I will be forever confused about this case. What happened to blood spatter experts finding shooters spatter on his clothes? What about gun powder residue on his hands. Did he wash his hands strip his clothing put into laundry and put on new set of clothes? And what in the world is a cop doing asking google how to stage a suicide. Jesus christ, if anyone should know its a cop with a 30 year career behind him.Sloppy.
Nikki Battiste is an excellent reporter. She was so low-key and didn't make the show about her. Very professional too!

He started an affair on a church mission trip? That really shows his character.
There’s a reason why they call it The Missionary Position. (Sorry, there’s no way I could resist that one. Clearly they couldn’t resist it either.)
She just loved all those positive affirmations and hugs--how spiritual! Her demeanor also showed a lack of seriousness, almost giggly and shallow.
So common
"Jesus would understand and God will forgive us" - says every Christian who tries to justify every awful thing they do.
Well said
Props to those detectives who did their due diligence and didn't just take Brian's word for it because he was a cop!
Absolutely. It is like "He was a good Christian" Glad they saw through the Wolf in Sheep's clothing.
His words made absolutely no sense
yeah he thought he would get away with it because he was a cop well loved in the community and by both sides of the fam (still cannot get over that). he gambled and lost. it's what he gets too, because altho we might feel sorry for him for seeing no way out, IF he indeed was that well loved by the community and family (and apparently he was, deceased wife's fam sided with HIM for petes sake!), they would not have let him sink after a divorce where he may have lost the bulk of his assets. he's not a sharp guy. divorce is ALWAYS the option.
As a cop he would know gsr would or would not be present... I don't think he did it
I agree!
I was married for most of 22 years to a deputy sheriff in CA. A serial cheater. Being a very committed Christian gave me the desire to be a very committed wife. I was cheated on more than I would have ever imagined, leaving me with an STD. It’s been very difficult to forgive myself for my stupidity, but I think I’m almost there. I’m now with a faithful, wonderful man. What a joy/blessing!
Wow! I'm happy for you!
Do not believe it was stupidity that kept you to persevere within that situation. In the end each one of us should be able to live with ourselves - knowing that we did what God had required from us - irrespective of others' behaviour. In the process we grow in many ways, while learning valuable lessons, and being challenged to bear much good fruit - all towards extending His Kingdom.
The question always being to what extent one is willing to lay one's life down - taking up one's cross - as a living sacrifice - not a enslaved to one's own will, but obedient according to our Father's; thus following in Jesus' footsteps.
The road alongside an unfaithful spouse might be longer or shorter - according to God's individual plan for our lives. At any time He does not acquire of us more than what we can handle - with His help, and in due season He provides for an outcome; this towards working all things together for our good.
You where not stupid, you trusted someone who you thought loved you enough that he married you. You are not to blame for your ex husband's actions, that's on him. Glad you're now happy.
If your spouse cheats on you. You have scriptural grounds to get a divorce. That means God is giving you approval to divorce your cheating spouse if you choose to divorce. You would still be a good Christian.
However, my exhusband was unfaithful and I did get a scriptural divorce but I even felt I let God down even though I didn’t. Divorce and cheating is so hard to deal with when you marry a person you want to stay with forever.
So I can understand why you stayed marry longer despite the cheating you were hoping he’d change absolutely you didn’t want to divorce. You’re not stupid. You have a pure heart. I’m so glad you have a faithful husband. I found a faithful husband also our 2nd wedding anniversary is May 24th. I hope the best for your marriage and life. Your ex will reap the consequences if he hasn’t already.
@@truth_hunter
Know divorce and remarriage is currently commonly accepted within Christian circles, yet according to some (like the late David Pawson), it is not Scripturally justifiable. Had looked seriously into this, and tend to agree with him.
So glad the sister stood up for her. The rest of the family though, is absolutely disgusting.
Too bad her testimony was inaccurate.
Liberals ..
@@mikeskidmore6754🤡
@@seraphale he may have searched using a different computer.
The sister was wrong. I don't see enough evidence he killed her.
The fact that he's a detective and didn't bother with a burner phone to message his lover shows he was confident his brothers in blue would sweep any inconsistencies under the rug and wrap it up as a suicide. Too bad for him he got investigated by the good cops.
Yeah, I have a feeling his family was used to “handling” things over the years. But it’s gotten a lot harder to get away with such shenanigans.
Oh you bet. My heart goes out to Amy who had just ONE, ONE family member on her side - her younger sister. I am familiar with this type of "man". I am familiar, unfortunately, with this type of "man" connected to a family of power, to a job of power, and who manipulates everyone around them, including, despairingly, the victim's own family members. If she had done ANYTHING in her past, ANYTHING......depression, etc. she would have been in BIG trouble. As it is, they tried to use her "state of mind"........what a tragic case. And those texts of his to his 'whatever she is, made me want to puke with their emotional immaturity. I thank all the good cops, her sister, the prosecutor, those females that did not buy his lies. Many are grateful to see this.
And PS - her own children. My heart breaks for her. That is the toughest for me.....her own kids.
you are spot on right....he had to be counting on little to no investigation; otherwise how could a detective be so stupid....
@@HuskyTheDog2202 *Murdaugh
"You guys arent going to contact her are you?" Thats coming from a seasoned detective? LoL
Yes sir, yes we are and you know it.
This makes me think he is guilty
It makes me think - he is proud to have a mistress ..
Probably more shock of breaking the thin blue line more than a layperson being dumbfounded like it first seemed.
Ppl pm
Yes! Very suspicious comment there.
If she was so awful and abusive to him, what I don't get is why she'd shoot herself and not him then. Doesn't add up.
To think that a wife devotes all of her youth and middle-aged years to a husband she loves, just to be cheated on and murdered so he can relive his youth. Such a disgusting, selfish coward of a man. RIP Amy.
That isn't what a real man is
Was he trying to relive his youth? The woman he had an affair with was a grandmother. Seems more like it was a man who finally got to retire and didn't want to do it with his wife or with less luxury after she took half of their assets and his pension.
@@mortimerbrewster3671agreed.
Is it just me or do others notice every time a wife dies suspiciously- the hubby ALWAYS has another woman!!

It's the Chris Watt syndrome, sadly.

That’s even the case with 50% of all the divorces. Never throw away your old shoes before you got some new or something.
His wife looked way better than the mistress!🙄

Wow! 100% true, forever and for everyone! 👍🏆

I love it! One to remember!
Exactly
One of your soulmates can indeed be married to someone else. It doesn't mean either individual should dishonor themselves, their partners or vows they have made.
That's the difference between consciousness and lack of consciousness.
Genius and wonderfully savage.😂

Problem solved! Lol

@@breebrown5610
Since already having his hands full by catering for a mistress; no wonder he could not envision himself raising a new dog 😅
Had witnessed how a cheating spouse's attention can - in a wink - be diverted away from basically all interests at his own home. It takes only one strange woman to purposefully move in on and seduce a married man; to completely destroy him, his marriage, and thereby causing him to lose basically everything he and his wife had been working for over their entire lifetime.
Beware of giving in to temptations as such. All of us are tested - repeatedly - over time. Once one had given in, it's as if tied with a strong rope.
She loved her 100 year old home, her kids and dogs. Doesn't sound like someone with a bad temper. People who love helpless others like animals or kids are more even keeled.
Imagine being murdered and ur family telling it's a suicide and they support the suspected husband. Sorry for ur soul...ur family failed you!
Yes, but why
@@farfallinaazzorra3493narcissists rot together against decent people. Common pattern.
The family speaking out in support of him is the ultimate betrayal of her memory and legacy.
Guess he’s not going to get that 100% pension after all.
Especially since they're so much evidence against him and he was cheating on her, that alone would make me hate you.
I agree. I am reading comments just to find out if Anyone explains that behavior
Only one sister testified against him and she still signed the paper saying the victim killed herself. Just absolute disrespect to her memory.
How could a cop be so stupid as to commit a crime like that and not understand he would be caught. of course maybe he thought they'd let it go.
If she had a temper, she would have shot HIM not herself….. temper means your mad AT SOMEONE…. Not yourself
I thought the same thing. I've also heard anger turned inward usually manifests as depression, not a dramatic bloody scene at the dining table. If she had been that enraged, she'd have shot him.
Not if she was using it to enforce control and it went off accidently. None of us know these people but if your own family is not defending you in death that's a huge red flag that others perhaps weren't shown.
@@Spiritlife01 the jury heard all the evidence in a court of law, not edited clips with hosts that want to make a grabbing story.
Good catch, and well said.
@@Spiritlife01 "it went of accidently " Come on, are you serious ? And the barrel of the revolver happened to be pointed at her head???
what a wonderful lawyer.. Where do you find a lawyer like her with understanding compassion, emotional intelligence and reasoning these days?
He said “she’s gone, I’m sorry” to the operator, you don’t say something like that when someone you love dies.
Couldn't possibly have been habit/ training, from all the times he had to say that to someone else over a dead family member, though, could it?
P.s. you have no idea what "you say" when someone you love dies. Everyone responds differently.
Thank you, Anna, for being a voice for your sister. I was sad that no one else in the family stood up for her… including the children she so loved to raise.😔
And why? She was such a a lovely lady and a sweet soul.
He was a disgusting liar.
Why did they side with this horrible man?
Thank God for great detectives.

Lol it's so sad how people are really leaving comments like "omg congrats to the officers for doing the absolute bare minimum of their job" 💀
@@virg0_lem0nade You might not be old enough to know that this has not always been the norm in small town where one family has a lot of influence with the police and other legal authorities.
They investigate their own everyday
Not about Cori’s looks. It’s about a lack of character, integrity, and morality.
Which both are devoid.
This man’s wife “committed suicide” in front of him and he is feeling sorry for himself and tarnishing her name saying “she was so angry with me” like HE is the victim. Disgusting.
Killed his wife for his lover that left him. Priceless
Ikr??
Right!! 😒
Right lmfao 😂 wonder if he still thinks it was worth it 😂
The thing is that if she wouldn’t have left him he was going to dismiss her for a new acquaintance- in different circumstances. A man that leaves his partner in order to be you, will
eventually do exactly the same thing to you. Be aware
She's trash and only left him because he was under suspicion. She knew he was guilty. She didn't want to incriminate herself.
lol, so the dude didn't want to split his police pension with his wife and get a divorce. Man, people are stupid.

And greedy.
Who would want to split their pension? the stupid wife didn’t put anything into it every single paycheck. He did.

Shame on you Corey. Married means unavailable. You're responsible as well
I can't imagine anything more heartbreaking than being allegedly murdered by your husband and having your own family testify for him, including your mother and your children. When really what they're doing is supplying more of a motive why he might have shot her.

The biggest slap to her face was when her obituary called him her beloved husband.
I saw that too, and it was disgusting! Even if he had been innocent (which he wasn't), he was having an affair and didn't want to be with her anymore. What part of beloved is that?!
If they didn't give women so much power in the family courts I think this stuff wouldn't happen. Damn sure not nearly as much
😮😮
😮😮😮😢
Funny how these despicable people played the religious, devoted roles, while shamelessly cheating on their spouses.
His search on his computer was tantamount to a confession.
As a detective how didn’t he know they could find out about his searches
Nothing disgusts me more than when a man murders his wife, and her family sides with him despite compelling evidence, including he’s having an affair. Her mother and sister took the stand and said derogatory things about her. Angry people shoot who they’re angry at. The gun shot residue guy is an idiot. Her hair was long but it wasn’t thick. I’ve been a hairstylist for 25 years and that hair piece was much denser than her hair. The coroner reported what he saw, he had no motive to lie. He was having an affair, looking up accidental deaths, and the coroner’s findings didn’t match his story, but they prefer to believe she committed suicide rather than face the truth. How alone that poor woman must have felt surrounded by that toxic, judgmental lot.
I agree. Her hair was not that thick.
I was thinking that too about her hair. I have had a hairdresser lisence many years before deciding on a different direction in my life. Her hair did not seem very dense to me. Glad someone else noticed this!
100% ! So sad.
I thought that about the "hair" too, which is actually a wig, not human hair. From the beginning of the 911 call, he seemed guilty. I also find it disgusting that her family was on the side of POS husband, and the loud sobbing after the verdict was just cringe worthy.
Absolutely. Maybe she shouted because she felt unheard.
Just get a divorce. He is now in prison with no mistress, no money, etc.
Now, he's probably playing the role of the mistress.
He was thinking with the other head
Criminals are always a lot dumber than they think
Yeah, welllll. . . . easy for us on the outside to say. As is so very common among married couples, it's quite possible their bedroom went dead years beforehand, shut down by a wife who simply wouldn't any longer. After suffering through this myself for over 20 years, you cannot imagine how crushing and emasculating it is, both mentally and emotionally. Judging from the testimony of the mother and sister, I'm going to say that's exactly what happened. Some men just ride it all the way out and live with it, get prostate cancer and die before their time. Some men get divorced. And a very few deal with it like Brian did. Certainly not saying I condone it, but I can kinda understand it.
You notice that his mistress wasn't as attractive as the wife was. Doesn't matter in any way. If you're dying of thirst, once you find someone and begin drinking that sweet nectar, it just doesn't matter.
Usual suspects
i don’t care what anyone says, any woman that knowingly enters any kind of affair w a man already in a relationship is just as vile
Just as vile as the man that Cheats on his woman but not vile as the man that cheats on his wife&kills her
I would think the man who is breaking his vows and risking giving STDs to his partner is worse, but then again, men have always been coddled and given the "they can't help it" line.
The same with *any* person that decides to cheat on their spouse or cheat with someone’s spouse
And evidently she has two failed marriages already!
@@DulcimertunesGee! I wonder why?
Poor Amy. What a crappy family except for one sister.
I couldn't believe it
I thought the same. They betrayed and sold her. Shameful! No wonder Amy had to deal with emotions. There is nothing more damaging!
That lady Cori was just awful. She’s laughing in the police interview like the situation was a joke. She was married herself and went to another woman’s house to make out with that lady’s husband!! Just gross!! At least go to a hotel or something
And that she got married again after this is baffling. She is such a fraud going on missionary trips to pick up married men.
In the wife's car.
and the fact she sits in court with a cross around her neck.. like a sweet innocent christian.
If you research the literature, many men bring their lovers home to their own bed. Must be a power trip.
@@Mr60minor that is surprising. I'd think the risk of getting caught would be too high. Besides it being so disrespectful of the wife.
Maybe she had a reason to be angry with her husband but why her family betrayed her and sided with her cheating husband is utterly heartbreaking, especially after a lifetime of being a loving and devoted wife and mother.
$$$$$$$$$$
The fact that Amy's mother and siblings stood behind Brian after knowing about the affair and also that there was no stippling around the gunshot is DISGUSTING!
And, if Amy had ANY anger issues, they would have been legit. There is something darkly WRONG in that family.
You don’t want family like hers , poor woman , her own mother backing her murderer

Brian is literally the dumbest detective that has ever lived.
Ikr
He’s guilty. He really thought his standing in the community would shield him. He really thought he was too smart.
Bryan/Brian asking detectives "you're not going to contact her (his "missionary" lady friend), are you?" was a major red flag.
I see what you did there.
My favorite part was "what you see won't be what it looks like" 😂 if it walks like a duck & it quacks like a duck, it's a duck!
I caught that too he was so calm. 72 messages?? Romance for sure
Missionary STYLE, maybe 😤
He said, "I have a woman..."
It really shocked me how Amy's family, including her mother and son, took this guy's side and didn't defend Amy when she was no longer there to defend herself.
Some sort of familial Stockholm Syndrome going on there.
Maybe there was nothing to defend
It's called media. They only protray what they want you to think
Just unbelievable 😒
This makes the verdict suspect. He is more likely innocent if people that knew her best (including her own son) say she was capable of killing herself.
What i didnt hear mentioned is the lack of emotion Brian showed after his childhood love "killed herself?" No tears? Poor Amy.
If her family heard all that evidence and still didn't stand by their daughter/sister, thats disgusting... Rest in peace Amy. We see you 🙏❤

@@stuartmoore6310So should the family had lied?
First minute in and i knew he killed her. I heard that they had different retirement plans and he was a cop. He calls the shots and she didn't want what he did. He would lose money with divorce so he offed her. I cant believe her family betrayed her. I hope they are haunted for life for that.
I think the most telling evidence (and it wasn't mentioned too much) is that he made a point of saying he "held her hands."
Gun shot residue would then be considered transfer if they were to test his hands.
Ahh...great point!
Oh good point..... And, he immediately gave up and started mourning, he didn't do CPR or anything.
I thought exactly that
That makes sense !! Because he didn't love her anymore at this point !! He had a diabolical reason for holding her hand !!
Thought about that too!!!

@@arbjful - We're not hearing everything here, and it is slanted against him. What about gsr on her right hand? Does it line up with someone who shot a gun? Her right hand should also have blood splatter on it.
It was said that he held her hand afterwards, let me guess...it was the right hand, so that could excuse certain evidence not lining up (tampering with evidence). Any cop would know instinctively to preserve the evidence scene.
Then there's the damning texts between him and Cora (his new love) the night before.
He played his in-laws so well! Only her "little" sister loved her and has not let his manipulations get her. Good job, there! The rest of the family - shame on you!

Watched this after following the Karen read case with corrupt cops. Nice to see there is also good, hard working and honest cops.

This is a prime example why investigators, and prosecutors are necessary. They are the eyes, and ears of a grieving family in too much pain to see the truth.
And science doesn’t lie, people do!
The investigation completely missed and the prosecutor from NY wants to make a name for herself.
I think you cant see truth. There is no evidence and the way this guys behaves points to being innocent.

For real it’s that easy.
@cataniamommaitalia87 You know religion is just made up lol
@@Mr.Willis6388 especially for men nothing in it for them just a moneymaker for women The Young have the right idea now dont do it
I found it super interesting that he said "I'm sorry" after he told the dispatcher she's passed away. seems to be an involuntary admission of guilt in the heat of the moment
Good point.
The defense lawyers would argue he meant: I’m sorry… I couldn’t stop it.
I didn't catch that...good save!
I was analyzing his 911 call and statement with cops. He definitely was being deceptive...
Watch Peter Hyatt
36:09 Bro Amy having a temper would only prove that she would have shot her husband and not herself. That angle makes zero sense. 36:54 and then her own son describes a complete unproven hypothetical assumption of his own mother doing the most preposterous unimaginable act in defense of the husband? What????
They‘re nuts. I feel bad that amy had to put up with these people and they betrayed her even in death
Sick. All of them. Sick.
Aren't police officers trained to not leave their loaded service revolvers unattended in their homes?
No but it should be secured and safe guarded, but in the country farm there are plenty around...
@@user-so8ei2td1d police are responsible for their weapons.
The saddest part is that her own family betrayed her. Hope you find peace, Amy.
Does anyone wonder about the truth surrounding Naomi Judd's death? The family had the police records sealed. 🤔
but we only have Amy’s mum’s word for it? Should we just accept what the mum said as truth? What if there’s coercion on the mum from the ‘Kennedys’ to swear falsely that Amy was abusive? But even if it is true, it suggests that Fanion might have shot her at the spur of the moment coz his dam of forbearance finally broke.
I’m not believing anyone but the dead woman sorry
@cataniamommaitalia87This man murdered his wife in cold blood. If anything, he was the abusive one and turned it against her and turned her family against her.
Abusers do this all the time. And he's a cop. They are more likely to abuse than the average person.
@cataniamommaitalia87 ...and if the husband were to degrade the daughter? Same treatment? Or is he just quick tempered and needs to be prayed over?????
You'd think someone who works as a detective would have a higher IQ than room's temperature
He was only the evidence processing guy.
I think he truly believed that his reputation, and being a cop, they would just take his word for what happened.
@dmreddragon6 You're right. I mean how careless and stupid of him to leave evidence on a computer !!? Surely, he would know that as a detective, they always look at the computer activities.
I've become shocked at how stupid most cops are , that's not a put down but an observation .
😂😂😂
He had all the motives (wanted out of the long-term marriage, had an affair) whereas how many people decide to k*** themselves in the middle of an argument while making sandwiches! He must have caught her off guard. RIP 🕊️
My major red flag was that sandwich.
The side piece is not attractive at all, whyyyyyyyyy? 😂
I agree with all of you! Yeah I believe she didn’t see it coming.
Actually our friend did it right before Christmas this last year. Everyone was eating and drinking having a good time. She got mad, yelled no one is getting anything this Christmas, went upstairs and shot herself in the head with a 357. They also say it's not common for women to shoot themselves in the head because they care about looks. But anything is possible.
@@SidewaysInTraffic there are witnesses. She didn’t do it in front of everyone. This case is very different. There are internet searches, a mistress, the desire to keep all the money, all the tell tale signs…
It’s absolutely disgusting her whole family, minus her sister, being on the defense team. What a weak and blind people. Amy seemed to be the strongest one from them all. They will have lifelong issue processing the verdict. Shame on her son. Peace for Amy.
What a betrayal by the family.
It’s hard to believe a senior police detective could be so utterly stupid, Google searches, text messages, gun too far away from her head ….how did he ever think he was ever going to get away with it? All for a chubby Granny who was just as pathetically hypocritical as he was, “missionary” WTF. Then she dumped him anyway.
Lust is a deadly Sin.
I bet he thought his “brothers” would brush everything under the rug.
Committed Christians are usually the ones to watch out for
It’s easy really his stupidity was he thought his brothers In the blue would back him up and not do the whole big investigation that needs to be done after someone dies 😢
Lol the “chubby granny” got me bcz it is oh so true lmaoooo you’d see it if it was a younger lady, but ughhh
For a detective himself, he sure is stupid to think his deleted text messages wouldn’t be found.
I don’t think he ever thought he would be a suspect.
It sounds like the behaviour of a habitual liar that got away with his lies so often that he didn't even put effort in his concealment anymore.
Or his computer searches
U don't have to devorce and throw away ur kids. All kids should have their father and no woman should be on the street.
With family like that who needs enemies.
Keep your friends close, but keep your enemies even closer....
As a retired police officer, this was one of the most interesting episodes of 48 Hours I've watched. I will also say I've been retired for 25 years. And a lot has changed in crime scene investigation. It wasn't called that when I attended specialized evidence-collection training. Yes, I have worked suicides. The first red flag to me was the woman having shot herself in the head. I was taught women who use guns to commit suicide don't typically shoot themselves in the head. Or do it someplace in the home where it would make a mess. Don't write this off as being sexist, this class was in the late 70's. I found the testimony of the defense' ballistics expert most interesting. A woman's thick hair blocked gunshot residue. And I agree with his statement the conviction should not be based on GSR. There were other red flags shown and a very meticulous investigation was enough to make the prosecution's case. Nice try on the defense side with the GSR testimony. Had the defendant refused to talk when he was read his rights and the defense pursued his statement of trying to grab the gun more aggressively, he might have gotten away with it. Might have.
Thanks for sharing your insight here. Much appreciated.
I found the GSR test by the defense very deceptive and wouldn’t acknowledge that. Where the gunshot went into the head she didn’t have that much thick hair to absorb all the residue if it was fired at close range. Glad he’s convicted. His appeal will be useless
I feel bad for Amy but also her sister Anna. I’m sure her not siding with Brian caused a rift in the family. The good thing about that is she now knows what type of family she has. 😢
I thought the same thing.
She has probably known about this fact for a long time!!
As a crime scene investigator, this was very interesting. I actually have encountered, first hand, a suicide where I found no gunshot residue on the victims hand and there was no soot or stippling on the wound. The explanation was that he had very dense curly hair and the gunshot residue was absorbed by the hair and also went inside of the wound from hard contact. Of course there are other inconsistencies here but still very interesting.
Excuse me.... is there hair in the wound on Amy's head??? How could she hold the gun to her head and have the bullet pass through her hair, not leave residue and not implant a single fraction of hair around the entry or within the wound! The defense is so lame. He went insane with his selfish desire to be rid of her.. and for what ? that crazy lookin Cori? Fanion is such a despicable thing...
Why is no one talking about the text messages between Brian and Cory minutes before the wife died !? They are texting about their future together and how it is not happening fast enough or something like that .
Sickening
I'm guessing that is probably why he was convicted. The defense was weak with all of the evidence. The family was just disgusting.
Disgusting on her mother, siblings and son! Murdered and then drag her legacy through mud. Shame on them all. The side piece is awful.
The wife was so very much better looking than that cheater detective!!
Remember when people just got a divorce when they got tired of cheating on their spouse?
In every decade, even century, it has occurred, correct.....but so have these horrific crimes because divorce was too much to ask of the "powerful."
You're showing your age😊
Remember Columbo?
Amy's family should be ashamed of themselves for siding with her husband.
SMH poor lady
Sounds like her son helped, too.
If in fact he killed her. I am not convinced.
@@mauriciofelix190 Does your gender have anything to do with that opinion?
@@questianna not at all... you?
Amy had a rotten family … the truth was in their faces and they decided to support the murderer. I’m undecided who was worse; the son, the mother, the sister testifying against Amy and all the rest who sign the letter. The younger sister was the ONLY ONE who really had the intelligence to see clearly what was going on. She is Amy’s angel!
Women by nature do not shoot themselves in the head they don't want to leave a mess put someone else to clean up and you certainly don't want to destroy their crown and Glory a their hair I don't know what happened but that was not a suicide that's a homicide not a suicide🎉
True
How awful that her own family sided with the guy having an affair and wanting to be with the other woman. Poor lady, you husband murders you in co,d blood and your family believes him! So p,eased she got the justice she deserved. Maybe tha family will be able to stand back and see things the way the jury, the police and the public see it.
Same as the Todd Kendhammer case. He was so obviously guilty and nonr of his or his wife's family could see it
💯
@@DavePaintThese people don't want to see it, don't want to see him in prison.
Right? How her own sister said “I was embarrassed for her” bc she “reprimanded” her husband like a child in front of her…I can’t
@@chellessong1576 She was making her sister the wrong one and virtue signaling about how a wife should behave around her husband. It was sibling rivalry and hatred masking as correctness.
This guy is a cop and he asks if they are gonna contact the other woman??
Amazing! He might as well said ....oh, but no need to contact her!
He felt entitled because of the shield.
He did it
What the girlfriend admitted about his concerns about losing his retirement and that she would take everything is very revealing of his thoughts and planning. And he wanted his girlfriend. She probably found out about his affair.
