#BlackSwanMurderTrial
I hope his brother took photos of the apartment that was setup for his child.
She reconciled with dufus Doug because she did not want to relinquish possession of her child, she didn't want the child out of her sight. She did what any psycho possessive mother would do, kill the threat. She did the crime, she'll do the time. Hope that child gets to live a normal life as only an orphan can live. This is one fked up world we live in.
Doug Benefield's lawyer was impeached on the stand respecting the lies she told here as well. She should be disbarred.
If you look at the black and white photo of Ashley, you can clearly see her left eyelid is naturally larger than her right. It was not swollen as she claims in the supposed "injury" photo...... I call BS!
@@CourtTV pages a string manipulator and he just wanted you to know he a good father to the child
He met a ballerina gold digger more than 20 years younger than him at a Trump rally and got married 13 days later. What could go wrong?
Exactly 😅
Best comment ever
Just a typical woman at a Trump rally. Women obsessed with Trump are lunatics
Right! 🤦🏾♀️
Any marriage within 13 days is a total Gold Digger situation! Look at her! He supported her right off the bat and this is what he got!! PUT HER AWAY.
I’m not buying her defence. He was in the way and she had to remove him. I truly believe she just wanted a child and not a husband and her plan didn’t work out the way she thought it would. This is not a domestic abuse case, Marsha Thompson’s case IS. Shame on you for taking advantage of the “battered wife defence” when there are so many that depend on it, because they need it.
The victim admitted to shooting gun in ceiling during argument, he sounds scary too
She wanted a child from a man w deep pockets. As soon as she realized that her accusations wouldn't work, she had to come up with a way that he would never have visitation but still get a good amount of his money. He had already given her a much nicer lifestyle in addition to a ballet company, but that wasn't enough. There was a true crime daily deep dive on this when it first happened , but I can't find it ATM.
@@fatteebaddeeyes, an no. Not a smart move, but in gun culture -- not the end if the world. But yeah shooting off a gun cuz your hysterical wife won't stfu and you don't want to disturb your daughter who's in the house ...
however--- even as Ashley described the shooting, it was not SD
The fact that she sent her mom & kid off to the park, instead of having a witness when her scarwy viowent husband is coming over- at her invite, is red flag
Her putting her 6 yr old child out there is totally inappropriate, to me, that is emotional abuse & why is she even understanding what is going on? I had to go to court for an attempted murder on myself, I would NEVER have considered taking my child to that court let alone get him to hold up a sign outside a courthouse at 6 years of age parading a sign that she shouldn't be holding I would protect my child from the public scrutiny and the emotional trauma of it all, she should be playing with her friends, or at school trying to learn and enjoy her childhood while she can.
How is she protecting her from future trauma, it's appalling! This is not a political rally, this is a murder trial defence or not, she killed her biological father!
It should be considered child abuse🤔
@@karensholes7920 👍👍
@@basiahellwich3505 I wholeheartedly agree with this. It's being manipulative and is not working in her favor. I believe he was abusive, but this is news to me and makes me think differently of her. It's one thing to have them in court, maybe her lawyer told her to bring her for sympathy from the jurors. Although that's even bad, but this is just her trying to manipulate the public and I don't like it.
@@karensholes7920I agree.
@@karensholes7920 it is child abuse
she has guilty written all over her face...
Interesting. I disagree
She's a disgrace to the real domestic violence victims.
Amen
Females say they're strong and independent and equal to men then complain about violence 🤔
She's is a real dv survivor ND it's easy to tell as a dv survivor of 8 years
@@Carlysimon99 real dv victims like Bhad Baby who has millions to leave her abuser yet still stays with him.
@@tiffanimcmillian3058she’s not she just manipulated you
Narcissists always view other humans as a resource…not someone they love only someone who serves a purpose, until they don’t!
What is wrong with this family using a 6 year old like that? This will follow her for the rest of her life. The mother was looking for a meal ticket and when it failed her narcissism kicked in. She needs to be locked up and the daughter should be with the father's family.
Well said.
Just so strange that her Mom and child was at the park and not at the house when the moving truck was there. I don’t believe her all. Now she is using her daughter for sympathy
I believe she is ab using her daughter for sympathy and so is the grandmother, she is out there condoning it, disgusting!
Her mom is an accomplice and should get charged as well . They planned it
@@TheJakebriscoe yep it’s also planned for Ashley to look all sad in court and have her daughter as a pawn protesting outside the court
Evil woman she deserves to be sentenced to life in prison and never to be given access to her daughter
No she deserves to be not guilty she's a dv survivor
😂😂😂😂 @@tiffanimcmillian3058
I hope she gets life without any chance of parole. Its monsters like her make the courts not believe real victims of DV. She is disgusting, and the guys daughter should get custody, so the monster that raised that murderer doesn't raise her the same way. That monster murdered the baby's dad because she's a vile, evil monster that was raised to be that way
@@tiffanimcmillian3058yeah I don’t think so.
@@1Vapersianprincessremember- she was trying to get away from him. He didn't even need to be at the house. He was obsessed with her.
She is evil. She had her mother take the kid to the park while she killed him. Premeditated.
I totally agree!! If he was so abusive as she claimed, why would he even be moving with her, and why in hell would momma be taking the baby to the park. She had every intention to kill him. She’s GUILTY OF MURDER…I pray the jurors see right through her bs and she gets LIFE with ZERO chance of parol.
Red flag that she's so afwaid of him but sets it up so she's alone with him. Hopefully jury sees thru that one
It’s so infuriating when women feel like they own their children and exclude the father 😡😡
Women don't "own" their children, but they have more rights over them than the fathers, because they carry them for 9 months and birth them, which puts them at risk of death while men contribute only with their sperm, that's it.
She is guilty in my opinion. Im not buying her BS story she created to keep the father from his daughter. I hope they find her guilty. Justice needs to be served
Agree. Deceased husband cannot defend himself. Her actions are premeditated. Yes - abuse does occur with no witness or persons who support abuser. Not in this situation.
He was 50 and she was 24 when they married. What could go wrong!
...and immediate sank money into her woke ballet company. Maybe ppl should take up sports that suit their body types
Ashly used him for money obvious
..add to that, they met @ a trump rally!..😳..😆😅
What does that have to do with anything?
There's been more evidence of non trump supporters being more violent and crazy and with mental health issues than most trump supporters. Of course your someone whonwoukd have to bring trump or politics into this case @KrisCorby-iv8dg
He hit a dog and knocked the dog unconscious? Wow What type of man hits a dog? Guy sounds like he doesn't have self control, and anger issues. Shoots bullets into the ceiling? I can see why she wouldn't want that type of man and his influence around her and her child. He sounds like a scary person that was obsessed with her and couldn't accept her rejection of him. I wouldn't want to live with a man like this either.
@@syritasdoneitgoodytwoshoes2471 that's what I'm saying. I don't understand why she would continually tell him she's not leaving, then plan on leaving if he wasn't abusive.
She said. No proof.
Strange that the daughter never saw them fight. She said Ashley only had problems with her and would sometimes complain about her to her dad. Wonder where are the family of his deceased wife they should’ve got them to say something about their relationship or ask the cousin about that.
She is the only one who says he "knocked the dog out". Doug admitted to shoving, pushing the dog off his lap.
I would NEVER allow my 6 year old child to be standing outside a courthouse in a high profile case where she could be in danger. This woman is narcissistic. You protect your child and it shows where her priorities are.
Oh wow... does the jury know the child is out there?
30 year age difference, gets married after 13 days ...both had their crazy-assed reasons to use each other. The real victims here are that sweet baby they brought into this mess and his daughter. No consideration for these 2 children.
Most kids that age just do what mom wants. I feel so sorry for this little girl.
This woman is NUTS!!! I hope the daughter goes with his family instead of her wacky tribe.
I would bet that custody is already Grandma.
His other daughter confirmed today in court that her dad shot a hole in ceiling and punched hole in wall, so...👋🏼you can't say he was not abusive or excuse that
Agreed
💯
Legally she had to fear for her life/body at the time. She was away from him for a year then arranged for him to be at her house.. sans witnesses
Thank you. 💯. There are so many one sided blind comments it’s really scaring me.
He was 54 & she was 24, they married 13 days after meeting. He was infatuated with her beauty, her age and she thought he probably had money…there’s a MAJOR problem right there. I’ve been following the case, and I don’t believe he was abusing her. She soon found herself pregnant and no longer wanted to be married to him and she started making up stories to get rid of him. She wasn’t afraid of him, he never was a threat to her, sadly he didn’t realize she was plotting to kill him. Why would she have been alone in the house with him, if she feared him. I think she let her mother take their baby out of the house when he arrived because she was going to kill him. Doug thought he was going to be moving with her, their text messages looked as though she was going to let him. This girl is a MURDERER, where were the tears when she was on the witness stand? She put on one heck of a show when asked to demonstrate how Doug came towards her. Still ZERO TEARS.
She’s guilty of MURDER!!
She deliberately kept him away from his child, and was trying to get sole custody of the baby, not allowing him to even co-parent together.
She needs to be found GUILTY and sent to prison with ZERO CHANCE of PAROL.
@@HelenW-if6ze huh. Maybe she is on antidepressants? Maybe she has cried so much that she can’t. We aren’t God and have no right to judge others. You must beat your own self up about little things to write such a diatribe.
Just look at her poor child outside with the Poster! That all I need to know about her mom! Sickening in all sorts of different ways.
So instead of calling 911 she goes to the neighbors house to call? This was a total setup. I hope she doesn't get away with this.
Do you think the prosecution was able to prove if tho? I didn't watch all of the trial but seems too much evidence of her shenanigans was spun or not allowed. Her affect on stage -- ooophs on the witness stand makes her discredible
@@dsoule4902 From the evidence presented at court its hard. I didn't believe her on the witness stand but I still don't see how the state proved it beyond a reasonable doubt.
Involving her daughter is cruel and disgusting. Involving her elderly neighbor also speaks volumes for her narcissism
This is classic case of a covert narcissist. She is evil!!! These people get away with so much. They are so twisted in wanting to keep their supply around but not wanting to engage in any real reality. Normal life is too mundane so they have to constantly create drama. She is a master manipulator.
Yes.
And she shot him when he wasn’t even looking at her. Probably ambush style of attack.
Astute and absolutely true observation. They are so dangerous, these types...
Ashley yanked her husbands chain, more than once. I am sure he was incredibly confused and frustrated. Who wouldnt be? This is 💔
As a father, it pisses me off that she killed her husband so she could have full custody. She knows the truth and only she knows the truth. In my mind she's guilty of murder. An because she was so selfish, a little girl is going to grow up without a father and a mother. All because she wanted him out of the picture so she could have full custody.
Wow clearly the 2 psychologists have never been around a physically mentally and emotional
Probable substance abuser (which never gets brought into court) I’m shocked at the lack of concern for a mother snd her child here. Punching walls and shouting guns IS SPECIFIC EVIDENCE OF VIOLENT BEHAVIOR. A mother wants peace and a good husband. Not abuse and control.
THANK YOU! these comments are wild
I thank you too. So many other comments its like a gathering of the stepford wives.
Thank you. Too many comment disgustingly about this case and blame the victim (Ashley) for being abused.
Im very curious what Ashleys prior husband has to say.
Being a DV survivor of 7 yrs, I believe Ashley.
I, too, married an older man who had custody of his 4 yr old son.
The DV started with a slap across my face and gradually went to broken bones, black eyes etc..
He controlled everything. He wouldn't allow me to work.
He dismantled the car distributor, so i couldn't leave while he slept or showered.
I never told anyone.
He would promise it would never happen again, but it did. Sometimes, there would be a few months in between DV, other times just a matter of days.. I placated him to keep peace.
We had 2 daughters and after 7 yrs of this abuse, I got away. If I had stayed, I'm certainI wouldn't be alive now. If I had a gun, I may have used it on him..
I believe Ashley.
Cousin Billy Bob is a creep. He most definately was hitting on her in those texts..
she hasnt testified to any of it, its her lawyer making those claims, i dont know how you could believe her until after seeing the evidence, doug is the dead one here. She said he used heavy metals to poison her and the police testified to her craziness today trying to set him up in court. She sent her mum and child to the park to kill him. I think she is a psychopath.
Mother is a complete control freak! Imagine not telling him that his child was born! I don’t buy her BS black swan for sure!!
Yeah when you’re being abused and you’re stuck with someone, you do everything you can to dampen the anger and get by without being killed, especially when CPS and the court system had failed you!
Amen.
It’s clear she was afraid to tell him. She feared him, and it was better for her and her baby to go along to get along. He was a controlling and manipulative man, and it’s so clear to me she was a victim of emotional abuse. She’s a DV survivor, and it was self-defense. His lawyer seems to be crossing professional and personal boundaries, and his cousin was hitting on her.
In her testimony in the cross she declared that she told him multiple times
Well said.
What a RUDE cut-off of the cousin!! Delay the “experts” and let the guy FINISH. Terrible form! 😖👎
I don't yet have an opinion on her guilt vs innocence, I'll wait to watch the trial. The only thing I've heard so far that stands out to me is that she says he had never been physically violent before the incident that led to her allegedly having to defend herself. Mentally/emotionally yes, but not physical. So why was she so convinced he would go so far as to seriously harm her in that moment? It will be interesting to hear all evidence in this case.
My ex was emotionally, psychologically & financially abusive for 13 yrs until one day it actually hit me, that was the day I made him leave the house!! He would throw things & punch holes in the walls to frighten me and intimidate me!! Abuse does continue to escalate so I can see maybe that happened but I’m watching the trial before I give an opinion on her guilt or innocence!
@@angelabiery-jones5556I’m sorry, glad you are safe now.
But he shot the ceiling and punched the wall, I gather?
I've been watching the trial. Yes, he shot the ceiling during an argument, punched their dog, threw their cat, punched the wall. She googled "How to co-parent with an abuser" 4 or 5 months before the shooting ... but they won't allow this information in as evidence (so far). I can see now why she may have been afraid of him and thought he could harm her.
ETA - He was also NOT shot in the back as previously reported. Main bullet entered his right pec at somewhat of an angle.
I may be a savage but I feel no empathy for a man who met a woman more than 20 years his junior that he married 13 days later and bankrolled for years before she tired of him. The price is high when you play with fire.
👍 agree, 1,000%...like duhhhh, I cannot believe they don't see this stuff.. This should be common sense..
that and his crazy eyes told me everything, well him punching through a wall, and shooting a gun in anger inside the house also gave me no empathy lol
30 years younger...a gold digger...they're everywhere
@@Hoolie24 and his first wife that died is suspect
@@mariamiliotis He meets this gold digger even before he killed his wife for her they made a plan telling everyone she meet him in Trump rally
Shame on her and her mom to put that 6 year in an adult situation. Most moms wouldn't even want their child's face out there.
Another man taken out, for wanting to be a good dad.
No comparison.
He was not a good man, his own daughter confirmed he was abusive: he shot a hole in the ceiling in a bout of anger, he also punched a hole in the wall. There's nothing good or excusable about any of that.
She is a real piece of work, a Master manipulator. She tried to keep Doug from seeing his daughter the legal rout and when the judge saw through her, she killed him. This is pure evil
Seems to me she just wanted a child, his money but not him. It's silly to wonder why she was acting this way and did what she did. It's common sense, this happens often. Black Widow not Swan.
You’re opinion seems very surface based with a lot of presumptions. Not saying I agree either way but do we know enough yet?
@@esmith8676
Maybe they watched the stand your ground hearing a year ago...
Good evening from San Diego. God bless Eva .. who lost both of her parents justice for Doug Benefield!! So sad 😢He was a military veteran as well.
And thought with his middle wicket
@@Kdeakin2615 yes he made a grave mistake but he didn’t deserve what she did to him. Your comment is futile
@@pjSoCal23 I didn’t say he deserved anything 🤬 Get a grip because if anyone’s useless it’s you …lump!! .
ashley had another boyfriend she betrayed Doug
Let's see this man punched their dog in the face so hard he knocked it out, shoots bullets into the ceiling to get her attention, and is a stalker who psychologically abused her and put tracking devices on her car. OF COURSE she was trying to get away from him!!
💯
Was he like thus with his first wife . If not then i would assume she drove him to act this way
I’m not convinced that the frightened, doe caught in the headlights demeanour that’s she’s trying very hard to convey, will serve her well. Her actions, manipulations and lies are telling a whole other story. I think she’s as guilty AF.
AF
Seems so.
Her DV afwaid act aren't flying. I wouldn't go pick up my stuff from their house without a "witness". Shenanigans on her mom too. Taking the kid to the park. Dead men don't speak... so it's all in her accounting
Poor daughter losing both parents 😢
Only a Narcissistic person marries in such a quick short time.
Not agree!
If so, he will have to be narcissist too!
I don’t think either one had/has a balanced personality; any criticism about the rushed marriage and very intentional pregnancy applies to both of them.
@@SometimesPerplexed Absolutely
Trying to "nail down the relationship" before the mask slips.
Damn, this doctor spelled it put for me 100%. I was wondering why she said and did everything she did, from the ballet studio to the first accusations, all the way to the murder.
you people draw conclusions you obviously have no idea what it’s like to be afraid of a guy who won’t take No for an answer he abused her had a very bad temper
prisons talent show just got an upgrade
prison pirouette lessons will begin soon 😂
I’m off track here but both these ppls eyes are bonkers.. it’s like they have fake dolls eyes 👀 man they both give me the creeps ( their eyes)
💯💯💯💯💯💯
Same
Bunch of idiots putting the little girl outside
He got completely rolled. Talk about a sap.
He was vulnerable. Just lost his wife. Sap? That’s how you see it?
The fact that she tried to deny the man visitation - mere visitation.. - of his own child is all the proof the jury needed in this case. I can't believe they didn't convict here for 2nd degree murder. Cause that's what is was.
I like Tommy he seems smart well spoken and helpful
She had a plan from her pregnancy on. Not even telling the father that the baby was born, in my opinion, discredits all her future child abuse allegations. I think she's incredibly selfish.
Sounds like the killer ballerina was playing mind games with him. Playing mind games is bad enough but when a child is involved that'll make it 100 times worse. Literally using their child as a pawn. Probably made this guys like an emotional roller coaster only to end up taking his life at the end. Now the poor kid has no father or mother.
Another bloke sucked in bye following his head, just not the one on top of his shoulders
I work at a restaurant that Doug and Ashley were regulars at and they signed out wall "Ashley Doug and Emerson" and after she killed Doug she came in a long time after with another man and ordered the same drink she would always get with Doug and her and this new man went and sat on our porch in the same exact seats her and Doug would sit in for hours together we knew them pretty well because they were here almost every day and would hang out from 4-7pm
eeew scary
A black widow, surely. Wow
Creepy!
Like a scene from a horror movie.
Evidently she never loved Doug at all. How could you even visit that same restaurant, let alone same table, same seats... Gives me worst feeling in pit of my stomach.
Ladies, if a man 30 years your senior love bombs you and tries to sweep you off your feet and proposes in 4 days and or encourages marriage short of two weeks time, run. He was only able to hold out for 3 months before he showed his true colors. And she was already married to him. There is enough corroboration of Ashley Benefield's side that I believe she is not guilty by reason of self-defense. Doug was an abuser and a violent man. And anybody who will punch a dog and knock it out like Doug did is a bad person. Anybody calling her a gold digger has it mixed up. He was the one who sought to steal her youth and dignity. He would have killed her if she didn't kill him. When you're trying to extricate yourself from a relationship with a serious narcissist / possibly psychopath, you are at most risk of losing your life. Not guilty by reason of self defense. He had told her she was done. He was going to kill her.
Yes!
Men, if a woman 30 years, your junior convinces you to marry her within 13 days, you need to speak to a psychologist about your vulnerabilities and get the hell away from that woman.
Not only is Ashley’s story not credible, her accusations of abuse were such blatant lies that the family court judge not just told her she wasn’t credible, but said that there was not an iota of credibility about it.
There was no evidence that was violent or an abuser.
The only “evidence” that he punched a dog is the statement of a murderer with a track record of lying. He stated all he did was push the dog off his lap.
He did not tell her he was done. He was hoping to reconcile. They wanted to withdraw from the divorce proceedings _and the judge refused to let him until he saw the results of the psychological evaluation of her and she killed him before he could see those_ She told him that she wanted to reconcile, and she asked him to come with a U-Haul to get her and her things, she invited him into the gated community, which is the only way he could’ve gotten in there, and she sent her mother and child away when he was due to arrive _something no abused woman afraid of a violent abuser would ever do_
It’s not healthy to have guns be such a part of life. Huge factor for me in this case.
She looks like she is on drugs. The dark circles look like makeup. I think Ashley is guilty of murder and had this all planned out. Unfortunately for Doug, he met her during a vulnerable time in his life and she used that to hook him in 13 days. I'm sure she did anything and everything to "comfort" him. I feels so sad for Doug's older daughter and the trauma she has endured with both her parents dying.
If she got away with it this gold digging 25 year old would have be financially set. But she didn't. Justice served.
Felt so sorry for the daughter just now. She loses her mother then her father gets killed by Ashley. Then she had to face the world on tv. She looked so scared…. Poor Angel.
That "dr" is wack. "She was driving him crazy." is not something ANYONE trained in psych would say.
This woman is full of mind 20:23 manipulation. I don’t think she gave him a fair chance to be a dad. And most certainly didn’t deserve to die . 🙏🏼 for truth and justice to prevail.
Please stop
Using that image of Doug whom she killed and her smiling
& her ballet pic
Use her Handmaiden look from today
Poor daughter of Doug! She lost her mother, then Doug and Ashley build a turmoiled life together. Then Eva’s dad murdered.
What happened to 15 year old Eva during this mess? Where did she live? Who cared for her?
Everyone is consistently referring to their child as ‘’her daughter’’ when the child is ‘’their daughter’’! It makes me feel sick.
It angers me to see a little girl being cruelly abuse in this way. Where are the authorities?
Her mom is an accomplice and needs to be charged as well. She took the baby “for a walk” miraculously right before Ashely decided to kill Doug . It was planned
And stayed gone (at the park) for hours? Until after dark.
That baby was 2ish at the time? Still in a stroller. Odd that no one asks more questions abt that...
Ashley wasn't worried abt them coming home to find him on the floor, was she?
She didn't even mention the daughter to neighbors or the cops. BUT there was an attorney that was already waiting at the police station. ?
I haven't followed this case closely, but I think it's entirely possible/probable that she fully expected him to simply give up his pursuit of his daughter at some point.
I'm not buying her defense. Why would she make him think they are reconciling when she had no intention of getting back with him. Playing games with someone's feelings is a horrible thing to do. He had every right to see his child! This child doesn't stand a chance if this woman raises her.....
How much of family court stuff will be allowed in this trial?
It’s manipulative and horrible to have that child out there!😮
She could have (and did) live away from him & could have avoided being around him.
He was the one who kept moving states to be around her. He was an abusive stalker.
@@minilea25
Wait til you hear the text messages.
She could have simply filed for a Divorce, right?
How, how, how can you do this to a young child as a mom and grandma
@@carolavanmeenen9917 I'm just happy her daughter never has to be around this abuser ever again.
@@melsafken764 the text messages were very meh. I really don't feel like the state proved their case beyond a reasonable doubt.
I really believe this was premeditation murder and that little girl shouldn’t be outside a court.
This poor man and his daughter she's evil
She drove him nuts. I can imagine what that man endured dealing with a narcissistic-psychopath. I learned the hard way and that is the reason I have been single for long time. THANKS GOD I WAS STRONG ENOUGH TO LOVE MYSELF
I think it's fishy that his first wife died if you have a heart blockage you're going to have symptoms.
Me too I believe Ashley and he actually admitted to some of the things she claimed
The number of people who have died from a widowmaker heart attack with no previous symptoms proves otherwise
@@tyreseforren6721 victims of narcissistic abuse are often manipulated into admitting to things they didn’t do just to keep the peace
Why is the Grandmother and their Baby sent away during the packing and shooting? Who was the driver of the UHAUL TRUCK?
Any parent withholding a child from the other parent is by definition a bad human being. Period. It's parental alienation. One of the most despicable things you can do as a parent, to begin with. Parents who do that are real, true narcissists. Now the grandmother standing outside of court with a six year old child.. It's in line with the previous behaviour. It's emotional abuse. Such a clear case. If the little girl does not get access to her father's family, she is likely to grow up in a web of lies, believing them and rejecting her father and his extended family. It carries on into adulthood, with fundamentally broken realationships. Thanks to the mother and her family.
At first, I felt sorry for her. The more she talks and looks down when answering questions, has me thinking she’s a cold blooded murderer.
This spoiled evil black Swan is 100% guilty she should be punished get life in jail
Speak about DV in HIS 1st marriage.
😮oy, really? lol knew his eyes were super crazy that and him punching through wall and him shooting in the house😂
Parental alienation is evil.
Reversible error. denying a defense to the defense/ accused. Stand you Ground should be for the jury to decide right? and the Accused has a right to present their case, no matter what it is.
I cannot stand the fact they refer to time with children as “time sharing” surely they can come up with better term. Time sharing sound like property. Disgraceful
Time sharing...vacation rental
Quit playing! She knew that wasn’t confidential!!
It seems to me that , she took advantage of him so he could help her with her career and she was not in love with him. She was playing with his feelings and her intentions were just to use him. She told 2 different stories . Why did she not allow to see their baby, she really hated him enough to try to keep their baby away from him. The dad, did make a great effort to travel very far, so he could make up and spent more hours with his daughter. I think he really loved Ashley and his baby. Ashley , seems to be playing lying, playing with his emotions, she never had intentions of moving in with him or even live near them to see her daughter. when she noticed that he tired to mead the love for her, she knew that shooting him would be enough monies left to her or their baby. He made a great effort to be close to his daughter. Sad, she shot him , so he would not defend himself. Why would she not trust her husband, he bought toys for his daughter and was willing to move near his daughter and she took his life away and he will never see his daughters again. Sad. she betrayed him , fooled him, played him.
Not enough evidence from Ashley's antics is being allowed into her murder trial.
I hate when they consider psychologists legit witnesses . You can say anything to them and they write it down as gospel ! Soooooo lame
Who is her boy friend? I'd be scared to date her she sounds crazy
