  • "The Prosecutors" double episode:
    Ep 1 - Robert Peernock was an expert in pyrotechnics who knew how to blow things up. But when he tried to kill his wife and daughter by rigging their car to explode, something backfired, and his daughter survived. She testified against him. Bringing Peernock to justice would be no walk in the park for Los Angeles County Assistant District Attorney Craig Richman.
    Ep 2 - Salvatore Thomas Ruscitti, a former policeman, was a well-liked and respected southern California car dealer. When he was shot and killed on his doorstep one September evening in 1988, friends and family began pointing at the class action lawsuit that Salvatore had been spearheading against his former employers.

      Yup. That has always been one of the biggest problems with our judicial system. With the way this video showed the case it was a slam dunk that he was guilty with numerous witnesses testifying that they heard him plotting it...

      What if the lawyer sees there are massive shortfalls in the prosercutors argument? Or has proof that the prosercution is using non admissable evidence or supposed evidence and can therefore crush the prosercutors case? The defense lawyer is surly not there to prove his cliant guilty when the prosercutors are failing. If a defense lawyers then his job is surly defence. Yes he may be there also to ensure a fair trail. But that is in my opinion likly not to be the only job function. I am not in favor at all in allowing assassins to get away with murder. So I am just discussing and not looking to argue but I realise I am placing a legal argument to you. As I am aware of the Jack Goodman cases where he defended the 1960s Antonio Spilotro and got that multiple homicidal psychopath off. A lot of people thought that what happened when Spilotro got off was wrong. But the defence lawyer (A Chicago Mob Lawyer) defended his own actions afterwards saying he did right as his job was to defend his cliant and the FBI prosercutors case was so flimsy that they failed. Of couse many would argue that defending and winning a case for a guilty murderer is immoral and a travesty of justice. I agree that that is so. But the lawyer's job is not to play in to the hands of prosercutors who are supposed to have air tight cases and prove beyond a shadow of doubt. I am not a USA citizen or in the USA. But I have studied some law as well as USA law. I believe that if the prosercutors have not got enough evidence or an air tight case then the law is that they should not be in a Court presenting a deficient case. It may be USA law due to their 'double Jepody' clause.

    I cannot believe it took the jury that long to reach their verdict.Six whole hours.😖
    After all that entire courtroom drama, the witnesses even his own testimony and theatrics.
    I wouldn't even need 15 minutes and they would have mostly been spend on making myself coffee and hearing the different charges brought against him and then the last 5 minutes spend on poling the other 11 jurors.
    Guilty on everything we could possibly convict him on. Even the fact that he had been stealing our precious oxygen in that same room as us.

    I have now watched these shows one after another for years, but Pernock? he takes the crown, what an incredibly devious twisted and sick creature drug up from the Pitts of hell and he claimed to be a husband and a father.
    I can understand people killing their spouse but to kill their own daughter and not just kill her, no he made it a drawn out sick perverted manner.
    I honestly can't even imagine doing that to someone you would intensely hate but to your own child?
    And then the way he killed her mother not just whack her over the head no systematically hammering that tire iron on the exact same place just to make sure the entire skull was beyond any help.
    I wish I was Stephen King and could use his words to do the horror of this whole thing it's justice.
    Not even King has ever come up with an individual that has a mind so unbelievably contorted it would not even recognisable by the devil himself.
    I cannot even stop trying to describe the impression this thing of a man has left on me. 🤢
    Thank God my father was just a horrible father but he was a shining star compared to this one.

      I went with a manager of 9 small dealerships for 10 years. As time went on I began to see what a sleezy business it was. Going outside one night to retrieve something from my car and I just happened to notice an 8 ball of cocaine on the walkway. His sloping to a downward spiral, it all made sense. I flushed the coke down the toilet. I watched him for two days attempting to look nonchalant as he obviously was looking for it. He knew if he asked things weren’t going to be good in our relationship. We broke up when he finally got the balls to ask me if I had seen it. That was the third day. Of course throughout the years I met a lot of sales persons. Pretty sleezy if I do say so myself. It is no wonder there are so many jokes about used cars salesmen.

      2. i love how in a case where a bunch of men conspired to murder a guy you still manage to blame a woman who had zero involvement in anything lmfao. the outcome would have been the exact same had the husband gotten the door, and then who would've been to blame? misogyny is one hell of a drug, jfc
