Marcellus Williams' execution: What the evidence reveals | Dan Abrams Live
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 сен 2024
- In the past 24 hours, media coverage has focused on Marcellus Williams, who was convicted of fatally stabbing former newspaper reporter Felicia Gayle in 1998. Williams was executed by lethal injection in Missouri but both prosecutors and Gayle's family have questioned his conviction. Dan Abrams agrees that if there was any doubt, the execution should have been delayed. However, he says the media often overlooks the evidence that led to the conviction. Geraldo Rivera and former prosecutor Randy Zelin, who still believes the conviction was justified, join NewsNation's "Dan Abrams Live" to discuss.

@@charitymillang5023 what does that have to do with the fact that he’s a convicted murder? Lost every appeal for a 26 year period?every single of those people was racist and wanted to kill an innocent black man… nah fam. This dude had 15 prior felony convictions. He bragged about stabbing that woman 43 times, there was evidence to convict him and he took an Alford plea, he was guilty. You can argue against the death penalty, but can’t argue that he was innocent. For me it’s good riddance, he deserves hell

"Don't you believe in the criminl justice system!?"
As a juror.. no. I learned powerful lessons in that box that haunt me to this day. This system is a railroad disguised as a vetting process.
Look at the delphi murder case with Rick Allen and the Karen Read case, for examples.
DNA technology and testing before trial did not examine “touch DNA," based on standard techniques and practices at the time. Additionally, subsequent DNA testing has never exonerated Williams.
Williams has a robust criminal history, including 15 felony convictions in addition to offenses related to Ms. Gayle's murder: robbery (2), armed criminal action (2), assault (2), burglary (4), stealing (3), stealing a motor vehicle, and unlawful use of a weapon, which is all consistent with entering the home, attacking Ms. Gayle, and taking her items.
Williams confessed the murder to his girlfriend soon after committing his horrific crime once his girlfriend found Ms. Gayle’s purse in Williams’ car, but he also threatened to kill her and her family if she told anyone, readily explaining why his girlfriend did not approach law enforcement until Williams was in custody.
The girlfriend never requested the reward for information about Ms. Gayle’s murder, despite claims that she was only interested in money.
When speaking with law enforcement, the jailhouse informant provided information about the crime that was not publicly available, yet consistent with crime scene evidence and Williams’ involvement.
Other individuals were present when Williams bragged about this murder, and they were disclosed to Williams’ team before trial and have been discussed in subsequent proceedings.
Gayle’s personal items were found in the trunk of Williams’ car.
Williams sold Ms. Gayle’s husband’s laptop to another individual who later identified Williams as the seller.
Williams’ disrespect for others’ well-being and aversion to order have continued in prison, including attacking other inmates and threatening correctional officers.
@@ConcealedCourier when it comes to this monster, yes I do.
Wait, people ACTUALLY believe in the criminal justice system.
We have serial killers who will live out their lives in prison.
Because those states don't execute murders smh. I always use Wisconsin as point of reference look how many serial killers, mass murders and homicidal wack jobs are produced in that state. And they all live long and healthy lives no way is that okay. Do you think Darrell Brooks or even a Jeffrey Dahmer who if he wasn't beaten to death would have still been alive to this day deserve to live? Or what about Stephen Sterns who SA'd a 14 year old girl and then murdered her in her own home whose facing death penalty charges. Should he have the opportunity to live out his life? What about Chad Daybell who murdered 2 kids and his wife he should just wait it out in jail as well right? Utter madness smh. Like Denzel quoted from man on fire "forgiveness is between them and God, it's my job to arrange the meeting". The process played out and justice was served
UNTIL A BLEEDING HEART PETITIONS THE GOVERNOR...
Only 21 states have the death penalty.
@@hilriekemp Damn... this guy knows his serial killers 🤣🤣
@@skybirdnomad He killed that poor woman because he was an animal.
Why don’t you have the defendant’s attorney and the prosecutor on your show? Pretty sure they have more actual info than your and your guests’ speculations.
Absolutely 💯
Because the defense attorney and the prosecutor already provided both sides...and 12 people gave him the death penalty
Because they're biased and some of us actually want to hear the facts of the case, not a load of tripe
Check out 1 minute remaining podcasts they interviewed the attorney and he gave a run down of the case and it was bias as hell. Firstly the removal of 6 black jurors leaving 1:10 black jury and secondly omitting th testimony of the guy that bought the laptop saying Williams was selling the laptop on behalf of his girlfriend.
@@AmericanWarlord526 What makes you say they were biased?

“You either believe in the criminal justice system or you don’t” - I think that’s the problem here… a lot of us don’t at this point.
That being said, I think this was a nuanced and respectful discussion of a difficult and complex issue
If they found evidence that could over turn his case they should have delayed their execution, until they gave him a chance in court to try and show his innocence.
They did do that, he was still guilty

Believe in physical evidence, not words
Except the words matched the physical evidence. People that couldn't have been there were able to tell the police details about the scene that only the murderer could have know, and Marcellus Williams is the one that told them. We behave like there wasn't a whole court case that went over all of this.

@dmiconsulting oj didn't get charged for a crime he did commit and was later found guilty in civil Court. Marcellus didn't have a chance
"You either believe in it or you don't..."
Yeah, I'm sorry, I really don't. The court system makes tons of mistakes DAILY. I wouldn't trust them to know their asshole from their fingertip, because they'll try to convince and gaslight you that they both smell like strawberry.
The fact that Randy didn't answer the DNA question at the End says alot, how in the hell do you defend a flawed system
Because there may have been several people over at the victim Alicia’s house to leave hair and even the police officers fingerprint was on the knife. But by the time he was sentenced Marcellus was already doing a 20 year sentance for doing an armed robbery of innocent people in a donut shop. He was a professional armed robber with a very long criminal record. Ofc he knew to wear gloves when he merr derr ed Alicia. When he broke into her house she was showering. He could have simply stolen her stuff and moved on but he went in shower and ended her. The media keeps saying it was his ex gf whom”said” Marcellus’ stuff was in his car. That’s not the whole story. The police did “retrieve” Alicia’s stolen belongings from th backseat of his car AND her purse from his trunk. Also erroneous for them to say his gf should have been a suspect. Alicia was staa bbed like 39 times, once right in the head. Believe me that WAS NOT done by a woman. I feel the dame as Zelin here. It hurts the heart, but after 11 court hearing and Supreme Court hearing there was no evidence of his innocence. I disagree with using capital punishment at all on anyone, but right now we need to think about the victim Alicia. Imagine how scary it must have been to ger merr derr ed in her own home while showering. Defenceless. Her husband and fam will never see her again. ALL merr derr ers of women say they are innocent. They have brain issues that say they’re innocent. ALL OF THEM. One court of judge could make mistakes but not whole jury and 12 courts over 25 years. They’re NOT ALL id jits. Time to move on. Shame on media channels that don’t tell the truth about this case and gloss over facts to get ppl excited clicking viewing and crying. Shame. There’s an NPR written article posted now tho that tells the deets. And the Wikipedia page for the victim Alicia has some of the deets. The court docs are probably available online too. If someone thinks every court, Justice, prosecutors , over 25 years was corrupt they should dig in and read all the material instead of just getting emotional and angry and jumping to conclusions.
There was no DNA because his MO was to wear gloves, and to pull touch DNA off an item 20 years later off an item that has been handled by 50 different people from a time when touch DNA wasn't a thing is asinine. Lack off DNA doesn't prove anything in a case that didn't require DNA to be built.
@@SolutionsWithin and you have it all wrong. Appeals are not to prove guilt or innocence. Let’s start there. Appeals are to look at if the court made an error or his attorney. If so, it is remanded to the lower court to retry the case.
His criminal history should have established an MO. He’s a thief but is more than that? Did those robberies involve him brutally do what was done to Mrs. Gayle? Did he meet the composite of the perpetrator the medical examiner should have testified to in court? These are all trial questions not questions brought before an appeals court. This is why you don’t go thru with an execution unless all questions have been adequately answered. It’s for him and it’s for the family, prosecutor, and jury to know that a fair trial was given.
He was absolutely guilty
Don’t talk bout it now yall shoulda been talking when he was alive the fuck
Stabbed 43 times is a personal killing, meaning it was someone who either dated her or knew her and hated her enough to decide to stab, stab, stab. Now who would have such a personal grudge of hate???
Or it’s an MO. A women not to far from this victim’s home was killed in a similar way. Williams was in custody at the time.
The girlfriend who gave him or planted that lady's stuff. Setup
@@shelbyanderson3400but then explain how the cell mate had the same story that he did it?
@@crimelaw4053i believe the gf and that inmate were both looking for $10k of info so perhaps he and the gf made it a setup, but at that point i feel like it becomes a he said she said, so its like why trust the words of a criminal?
@@bmo401 wrong… neither got any money for the testimony. The cellmate and the ex had no clue who each other were, why would 2 random people have the same exact account of the murder if he didn’t do it? How did the cellmate magically work with the ex to frame him, eventhough he would have no clear reason or motive to frame him? See there’s no answer for all this and thus 12 different judges thought he was guilty
Stabbed 40 times looks like an over kill to me... maybe just maybe its somebody she knew.. but who knows
It was him. We know it was him. All the evidence got put in front of a jury of 12 people. All of these points were argued in front of juror, and then for 20 years in front of judges.
True. Most women of DV or violent assault/murder know their victims. U.S. stats show this clearly.
Every thought O.J. killed his ex-wife in the '90s. Logically and statistically made sense b/c he was an ex. The likelihood of it being a stranger was not as strong as it being someone she knew.
@@MatthewsSloan10 whites(maga) and 1 black person
@@bmo401 but convictions have to be unanimous, clearly the black person thought he was guilty too
It doesn't matter if he is innocent, it matters if he had a fair trial.
Not a direct quote, but close. And that's disgusting. Absolutely abhorrent.
And this guy talking about believing in the criminal justice system or you don’t. lol that’s a load of crap. Even if you have the best system in the world, the system is run by HUMANS and mistakes happen all the time. He is acting like the Criminal Justice system is always right. We as humans aren’t ALWAYS right, and this undying faith in the system is the wrong way to look at things. Everything must be questioned, that’s the only way improvements happen. That’s a cheap easy answer that doesn’t justify this execution.
You are right, but in this case. The criminal justice system got it right.
@@MatthewsSloan you don’t know that for sure. All I’m saying he should have just been in jail for life or at the very least delayed the execution. If new evidence comes forth that’s in conflict with the old evidence, then the execution shouldn’t have happened until they reviewed the new evidence and come to a new conclusion. I’m not saying the man was innocent. All I’m saying is shouldn’t a change in evidence be cause for pause?
That's not what he meant. Williams was afforded all the opportunities he was supposed to be afforded and didn't produce enough to change the outcome. If we're going to complain and demand the standard be changed from a reasonable doubt to a shadow of a doubt, then we have to apply that to every case. So many cases, probably the majority of cases, would not hold up to a shadow of a doubt standard. You can pretty much always find an explanation that would cast a show of a doubt. It would be the same as getting rid of capital punishment altogether.
They made this case politically motivated and that’s what is a shame here. Plenty of evidence of the DP.
@@BridgKay no political motivation.. he stabbed someone 43 times
No physical evidence was connected to him so how did he get there to commit that murder.
Beyond a reasonable doubt
Nobody gives a damn once you are labeled guilty.
Why didn't they? Technicalities. And coz they don't want to admit fault and open themselves up to (another) lawsuit.
15 felonies is crazy though. It almost seemed like this guy was martyr the way people have been talking about this. I don’t think the death penalty was warranted here, because they didn’t have any proof. But this guy was far from a good person if he had 15 felonies
Im disgusted. What a disgrace! Shame on or judicial system. How sad!😭💔
Nobody cares about the real victim in this. If he didnt do it then who did
The victims family did not want him executed.
@@nicasia3867 but they sat there and worked to sentence Williams to death instead of trying to find the real killer

@@lyjugufugyjkt586...and Marcellus admitted he sold it. But he blames his girlfriend for giving him it to sell. Which means, if you believe that, that his girlfriend broke into a home, stabbed another woman over 40 times, stole the laptop in her house, and gave it to her lover, just to implicate him with murder.
If you think that is plausible, then you need to reexamine human nature.
@@lyjugufugyjkt586 Why did he brag about killing her.
I believe the person who said she found the items in his car should have been investigated.
He should be removed from office
Here's the dumb part of this whole talk.He said as heart tells him that he's wrong, but his head tells him he's right.Does he know that Marcellus girlfriend Gave him the laptop
Does his head tell him all the biological evidence points elsewhere?
Does he know speaking anything other than what the masses wants to hear can get one canceled or labeled.. probably.
Or that she was a drug addict s-x worker that “worked” and slept in that car? Or told her neighbor that she was getting paid to testify? Or that she lied on the stand about her own criminal record? Or that she said she saw deep scratches on Williams from Mrs. Gayle but no material was found under her fingernails?
Ppl need to understand the sequence of events. The female lawyer at the beginning misrepresented the facts.
The jailhouse informant was the only witness who learned about the reward and came forward for the reward. That fact does not make his information invalid. If it did, then no information given after a reward is offered would ever be considered in any investigation. It's a silly argument. But let's continue.
After the fellow inmate got out of jail, he went to the police to give his information and seek the reward money. Upon hearing his story, Marcellus became a suspect and the police went to Marcellus's girlfriend to question her about it.
*SHE DID NOT GO TO THE POLICE FOR REWARD MONEY* . They came to her based on the tip they got from the jailhouse informant. When they questioned her, she explained the day Marcellus picked her up with bloody clothes on under a jacket on a hot day. She explained that she saw a purse in his car and thought he was cheating. Then she alleged that he explained what happened and who the purse belonged to before threatening her to keep quiet.
The laptop was sold 2 days after the murder. The jailhouse informant did not get out and go to thy police until a year later. 2 days after the murder there was no reward money and the GF didn't know the future so she had no reason to sit on her information for a year other than her being afraid of Williams.
To discredit the GF you would have to believe that she participated in a robbery murder in 1998, gave the laptop to Marcellus 2 days later to sell at a pawn shop, and planted 2 items from the victim's purse in his car trunk instead of just planting the whole purse. Then, she did nothing for a year until police came to her with questions about Marcellus.
How does that make sense? What was her angle? Set him up and don't tell anyone unless they come asking? Did she know that almost a year later there would be a reward offered for information if she just sat on the info long enough?
The only person who said the GF gave him the laptop was Marcellus. What is he expected to say? He offered no explanation for the other items found in his trunk.
He did not offer any plausible explanation for his connections to the murder. All his team did was try to cast doubt on the witnesses. They didn't even have a coherent story to explain all these things. That's why his conviction happened and was upheld.
If someone set him up, they did a great job. They left behind no evidence of a set up. No witnesses to any plot, no messages or recorded conversations. No ties between witnesses were ever discovered. No ties to any law enforcement or the victims husband were ever discovered. You can speculate wild theories that would make him innocent. The problem is that none of those theories have evidence to back them up.
My brother in Islam was found guilty. It was a reasonable conviction and upholding it was reasonable in my opinion. I didn't want that for him, and I hope we get a law that says a convict can't be executed if the victims family doesn't want it. But we have no such law and it just is what it is.
So he was a career criminal but evidence doesn’t match him and was given victim’s property. Should have just kept him in prison. This was silly.
Only thing I questioned was how did the victims belongings get in William’s trunk?
Then I also thought it wasn’t of the detectives DNA on the murder weapon. Could they have planted the victims belongings in Williams’s trunk ?
How haha, how did they know what his truck looked like?
You really belive that over a man with 14 felonies being guilty? Ridiculous.
May Allah give him the highest paradise. May Allah forgive him and protect his family. May this nev repeat again. May both the victims be forgiven by the the creator. To him we belong and to him we shall all return.
you can see the sincerity of his words and feel the true devotion to his creator. May Allah rest you in peace

and it was one of them. Not to mention the "prosecutions office" was one man running for office.
They are wrong....
Why would the female suspect try to collect on a reward when she’d already gave the purse and laptop to her boyfriend or left it in there to draw a connection where there wasn’t any since the hair and foot prints didn’t match
She didn't take the reward, she testified on her own fruition. It was offered she declined. What's that tell you?
She didn’t take Alicia’s belongings from Marcellus car. The police came and retrieved them from his back seat and her purse was in his trunk. He was already serving a 20 year sentence for armed robbery.
I keep hearing from all these shows that EVEN the murdered womans family didn't want him executed, what they fail to say is some of the family felt that way and more importantly all of the family thought he was guilty of murdering an innocent woman taking a shower in her own home, a huge difference. The DNA evidence was from the detective and prosecuter touching the knife at a much later time. At the time touch DNA retreval did not exist but not because of some nefarious wrong doing. There was plenty of evidence showing his guilt its just that those opposing the death penality don't want to admit to it because of ideological reasons not the facts that a man who had previously commited 14 crimes some of them violent robberies had brutally murdered a woman while committing a robbery.

testimony against Williams from 22 witnesses. one witness testified Williams confessed while incarcerated. Henry Cole also gave details of the crime that only the perpetrator would have known. the victims purse was found in Williams car by his then girlfriend Lara Asaro. she testified she confronted Williams thinking he was cheating on her, only for him to confess about the murder as his alibi for not cheating. Williams also had possession of the victims husbands laptop which was sold to another corroborating witness and had no alibi to his where abouts during the crime. as well as wearing a bloody jacket according to Asorio after the murder. Williams had a criminal history which included 15 felonies and multiple robberies. the "mistake" made was investigators from the original prosecuting team who handled the murder weapon without gloves. thereby depositing their DNA on the weapon. since the weapon itself was not intrinsic to the conviction the case was not overturned. now, where is this lynching you're talking about?

To summarize Geraldo's beliefs, as long as you wear gloves and leave no DNA beyond, you will always "seen" as innocent.
The items found were provided by the ex girlfriend, a prostitute that was living and turning tricks in his car. She was a drug addict, with pending charges, whose charges went away with her testimony. She should have been at least a suspect. But, it's not a far stretch to think that a drug addict and possible suspect in a murder, would forgo reward money. Her reward may have been getting away with being an accomplice to the murder or actual murder.

This is a tinfoil hat conspiracy theory, she was a retired journalist.
There is nothing weird going on. Please look at the court case facts for 15-20 minutes. He did it. It's all been put in front of a jury. All of this shit has been argued for 20 years. To the point where now people are making things up to be proven right.
Geraldo like usual has all emotion and no substance.
Innocence Project are up to their old tricks again.
There is a resurrection.
Did they know each other before tho?
This is a travesty of misjustice as it sounds like there was some doubt here so they should’ve halted it! However if he did it then ok but if not this is crazy especially if they mentioned his DNA wasn’t found on the crime scene!
There was no doubt. Just politics. DNA wouldn't have exonerated him. His MO was to wear gloves. There was a whole detailed trial that went over mountains of evidence. If you look at the actual evidence and the reasoning around it. It's very clear to see that he did it. You can see why a jury of 12 people unanimously found him guilty, and why it held up for 20 years through tons of court cases. The defense had gotten to the point that they are making things up to get him out of facing justice.
They would recall after his death
When will our justice system get it together
That girlfriend knows something
Oh, don't make me laugh. So he got the laptop, buy an informant which is a lady. You're trying to say blackmailed him? Yeah I don't buy it
Anyway his gone nothing you can help either innocent or guilty right now his soul are better place than this world no justice
15 felonies is crazy though. It almost seemed like this guy was martyr the way people have been talking about this. I don’t think the death penalty was warranted here, because they didn’t have any proof. But this guy was far from a good person if he had 15 felonies
You just admitted that there was no physical evidence. Just the words of human beings incentivized to say he was guilty. And since the courts no longer have effective mechanism to correct mistakes, the fact that all of the courts refused to do so is not proof of guilt. It is an indictment on our current incarceration system in which innocence is no longer an option.
there was physical evidence
@YungBeezer none linked back to him .
@@anny1650 yes it did. Please. 20 minutes of independent research that isn't written by the defense or "The innocence project".
@@anny1650 yes, he had sold a laptop that was stolen from the victim’s residence, and items from the victim’s purse were found in the vehicle he was driving.
Yeah he did not kill her but he was selling a stolen lap top that he stole, and all this stuff by magic it was in his car. Come on man o.j did not do it too cus the glove did not fit.... people please stop the bullshit, and to the lady saying this world is a worse place without this guy she needs to check her brain cells. This guy was a killer with a criminal sheet. Great job to the state.
You people propose any questions for likes and algorithms. Why even ask if the evidence is being ignored? Dumb with borderline questionable motives.

RIP Felicia Gayle
RIP ms Gayle
“He’s running for congress as a democrat.” Ohhhhhh
Smh 😡
😈👺👹🤬
💉🪳
*everyone with a brain* HES INNOCENT! There’s no evidence he was at the scene!
*people who forget that they can breathe out of their nose* the laptop!
You guys know he could have gotten the laptop from someone else right?
@@Chaoticchipsman you really love spreading this Innocence project propaganda don't you? I bet you think OJ wasn't guilty too lmao
Yes of course of it can be conspiracy I mean investigators may desire to take the laptop from the victim's house then they may put inside his car in order to finish the case
@@najmanajma6752 the laptop was sold to someone lol, mind explaining how Marcellus knew details no-one else knew about? the lengths you guys will go to defend a murderer is insane
@@cuber5003 inmate and gf just wanted money bro they had to find a way to
@@bmo401 you realize they don't get the money unless he's actually convicted, regardless that doesn't explain how Marcellus himself knew about details no one else knew nor does it explain his multiple confessions to others.
The case for his innocence is extremely weak if actually bother to look at the details instead of repeating IP propaganda
Exactly eraldo what the hell was this about . Modern day linyching
With a jury of 12 and 20 years of appeals.
@@MatthewsSloan means nothing the only time ppl think that the system is corrupt is when they're bring charges against crooked Trump.
He lynched that poor woman.
@@sprsmoke he didn't but someone did! Her killer is possibly still walking around...due to the negligence of the state of Missouri. They should be ashamed of themselves. They official should be investigated! The sitting Governor should be impeached.
@@sprsmoke where you there, where is the evidence, every life matters
How can Geraldo not know about the hair and footprints found at the scene. It took me 10 minutes to find out where it came from. Geraldo knows nothing about this case. He didn’t even spend 10 minutes researching it. That’s how much Geraldo cares.
You ever been to A prison? They are all innocent, just ask them.
are you saying there are no miscarriages...i live in the UK....a man called Stefan Klitscho was found guilty of murder despite the fact the police knew early on he couldn't be the killer...he served 16 years before DNA proved who was the real killer but died 1 year after being released............
Footsteps don’t match his and the hair didn’t match his and u worrried bout a laptop that he coulda got from anybody 😂😂 blind following the blind
You get paid to say stupid shit for fun or are you getting paid?
Michael Andrew Tisius, Johnny Allen Johnson White, Brian Joseph Dorsey, David Russell Hosier... hmmm!
