Verdict Reached: Staged Suicide Murder Trial - OH v. Matheau Moore Day 8
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2022
- A man allegedly murdered his wife and made it look like a suicide. Matheau Moore, 51, stands trial in Delaware County, Ohio.
Wife Emily Noble, 52, was last seen on her birthday: May 24, 2020. She was reported missing the next day. Her body turned up in tragic and grisly fashion the following Sept. 16. She was found hanging from a tree in a wooded area near her home. There was reportedly a 20-inch USB cord around her neck. There were multiple injuries to her head and neck. Authorities determined that this was homicide.
Noble was so badly decomposed authorities had to use dental records to identify her.
Prosecutors argue Moore killed her and staged the hanging. He faces charges of murder and felonious assault.
Moore’s previous wife Lisa Pedersen told WBNS in a June 2021 report that he once choked her when she was pregnant with their first son. It was New Year’s Day 2001, she said. They had been married three months.
“He came over, and he did, for some reason, he ended up, yeah, putting his hands around my neck,” she reportedly said. “And he started to choke me.”
It was the only time he put a hand on her, and they kept in touch throughout the years, Pedersen said. Though they maintained contact, she noted that he, contrary to contemporaneous media reports, claimed to be participating in the search for Noble.
“Once the details were made clear to me, I started to lean toward his guilt,” she said.
Both of their sons are now dead, according to WBNS. One of the children reportedly died at 17 by hanging in a park the summer before Noble’s disappearance.

Ridiculous that these charges were even brought. The state had no case whatsoever. A total embarrassment to the prosecutor's office.
And the temper tantrum the other day didn't help--
Agree.
I agree with your sentiments but I struggle with the fact that her manner of death on her death certificate is homicide. A finding of homicide is what brought this case to a courtroom. Did the ME get it wrong? We'll never know.
That's not true though. They had a circumstantial case with a pattern of events that can't be explained by an innocent person. It wasn't enough to convict but it was more than enough to charge. By definition and by fairness.
@@meepk633 You can charge anybody with anything. The key is to have enough evidence to back the charges up in court.
"Justice for Emily should not be an injustice for you." Well said. Matt can hopefully move onward with his life and find happiness again.
I’m sure he’ll find another woman to take advantage of. We can all bet on that!
Yeah, move on to a drunken unemployed stupor.
Hopefully a google search will prevent someone else from becoming another Emily.
@@opiumdensRus well he's been in jail for 15 months and found not guilty. Maybe he sobered for life. My grandfather sobered. I would hate to be your friend or relative with no sense of hope and empathy from you. I'm not even saying he did it or not.
@@Amy_Stanmore Whatta mean. I empathize he needs a drink and hope he finds one, and a job, and a new wife to take care of him until he decides to help her kill herself.
If any juror sees this: Thanks for your service and ability to wade through the actual evidence in this case. I watched the whole trial and would absolutely have made the same decision. I hope Matheau Moore is able to find peace in his life after this unfortunate series of tragedies and that Emily is finally able to rest in peace.
It’s a shame
The OJ Simpson jurors didn’t do that.
I totally agree 👍 well done jurors
@@anne-mariemoore Thank you Anne. This was a tough case and filled with so much sadness. I absolutely think the jury made the right choice.
I totally agree. I knew this was going to end in not guilty or an appeal that ends up exonerating him. There was not 1 iota of evidence.
Being on this jury was tough
To say there was "reasonable doubt" in this case is an understatement!
I have watched this case all the way through without watching any outside media. I ABSOLUTELY WAS HOPING FOR THIS OUTCOME! The wave of emotion from him it’s like he could finally feel that weight lifted. Wether you agree with me or not. I feel as justice was served!!!!
WOW. Can you imagine how it feels to be charged with murder knowing you are innocent and your entire life hangs in the balance? How many sit on death row for murder they haven’t committed simply because they lack the money to have good counsel? It’s nice to see that at least one person didn’t fall victim to such horror.
I grew up with many that ended up in prison and it's tough, when you have one dear friend accused of killing your other friend it's difficult when you love both sides and even If they were guilty i never asked .
I guess if he blacked out he might really believe it. I hope he maintains his sobriety bad things seem to follow him....
That is what a public defender is ....
Literally my worst nightmare, and to top it off being accused of murdering your spouse or family member must be even worse because you not only lost a loved one and you know your innocent and you know the real killer is walking around. So you lose your wife, possibly your freedom and you also lost justice for your wife.
THIS is what I've been waiting for since day one. With the lack of evidence, he never should have been put on trial in the first place and I wish him all the luck in the world. Hopefully people just leave him alone.
Justice was served. Idk why so many people who watch these channels don't seem to understand the importance of reasonable doubt. People shouldn't be convicted of murder based on the notion that they aren't acting a certain expected way or because they seem suspicious to you. There should be evidence. Although I do suppose the bloodthirsty masses are an important part in the equation when we're talking about the importance of due process.
Russell, I don't know why you say 'bloodthirsty'. How do you know at least some on the jury didn't think he was guilty but the evidence weak? I think he was guilty but not just based on the way he behaved so that's a pretty broad statement you made. There's a difference between being .charged and being convicted. They don't always do hand in hand.
There are a lot of people that like to inflict pain while sitting behind their little lap tops or phones. Many of them like to see innocent people go down.. it’s just humans man.. We are a pathetic dangerous animal as a whole. The human mind is another creature by its self.
Your a fool
HE IS GUILTY MA'AM.
What I’ve learned about trial is whoever puts on a better show wins. As far as the truth. It will have to wait.
Good for him. If the state could convict him with that evidence / lack of evidence then they could have convicted any of us
EXACTLY
I was convinced he was guilty before the trial, but proven the opposite. Bravo to his attorneys. Their belief in their client was palpable.
It was awfully suspicious, but that don't make it in court.
It's incredibly scary bc most of the time something like this pops up on the news, I start off believing it, then a couple years later the trial starts and it's rarely what I actually assumed it was...
@@25daysAmonth yeah, stuff like this is why I don’t trust the media nowadays
Thanks for not putting the verdict in the title. I appreciate you not spoiling it.
Same! I was unable to watch the verdict live, and avoided all chat and comments when watching this later on. So pleased the title only read: verdict reached. 👍
Ditto! I wish people wouldn’t go back through all the videos and spoil it in the comments. I like reading comments but I always have to wait until I’m all the way through unless I want the verdict spoiled since I never seem to get the time until way after it’s over.
I was going to be very surprised if he was found guilty because the state failed to prove their case.
The state didn't fail to prove their case At All. Like soo many on this site, the jury failed to Listen & obviously have no common sense.
@@bethryan9077 we were watching a different trial then. I wouldn’t have found him guilty if I was on the jury- no evidence other than speculation
Yay justice was served. Thank you jury. The state had tried him w/o any evidence and that’s frightening. God Bless Emily’s family and friends.
Yea but a water bottle was moved!
I don't know if he did it or not but the prosecution never had a strong case without any evidence he did it. He also had a great defense attorney. I'm glad justice was served ~
I thought the evidence was there. Four different experts examined her remains and came to the same conclusion. They didn’t know who she was , who Moore was initially, they just had the body. If she did it herself, how was her face damaged? And her neck? She was too light for it to come from self inflicted hanging.The experts testified to that. And all the people who said how did he carry her? She weighed about as much as a child. And there were far fewer people outside then, due to quarantine. Why did he have her phone? I think the defense gaslit the jury. Their expert relied on data from the ‘90s! And how was she objective? Defense just used punitive tactics to undermine their understanding. I found it sad. Rest In Peace Emily.
@@jmmcgee3509 No eyewitnesses to the killing. No DNA to prove guilt. No fingerprints to prove guilt. Just a circumstantial evidence case which is always tough for the prosecution. Proof beyond a reasonable doubt is a very high standard, as it should be.
@@jmmcgee3509 Three of the four 'experts' copied their findings 'verbatim' directly off Dr. Amanda Agnew's report. Dr. Agnew didn't even follow her own suggested criteria for her 'jagged' description peri - or post mortem injuries to Ms. Nobles face. Also , the use of 10 times the strength of peroxide, may have actually caused that "jagged' perception as it can cause flaking of the bone material. Once she bleached those bones, there was No way to be sure. I weep for Emily Noble as well. The investigators & the prosecution are the one's who failed Ms. Noble.
@@jmmcgee3509 the state was using data from the 90's, the defense was using literature from 2018 which is the most up to date evidence.
@@jmmcgee3509 Yeah but there is not proof that it was him that did it specifically, that's the point...you cant just put a most likely perpetrator in jail because you have a strong feeling he was guilty
Anyone else so bummed they didn't show the prosecutors faces at all during or after the verdict? That was what I was looking forward to the most! 😂😤
It is scary it ever got to this point with so little evidence other than "iT hAd To bE hiM beCause Who elSe?"
EXACTLY! We need the ability to stop persecution from prosecutor's! He absolutely had no time to kill her. I pray I am not wrong.
It doesn’t actually matter if we’re “wrong”, the state has an obligation to only prosecute cases where they can prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt - that’s a vital cornerstone of our criminal justice system that protects innocent people from an overzealous state. If they wanted to prosecute Matt, they should have investigated competently and found hard evidence - failing that they should have accepted he didn’t have a case to answer in a criminal court.
@@1986Dams Based on Emily's injuries maybe they thought they had enough.
@@sunnyann7 but the evidence showed there was no way he could have done it

Thanks! You always do such a nice job on timestamps. I appreciate it 😊
Not guilty does not mean innocent by any measure.
I regained some faith in the judicial system. I feel so bad Matt had to go through such a horrible stressful situation for over a year. Go home Matt
I’m crying tears of happiness for you Matt! Such gratitude for Attorney Menache, as always she has done a magnificent job proving this man’s innocence with such intent & emotion. Mad respect 💕
Same here my god! 💜👑💜
Yep
Thanks
@@matheaumoore best wishes! I’m here cheering for you .
I've never been so annoyed by the prosecution. Their demeanor hurt their case, but I still think if it weren't for Diane, the jury might have gotten it wrong. Congratulations to the defense! 🎉
I thought the State had a nasty demeanor as well. Especially the Lady.
Does anybody know if Diane is a former prosecutor- turned- defense attorney? I ask because of her manner of speaking, meaning "loud and forceful," similar to other prosecutors I've seen on YT, including the infamous Juan Martinez of the Jodi Arias trial. FYI for those who don't know about Juan- he was fired, then disbarred, by Arizona for some "hanky-panky" stuff about 3 years or so ago. You can search YT for more about that.
That has to be one of the hardest things. Waiting for the jury to come back.
Diane Menashe is an extremely smart smart person who knows what is going on. Her finger is on the pulse in the courtroom and I look forward to seeing her in action hopefully in Cleveland in two weeks. Happy Birthday Diane. I hope you enjoy your day. Matt was very lucky to have you as his trial Lawyer, your passion is invigorating.
Diane Menashe you are amazing! Direct, thorough, and authentic. Enjoy your bday you deserve it!
Really loved finally seeing Matt being able to smile. Take care of yourself, follow your journey… maybe in a different state but non-the less😊🙌🏼
Wonder if Matt can sue for the time in jail!!?? I hope so
@@user-bc2jy7cp9g I agree, B✊🏼💕
I'm still on the fence if he actually did it or not, but the evidence presented was weak and not enough to convict him which is how it should be.
If he was found guilty with this weak evidence, then we should be worried about future cases where legitimately innocent people are being found guilty with weak evidence such as this case proving nothing.
Jurors got it right with what they had to work with.
Evidence was weak? Ok..I hope your never a juror
Reason you're on the fence is because nothing linked him. My husband and I text all the time what these two were texting. Even going as far as taking my wedding band off. Doesnt mean he killed her. Whose to say he didn't want to search because he didnt want to find her like that. Remembering her last is always in mind. So I can see why he didnt search every time. That seem to be the only two things they used for guilt. How's that guilt? Only guilt he had is drinking and texting her. Wishing he told her he loved her more. She died the night of her bday. Suicidal women. They will kill themselves on the night of their birthday. Coming out the day you came in. Makes sense. No motive at all either.
@@theltwins5434 I hope YOU are never a juror !!!
I think there was more that went on that night when they got back. They were both out drinking and I do believe maybe they argued etc. . But I absolutely 100% believe that he’s innocent. They literally had ZERO evidence and even the circumstantial evidence was laughable.
@@original2858 Another reason to not search for her is because if he happened to find her body, people would be harassing him even more about him doing it.
You usually go looking for a missing person outside when you're expecting to find a body, not find them camping out in the woods somewhere.
Awesome defense by Diane Menashe! Judge and jury too! The executioner/prosecution should be sanctioned for making a fool of himself yesterday! Justice served!!! 🙏
I was a day behind watching the trial when I saw a verdict had been reached. Couldn’t resist, had to click over and see it. Excellent outcome. Justice served. Best to Matt as he moves on with his life.
Thank you Law & Crime for airing the court case! This was the first case I watched from start to finish. After watching his first police interview and then his interrogation, I had a really strong feeling that he just didn't do it. He actually answered questions the way I would have and the way he referred to their relationship, it resonated. I'm so relieved for him. I think counseling for the loss of his son.
SeattleJen..wow your a fool..laughable. where is the evidence he is not guilty?
Yep, I came here from the interrogation as well. I also didn't think he was guilty, just from watching that interrogation!
Good job Diane Menashe! She is amazing.
Why because she put a good act on and thrower some paper around?
Diane the one who got Casey Anthony off too for killing her toddler
@@halimak625 the lawyer for Casey Anthony was Baez as I remember ,look it up please
Another great presentation of Diane menashe
You are correct. Baez was her lawyer not Diane.
Congratulations to Matt and the defense team. Diane is amazing!! Engaging, smart, determined, efficient in her questioning, fierce but likeable. Wish we could watch every one of her trials.
She is nothing but a blustery con artist who doesn't mind using bullying tactics & she practices high deception to make herself seem intelligent. She failed miserably. Just because a simple minded jury declared him not guilty, does Not mean that he was.
@@bethryan9077 ...good points however, by virtue of the verdict, she didn't fail her client. A good many folks don't understand that not guilty is not the same as innocent. The burden of proof lies squarely with the prosecution and the jury did not believe they met that burden. I struggle with the fact that her death certificate states manner of death as homicide. Unless the ME finds differently at some point in the future, that Emily was murdered will remain in perpetuity. Imagine having to bury a loved one knowing there is a death certificate that reads "homicide" and no one will likely ever be brought to justice. My heart breaks for her family and friends.
@@bethryan9077 Diane is amazing!
@@CaliforniaForever I have stated exactly who she is.
Did you watched the one she was Dr husel lawyer accused of mercy killing she was Brilliant
As a criminal defense attorney, there is no better professional feeling than providing an innocent person justice.
I didn't see a single second of this trial so I'm talking in general.
"Innocent" under the presumption "innocent unless proven guilty", yes. However, huge question marks remain. Only he and God know the truth. His story is not convincing to me. But then I was not a juror in this case.
I’m so glad he’s free!! God bless the jurors and all involved in this difficult case!! He had an incredible attorney, the best I think I’ve ever seen….justice prevailed!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️
Well said 💜💜💜
Wow! This has been quite an interesting trial.
The jury made the right decision. I'm still not sure of his innocence but the burden of proof was not met.
Makes NO sense whatsoever !!!
You are right. A finding of not guilty is not the same as being innocent. The burden of proof lies squarely with the prosecution and they did not meet their burden.
Yep i agree .State just didn't prove it plus he had Diane for a lawyer i stated when i saw she was his attorney i said she will win she's a great Attorney
The prosecution failed Emily.,,,they had proff I don't know if they themselves didn't catch it..,ignored it, overlooked it or were paid to look the other way, There were to many inconsistencies in his own comments to the first officer, to the detective on the second interview where he changed times of events and did the same thing in referring to Emily in the past tense. Before she had ever been located.,,,I know on the first interview he referred to Emily 3 times in the past tense and I believe on the second one it was 2 times. You don't refer to your wife in the past tense unless you know that person is no longer alive!!
As much as I wanted the judge to dismiss this case. I am so much happier it went to the jury with a NG verdict. Thank you jurors!
Yep 💜🙋🏻♀️🕯
ps, i found it really frustrating on the chat that some people kept referring to him ''looking guilty'' or ''smirking''....which i never saw him do once! he deserves peace now. RIP Emily 💔
I thought he looked scared. Like deer in the headlights scared. Like I'm about to get hit by a bus scared.
Verdict is at: 2:13:00
Justice was served ❤️ the state failed to meet the burden. The defence attorney did an awesome job 😎
I hope he can get on with his life, can't imagine what he's been through. Loses his child then wife, then wrongly prosecuted. Will probably have to move to another town or state.
Yep, he’ll have to go find some poor sucker to leach off in another state.
@@donnasmith7188 sour grapes. From the evidence seems they were mostly living off money he received when his mom passed. Look at what he got, subtract bank account divide by time since receiving. No fancy cars, no big expensive vacations etc.
@@donnasmith7188 think you will find if you listened correctly - he had 90k in 1 bank account, and another 90k in another bank account, also he did not attempt to cash in on Emily's Life Insurance Policy so you need to think about that comment you made!
@@loulou4148 I think you need to go back and listen again! SHE had $90,0000 + in HER account and then THEY had $90,000 in a shared account. He had no job so his inheritance was pretty much gone. I’m pretty sure he didn’t collect on her ins because he was a suspect from day one. AND he lived in HER house, that he didn’t pay a penny for! It belong to her and her siblings and she bought them out.
@@loulou4148 : He and Emily had that money in an joint account and only one of them worked for a living. Also, hard to cash out on life insurance when your the primary suspect of that persons murder wouldn’t you agree?
Having watched every day of this trial I can say how incredibly impressed I am with the skill, tactical approach and dedication of the lead defense attorney. She is awesome-a wonderful, hugely skilled legal practitioner who obviously had a complete belief in her client’s innocence.
Thankyou! Believed in him greatly, cried and cried again with him when he broke down at the end. Awe struck with Ms Menashe all through, what a brilliant woman. Hope all prosecution are demoted! What it would’ve meant for all citizens to of had a conviction here. Really scary stuff. Juror’s I’ll never know you or the defence council or Matt. So much love for you all. Wish I could Thankyou all. I found your comment to be so thoughtful and spot on 💜👑💜
Matt, I hope you have the best life possible, go and taste peace. Hope you’re able to grieve fully now. I’ve lost a few close ones in the past few years. It’s so difficult to just get up some days. Bless you.
Rest in beautiful peace Emily Noble. 💜👑🕯❤️
Thanks
Overzealous police, Overzealous prosecutor. They zeroed in on him from day one. Matt and I spoke almost every day after day after Emily went missing and believe me they made it perfectly clear that they didn't think she was missing but that he killed her.
He has a poker face , he was a card dealer in Las Vegas , he played his hand took a gamble and won against amateur players.
He tried to strangle his pregnant girlfriend when he lived in Vegas too 😔
Lawyer on his left looks like her life just changed and she looks so tearfully happy. Must be a relief. Everyone very emotional at that side of the isle. I need to see this whole trial-I just started watching yesterday.
Don’t waste your time-it’s a bunch of nothing-absolutely no concrete evidence linking him to her murder.
Jeremy Seymour
If you do listen for the inconsistencies in the times he gives in the times he wakes up to the different officers...listen to him refer to her in the past tense on the very first interview...I believe I caught it 3 times. Question yourself why if your wife was missing ...,and your cell phone kept ring non stop why he never took the time to look at it to see who was calling...because I would have checked it every single time to make sure it wasn't Emily his wife, or in my case if it had been my husband if we wee still married. Pay close attention to how he moves things around in the garage each time him and the police office go in after the officer has gone out to his patrol car. Your going to see a cooler with a extention cord and then your going to notice a red flashlight that wasn't that at the beginning. Pay close attention to every interview with each police officer..detective, and then when he goes down to the station ..Pay attention to things his father and cousin are saying in second interview. This man is quilts, the prosecution just left to much information fall to the wayside,
Don’t get strangled in Westerville ladies!
You mean don’t get lost 65’ from the curb because the police will never find you.
I can’t imagine losing my son then my wife then sitting in jail for over a year going through a trial and having practically the whole world judging you. His life has been completely shattered.
Having watched every minute of this trial, I think this jury got it exactly right. There wasn’t a shred of evidence that pointed to Matt and the police botched the case from the start. Good luck to Matt as he now has to go out and fight his sister-in-law about the estate!
I think her sister started this whole debacle. She should be ashamed of herself. But she's not, she's a monster
Amy will file a wrongful death civil suit. Just like Nicole Simpson's family did against O.J. Simpson.
justice has been served.
i commend diane and her team for doing an amazing job in responsibly, ethically, and zealously defending matheau and upholding the constitution. and thank you to the jury members who, through their pointed and intelligent questions to the witnesses, also showed great commitment to their roles as the true fact-finders in this case.
for those who disagree with the verdict, perhaps looking into organizations such as the innocence project would help to get some perspective.
gut feelings and stacked inferences violate the very mechanisms that ensure our right to the presumption of innocence by holding the state to its burden of proving guilt beyond and to the exclusion of all reasonable doubt when a person’s life and liberty are at stake.
69% of dna exonerations obtained by the innocence project have involved eyewitness issues, and let’s not forget that one of the state’s main arguments, john kramer’s testimony, was related to this exact problem.
better a 100 go free than one innocent person suffer 💛
Diane shredded the state's feeble case; I still think Matt is a family annihilator and he killed Joey, Emily and possibly his youngest son. However, the state's case, leading off with the worst reading analogy ever was feeble at best.
@ the devil exhausted her I hate it when someone gets executed & later it comes out that person was innocent.
@@michaelkennedy5126 you may be right about Matt? The State was pathetic, reminds me of the Barry Morphew fiasco.
Michael Kennedy so he’s innocent of guilt in this case, yet you find him a family killer. You have been reading the back of the cereal box for far too long. Anyway we all have opinions and are entitled to speak them. Next you’ll say he drove the truck into Emily’s mother🙄
Beautiful comment. Thanks!!
Thank the universe for this jury and defense attorney!
This guy has been through so much in one lifetime - may he find some peace and happiness. And may this attorney hear my applause as she and her team did a fabulous job. She tore apart every aspect of the state’s case in the most respectful but firm way.
He either REALLY didn’t do it OR he just got away with the perfect murder. Just my opinion and everyone has their own opinion and has a right to them. I was hoping in all, that the right decision was made. That’s all one can ask for
I agree. I personally think he did it.
@@kimisokool 100%
@@kimisokool me too! I guess we’ll just have to be happy with the short amount of time he did do in jail and the fact that his very theatrical attorney probably took every penny he had left. Now he’ll have to find some other poor sucker to take care of him.
Absolutely did it 😡🤬
He REALLY did do it and he did NOT commit the perfect murder. I agree there was enough reasonable doubt to warrant a not guilty verdict which does not mean he is innocent. What it means is he got away with murdering his wife.
A 'Not Guilty' verdict in a court case is not necessarily the same thing as 'Innocent'. In this case as in some others, only those present at the time of death know the answer.
In this case, this dude is innocent!

Brilliant Defence Lawyer and her Team. I was on the fence. I wish Mat all the best. Justice was served.
Fabulous case tried!!! Jurors thank you!! Matt I hope you can move forward on a positive note. Emily Bless you and your family 💜
You can ‘think’ he did it all you want, but the evidence in this case was weak. The fact that the judge took time to consider the motion for judgement of acquittal is very telling, as this is usually denied outright. Had this man been convicted on this thin evidence, it would set a poor precedent in our criminal justice system. We don’t rely on innuendo and speculation here. We require evidence beyond a reasonable doubt, and in my opinion it was not even a close call. I hope the people complaining about the jury verdict are never on trial for a crime.
my thoughts exactly 💯
Well, I hope they are. Murder, while I'm hoping.
Awe superb... Great news x❤️
This judge is a class act. A legend already. He even wants to get to know the jurors.
Followed this one from start to finish, justice was served. State had no case.
This totally broke me when I seen Matt break down after the Not Guilty Verdict - these Prosecutors who feel he Killed Emily and Staged Murder - you need your Heads Read, I knew you would be walking out sulking like a Kid with no Christmas Presents!! I Prey Matt can now move forward with his Life and be able to Grieve for his Son and His Wife now that this ridiculousness is over.

At least he had an all inclusive detox ..
I watched every second of this case that I was able to. I flipped and flopped a few times but I’m convinced they got it right. There wasn’t anything tying him to her disappearance and death. The dogs didn’t set off his house. He didn’t have scratches at all. He wasn’t going to go down that ravine to where she was found. He didn’t have anything to do with it. Now, 1) of two things did happen. Ether she did go to the woods to find peace. Picked a special day to her to do it and did it. Used a cord she could hide in her pocket. Or she was killed by the person/s who live in that house where the dogs went. Like the defense lawyer said, “ I ask people who I think might hurt them self if they are thinking about it. Not someone who actually wouldn’t.” Her friends asked her constantly. Y’all don’t know her or the defendant so stop being know it all and so sure of your selfs. Have some humility.
This case should be a lesson for all. Anyone even watching or commenting on this case better be careful. Pros may think your guilty of murder since you watched this trial. State should have NEVER brought these charges. This man has lost a year of his life and tons of money due to their imagination. Be careful out there.
I Am Spartacus, I mean Matt Moore.
I hope someone sets up a GoFundMe for him.
Regardless of your opinion on the verdict, Diane is a zealous attorney that gives criminal defense her all. Theories that the layman may have never thought about, Diane brought to the forefront to plant reasonable doubt from Day 1.
Eh. It’s more like she reaches and does theatrics.
@@Seashellsbytheseashore21 And the prosecution cries and has stompy feet hissy fits. So dignified and professional. Barf!
Her closing was EXCELLENT !
When I watch a trial, I always try to determine what I have learned from it. In this one, that cord used and the way it was connected for hanging surprised me. I thought that connector would have pulled out of that hole just as soon as her body weight was added. So I learned that this is another example of where one should never trust the “pull out” theory for safety.
Had he been found guilty, we all should have been terrified that a prosecution and law enforcement agency could bring forth charges of MURDER with such tunnel vision without literally even one tiny piece of physical evidence....NONE, NOTHING, ZERO. You need to PROVE that someone did the crime. I don't care how much they think "he MUST have done it" "who else would have" "listen to his words" etc etc etc. I'd be terrified had they found him guilty. Menashe said it best..."We have to be better", "the system has to be better".
You could see the genuine relief from him and happiness from Diane as she truly believes he didn’t do it. She is an awesome defense attorney!!
You could tell by her closing that she has never believed in a client as much as this one. In 24 years she’s never had a harder trial. She has always had evidence and facts to fight towards. This case is solely speculation. 100%.
Personally, I thought he was guilty. But they couldn’t prove it beyond a reasonable doubt.
WHY....?..Intuition?
@@thomasthomaswezwick8719 based on the evidence. His interview, his actions, other testimonies of her loved ones or friends.
@@kimisokool I agree with you! My intuition on day 1, hour 1, said hes guilty. The evidence I saw throughout the trial solidified my intuition.
The phone logs, no searching by Matt, he made a digital trail quickly, for his alibi.
Matt was denying he did anything to Emily BEFORE her remains were found. He never even considered a 3rd party murder.
There was a lot of evidence in this case. People want more of the direct evidence over the circumstantial evidence. I get it. But not each Case can be laid out pretty with a bow on it.
I believe Matt is guilty of Emily's death.
I hope they can find and convict the person who did murder Emily..since the coroner did rule her death as a homicide.
You think he killed her??? What is your hypothesis??
I hope he really and truly is innocent. Only he knows the truth and he has to live with the consequences if he did it.
Belive me he is innocent
I had a feeling that verdict was coming. Way too many questions in my mind were left unanswered by the state.
Indeed. I would have bee more inclined to give weight to their other evidence if they hadn't tried to pad their weak case with silliness like the checks, the looking at murder cases, "gee, a married couple had a fight 2 weeks ago" and the absolutely meaningless moving the cooler, like that was some sort of GOTTCHA!
My heart is so broken for Matt. He was never able to grieve for his wife, spent so much time in jail, lost finances etc, and he is and always was INNOCENT!! I hope he's allowed to sue EVERYONE who was part of this injustice!!
This was a correct decision. Matt Moore might not have said the things or did the things most husbands would but that doesn’t prove anything. His attorney is one of the best defense attorneys I have ever witnessed. With someone not as good as his attorney an innocent man would have likely been convicted and sent to prison for life. I hope Emily’s family can find peace and comfort
I 100% guarantee that if this was a lesser defense team ...he goes to prison forever. It's why judges need to stop these weak cases because the scales are just to stacked on the states side and it needs a referee when the state doesn't bring evidence of certain aspects of a crime.
I hasn’t heard of this case. I’m in the U.K. but usually watch US trials with some idea of the case. So In effect I watched as a juror and felt like the prosecution were just hoping to make square pegs fit in a round hole. Reading comments early on that people had decided he killed Emily and his SON worried me that they jury might have those bizarre thoughts too. It’s worrying that a case came to trial with so little evidence.
So so pleased🙏 I've been with this poor man the whole way and am super pleased that a huge miscarriage of justice has been avoided! Thank goodness the jury were sensible people and not like the nasty tolls online! 🙏
It’s fantastic.. I was a little worried and just thought, I hope the jury see through this fake circumstance crap, but you do never know what other people think... As soon as Dianne had her closing, it was then a certainty for me. So Powerful.. I loved it. Passionate 👌 truthful and correct.
@@stevenprice6957 fake circumstances? 🤣 oh lord
k m yeah the whole thing was faked evidence.. lord,?? He’s definitely fake Nothing was slowly turned into something then at the end, there something was absolutely nothing.
@@Seashellsbytheseashore21 Cooler moved? Red herring. Checks written? Red herring. They had a loud fight WEEKS before? Red herring. Murder cases? Red herring. Unsure timeline early morning hours? Red herring.
He said "gone"? so weak
He said "down"? There was no other place to go.
He used past tense? I said my friend and her son text from different rooms and I FOUND that weird. They still do it and I still find it weird.
Plus EVERYBODY was worried about Emily's depression, asking many times if she was planning to hurt herself. No one asks that of happy people.
No evidence he was down in those thick woods. I walk on hiking trails, not through thick underbrush, and I come home covered in forest "stuff".
NO EVIDENCE he killed her. LOTS of EVIDENCE she killed herself. The hand around the ankle says it all.
He was a weird guy but i believe this was correct. His defense attorney was amazing.
You're beautiful if that picture is you! JS
Omg..this us what is wrong with our just
Ice system..people like you
@@theltwins5434 Likewise!
I've known Matt since he was 13 yrs old,I'm one of his best friends and he is not weird, he is one of the kindest people I have ever known. He called every day after each hearing and according to him the jury had more to look at than was in the trial like all of their text messages and Emily's therapy.
He's crazy. He's smug. He's cold and calculating. Now, weird. Sigh.
If I’m ever accused of something, I would want Diane to defend me! A sad case, but the judge and defence were incredibly fair.
why would she feel gratification from getting a guilty man off? Tricking jurors, lying to admonish a killer, is not what Justice was to stand for. Money is her motivation. Poor Emily, murdered by a psychopath and no punishment for her murderer.
Thank you for seeing what really went on.....
Bloody agree... menashe wants fame
Aren't most attorneys motivated by money to begin with? Except those who work for various Legal Aid groups, perhaps the ACLU, and other "social aid" agencies. Just my $0.03. (Inflation, you know?)
This case is the perfect example of how a jury system should work. That is wonderful to witness 🙏
RIP Emily 🙏
Horrifying
Horrifying the state would try to prosecute with absolutely NO evidence.
Congratulations sir, I truely believe that you are innocent.
So happy for this verdict! I watched the whole trial. There simply was not enough evidence to prove him guilty. I must say the defense attorney was outstanding! I feel like we’ll never know what really happened to Emily, may she Rest In Peace, and may all her loved ones find healing ❤️
We know she didn’t kill herself.
@@KilimnikGenya She killed herself. Sad
@@thelittlepodperson5722 : It’s mathematically impossible but go on.
Congratulations Matt I am so sorry you had to go through this traumatic treatment especially after learning your wife has died. I really hope you’ve been able to move forward in life . Most likely you need therapy after what you’ve endured losing your sons and wife .
Thank you, and yes on some therapy
His lawyer did a fantastic job, she is good.
Hopefully this means they have to open back up the investigation into Emily's death so that they find some more concrete evidence as to what happened.
These detectives in the beginning find nothing.. they slowly tried to turn this nothing into something.. In the end, there something was nothing.
@Mane Gal But they DID search Matt's shoes and clothing where they didn't find dirt, leaves, sticky burrs, snags or tears, blood, poison ivy oil, or any witnesses saying he came or went from that area.
But, granted, the searchers were as incompetent as the prosecutors.
@@thelittlepodperson5722
They didn't search them until he had ..had time to was each piece of clothing and his shoes and then wear them again so that nothing would be found that would have put him at the scene. This case was handled poorly romancing the beginning. The fact of him changing the times he woke up to how long it took him to go back to sleep. To in the first and second interviews referto Emily in the past tense. In each of the interviews he talk about Emily being meticulous about keeping everything clean and that everything in the house had its place ...he almost sounded like it made him angry that she was maybe a neat freak and wanted everything picked up and put away. Remember the cooler and the big deal he made about the orange cord laying on top of the cooler ..just on and on that Emily would have never left that laying there..or left the cooler sitting there. Dud you pay close attention to the things that were changed in the garage during the first interview.. every time Matthew and the first officers interview each time they went back into the garage something was different.,,did you spot the red flashlight that wasn't there then boom it was there. Tell me how many times did Matthew refer to Emily in the past tense in the first and second interviews? What was his fascination with his continuous need to tell each offer and detective about how small Emily was.,why was it so important for him to keep reiterating that. If you were matting your phone just kept beeping ring to the point that the officer asked you what is that ringing and Matthew saying oh its just my phone. If your wife was missing would you not be looking at each call or answering them in case they were Emily or smarting to get in touch with you about your wife. During this first interview his phone dud this through the entire interview. The police department failed Emily.
The State didn’t even know their own theory of this case….. We should all be Frightened that the State wanted to take this man’s freedom away on such “speculation “ - not to mention our tax dollars wasted.
I’m really happy for him, there was no evidence that tied him to her death, her fingers were gripped around her own ankle meaning she wasn’t staged in that position once she was already dead. I felt that he got really depressed and started drinking a lot when his son passed and that’s why he was in that room until late in the am…I think he was embarrassed to admit it was a regular occurrence and not a one off. God will straighten him out if he was to blame, but I really think justice was served in this verdict.
I didn’t even hear the hands and ankle part. But I felt like he was innocent from the start
Oh, THANK YOU! I knew there was something else I was forgetting. No one would think to put her fingers around her ankle, which they CLEARLY WERE!
@@thelittlepodperson5722 yea he would’ve had to force her to stay down or had enough time outside of rigor mortise for him to manipulate her fingers and somehow make her fingers stay in a tight grip. Once I saw that picture I def felt he had nothing to do with it. I think it would’ve been so cruel to put him in prison for something that wasn’t proven he did, right after losing his son in the very same way. She could’ve at least wrote a note just in case bc the husband is always the first place they look.
@@traciepatterson9264 yea I was doubtful but thought I guess I should hear the evidence and see if he did do it. You should look at the pic of how they found her, that’s where I saw her hands
i would LOVE to hear their discussions afterwards.
I am shocked that this even got to trial, i am happy i do not live in Delaware county because if this case is any example of the justice system there..... my advice to anyone living there would be, move and move fast.... because apparently you do not need evidence to charge someone with murder in Delaware County Ohio lol..... I do not know if he is innocent or guilty but what i do know is that Emily deserved better.... either way.... if they truly believed he is guilty, they completely failed Emily by bringing such a weak case to trial....again, she deserved better....
Everyone's bias for his lawyer is showing. He was the only person with motive and the knowledge to stage her the way she was staged. Sad.
At least the next potential victim will be warned by a google search.....a very sad day yesterday for Emily's friends and family.
@@veggiegirl3340 agreed

Common sense has given him justice. He can now finally mourn over the death of his wife. I wish you find happiness again and all the best, Mat.
