Thank-you Dr. Hirsch! Finally, the Reid Technique explained by a professional scientist who understands the Scientific Method, as one should, as well as being published in reputable journals and periodicals. Thorough; precise; professional. Dr. Hirsch also explained that the the Reid Technique is beginning to be banned...and this is the coercive, Civil-rights stripping method used for hours upon hours on the defendant...with wild abandon.
Agree...there are innocent people in prison today because of this.
Wonderful witness!!
I agree as well .... what we have to do to protect our selves and loved ones is to teach ALWAYS get an attorney from the beginning. Police detectives especially are taught to make us believe that they are there to HELP us. They will tell you the world is flat and it’s going to end in 3....2...1 second so you better tell them what they want or your going to hell. It’s really hard to believe how they will coerce people into things when we’re told they are there to save us. We want to believe they will not lie. Bottom line... 3~DONT TALK
2~CALL AN ATTORNEY
1~JUST LISTEN
It's actually banned in Canada and other countries.
@@cocochannel8932
It's not banned in Canada. It's actually not banned in any country.
Some countries won't allow lying to a suspect, though...In some countries, like Canada, you are not allowed to misrepresent evidence...
Professor Hirsch is probably the best witness I have ever seen!!
The defense team is spot on. Very impressed. This professor said exactly what most people with a brain already knew regarding the second interrogation.
Lock up the investigators!
Especially the female in the second interrogation! Holding Skylar's hand...Texting while Skylar is sobbing...That woman was horrible!!
@@veegee916 although I think this girl is guilty, I don't agree with the way the 2nd interrogation was handled, but you mentioned the woman was texting while Skylar was sobbing and if I remember correctly she said she was texting the other officer/detective (can't recall his title), bc she couldn't leave the room and he was gone for quite awhile and Skylar was also wondering where her dad was and if the officer was talking to him and/or getting him for her, and bc Skylar was also wanting to know if she was going home with her parents or going to jail when she left there that day, and woman told her she wasn't able to say or determine that and that they had to wait til he came back. Im pretty sure I remember the woman specifically saying "I'm texting him but..." So as bad as that interrogation was, I don't think that particular part of the interview says anything negative about that lady...I'm sure there are various other parts of the interview where that lady's actions/words, etc should be called out for being an a-hole.
@@emoliver80
Thank you! I may be wrong about the texting and I appreciare being called out on It...I think the most telling part is when the female detective said her own mother had died, Skylar immediately lifted her head to look at the lady...This showed me she had empathy...
This is the most interesting witness so far.
Yes!! I could've listened to him all day instead of the "Umm, umm" doctor! 😂
The bottom line...if you are questioned by the police...KEEP SILENT AND DEMAND TO KNOW IF YOU ARE UNDER ARREST, IF YOU ARE NOT --- LEAVE IMMEDIATELY!! IF YOU ARE, DEMAND AN ATTORNEY AND KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT!! The police are not your friend under this circumstance.
Skylar liked other children, just didn’t want one of her own. Not sure why they keep bringing this up. I’m the opposite. I like my children, but not others. Lol.
She knows a still born baby doesn't cry, she knows a still born baby doesn't move it's arms, she knows a still born baby doesn't gurgle! She would not say a still born baby did any of this even after questioning. Still born is dead! A white baby could be a baby covered in mucus cover, the sound of gurgling very well could be she did not clear the baby's airways of mucus that a nurse would do for a baby after birth. Then baby still for sometime will choke and gag on mucus in it's airway.The mom has to help the baby when this occurs. This young lady had said before questioning she could not have this baby. This young lady hid this baby, (pregnancy). This young lady chose to have birth in bedroom, bathroom and not call for help by her parent's, not call 911. Tell me did questioning caused her to do this? What was she going to do when this baby came? What was this young lady going to do when baby cried? Remember she could not have this baby before this young lady was questioned? This baby never had a chance. This young lady had no compassion when she buried it without as much as a towel to dignify it. This young lady went about her life about how great she was going to look and working on being thin again, all before questioning. This young lady was said to lie and lie a lot, said by her parent's. This young lady did not want to tell the truth.
You're exactly right. this young lady is a self absorbed, manipulative, conniving murderer who planned on snuffing her baby out the day she realized that she was pregnant. Every time I hear her call the baby Annabell I cringe. It's an obvious ploy to project her 'love' for this baby she detested. I bet she abused the poor baby her entire pregnancy by punching her stomach hoping to cause a miscarriage...
Just because this young lady doesn’t cut a particularly sympathetic figure, one cannot automatically conclude that she is guilty of having killed her infant.
Wow life I completely agree with everything you have just said!! Skylar was not able to ever tell her mother because mum told her a baby would be the end of her life as she knew it. Skylar could never tell her boyfriend because HE was not the father and she didn’t want to lose him.
She had made no preparations for the birth of this baby! Where she would go to give birth? No bedding, no clothes, nappies, no bottles or any information on breastfeeding, no postnatal necessities such as pads or nursing bras! Seriously what was she going to do?
How lucky was she to have a stillborn baby?! Now all she had to do is get rid of all the evidence by burying the baby in the backyard.
She knew the place and was confident in covering up the burial site with a potted plant.
Following all this drama Skylar set about “normalising” her life and was obviously anxious to include her mother! Who was sooo “proud” of her little girl for losing so much weight!! If Skylar had never gone back to the same OBGYN clinic and spewed a confession of sorts to the Dr. this may have gone unnoticed. This whole story is tragic on every level 🥺
Agree!!!
I don’t think you get the point of this man’s testimony
Wow, the professor was another effectively powerful witness for the defense. The prosecution could not do anything to refute him.
Lol bullshit!
Agreed!! The defense is flawless!
Oooohhh.... Dr. Hirsch is goooood. I didn't think he talked too fast and he was super interesting to listen to.
Wow this dude is good.... I love understanding clear into 😊
This guy wasn't cheap. The Richardson's must have mortgaged the house for this trial. If Skylar is found guilty, there won't be anything left for an appeal.
@cubomania3
You're an asshole...
Yeah, I bet their families had to help, too...This is ugly all the way around!
The judge is letting a lot in so if she is found guilty, I'm not sure what the grounds would be. But folks think because they own a house with a backyard, they must be millionaires! Unbelievable vilification of folks who work for a living! And plenty of people raise their kids with personality disorders, not just "rich" people.... It's said poor people get viewed badly in these cases. I'd argue that "rich" people get treated badly also. They are calling for her head! Her BLONDE head!!
🙄
@cubomania3 WOW.
They may have spent a pretty blonde penny on this...But its sadly to say they havent proven beyond a reasonable doubt that the baby was alive when it was born. So sad.
Wait till you see the psychologist’s testimony next!! The prosecutor- as hard as she might- couldn’t break the man. He held his own, didn’t waver, calmly and professionally (unlike her) stood his ground about his expert opinions ... And I guarantee she regrets questioning him for as long as she did!
I predict...
~~ NOT GUILTY ~~
quick decision
I love this little nerdy doctor. He’s very believable.
Excellent testimony by Professor Alan Hirsch...
VERDICT: NOT GUILTY. Reasonable doubt has not been overcome.
I second that.
Really, if dead baby mama is not guilty, why did she do internet searches in how to get rid of a baby and then bury her baby in her backyard????
80s Lady
I third that!!
@@carolmahoney2109 They won't answer you. These feminist morons think since she's a pretty little teenage girl who cries, she is incapable of doing anything wrong. Now her lawyer is claiming she was "sexually abused" and has "personality disorder" as a cop out. How pathetic right? 🙄
I 4th it!
The happiness she texted, selfie she shared, shortly after she buried her baby naked in the cold, Not even wrapped in a towel is hard to swallow 😓
They doesn't prove the baby wasn't stillborn. Just making it up because you don't like her?
Totally agree. It's horrendous !
@@kelleylynch7256 lol making it up because "you don't like her?" That was cute. You must be one of Skylar's friends or something...maybe even younger.. I'm going to guess you're about 12?
Ellen Marie O no maybe she just has an opinion that differs from yours. I agree with her and I’m not 12 or related. God really?
I agree 100 percent most people seem to think she should be given an award for Mom of the year lmao
She confessed BEFORE any interrogation happened .she told the doc what she did. defense is reaching far now. When her parents came in she burst out her revelation with NO prompting.
Although I find his testimony compelling ,I do not believe it applies to Skyler.
tina towns exactly. The confession was first to doctor.
Good call, Tina towns, good call!!!!!
She confessed that the baby was STILLBORN to her doctor, so by your terms we must believe that!
She confessed that she buried a stillborn baby in her backyard. Abuse of a corpse . She is being tried for murder.
I just re watched doctor Boyce's day 1 of this trial and she says Skylar was sobbing and said she had it alone and that she buried it in the backyard.. defence asks her at end of her testimony and she doesn't use the word stillborn just that it was dead.
I personally think the Reid Technique is useful and relevant. Watch the Chris Watts Interrogation. Then watch the RUclips Channel “Jim Can’t Swim” as he describes the use of the Reid Technique in both the Chris Watts and the Russell Williams interrogations.
Susan ~> I’ve seen it. I have posted against the Reid Technique for quite awhile. It is a violation of one’s Civil
Rights. Feel free to think it’s useful, but I am not abdicating my Constitutional Rights, namely Due Process. Thanks for your take.
hollywoodjaded - I appreciate your opinion. I’ve never been arrested, but if I am all I plan to say is “Lawyer, Lawyer, Lawyer.” It’s only the idiots who waive their Constitutional Rights and sign off on the Miranda warning that get interrogated and that’s where the technique is useful.
@@SusieW-ku4ub
I think the Russell Williams interrogation was brilliant!!
Vaughn Greenlee - I agree! Jim Smyth is a brilliant police officer!
@@SusieW-ku4ub
And I don't think Mr. Smyth had to lie to Williams...He just slowly helped Williams hang himself! Never calling him "Colonel" and moving into his personal space was textbook! That case disturbed me. I read that one of the doctors who saw all the photos actually had PTSD so bad that he had to resign from his position...
They defence has put on excellent case
Defence attorney sounds like jack Nicholson and the professor sounds like Raymond Romano from everyone loves Raymond.
Let the wheels of Justice "do there work" - regardless whether you are innocent or guilty; wouldn't all of you want the "opportunity" for a fair trial before they throw the key away on you ? Unless you were there when all this went down, you can chew your tongues with each other. Unless all of you are "perfect" human beings & have never made any mistakes when you we're all young; I suggest holding off throwing all of your stones & boulders @this family UNLESS you've NEVER made any mistakes in your life at all. Let ye who has NEVER sinned, cast the 1st stone. Be careful when you JUDGE OTHERS without knowing all the information yet, for God will be JUDGING you. Just saying...
Julia Bradfield ain't about God.
Just know, when you Judge without Knowing "all the facts"; unless you we're right there - that's "all your doing - Is Judging. Besides a normal healthy baby is born bluish / purple until it gurgles. Know from working in a hospital. Skylar's was an unhealthy pale white (typical of a stillborn). If she really didn't care, she could have just thrown the baby away in the trash. She buried the baby with a marker.
No way guilty..... this cannot be determined without reasonable doubt .. We have no evidence to prove she was alive .. And all these lies about being set on fire .. may she rest in piece .💜
She said it
sr was not forced to confess. Infact I don't believe we have the full truth of what happened to the baby.
I still find it so convenient the baby was stillborn after all her actions at concealing and refusing to accept the pregnancy.
Sorry for you.
I’m surprised her eating disorder isn’t brought up more in relation to what you’re saying. This baby would’ve been extremely mal -nourished. I’m not a professional on any of this , though I have to wonder about other pregnancy while anorexic and the results of those pregnancies.
Also the baby wasn't supposed to come so soon.
Does anyone know if they're not in court today bc of 9/11 or? I have been watching it stream LIVE on court tv, then going back and watching this channel on parts may habe missed, but can't find it anywhere now
Danielle Henry they still had court
Hirsh was a really good witness. I wish we had gotten to hear more from him. I'll probably look into his website
At beginning it was stated that hosp tried get ahold of her to come bk in, she didnt answer, so they left a message of some sort with Skylers mother.
Did anyone ever bring this up?? I thought this was big but never heard it since day 1??
Anyone please help with this one!
Suzanne Mix I don’t think they called her mother, but they did “accidentally” email the mother. It was briefly talked about during the text message discussion but not much more has been said about it.
I feel bad for her dad.😬
Unbelievable people are trying to question this man.
This is a great witness.
Because the bones were not burned, it doesn't mean the flesh wasn't burned.
That sounds like garbage and there is no evidence of this.
Well it's doesn't prove it doesn't, either way the young lady wouldn't tell the truth. So let's throw that idea out and just go with baby being buried in back yard. Oh, yes still born baby was moving arms, and crying. She could never hav this baby, she said it at the Dr. Office.
@@wowlife2169 I don't think she burnt the baby. I think when they first mentioned burning it I think her reaction was one of the honest answers she had. She seemed shocked when they said it. I may be wrong but imo.
@@pennyarmstrong1232 I don't think she burned the baby either, but I do think she killed the baby. Unfortunately, bc of the one woman who initially said the baby had been burned and then redacted that conclusion, Skylar could walk free bc that caused the police to use that in the 2nd interview with Skylar.... They believed what they were told by the examiner and therefore did their job by trying to get an admission out of her, and then it turns out she was wrong and it basically throws everything else for the prosecution out the window bc that made them all look really bad. It's unfortunate.
There was testing at the gravesite there were NO accelerants or sign of a fire...
I love this witness. He's basically the only one they needed to call.
Great Judge
Im sure someone else has said this but,
The fractures found on the skull would , might be result from baby falling in toilet and hitting head on both sides exactly where fractures were??
Suzanne Mix the forensic pathologist determined the fractures were lost death. Also newborns skulls are not fused (that’s why they have soft spots) so as they decay the skulls fall to pieces.
How do they ensure that the jury does not seek outsourced information??? If they are staying at home with family and friends.
They don’t know. But if a juror does that and the court finds out, then it’s grounds for possible mistrial.
Oh really, with all the electronica today? Hard to believe it is possible to do.
Judge is on point 💪🏽
The prosecution cannot let this burning idea go... good lord!!!! They know that detail being proven false has ruined their whole case.
can't stand this smug defense attorney!
Cuz he's good and he's right!!
When is her mother testifying ?
Why would her mother testify? She didn't witness anything?
They said she’s not allowed in the courtroom because she is going to testify. It was brought up when Skylar’s Father testified.
Kelley Lynch ^*
She was subpoenaed by the prosecution, but they decided not to call her. The prosecution has already rested.
Why was he not allowed to analyze the actual confession?
That's disturbing.
The judge wouldn't allow it, unfortunately
@@DandyBeingTandi Because it paints the girl in a bad light. 🙄 Can't do that, now can we?
@@kelleylynch7256 So, using confessions as evidence is not allowed because you say so now? 🙄 Don't ever work for a court. You'd be letting criminals free left and right since you seem to believe that confessions aren't evidence and that confessions somehow "take rights away".
The defense team is crushing it !!
Dr. White was destroyed. But, this witness is a positive for the defense.
BBH101 dr white was great. Had the state talking in circles. He was nervous but he never backed down and made great points. Blow holes all in the state’s case.
“Oh no we aren’t going to judge you”
we are going to charge you and a judge and jury will judge you”
THE BEST WITNESS 😭😭😭🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I love this guy🥰
I’m not sure the prosecution can climb out of this hole. I think they’re in trouble.
Why
Really? I think it's the opposite.
And belong in prison.
i think what the defendant doesn't realize, is that if her baby was in fact stillborn, she could have went to her parents once the baby was born. what's done is done and the baby is gone. she would have been in the same situation as before. i'm sure she would have gotten in trouble, but far less since she has no baby to care for. obviously she would have just continued taking birth control, go to college and enjoy her "boss" body with all the men she wanted to be desired by.
BUT...not if she actually killed the baby, or even accidentally caused her death. common sense dictates that it would have been investigated, or even slightly looked into; and the truth would be revealed. surely she must have known this.
she hid the pregnancy because she clearly NEVER intended to keep the child or even try to find suitable parents to adopt her out to.
Oh my goodness, this girl must sit!
I don't understand why some people do not think Skylar should be held accountable for what she did.
BBH101 because it hasn’t been proven.
Because in a US court of law, the State has an obligation to prove that Skylar is guilty. They emphatically haven’t done that.
She is (as I type)..(and for the past 2yrs) held accountable. She is facing a jury of her peers. Her life has been turned upside-down. That is accountability too. This will cost her and her family hundreds of thousands of dollars. Her reputation (regardless of acquittal) is destroyed. Her actions, details of her sex life, home life and mental health will forever live on RUclips.
So while she likely won’t spend decades in prison, there is and has been some accountability.
I don’t condone this girl’s actions whatsoever, but I can’t say one way or another that she did/didn’t kill that baby. The more I got to know her through her character witnesses, the more I err on the side of her being wildly negligent- but not a murderer.
She’ll pay for what she’s done/didn’t do for the rest of her life. It was HER BABY - wanted or not- She’ll never forget. She won’t forget that night and she certainly won’t forget the images of her baby’s bones. She *will suffer over that - even if she didn’t think she would.
A large % of women carry years of depression and guilt after aborting an unwanted pregnancy (even in very early stages). Imagine what Skylar will feel in later life.
Jen Kelly love your style 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 agree 100%👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Jen Kelly well said Jen. I agree with all that you eloquently stated.
Gemma Grace
thank you for saying that ☺️
It's being twisted in away you could argue makeing her the victim the victim was the baby that was treated like an in confidence to her perfect supposedly figure and princess life the bottom line is she buried a baby not even covering it up was disrespectful and cold cruel.surely she could gone to another authority figure even in her extended family at school seen help
Where are todays videos!!!!!!!
Life With Duchenne exactly!!!!,!! So frustrating!!!!!
Who thought that a False confession/ Coercion allegation wouldn't come up? Defense lawyers are really something else. However, if it were my family member Id want them to pull all the stops too. I feel the mother should be held responsible to a degree.
Its nice when you get a 'real' expert like Alan Hirsh. So many times courts will have an 'expert' who has a degree but really is kind of a pathetic 'expert' this guy is the real deal.
I’ve got no reasonable doubts at this point. Guilty.
The witness said skylar was 16 or 17 the defence then changed it to 17 or 18 ….
I believe the Reid method should be band. Although IQ has a big part to play I would love to know hers.
Wee Annie banned, not band.
Trek1960 John Doe Autocorrect does crazy things at times.
Trek1960 John Doe 🙏
Lol I’m a professor who does part time work as lurch from the Addams family .. and it takes me three days to open a water bottle …..
that defence attorney should be able to afford a hair transplant after the money he will be making from this trial
??? Really
kitty love what an absolute dumb thing to say. Superficial and a complete bozo.
Ok Stupid
I’m only 14 mins in but I want them to ask THIS guy how much he’s being paid to be there, lol. This is a breath of fresh air after the last doctors 65 hours on the stand.
I can hardly stand to look at her "poor me"...." I don't know anything" act. She's repulsive! All the while she's laughing at everyone because they believe her fake a** story. These stupid defense lawyers even ended up giving her a job at their firm. Lol. Creepy
Leanna please state your name …. Doh !
I'm low key afraid of this witness.
It shows what money can do it is so many people in prison that shouldn't be in prison or been there for 17 18 and 20 years and they realize they didn't do it
Her naivety
Is NOT an act
also not an excuse...
A good character witness knows you longer than 10 months for goodness sake. But nice try.
Unfortunately cases like this will probably occur more as the new generation are not learning empathy from their parents. It’s all me, me, me and there is no discipline at home or at school. I despair.
You missed the point. The problem with Skylar is that her parents, especially her mother don't have empathy at all. She demanded from her daughter to follow alone her - the mother's - dreams of a certain lifestyle.
The defense may have finally got a half way decent witness, but even he will not be able to explain away why if this isn't criminal why this thing buried her own baby in her backyard.
Mummy and daddy got money so I suppose there little princess will get away with it and they can go on to live there fake shallow lives she hasn't even cried she didn't care only about getting away with it
*Bunk*
So you worked with her 3 days a week and she wouldn’t kill a bug - that equates to her not being able to kill a human lol the bug didn’t pose a threat to her whole life did it !! The baby did
Not guilty
Why?? Cuz she's a cute little blonde girl? She admitted to her parents what she did.
@@biohazardtrash1357 lol What is this.. Some kind of pre-emptive strawman fallacy? We have this test in criminal trials called "beyond a reasonable doubt," and if the prosecution comes up short, then the verdict is not guilty. The prosecution has utterly disappointed in this case.
@@michaeledwards1664 That's just your opinion, the trial isn't over. She killed her own child.
Blanche Devareaux
She admitted to her parents that she cremated the baby with a bic lighter.
Babies are not flammable. They’re mostly all water.
North95 I still think she misspoke when she said cremate. I think she meant buried the baby. And the. The interviewer jump all over it.
Then there was a mistake about the bones and they have never let it go.
Awwwww she has more feelings for a bug than she did for her own baby. How sweet
Where's the mother at? She probably too embarrassed to show since she was so quick to say in the interrogation room, "What will the neighbors think?" 🤬🤢😱🤯🥺
Her mother, Kim 🙄, has not been permitted in the courtroom because she is under subpoena and is expected to testify for the prosecution.
Panda Kids TV I heard that too but the prosecution rested so can they still call her? she was in there yesterday when her hubby testified.
@@BuckleUpButtercup62
Her mother was NOT in the courtroom! Her mother is blonde, not gray haired...The prosecution can put her on as a rebuttal witness but she would have to rebut someone's prior testimony and I'm not sure who that would be...
Shirley Fields really? Why are you hating on the mom? She did nothing wrong and if you have watched the entire trial like I did, and others should do too, before you comment or judge. Skylar’s mom was called as aa witness for the defense, because of what she thought as a mom was encouraging her daughter. I’m a mom to a teenager who had an earring disorder, and honestly, you’ll say or do just about anything for your child when you as a mom feel their child is struggling. I can’t imagine as a mom not being able to be there with her child during a trial like this. FYI, her mom was there every day, waiting outside the courtroom and as soon as the defense didn’t need her confession, you will see her later on sitting next to her husband in the trial. Not guilty!
This doddering fool of a defence is sooo annoying SMH
How much water do you need to lie!
Noela Richardson who’s lying?
Not guilty
