WATCH LIVE: FL v Danielle Redlick - Wife On Trial For Murder Day 1
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июн 2022
- A woman stands trial for allegedly murdering her stepfather-turned-husband, and giving authorities a flimsy story about him stabbing himself and having a heart attack. Danielle Redlick, 48, faces a count death of second-degree murder, and tampering with evidence for allegedly killing Michael Redlick, 65.
The backstory between the couple is patently complicated. Michael’s second wife was actually Danielle’s mother. They allegedly married in the first place to get her better health coverage as she was dying of cancer.
“In fairness to Mike, Danielle’s mother was dying of cancer when they were dating,” an unidentified family friend told WFTV. “She had terrible insurance.”
The account is that he fell in love with Danielle after her mother died. They married, with Danielle becoming his third wife.
The union ended in bloodshed. Danielle Redlick called 911 the morning of Jan. 12, 2019. She allegedly told police that her husband got angry on the night of Jan. 11, took a bite out of her McDonald’s burger, and spit it at her face. He allegedly grabbed, pushed her to the ground, and rubbed his fist against her face while shoving her head to a stove, she allegedly said. This culminated in her grabbing a knife, but he grabbed it, and made “stabbing motions” at himself. She allegedly claimed to try to hide in the bathroom, while her husband was at the door apparently referencing the movie Cape Fear.
She claimed to find him outside in the living room, badly hurt, cops said. Defendant Redlick allegedly claimed she tried to save him using CPR. She couldn’t find her phone to call the police, and she collapsed in exhaustion next to Michael, she said. Danielle woke up the next morning, and finally called 911, she allegedly said.
But authorities said she was on a dating app about two hours before calling 911. The state of Michael’s body also allegedly didn’t match her story. Contrary to her account, an investigator said they found no signs of Michael vomiting, and that the bruising on his left arm was consistent with defensive wounds. He had fingernail impressions on his left forearm and a bruise on the inside upper lip of his mouth. There were no signs of a heart attack, no signs of bruising consistent with CPR, and his ribs were intact, authorities said.
Those who knew the couple allegedly said Danielle had a foul temper. Even their children allegedly said she was the one who usually started fights in the relationship.
Officials said that Michael Redlick had sustained a fatal stab wound to his torso, likely dying in minutes.

Time line is much appreciated 🙂
@@texas1977 no problem! I was looking for something like this myself but I didn’t find it so I made it myself and decided to share in case someone else wanted to know it too
Thank you 😊
Thank you so much!
So this is what a trial is like, without Elaine objecting every 5 seconds.
well this isn't a civil court case so of course there won't be as many trivial things showing up in the trial like attorneys holding grudges or defendants making jokes while testifying
Frankly, I miss those HERESAY days....
What, if anything, (😂) is the reason you started watching this trial? Are you missing the Depp trial? Because I AM!!! I loved the court humor and attorney antics. And I miss judge A. She was my favorite part of that trial.
Hahahahaha
Both sides objected every 2 mins! Let’s be fair here
Poor opening statement from her attorney and poorly delivered. Wowsers.
Agree ..
I’ve watched a lot of trials and this is, by far, the WORST opening statement I’ve ever heard (by the defense).
I agree.
Watch Sabrina Limon opening day defense for the worst I’ve ever seen and then if you’re brave watch the closing defense because it’s a miracle she didn’t get a retrial.
Not the absolute worst I've heard but because she sounds like a 15 year old it's going to be a struggle for me
In my experience, EVERY opening statement by defense is funny. All they need are audience laughter tracks.
If this is the worst you've seen (defense opening), then you haven't seen Darrell Brooks' opening. Worse than his opening was his closing 🤮.
The defense attorney giving the opening statement is giving me the worst cringe anxiety, such a horrible storyteller, and it's a shame because I think it's a pretty interesting story
Same here!! Thinking how horribly she is reading this. I don't think she ever has read it before and nobody proofread it to see how it all went together and if it sounded right.
@@Selaithify exactly!
It’s painful. Public speaking courses or Toastmasters would do her a world of good.
I’m watching this as if I’m a juror there, and the broken sentences, the pauses and the lack of confidence are all putting doubt in my mind.
Agree , horrible
🤣
I love how we're all hooked on watching trials after the Johnny Depp and Amber.
I was obsessed but before I spend time on this one is it interesting too? I feel it would be because about murder
Watching/listening to trials has been a hobby of mine for the last few years. Ya’ll are just catching on to the fun. 😉
@@Weddingplanner74 my thing the last few years has been interrogation analysis videos on here but now after JD I’m realizing how much deeper I can dive in my crime obsession hahaha
@@kaitgeorge-blay5537 YES!!!
I know, right!!?? I need to get some work done. This is ridiculous.🤪
I have just discovered this trial....so when her attorney said that Michael Redlick was her step father I literally gasped out loud and my jaw hit the floor. Wtf?!?
Step father turned husband JERRY JERRY JERRY
Considering she was 22-23 years old when she met Michael and that he had married her mother to help her health benefits while she was dying of cancer, the new union is not gross or disgusting.
“Hey Alabama, hold my beer!”--Florida
I’m so addicted to trials..I was totally obsessed with the Jodi Arias trial.
I was so upset with the verdict from the Casey Anthony trial.I always thought
she murdered poor little Caylee Anthony. She was only charged with lying to
police.🙄
Barb, I’m obsessed too watching high profile cases like Arias, Anthony and Amber Heard. That reminds me I gotta mow the lawn sometime today. lol
It's a very broken system. Sometimes it doesn't work. I think almost everyone including the jurors think she murdered Caylee. However that "reasonable doubt" is a doozy. I wish they would've gone for different charges. Perhaps a manslaughter charge would've seen Casey Anthony do some jail time. It's sad. Rest in peace little Caylee.
That case still bothers me. I can't FIGure out what the Jury was thinking. If Ms Anthony have 1 oz of paternal instinct, poor little Caylee would be alive and well today. I was a 'momma bear' protecting and providing for my cubs and SHE could care less where he child was or with who! as long as SHE was enjoying HER life as a single woman. Sick She should should have a court order to sterilize her and a court order to prevent her from supervising a child. Imo Ms Anthony looks human but is another one of mother natures crEATures inside a human body.
Barbara 👋🏼 I’m addicted too! Where did you watch the Jodi Arias & Caylee Anthony trials? I’m still flipping between different RUclips channels & welcome any help finding the best places to watch 🙏🏼
Still rewatch Jodi Arias from time to time. Adore Mr Juan Martinez😂
defense opening statement sounds like Danielle wrote it on a semi wet napkin exactly 38 minutes before they started and it’s the first time her lawyer is hearing it.
I have questions. When did they get married? When were the children born? What happened to the sister she was supposed to be helping care for? Did she hide in the bathroom twice and he kicked the locked door in twice or did her attorney lose her place? Oy, do I have questions.
@@Lori_in_CT exactly , she had the opportunity to make a really strong opening and tell the story but flopped. Hopefully as she goes along her careers her storytelling improves significantly.
@@Lori_in_CT The door was supposedly kicked in the day before. Idk when it was fixed, bc she’s claiming she’s locked in the bathroom, again.
Why wouldn’t she run out of the house?
And where the egg do those eggshells come in?! The prosecutor wouldn’t shut up about them.
@@Lori_in_CT There was a bathroom and a separate toilet. The bathroom door was kicked in the day before. (I bet the jury upticked that.) He didn't make it into the toilet on the day, tho he did wander around the place for up to 20 minutes (and did not call for help).
her lawyer is so anxious. really hard to listen to her and understand her point.
yeah it is really a skill to be a good story teller
She’s terrible!!!
Agree , not well done at all. She should of practiced in front of mirror, plus better written…. Can’t follow it’s just,ping all over the place
This defense attorney cannot tell a story in a linear manner.
I already don’t like her. I totally agree with you.
The channel help me learn English more also while listening to them talking 👍🏻
👋🏼😘
anche io ! 👍🇮🇪😆
thats good
That's awesome! Keep up the great work!
So let me get this straight, she drives her daughter to someone else's home for safety, she leaves the home to find safety from this abusive man but she leaves her other child behind as a watch out?
Exactly what ran through my mind as I heard it.
Would never ever happen. If your spouse is abusive and you are scared to be there with one child, you'd never leave the other one. If you did somehow end up with one child stuck there, you would never allow them to put themselves in danger to be your lookout. Absolutely absurd!
I think that the husband was only abusive towards her !?!? Not sure😮
Daughter was interviewed. I heard her statement. Now I believe more this woman did killed in self defense. Also forensic testimony for no defenses wounds. Original
Report and amended report 2 months apart... really made off case... just because public opinion.
@@awright119021 look for the daughter interview about everything.
Her lawyer should have rehearsed more.
She sounds like a talking app, no emotion whatsoever. No pacing, weird pauses.
I agree it was hard to pay attention to
Totally agree
All those years of Law School should include speech classes and creative writing. These opening speeches were awful. They were jumbled and all over the place. It sounds like they wrote those speeches an hour before court started.
Yes I agree. The opening speeches were sloppy and a pain to listen to.
Sad indictment on an already ailing system.
Her lawyer isn't very good public speaker, and she spent half of opening statement calling her client "Daniel".
Maybe she’s not very experienced.
I heard Daniel at first too, but if you listen carefully you'll hear Danielle.
Neither is the prosecutor. And he has the haircut of an 8 year old boy from the 50s.
@@humantwotwentyone641 ik this prosecutor lol he's definitely a chooch, also she has a pd so tha explains very poor representation..in my opinion
😂🤣🤣🤣, “Daniel”…too funny.
Why does it seem that her lawyer just got handed this case the morning of opening statements? So amateur.
Poor defense attorney!!! Seems like this is her first 'real life' trial. I'm so distracted by her nerves!
Same. Her opening is very jerky and not well rehearsed/planned.
I'm here after watching depp heard case. Crazy that those rich ppl cN pay millions for the best but Joe bloggs gets any ole attorney! That's scary
@@bereal6590 There are plenty of great public defenders.
Step daughter turned wife/murderer. This is SUCH a Florida type thing!!! The guy probably had it coming from someone
As a lawtube graduate, I just want to yell, "Objection! Leading!" 🙋🏻♀️ SO much leading happening from the prosecution.
Those questions were leading af.
Love it 😂😂😂
Someone would have to teach her attorneys what leading is first. They seem to be just doing as much as they have to here.
Criminal and civil court are very different . Hence why attorneys usually specialize in specific types of law. Not to mention each state has different laws.
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂Me too!
My immediate question is if he kicked open the locked bathroom door how did she retreat to it again the next day? She couldn't have locked a broken door.
That’s exactly what I was thinking, didn’t make sense!
Same here, first thought that came to my mind!
I thought the same🤔
It was the toilet door she locked …..!!
But did he kicked the door ? We don’t know
To all you new trial watchers gained from johnny depp trial watch the Chandler Halderson trial. You will not be disappointed. The best prosecuting team ever. Lead prosecutor is amazing. Riveting case. Oh and the judge is the best.
That was a good one too. The mark red wine trial and holly bobo trials were good also. The holly bobo trial was so sad. There was another good one too. I can't remember the name. The girl was burnt alive in her car. I would have to look it up.
Jessica Chambers. Watch that one too.
@@Mean.Devil77787 yeah I watched that too. All the big trials I’ve seen but if you have suggestions for less known trials throw them at me. Just trying to give new trial watches a good suggestion not throwing shade.
@@lostineggsaisle yeah I watched one of those and hope that we get a final verdict if it gets a new trial soon. I think I’ve seen your name around in comments before do you watch a lot of true crime trials and interrogations? My brother and I got so hooked on them a few years back.
Oooh interesting
If you’re looking for a good trial where the prosecution is killer, the Groves trial is a good one, if you’re looking for an interesting trial with a lot of evidence and a clearly guilty defendant then the Joel Guy jr trial is best lol
I just finished Chandler Halderson’s trial. Prosecution and everyone on the side did an amazingly thorough job! Would recommend that one also.
Good trials. I watched both of those
Anthony Totd will blow your mind
I found the Nancy Brophy trial interesting in that it was a classic example of a defendant getting on the stand and digging their own grave. Her lawyers could not produce a defense other than she and the victim, her husband, loved each other. Prosecution really rocked.
@@francesmaravich8544 That one made me angrier with the defendant than most I’ve watched! What an arrogant A$$!! I hope he is treated like most other inmates who hurt kids! 🤬
Weak opening. All he did was talk about how the defendant denied involvement in the crime. Odd.
I've watched many court proceedings and I would like to give this defense attorney a suggestion. I'd suggest writing out bulleted notes of key points. Record opening statement you plan to present to jury and listen back. Rehearse it to point that it's concise , easy to follow a time line, while engaging like you would read a book. I lost interest in details as it was presented because of language structure chosen. Just my opinion but I believe that even though jurors have taken an oath, that if you can't keep their attention, your client can suffer
Agree she's a sleeping pill oh longevity boring
I thought it was just me!!! She is not prepared or scared or whatever...she should be on her A game.
It was definitely a poor delivery!
I wonder if she is paying for her defense or if this lawyer is provided by the court. If she's paying, she needs to get her $$$ back!
Might be her first time having a case televised. Most likely is the first time.
I’m Saudi Arabian I like this channel so much, I subscribed after the Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard trial, I sleep while watching the trials on the channel 😅😂
Thank you for streaming 🙏
Hey Elvor, i was reading your comment and coming from Canada, i found myself wondering what its like to live in Saoudi Arabia. Two very different worlds but we sleep to the same youtube channels :) have a great day brother.
I wish I could speed this sound up like a podcast. Listening to this defense attorney is painful. So much hesitation….spit it out lady!
How it works might vary based on what kind of device you're watching on, but you totally can speed videos up. On a PC the method is: hover the mouse over the video, click the cog-shaped icon at the bottom, then pick "Playback Speed."
If you're watching on your phone just click the gear icon top right-hand corner. Playback speed. I did that when Johnny Depp was testifying in his trial! 😂
@@somethingclever2180 Thank you, lifesaver! 🙂
@@alishamaroney2798 fo 'sho!
You can speed it up top right corner.
Why did she call the police before she'd finished cleaning? Did she start then realise it was too hard? And she had 11 hours to figure out what she wanted to say but it sounds like she had no idea what to say when she made that call, he had a heart attack, but how am I going to explain all this blood, I mean he stabbed himself? Very strange.
Not really strange when u think about being in that same position. Defending yourself from an awful fight with your husband who’s abusive and you realize you killed him. You could tell by what u said, it was not premeditated and imo, an act of self defense and the body/brain goes into a state of shock. We cld gv opinions all day but being in the sitch? We don’t know how or what manner we would react after such a tragedy. Or how our brain would process such an event.
He may have taken 20 minutes to die and she could hear him through the door. When she emerged he was dead. She might quite genuinely have thought it was a heart attack and not the stab.
How did she lock the door if he had "kicked in the locked door... the night before" either the lock, the hinges, the the door frame or all of the above would've been damaged. Had he done that, it clearly was not a safe spot so why go back there?
EXACTLY what I thought!! If it wasn't a safe space just a day prior, why run right to that spot again??? She could have run to the garage and stayed in her locked car or someplace else if he broke the door in one day ago!! Not buying that part of the story AT ALL
I thought this aswell!!!! and why leave the youngest child there..if youndont even feel safe..
I think there was a closet in the bathroom and she locked herself in there.
When my ex when I was 16 and living with him he was 21 kicked in our bathroom door that I was seaking refuge in he kicked it in and the door didn’t come off the hinges but the lock and door frame was broken half the frame came off the wall, and the door was broken and the part that had the knob and lock had broken off. I definitely never hid in the bathroom again even after we got it fixed bc to me it wasn’t safe. I don’t understand how she one time says the door was kicked in and then says another time she rehid in it. Like that don’t make sense to me.
@@arigarcia2667 exactly! I'm sorry u had to go through that
I've been addicted to watching murder trials for years - and these are two of the least effective opening statements I've seen - rambling - uninteresting - not compelling at all - I started to drift off.... zzzzz
💤 😴
agree.
I’m confused he kicked open the locked bathroom door the night before but it was still functioning the day of for her to hide in again per her story?
I picked up on that also.
It looks like a lot of doors in that bathroom and one looked like it was disconnected from the frames I’d have to go back to screenshot tho
@@Brinaaaaaa Even though, it means there was no point in hiding in the bathroom with multiple doors and one broken 🤷♀️
I thought the same ! How ? 🤔🤨🇳🇱
She locked herself in the separate toilet area inside the bathroom.
I had to increase playback speed during prosecution's opening statement lol
Omg this is the best idea ever!!!
It was way too long.
Thank you! It actually sounds smooth and well done.
Stabbing him in the shoulder seems like she just wanted him off of her as he held her down. Definitely self defense IMO of course.
The first red flag is before any evidence is presented. The prosecution says in his opening statement that “Michael was not done with the marriage”. It doesn’t matter if YOU are not done-when the other person IS DONE, then the whole relationship IS DONE. Having BOTH WILLING ADULTS is the ONLY way to create and SUSTAIN a marriage/romantic relationship. You cannot force someone to be in a relationship with you. His language alone makes me believe he felt Michael had some right to be with her just because they were married. The stabbing in the shoulder and this information alone is my first reg flag for sure.
@@PneumaNoose Right-on. Plus she had filed for divorce but the process was stopped because he hadnt seen the papers and/or signed.
This is already so convoluted that I can’t figure out what’s going on.
Try he was her stepfather first then became her husband...
@@sadlad2005 😵
she says it was self-defense. prosecution says it was murder. both sides agree that she stabbed him once in the shoulder, but the defense claims it was only once and that that alone couldn't have killed him. on the 911 call, she said he died of a heart attack, then quickly changed it to "he went crazy and stabbed himself." she also cleaned up the crime scene and went on a dating site for a bit before looking up "how long does it take to bleed out from cutting your wrists", doing that, and making the 911 call.

Sadly, her attorney sucks! She will be found guilty. She needs new counsel ASAP!
I agree!! Her opening statement is awful and she sounds like a robot. Zero emotion.
I completely agree with you but I just saw a news report where they acquitted her of murder but found her guilty of tampering with evidence.
and she wasn't
Poor kids 😔
And God bless Europ Belgium
I was looking for the broken door that he kicked in the day before.
When he says you’ll hear a call while she’s in jail saying she was lying her eyes went all over the place .
I'm no longer waiting for the stimulus check because I earn $22,000 every 14-16 day's recently🤑🤑
Ahh , ya making so much moola your desperately pushing your BS in a comment section 😂 Get a job !
Show the freaking pictures...we aren't children.
They don't show them out of respect for the family.
They don't show them because RUclips thinks it's disrespectful to the family of the deceased. You can probably find the photos somewhere else.
You act like a child can't see this video.
Some are actually. There are a lot of 10 year olds and even 8year olds on RUclips .
@@nikki9321 it’s not RUclips’s responsibility to parent other people’s children.
49:44 so Daniels’s mom passed away and her stepfather takes an interest in the stepdaughter… so they get married and now her sister (the one shared between Daniele’s mother and Michael) is also her daughter?……. And then she and him have a kid which is Daniele’s sister’s siblings which she’s also their aunt…. Man. I hope I’m getting this wrong.
No, unfortunately you've followed this bloodline connection correctly.
I had to listen to it a couple times but I’m pretty sure Danielle’s sister was from when her bio mom and bio dad were together. Because the attorney says that her mother was separated and started dating Michael. They dated for 3 years, then got married and she died 3 months later. Then the attorney says that Michael asked Danielle to come help take care of her 16 year old sister. So I’m assuming that Danielle was older than her sister because she didn’t live with them. So really Danielle’s sister was her bio sister, but Michael’s step daughter. The sister obviously wanted to stay with her step dad and not her real dad. That doesn’t change the fact that Danielle and Michael have 2 kids together and their step sister is also their aunt.🤢 But at least we’re not talking about incest.
@@jillfeatherman5523 thank you for the breakdown. I had to go back and listen to it a few times as well. The way the attorney told it was confusing on the first listen. But I didn't think incest was involved. However, I feel bad for the jury. In actuality there is no blood relationship between Michael and Daniel. So the only flaw is character and morals on BOTH their parts. However, there's a whole lot missing from the way the attorney described the situation, and that's what they do. But if Danielle was old enough to work at a bar, and know that her mother had passed away, and this was her mother's husband, then she knew better than to get involved in a relationship with him. Especially since her lawyers opening statement claims that she had family and she had the wherewithal to feel some type of way that the family would disagree with the relationship. So she knew it was wrong. I'm not one to jump to the conclusion that she was being "groomed". I would need to hear what the relationship was like between her and her mother. If this man appeared to have influence and money and Danielle and her mother didn't get along it could be very possible that she was gunning for her mother's husband. I know of many situations like that.
@@jillfeatherman5523 If you want to hear a convoluted story about many marriages taking place, listen to Ray Stevens song, "I'm my Own Grandpa." It is so complicated that they literally draw a flow chart so you can keep track of who is married to who. There is no incest involved in that song either but he literally does become his own grandpa. Listen to it sometime when you want to lift your spirits a bit maybe after hearing gruesome details in some of these court cases.
Welcome to Florida.
Broke my ankle so I need something to watch since the Johnny depp it got me wanting more or any show I should watch
That was strange.
God dang, opening statements for the defense are absolutely horrendous. Sounds like they wrote it up last minute the night before
awesome..more trials
So she married her step dad this is nuts
He married her mother because she was sick with cancer (and eventually died from it)and needed health insurance
That’s what I think. Wth was on this guy’s mind? She was so young when he married her mom. Ugh.
@@0gtgirl038 If she is 48 years old now, then she was 45 years old at the time of the murder. Her attorney says that Danielle and Michael were married for 15 years; that means that she was married at 30 years old. That isn’t very young.
@@0gtgirl038 the other daughter was 16, not her. He was caring for the 16 year old after the mother died so she came back to help. She was 30.
Her attorney is terrible
This defence lawyer’s opening statement is truly painful to listen to….maybe it’s her first trial?
I think it was b/c she memorized her opening. Had she allowed herself to refresh her memory and look at her paper, she could put more emotion into it.
Her attorney is horrific.
She’s clearly not believing in her client. If she did, she would find it easier to make her case. It’s like in debating when you are told to take the opposite side of your own viewpoint. You do it but there’s no passion or emotion behind it.
57:07 - he's so angry she thinks he's going to hit her but her doesn't. She leaves the home, he follows her to the DSW AND the GAP. Okay pause: assumingly he is angry enough to jump in a separate vehicle follow her to wherever she's going, then they find parking, park their cars get out of said vehicles, gets inside of two very public retail stores. Then what? He just disappears? This attorney appeared to have no real interest in preparing and opening statement that would assist this jury in piecing together what might have happened the night of this man's murder alleged murder. Opening statements and closing statements are so important.
It's your only chance to talk directly to the jury
@@supriseimblack Exactly!
@@danyetoohotforyoutube it's basically like your attorney testifying on your behalf without being cross-examined. And because what the lawyer say isn't evidence, it can't really be used against them generally speaking..
Agreed! And not just in opening statements…happened again during her testimony. Michael was following to the Gap (on a busy street btw, Park Avenue in Winter Park has heavy foot traffic), he was harassing her and poking her in the back with his finger (witnesses?) and then *poof* she’s back home and he’s texting her. 😂 Fake stories have so many holes 🕳.
STEPFATHER TURNED HUSBAND?? HUH WTF
Sick woman
@@Jordan_676 no it’s sick “man.” He probably had a thing for her while her mom was still alive. And probably the reason the jury came back “not guilty”.
@@MsK_1111 according to the lawyer she wasn't interested in him, yet she moved in with him. She should of walked away when the arguing started. She didn't seem traumatized when they showed the gruesome photos.
He was her stepfather then became her husband... Really.
I know. Gross.
Hi is this the first part or second ?
First
Thank you symara 😘
what time does the jury start today
Why is the CSI doing an Amber and addressing the jury rather than the lawyer asking questions?!
I was literally scrolling looking for a comment of this nature.
I hate that. Here she comes! Ms. America! She is gracing the jury with her presence.
Most experts are trained to do that while testifying.
Because most people who testify on a regular basis are trained to do that, police, lab/csi experts, professional experts. The jurors are the ones the info is being presented to, not the attorney. The attorney knows the info, the jury needs the info to weigh and make a decision.
Innocent people do not cover up accidents or self defense.
This does not look good for her.
She might if she didn’t think people would believe it was self defense ? And hence why she made up a different story cuz people wouldn’t believe it
@@Brinaaaaaa that just gonna strikeback at her. After all, once found out she's lying then there's possibility of other thing she also lie.
@@Brinaaaaaa Your first instinct in a case of self defence isn’t to worry about not being believed, because it’s what actually happened.
It happens
Not true hun. Not true. Looking at a case from the outside as we all are is 💯 opposite of being IN IT. One NEVERY KNOWS how we, our brain processes and would react to such a tragic event.
You know a defense is going to eat up the family drama aspect of the stepfather dynamic. Not saying it’s not relevant, but I don’t make my decisions on guilt based on opening statements for this very reason because they aren’t facts and intentionally play on emotions. Let’s see if they can show actual proof to back it up. Surprised by everyone jumping to conclusions based on the opening statements alone.
Agreed
I have followed this case from the beginning. what surprises me is this ; the first time this lady looks sad. why all of a sudden?
Glad I am behind by alot. I can skip sidebars and watch at 1.5 speed 😂
Can’t wait to see @EWU do this case
They stand up for the jury ?
If they are charging her with 2nd degree murder, they must not have much to dispute her claim.
Can someone explain why long freeze
From opening testimony it sounds like self defense. Because Michael being her stepfather before they was married being a authority figure. And if they have evidence of him following her like is said. I don't know why Michael didn't call 911.
he indeed called 911
I was wrong he did call 911. I'm guessing that night and they never showed up.
@@juanitaackerman9528 Yes it was just before he got stabbed, stating he needed help as she was out of control and dangerous, then he either hung up or was cut off somehow
@@ritayammouni2803 that is so SUSPICIOUS
He only placed a call to 911 before the fight, seemingly to threaten her as she was on probation, and hung up. For unknown reasons he placed no call to anyone after he was stabbed and was walking around for up to 20 minutes before he died. She could hear him and only came out after all noise ceased.
Is she doing an Amber Heard and addressing all her answers directly to the jury?
📝🖊 ~ Whoever sounds like they’re writing with a sharpie is incredibly annoying. It reminds me of someone using a fingernail file on their fingernails. Someone using a fingernail file literally makes my body and neck have goosebumps as I cringe, just like somebody scraping their nails on a chalkboard. It’s horrible. The sharpie is not as bad as the fingernail file, but it’s still bad. I think it might be the judge taking her own notes since it happened during both the prosecution talking in the defense attorneys talking.
Please shut off the judges microphone (or whoever) or do something to stop it. 🙏
I have the same reaction to these sounds! - Also Terrible is what ive heard many times : when witnesses are dealing with paper evidence bags and they are right by the mic as they open them up. AAAAHAHAHHAHHHHHHMYmysophonia!
Yesss I used to hate the sharpie/expo marker sound on paper in school when the teachers would use it
I hope someone fed and took care of the dog!!
Her opening statement is one of the most fragmented opening statements I've ever heard. Poor jurors.
Omg we don't want to just look at the defendant! Show the evidence!
New to this case but girllll please get a new lawyer, this lawyer is lost n needs a lot of help testifying for u. 🤦🏻♀️
I secretly hoped that the Johnny Depp trial would go on forever 😔
You get this now
It’s not over yet. Amber is going to appeal.
@@anonymoushuman8443 Yikes… omg
Court does not work that way. When you watch more trials and learn law, you’ll realize All judges are different and a good judge won’t allow a trial to run on longer than it needs to.
That’s cruel thinking I hate amber and seeing the pain on Jonny’s face
Video freezes & audio goes out too much... sucks
Omg and I thought ambers lawyers were the worse this one is bad…where they get these lawyers???….
Left over from Amber's Lawyers office... these were the No good For Amber Trial lawyers. Especially that opening state-state-ment
Have you done a jury trial?
I didnt think so.
I don’t like to call out bad grammar.
Agree
Why are we only allowed to see a couple of pictures ? Like I don't want to see the victim but other than that how can I be an at home juror ?
This is gonna be a good one!
*grabs popcorn* 🍿
This is going to be a good one
JD and AH court has got me on this side of youtube now! I am glad to see i am not alone judging by the comments haha!
You should consider a career in Law while you're still young.
@@supriseimblack haha,im not that clever :D but thank you
Where are the pictures they reference?
After a picture of the body was accidentally shown to the public, the judge ordered that no pictures were allowed to be shown in the media
Boring that we don't get to see any photos this trial.
Anyone understand the Defense lawyer?
See, Sanez + Hadden would've taken photos like this IF, only IF there was proof of damage. lol !
Loving this so far..
Hold up. Is the court staff still using Windows 7? Holy
She probably covered it up because she thought they would think she killed him since she did Stab him, but her intention wasn’t to kill him. It sounds like self defense and would explain why she covered it up in fear that people would think it was on purpose.
Innocent people do not cover up accidents.
Why would a relationship get so violent? And why did nobody call 911 right away? I would think both him and her could have called 911. Unless he didn't have phone.
@@0gtgirl038 people act in crazy, irrational ways following traumatic experiences
@@humantwotwentyone641 most people call 911 for help. There’s more to how this took place. We’ll have to wait and see.
what about the dating app though.. very suspicious activity
Absolutely no hate but post the Depp trial, I can see how questioning and opening statements flowed much more seamlessly in comparison to here, I wonder does the difference come from how much you’re willing to pay or how high profile your case/ how many people are watching, as at the end of the day they all study together…
I’ve watched trials for years and there are lots of terrible attorneys out there. Public defenders, paid defense attorneys, and prosecutors. Lots of great ones too. Just because they go through the same type schooling does not give them great speaking abilities. If you are new to trials watch the entire Chandler Haldorsen trial. That shows a amazing prospecting team. The lead prosecutor is one of the best attorneys I’ve heard. But his public defender is atrocious. I mean terrible. The team stinks. Riveting case.
Depends on how long someone has practiced law and the schooling they had.
It’s definitely the quality of lawyers. You’re just seeing what you get as a regular middle class person.
Ben chew won billion dollar cases. One was against the state. There’s no comparison
@@britth5333 ooh thanks for the suggestion I will definitely check it out! I’m not from the US so Im more familiar with how it works here and the difference in solicitors as we call them but comparing these two trials is like chalk and cheese, so interesting to compare!
This one is in Florida. I should have expected this craziness.
He couldn’t call 911 for himself as he’s bleeding to death and she’s locked in the bathroom on her phone?
No. HE had her phone AND his own phone, he continued to shout threats for 5mins whilst she locked herself in the toilet (he'd already previously knocked the bathroom door off the hinges). Why did he not phone 911.
Only when the threats stopped and it went quiet did she get courage to open the toilet door, she thought he may have gone out but was afraid he was hiding to finish his attack on her... she was shocked to see him dead.
Abnormal situation…stepdad marries step daughter after wife’s death? Wierd
Very suspicious of behaviour....was he doing sommat he Shudnt when he was married to her mom!
And then he cheated on her again, wow that man is something!
Right, here I go for this trial next! 🤣
Watched chunks of the Depp trial, watched ALL of the Nancy Brophy trial. The differences in these three is amazing.
I would hope that the sound and freezing issues are rectified. I know it's a privilege to have this access but I'm really interested in hearing this one.
I will agree regarding the Defense Opening Statements. That was a horrible presentation.
Why does the Defense pause so much..she is losing me already.
The Asian defence attorney gives a terrible opening statement. Completely disjointed and doesn’t come across as prepared.
Or just... defence attorney.
Whycare we listening to 100 % leading questions by prosecutor? Probably because he is doing such a great job boring the jury out of their skills.
I know nothing about this case so this will be good to watch. Coming in with an open mind. Depp trial defiantly got me hooked for me. I'm already into this trial.
"Defiantly." Look up the meaning of this word. It's not what you think.🤣
Why To to the police & report a DV incident.. then walkout when they want tk interview him bc she didn't want him to get in trouble? What did she think would happen when she walked in?
Why do I get the feeling of a child involved?
He treated Danielle in an authoritative way??
What??
He was her step dad and acted as the one and only boss. Make sense now?
@@Princesssparkles2014 Why would she marry her step-dad? She has to take some responsibility too.
Such bizarre phrasing. Defense opening could have been better..
I lost the person asking for a good trial to watch however I would recommend The Joel Guy jnr trial, if youre into the true crime thats a killer
That trial is unbelievable as to what he did!!!! My gosh......couldnt believe it!!! Wow
Nancy thank you 🙏
Some of my favorite trials:
(baby) Dylan Groves murder trial- prosecutors are top notch.
Halderson.
Ahmaud Arbery (Linda is my hero)
Skylar Richardson
Amber Geiger
She made the case difficult.
I wonder if she will use the excuse that it wasn’t a fair trial because cameras are in the room .
I mean is it possible he has been stabbed in that shower then dragged into that room with the couch and what is the big thing about the eggs in the drive way
The Johnny depp trial got me wanting to give others a try now. Hope my Adhd can get past opening statements.
im so sorry for your disease
Hi Lad Libs,
Just bear in mind that Johnny's case was CIVIL, this is a criminal case.
Big difference with different "rules".
Still very good to watch though.
Before long you'll become like most of us here - Trial Junkies! 🤗
@@invincibledrank460 it’s okay they give a lot of amphetamines for it😂
That prosecutor sure loves his own voice!🤨
