Ugh... I agree . No matter how sweet & quaint her story line is here, the bottom line WIFE had a million dollars in life insurance policies on her husband of 28 years . It's doubly painful hearing the history of their life together . Nancy planned the all the gun things & she planned & timed it, to go shoot her "beloved husband" in the back in cold blooded murder at his work place . There's a special place in hell for people like this Nancy.
Dan didn't die...Dan was murdered by a wife obsessed with guns and how to spin it into an innocent research into guns gohst guns and create a perfect murder
So far prosecutor is doing a terrible job. And the way they have this horrible murdurer sitting so close to witnesses is disturbing, for the witnesses! They might as well force witnesses sit on the defendants lap.
Wow defense opening, right out of the mouth of a story writer sounds like a "Fantasy Novel" , I guess a jury that will get instruction will throw out all the defense opening knowing it's all speculation..
Right, genius. There’s no murder anywhere else in the entire world. And by all means, if you’re in the states then get out and go live in some third world Marxist country. Why are you still here ? 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡America. Love it or leave it. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Dr. Blue Glasses there @37:00 looks ridiculous- like a cartoon character or an emoji wannabe. How are we supposed to take anything he says seriously?!?! 🤡
don’t tell me she did it according to her book…..the most stupid essay …no wonder…unbelievable! “How to Murder Your Husband by Nancy Brophy NOV 4 Posted by SeeJanePublish As a romantic suspense writer, I spend a lot of time thinking about murder and, consequently, about police procedure. After all, if the murder is supposed to set me free, I certainly don’t want to spend any time in jail. And let me say clearly for the record, I don’t like jumpsuits and orange isn’t my color. Motives: 1) Financial (this is big): Divorce is expensive, and do you really want to split your possessions? Or if you married for money, aren’t you entitled to all of it? The draw back is the police aren’t stupid. They are looking at you first. So you have to be organized, ruthless and very clever. Husbands have disappeared from cruise ships before. Why not yours? girl with knife2) Lying, cheating bastard (deception of any sort): This is a crime of passion. In anger, you bash his head in or stab him with a kitchen knife. Most of the time there is a trail that leads directly to you. Each type of murder leaves clues. A crime of passion does not look like a stranger was involved. And who is left to clean the blood from your carpeting? 3) Fell in love with someone else (usually financial is also involved here): Let’s say your Church frowns on divorce. You need to be a widow so you won’t fall out of favor with your religion. At this point, I should mention that it helps if you aren’t too burdened by the 10 commandments. 4) Abuser: This one is tough. Anybody can claim abuse. What is abuse? To a teenager, it might look different than to a spouse. As a motivation, this reason usually comes up after you’ve been arrested. Not a lot of abused wives dial 911 upon burning down the house with their husband in it. 5) It’s your profession: Now we’re talking. You already possess both skill and knowledge. You have the moral ambiguity necessary to carry it off. Quick hit and you fade from the scene. Get your payment upfront from someone else, because life insurance probably won’t send a check. Options to consider: Guns - loud, messy, require some skill. If it takes 10 shots for the sucker to die, either you have terrible aim or he’s on drugs. Knives - really personal and close up. Blood everywhere. Eww. Garrote - how much upper body strength does it require to strangle a person? Random heavy piece of equipment - usually this involves hitting someone hard with the baseball bat or the pipe wrench you just happen to have in your hand. Poison - considered a woman’s weapon.

Knowledge of pharmaceuticals would be handy. Availability would be even better. A word of caution, watch out for poisons found in nature. They are not a sure thing. Too little? Too much? Your mother always told you to marry a doctor. Now you know why. Hiring a hit man - Do you know a hit man? Neither do I. And an amazing number of hit men rat you out to the police. Orjail blackmail you later. Hiring a lover - Never a good idea. The husband dies, and the wife gets the money. The lover doesn’t always win in this scenario. Sometimes he, too, finds himself facing a loaded gun. I find it is easier to wish people dead than to actually kill them. I don’t want to worry about blood and brains splattered on my walls. And really, I’m not good at remembering lies. But the thing I know about murder is that every one of us have it in him/her when pushed far enough. What constitutes a good romantic suspense is the whys? What happened that forced a person into this situation? How will they justify this action?

34:18 The lawyer is literally aging in front of me with the stress of trying to get this “storyline” out!!!!
Hahahahaha seriously! She's giving me anxiety. Spit. It. Out 👏
Nancy wrote the opening statement and just had her lawyer read it 🤭
I was thinking the same thing!!
Absolutely! And she was very proud of it too!!
strategy is to bore jury to death
Totally agree!
Also agree 💯
It had to be! Give them so much useless information.
Two other well known writers have also written about the murder they got caught at!🤔
It's all a ruse, all the voicemails, the doting, the letters... an alibi if you will
This whole opening defense is a “story line. . . . A bad one at that!!!!!
Ugh... I agree . No matter how sweet & quaint her story line is here, the bottom line WIFE had a million dollars in life insurance policies on her husband of 28 years . It's doubly painful hearing the history of their life together . Nancy planned the all the gun things & she planned & timed it, to go shoot her "beloved husband" in the back in cold blooded murder at his work place . There's a special place in hell for people like this Nancy.
I hope the prosecution proves the obvious and that if there is a death penalty in this state it will apply.
Dan didn't die...Dan was murdered by a wife obsessed with guns and how to spin it into an innocent research into guns gohst guns and create a perfect murder
Obsessed with spending money.
This is ridiculous by the defense! Nothing about the facts of the case..a love story alibi.
All I can say is… 🤦🏽♂️
So far prosecutor is doing a terrible job. And the way they have this horrible murdurer sitting so close to witnesses is disturbing, for the witnesses! They might as well force witnesses sit on the defendants lap.
That's the defense attorney. Yikes
@@factsmatter8667 the killer defendent is sitting closer to the witness stand than her atty- and they all should be further back
It’s the dumbest courtroom I’ve ever seen.
Well I think the défense attorney did a great job!
Open and shut case, as they say. Guilty as hell.
Wow defense opening, right out of the mouth of a story writer sounds like a "Fantasy Novel" , I guess a jury that will get instruction will throw out all the defense opening knowing it's all speculation..
Opening statements are not evidence. The judge has already explained to the jury which parts of the trial proceeding are evidence and which are not.
POPS was here... Supporting the Channel.. Dang... I need that many Subs so that I could finally retire. lol 🐂🤠🐂
I like this attorney better than the prosecutor
Boring me to death.
The trial is not being conducted for your personal entertainment.
You are so witty...
Court judge got a lot of plastic surgery…. Can’t even breath through her nose 😂
Only in America
Right, genius. There’s no murder anywhere else in the entire world. And by all means, if you’re in the states then get out and go live in some third world Marxist country. Why are you still here ? 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡America. Love it or leave it. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Judge, you look beautiful!
Dr. Blue Glasses there @37:00 looks ridiculous- like a cartoon character or an emoji wannabe. How are we supposed to take anything he says seriously?!?! 🤡
I agree 💯
Maybe he couldn't tell they were blue if he picked them out without his glasses 🤓 on. They do look really crazy.
I hollered! 🤣
I had to go back and look since I was only listening. 😂
don’t tell me she did it according to her book…..the most stupid essay …no wonder…unbelievable!
