grotesque and deplorable. This guy is a complete tool.
Is there a term for when your lawyer hates you so much he allows you to take the stand knowing that you will proceed directly to the nearest penitentiary? Good Samaritan perhaps?
If I was a defense attorney appointed to this, I’d BEG him to take the stand 😂

@@DimSimSam are you going to let him elaborate?
He can hardly contain his anger when prosecution is questioning him. Complete sociopath
when his attorney questioned him, his "sadness" seemed totally fake.........but when the prosecuter questioned him, his arrogance and anger were so genuine.

Think he was past ready to chuck the job in and retire you could see he had some sort of brace on his back through his suit jacket. It don't think the lady attorney wanted to talk to Todt.
Did you see the sentencing? He kept telling this nut job to sit down.
🐞 I didn't do anything. 😢
It's mind-blowing to watch this after his police confession video describing all the murders without an ounce of emotion. Definition of a narcissistic psychopath.
"After I saw everybody die." He didn't misspeak. He told on himself.
Freudian slip

Also when he said he typed a 2nd letter - oops, I meant retyped his wife’s letter. Lol
I caught that too.
when your parents, siblings, friends, acquaintances, and coworkers all can’t stand your boyfriend and he begins to isolate you from all of them…RUN AWAY AND STAY AWAY!!!
Say that louder for the people in the back!! This guy is seriously disturbing!
Right you'll never get away. I found out years later after I got married that my husband had followed me around before we really even went on a date. If they're too persistent at the beginning should be a red flag. I turned him down numerous times but obviously he wouldn't give up. 42 years later we have worked things out but are just friends & roommates. Watch who you entwine your life with.

@@oldeskoolnana7543 42 years later?? Why stay?
this is truly one of the most insane things i’ve ever seen
Well said. 👏
It's amazing to me that anyone would ever marry this thing.
This guy’s switch in attitude when talking to the defense versus the prosecution is WILD. He’s awful. Just 100% unlikeable.
This is my first time watching this testimony. You couldn't possibly be more correct. The difference was pronounced and instantaneous. It's like a switch was flipped. I don't think he did himself any favors with his hostile and aggressive demeanor towards the prosecution. It also seems to me that he wasn't sufficiently coached by his attorneys on how to behave under cross. Perhaps they, too, were painfully aware of his guilt and what he had done, and so didn't feel particularly motivated to help him out in this regard.
I agree! I think the difference is that the prosecution is a female. It seems he has issues with females. I am thinking he was verbally abusive and controlling. I think he wanted to hurt his wife by killing the kids first and then kill her.
Yes! I actually found it pretty creepy to watch, because it reminded me a bit of how Hollywood often tries to portray "split personalities:" the way he would swivel his chair towards the jury and act polite, interested and caring...but then the second he swiveled *away* from the jury he'd suddenly switch to hostile, arrogant and derisive...it really totally was just like watching a switch being flipped!
Also, I kept asking myself while watching his antics, "Does he not realize that the jury can still hear him even when he's facing away from them??" It was SO weird! Like, did he somehow think the jury wouldn't notice his entire attitude shift to rude and hostile, just because he wasn't looking at them? The whole spectacle was very creepy and odd to watch, for sure.
You're certainly right that he was 100% unlikeable!
@@DS-hy6ld So true about being coached! I mean, the only times I ever had to take the stand in my life was during my divorce, and even then my lawyer still made a point of coaching me on not getting visibly irritated at the opposing council's questions, (no matter how rude or invasive they were) and not making any overly emotional displays in front of the judge, etc. And that was just a measly divorce case, not a triple homicide!
Although, based on what I've seen of this guy, he seems arrogant enough to possibly think that he knows better than any lawyer, and I could totally see him ignoring his lawyer's coaching because he thinks he's just so brilliant and charismatic that the jury will love him.
Thinking the same thing- don’t like the guy and didn’t even know the story prior to watching him.
He answers like he's just hit the buzzer first in a game show. He comes off so pretentious as well. He shouldn't have testified. He's so smug and annoying. The warden in the prison should use listening to him as a punishment for bad behavior.
😂😂😂
🤣
ha ha that is funny
Normally lawyers would not put a guy like this on the stand. He's just SO unlikeable. But in this case they had to because he previously told cops that he did it. So he has to take the stand and provide some explanation as to why he said that. He can't just remain silent after having said he did it. Having said that, when he was on the stand there's zero doubt that his lawyers were thinking to themselves that this guy is an absolutely disaster up there.
🤣🤣that is a good one!!!!
He literally blamed Megan for everything! The move to Florida, getting sick, having bad days around the babies, scaring the kids, killing "her" kids, killing herself. The only thing the lady did wrong was MARRY TONY! RIP Todt family and Breezy
It is weird that he incriminates her in his confession with the detectives. I want to believe she was his victim just as much as the kids, but why would he lie about her involvement while going into full detail about murdering the children? Why would he be lying at that point if he’s already damned himself?
@@Jkon_ HI! I hate to admit how many times that I have watched this video, and that of Stephanie Lazarus. As a studying psychologist, I must admit, I am addicted. In this case, Todt is a stone-cold liar. He has lied to the FBI. He has lied to his patients. He lied to his family. For him, any thing, anyone, any excuse-is better than the life he lives. Todt used his wife, his kids and even poor breezy, as scapegoats for the life he hated. Yet, with all of his vitriol he could not succeed at killing himself. Loves himself too much. Used cough syrup to attempt to kill himself-but drank a soda to stay awake??? Which is it, Todt? Die? or live? He lives. Just like his dad. Pure -contemptuous -losers.
@@Jkon_ Because thats what narcissists do they cannot internalise blame even for things they did they will ALWAYS blame an outside party or factor. They always have a fake narrative that makes them both the hero and the victim. This guys 'word salad' is textbook. They often project what they did onto the victim.
Wow, now we know what his poor family went through on a daily with him. Ugh.
As an RN with 43 years of experience, he is an embarrassment. He was a physical therapist, he doesn't have medical expertise or knowledge required to backup most of his self important testimony. Scary person to have been in the business of providing hand on medical care. He committed criminal acts related to billing for his business and was on his way to being prosecuted for these crimes when the murders occurred. It isn't a surprise that he currently blames his wife for the fraud . He is absolutely in love with himself and the sound of his own voice. I believe he has no idea how he appears to others. His direct examination is just awful. It is annoying verbose and overly detailed . What a piece of work
Did you see in that 27 page letter he wrote to his dad where he said he felt like a failure for not being able to revive Megan even though he’d been able to successfully revive three patients with cpr? Like dude, really? What kind of physical therapy are you doing where patients are going into full arrest? The vast majority of medical professionals don’t encounter one experience in their entire careers where cpr is required. And we’re supposed to believe he was three for three before that night? That’s ridiculous! CPR is rarely successful.
EXCELLENT OBSERVATION...you put into words what everyone who watched this is thinking...BRAVO!
His attempted use of medical terminology would be hilarious if the whole situation wasn't so horrendous
Imagine going to get therapy and this guy walks in the room I would walk out in the first three minutes lol and his fake crying so obvious he really thinks he can act lol
@@samuelvazquez6762 he’s watched to many Law and Order episodes.
The attitude of this man is unbelievable.. he doesn't even try to be likeable.. so arrogant..
totally agree. just for his attitude alone he deserves the chair.
He doesn’t see himself as others see him. He shouldn’t have testified but I’m glad he did.

Gotta love when narcissists think taking the stand is the way to “tell my story.” All they see is the chance to be the center of attention, and then they’re shocked when challenged.

Not nuts, nuts have no control, this man is completely in control.
It’s very hard for me to listen to his voice without ringing in my ears. This bs story about not having a phone to call 911 is disgusting. I want to vomit 🤮
He’s beyond belief 😳
It made me sick watching him fake cry, and then all-of-a-sudden become emotionless when they objected (to his long answers).
I couldn't imagine my husband and the father of my children *killing* my CHILDREN (and me) and then placing the blame on me. THAT is the ultimate betrayal. It's bad enough he killed them, but to blame the victim makes it so much more sick and twisted. This man deserves to spend the rest of his life in a cage.
If you can't trust the person you share a bed with, who can you trust? Just wow.
It’s very hard to trust anyone ever ever ever
@@workingonmyroar7944 I totally agree
I 100% agree with you! His ability to spew out these ridiculous lies while simultaneously displaying his horrible acting skills and turning his “emotions” on and off like a light switch is mind blowing and gut wrenching. My jaw is on the floor watching this.
Just how did he think he was going to get away with this?? Is it me or are people getting sicker and stupider by the minute? Insanity. Dude convicted himself with his attitude!

Excellent comment.
In fact he is so eager in telling his "story" that he completely forgets to put on his whiny face.

This is the craziest testimony I AMBER HEARD 😆😆😆
Lol he looks at the jury while answering - he “ambers” lol
😂
Its so gross that he milks a tear out of his eye at 13 minutes, then deliberately leaves it on his face as a prop for the jury for the next literal minutes until it dries. NOBODY DOES THAT . Anyone would wipe a tear streaming down their cheek, it's a deliberate move that shows just how much he's being manipulative.
Lol and then he asked someone to find him a f’n tissue and then asked for permission to turn away to clean up his baby tear 😂😂😂😂 the manipulation is par for the course!
That prosecutor is a rockstar. I love how she keeps pushing him to show his true colors.
She's playing him like a fiddle.
@@dreamsofturtles1828 . He absolutely hates this questioning lawyer. Go Girl. Get the b@st@rd.
Yessir . What a piece of crap
Thinks he's fooling the world
You could see the rage stirring up, the annoyance in his voice and that "how dare you" demeanour. She knew she was pushing the right buttons.
The fact this guy shows absolutely no emotion explaining how he found his children dead is a straight up give away. The most horrific thing that a parent could possibly experience. God rest their souls.
He talks so fast I dont know how the stenographer records anything
Absolutely - he shows more emotion when he explains his “expertise” in medical bs and “telling [his] story” than when he describes his dead children. His narcissism is off the charts. I honestly don’t know how his wife or anyone else didn’t find him terrifying.
@@AleisterCrowleyMagus Probably convinced by him in some way he was superior to her, she eventually convinced herself in fear to follow him, so she followed him on all things but there was an underlying fear factor he was playing with that would come out at times and resort to this control to lead her. And it's not really lead or follow, the fear is what leads her and she follows the fear and he properates this to his advantage, the fear is that something is wrong with you and you look towards others for advantage in life, this is how all these dudes are.
-Come over here and see a piece on The Amber Heard Playlist!! of a transcribed recording from the 7th day of the trial of Johnny Depp chasing Amber Heard with a blade
I just listened to his interrogation video, where he admitted to killing his whole family, and he stated he was of sound mind at the time of the interrogation, this is what brought me here, this is insane smh
Notice how he was exceptionally "emotional"when his attorney asked questions, then when the prosecutor questioned him he was just plain aggressive
And stopped to talk to jury. He went straight into defensive and combative state.
I just watched the interrogation footage of this dude and I'm having trouble believing this is the same guy!! He was completely emotionless and sat incredibly calm there, but here during the trial he's animated, tortured and "weepy." Plus, his story has totally changed from, "I smothered and stabbed my kids" to "I found my children dead when I got home." Wow.
I think he was initially going to try for the insanity plea, found out that wouldn't work, then cooked up this ridiculous story during his two years in jail.
Yes.
And He even Looks different.
Creepy
Sorry for bad english.Iam German.
This bloke has make up on hi😮s face
If I hadn't watched the confession where he detailed how he killed his kids and then read that he stayed in the house with their dead bodies for a week, I would still know this guy is a lying sociopath. 🤮🤮
He stayed with the dead bodies for 3 weeks!
Y’all… no way. Stayed in the house with them?? I’ll watch this first then go experience the interrogation… if I have to see his eyebrows raise into that “believe me” face one more time… 🤜 🥴

@@olivegreen337 What? Was he too lazy to bury them under the patio?
I'm a biologist. The fact that he thinks swallowing benadryl and metformin is lethal is hilarious to me. You'd get sick af, but you won't die. He's full of it. Also, mountain dew isn't going to prevent you getting sick, if anything it would hasten it, especially when paired with an energy drink.
He's so smug about knowing more about medicine and human biology than anyone, but his actual knowledge is pathetic!
Yea ,I found that very interesting about him. He should had known that. I was a LPN and I know that much and I definitely know actual ways to kill myself if that’s what I deserved. He had no problem killing his entire family , yet he couldn’t Jill himself? Haha he is a straight up narcissistic sociopath joke of a man!
Kids have died from taking too much benadryl. I believe I heard on news.
Adults died taking too much diphenhydromine.

So true. Wish I was aware of men like this years ago. I feel for Megan and the tortured she must endured
After approx 30 minutes, I had enough of listening to this man. It's unreal. I'm sorry for his wife and kids and the loved ones.
I love it when the prosecutor cut him off...it infuriated him
One of my favorite things about our criminal law system is that it allows narcissistic criminals to entirely incriminate and expose themselves on the stand like this. They really can't help themselves.
I'm also a big fan of the way he had two lawyers who both told him not to do it too so that he had no excuse here either. It's like walking to the gallows and the hangman asks you if you want to walk away and they like nah, I want to hear my own voice on a stage.
Good thing too because the prosecutor sucks.
It strongly discourages them from doing so actually as we saw at the beginning. The judge basically told him not to. Not that it would have changed the verdict anyway. The "she stabbed herself after making a pie because of Hinduism," defense was never gonna fly as "reasonable doubt".
It’s my favorite thing to watch, as they bury themselves into the inevitable hole they have dug for themselves
No they can't. This man is an extreme narcissist and thinks he's always the smartest person in the room. Prosecution probably did back flips after finding out he was taking the stand. He probably thought he did an amazing job testifying, when, in reality, it was one of the most cringe testimonies I've ever witnessed. This guy is obsessed with himself.
The way he swivels the chair to face his attorney or address the “objection” and answers “yes” to his name being called is so scary. It’s like he’s activating a new persona.
I love the dramatic ‘can I turn around ? ‘ when he blows his nose.
I bet the judge is gritting his teeth while listening.
I honestly do not think he could have done more to convict himself other than just confessing on the spot. What a tool.
The sad thing is that confessing was the first thing he did and it’s all been downhill since.
@Phil Leonetti Jr. his lawyer advised him NOT to take the stand. Not much he could after that. The lawyer is far from a tool, it’s his client that’s the problem.
He confessed to police when they first questioned him. When referring to a person as a tool his face will forever pop into my head.
@Phil Leonetti Jr. You clearly don’t know narcissists. No freaking way can you blame his lawyer for him taking the stand. Look at his rambling at sentencing and his lawyer got up twice to tell him to stop and he wouldn’t.
After hearing him talk about his wife’s health problems, it sounds like she was too frail and weak…to kill anyone!
Yep, I also caught that point the prosecutor was trying to make.
She was also “so crazy” …he did nothing to keep her from harming her kids.
He wants it both ways.
Right!? He claimed she couldn't even walk much of the time and needed him to carry her...yet somehow she made such a miraculous recovery that she could kill a struggling 13yo boy and 2 other kids?
Also, what does it say about HIM that (at least according to him) she repeatedly threatened to murder their children, and he was supposedly so dedicated to "honoring and obeying" her that he just...didn't try to seek help, even though he claims he knew that his kids' lives were in danger!?
His wife sounded very weak and he also used his size against his family. He literally killed his daughter by laying on top of her for suffocation….
Best point!
He goes from crying to a totally straight face.
He went from being emotional when the defense attorney questioned him to being defensive and angry when the prosecutor questioned him. That is not how an innocent person would respond. If you are truly sad and emotional, then you’d remain sad and emotional, no matter who was questioning you. The prosecutor was literally asking him about when he found his children dead and when his wife allegedly killed herself. Out of all the questions, those were the times for him to be extremely sad and emotional and he wasn’t. The fact that he flipped his emotions so quickly and had no emotion when talking about their deaths says everything you need to know about him.
For someone who remebers nothing after the fact, he sure can recount a lot of information.
True
Your comment makes the whole situation that much more scarier/twisted. I can imagine he remembers every tiny detail of how he murdered them all
Good point. Spot on.
It’s called selective hearing and selective answering. His blabbering and his high regard for his extraordinary intelligence and knowledge of nothing of any consequence has placed himself in a comfort zone where he spews rubbish and his pea brain can’t recognise that he’s a delusional pos.
EXACTLY!
As a father of two I believe that any man that can discover his dead children and describe it as if he were doing an autopsy is disgusting!!!!!
It is simply childish in my view and very, very unattractive.
He watch the pictures of dead bodies of his own family his own children without emotion and relaxed!it s disgusting and inhuman!
Do the taxpayers a favor and finish the job in jail
Gary, you are not kidding!! Completely unfathomable 😱
He killed his family right ! So we should not expect him to do human emotions at all !
Is there a word a million times worse than “detestable” to describe this human? Mind boggling and heartbreaking all at once.
Who has actual conversations after just finding out they have three dead kids in front of them ?
He admitted on the stand that there’s no way to insert a knife to your body multiple times and yet that’s what he claimed his wife did to herself. Why didn’t he grab the knife away from her then? And he drives to buy a gun, drives to CVS, drives to Walgreens, and drives to get takeout, but he doesn’t drive to the police station to let them know what happened. This guy deserves a Razzie Award for the worst performance in a drama. I hope his time in prison is taunting, torturous, and terrifying.
He lost me when he said you could describe the bug bite as "INNOCULOUS" 😑
😂
YES!!!! 😂
Bro tried to off himself 10 times. Thought I was a failure.
It is fascinating how he can’t hide his disdain for the prosecutor, especially when she stops him from rambling
It’s funny because his own defense lawyer actually told him to keep his sentences shorter basically telling him to stop rambling more than the prosecutor
I know!!!!
Not only that. He also starts looking around each time when he is interrupted like "see how awful she is to me!". So disgusting.
@@papayashan5377 lol he’s like “geez this woman, I should end her life”
And when he condescendingly keeps ending sentences with “…Okay?” Like get it???
"I consider myself a third kid." That sums him and his crime perfectly. He considered his wife his mother who had to see to every need he had. Adult children are terrifying because they have the power of an adult and the mind and emotions of a child, so they're childishly selfish, fearful, demanding, and angry. Healthy adults learn to temper these tendencies with love, compassion, empathy, responsibility, mercy but not him.
But doesn't he have three kids.....? Wouldnt he be a fourth child hahaha
I said the same thing- he would be the 4th child. But then realized he was talking about a time frame when they still only had 2 kids.
Great ,brilliant summary
Right? The only thing more despicable than knowing he forced his chronically ill wife to do all the cooking and cleaning, demanding to be cared for like a child, is the fact that he apparently forgot he's got 3 kids, not 2.
@@brandybiscoff9685 I think it's darker than that. I think he just straight up either forgot he had a third child, or was so checked out of being a husband and father at that point that his youngest child didn't even register to him.
