Inside The NEW Charges Against Barry Morphew: Defense Attorney Questions If Jury Will Believe Description: Barry Morphew is facing new murder charges in 2025—nearly three years after his first case was dismissed. This time, prosecutors are armed with something they didn't have before: Suzanne Morphew's remains, discovered in a shallow grave, and forensic analysis showing BAM—a rare animal tranquilizer—was present in her bones. But does this forensic discovery change the game, or are prosecutors still standing on shaky ground? In this episode, we're joined by Defense Attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis to break down the anatomy of the new charges. How strong is the forensic evidence, really? And will a jury be willing to convict without a weapon, a confession, or a confirmed cause of death? We dig into the differences between the original case and the 2025 re-indictment. What new strategies might the prosecution use this time around? And how might the defense punch holes in a narrative that's still largely circumstantial? Eric offers his legal take on how jurors typically react to technical forensic evidence—especially rare substances like BAM that carry emotional weight but can be attacked for lack of direct sourcing. We also explore the legal risk of retrying a case after the original prosecution team was disbarred for discovery violations. Can the new team escape the shadow of those failures, or will the defense use them to build a new layer of doubt? If you want to understand the legal chess match behind the headlines, this episode is for you. High stakes, high scrutiny, and a justice system trying to clean up its own mess.

An Inside Look At Barry Morphew's Secret Deleted Texts Description: Barry Morphew told police his marriage was “great.” But Suzanne Morphew's phone—and what Barry allegedly tried to erase from it—tells a very different story. In this episode, we go deep with Defense Attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis to examine the deleted digital evidence prosecutors say could reveal Barry's motive for murder. At the center of this forensic puzzle is a critical message Suzanne sent just three days before her disappearance: “I'm done. Let's figure this out civilly.” Investigators say Barry deleted the message—but took a screenshot of it. Why? Was it an emotional trigger? A digital souvenir? Or something more calculated? We explore what these deletions reveal about Barry's potential state of mind in the days leading up to Suzanne's vanishing. Could this be an example of psychological unraveling—or legal narrative control? Eric Faddis brings his unique expertise as both a former prosecutor and defense attorney to analyze how prosecutors use deleted data as circumstantial proof, and how defense teams attack that logic. We also examine the broader digital trail: text logs, phone activity, and why Barry's phone went into airplane mode shortly after Suzanne's last selfie was sent. Was it a coincidence—or part of a cover-up? In a world where our phones are our diaries, our alibis, and our confessions, Barry's deleted texts may be more damning than anything he said aloud. Join us as we dissect how technology, timing, and motive collide in this chilling case—and what it means for the upcoming trial.

In this episode of Clocking Out, we meet Rachel Humphrey — a former trial attorney who once believed she'd spend her entire life arguing cases in court. But after two decades in law and a major cross-country move, Rachel found herself at a crossroads: unfulfilled and reevaluating her life's direction. When her longtime nanny unexpectedly resigned, Rachel made a bold decision — she quit her job without a backup plan, determined to rediscover what truly fueled her.That leap led her somewhere she never expected: the hospitality industry. Through a serendipitous conversation, Rachel discovered that the skills she honed in the courtroom — advocacy, negotiation, and leadership — could translate far beyond the law. She soon joined AAHOA, the largest hotel owners association in the country, and ultimately rose to interim CEO.Throughout her career, Rachel quietly carried a lifelong battle with self-doubt — often feeling the need to prove she belonged. But time and again, others saw something in her before she did. Their faith, combined with her relentless curiosity and drive, helped her rise to heights she never imagined for herself.From that experience, a new mission emerged: Fueled by a passion for equity, Rachel went on to found the Women in Hospitality Leadership Alliance, a consortium dedicated to amplifying women's voices across the industry. Today, she mentors rising leaders, co-hosts a podcast spotlighting the human side of leadership, and speaks openly about reinvention, resilience, and learning to bet on yourself.Rachel's story is a powerful reminder that we're often more capable than we think — and that the most fulfilling chapters begin the moment we step outside the story we thought we had to live.Connect with Rachel at:Website: www.whlalliance.org / www.ItsPersonalStories.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rachel-a-humphreyFollow Raymond: LinkedIn: Raymond LeeInstagram: @raymondlee.coTiktok: @clockingoutpodX: @hrentrepreneurYoutube: @clockingoutwithraymondleeClick Here to become a guest on Clocking Out

Latest 2A news and current events, self defense successful defense in Portland Oregon shooting caught on tape.

In this podcast Jeff discusses a moment he never dreamed would occur: Iran's nuclear facilities were destroyed by America and Iran is finally punished for its global terror. Every President from Carter through Biden looked the other way or appeased Iran's terrorism — Trump did not. Jeff eats some crow but points out the MAGA leading voices who sided with the Muslim terror state that tried to kill our President. And an update on Jeff's federal fraud sentencing before his fraternity brother. It was a hoot, it was surreal and it brought back a lot of memories.

Defense attorney Joe Tacopina calls in to delve into his busy schedule, including upcoming trials, before him and Sid sidetrack into light-hearted discussions about music preferences and personal anecdotes. The conversation shifts toward mutual acquaintances, such as Vinny Viola's accomplishments with the Stanley Cup Champion Florida Panthers, and ends with a deep dive into the P-Diddy trial, discussing potential outcomes and the intricacies of legal proceedings.

This week Jeff opens with the long-awaited Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear infrastructure, a dazzling military operation years in the making. But instead of support for Israel, Jeff is stunned by the response: hatred not only from the far left but now pouring out of MAGA's biggest names. Yes, the Trump-right has joined Hamas and the progressive left in their obsessive Jew hatred, and Jeff is seething.Trump, meanwhile, couldn't resist taking credit for the Israeli success after the fact, even though he reportedly tried to block the strike for months. And if he actually helped, why didn't he greenlight American B-52s to finish the job on the underground nuke sites? Why is he trying to make a huge deal when the world's biggest sponsor of terror is on its knees?Also this week: a tale of how a young lawyer buying his first suits comes full circle 30 years later, this time as a man paying cash with 44 tailored suits under his belt. Plus, Jeff faces a federal judge he went to college with and admits, despite all of his own accomplishments, the judge is the better man.As always, Jeff pulls no punches. Not for MAGA. Not for Trump. Not for the far left. And certainly not for anyone siding with the world's worst terror regime.

Karen Read Closing Arguments In Full From Defense Attorney Alan Jackson In this comprehensive episode, we present defense attorney Alan Jackson's complete closing argument in the Karen Read murder retrial, where he attempts to counter the prosecution's evidence that Read struck and killed her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, with her SUV in January 2022. Jackson, known for his theatrical courtroom style, delivered an hour and twenty-six minute presentation that challenged the Commonwealth's case while the prosecution maintains Read was intoxicated and left O'Keefe to die in the snow. Jackson opened by repeating three times: "There was no collision," directly contradicting the prosecution's physical evidence including taillight fragments found at the scene and damage to Read's vehicle. The defense attorney focused heavily on attacking the credibility of lead investigator Michael Proctor, who was terminated for misconduct after the first trial. However, prosecutors argue that Proctor's personal failings don't negate the physical evidence or witness testimony supporting their case. Jackson attempted to explain away Read's own statements at the scene, where multiple first responders heard her say "I hit him." While Jackson characterized these as confused questions, prosecutors maintain these were admissions of guilt from someone who knew what she had done. The defense presented an alternative theory involving a fight inside the Albert home, though prosecutors note that O'Keefe's phone data shows he never entered the house and stopped moving outside where his body was found. Jackson concluded dramatically: "Find Karen Read not guilty, not guilty, not guilty." Throughout the retrial, prosecutors have presented forensic evidence, witness testimony, and Read's own angry voicemails to O'Keefe that night, building their case that she struck him during a drunken rage. This episode provides viewers with Jackson's full defense strategy as the jury weighs whether the prosecution has proven guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. #KarenRead #AlanJackson #ClosingArguments #JohnOKeefe #MurderTrial #CourtTV #BostonPolice #CantonMA #TrueCrime #Retrial #CommonwealthVsRead #JusticeForJohnOKeefe #Prosecution #Defense #TrialCoverage #VehicularHomicide #NorfolkCounty #LegalAnalysis #BigBreakdown Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?  Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/_U9Gv2ieltoDay 29 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on June 9, 2025. On week 8 of the trial, will the jury get the case this week to deliberate?Special Prosecutor, Hanke Brennan, asks Dr. Wolfe, the Director of Accident Reconstruction at ARCCA, about the appearance of holes on the back of Mr. O'Keefe's hoodie and whether these holes are consistent with road rash or other damage. He asked him if he'd ever consider if Mr. O'Keefe may have fallen or landed on his back. Dr. Wolf stated he did not consider whether Mr. O'Keefe had fallen or landed on his back. Defense Attorney, Robert Alessi, asked for a Mistrial with Prejudice due to Intentional Misconduct by the prosecution regarding questioning about the hoodie and its damage. The defense argued the prosecution intentionally left out evidence about the holes on the back of the hoodie being clippings from the crime lab. The judge did not grant a mistrial but agreed to instructed the jury to disregard the questions and give a strong admonishment about the prosecution. When it came time to it, the Judge did not give a strong admonishment or admit the pictures into evidence. At the end of the day, the defense said that they will address this the following day.A Voir Dire of Dr. Laposata was conducted and Judge Cannone ruled she cannot testify that the wounds on John O'Keefe's arm were from a dog, but she will be able to testify about the original opinions about the cause and manner of death. Direct Examination continues on Day 30.RESOURCESWhat You Need to Know About the Retrial - https://youtu.be/89Jpa8vz1RQ Karen Read Retrial Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKOJlfL__9F027hlETVU-vo Karen Read Trial - 2024 - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKUeCUzApgsEuQRXu5IXeTSThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacy

Big Breakdown: Karen Read on Trial: Psychologist, FBI & Defense Attorney Tear It All Down In this explosive episode of the Hidden Killers Podcast, host Tony Brueski is joined by a powerful expert panel to break down the psychological and legal layers of the Karen Read trial. Featuring licensed psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, and former prosecutor turned defense attorney Eric Faddis, this deep-dive explores what may really be going on behind Karen Read's statements, courtroom behavior, and post-incident interviews. This isn't just speculation. Shavaun Scott brings clinical insight into traits of narcissistic rage and borderline personality disorder, helping us understand how fear of abandonment, emotional volatility, and ego protection could explain some of Karen Read's erratic and contradictory reactions—especially after the death of John O'Keefe. Meanwhile, Dreeke and Faddis unpack how Read's public statements, contradictions, and refusal to accept accountability fit classic behavioral profiles. They also explore how her post-crash interviews and courtroom demeanor may reflect self-preservation above grief—often viewed by jurors as cold detachment. From the infamous “Did I hit him?” quote to her public targeting of alleged conspirators, the experts explain why her shifting narratives and finger-pointing may backfire legally—and signal deeper psychological distress. Is she collapsing under guilt, or masterfully manipulating perception? You decide. This video also unpacks the dwindling FKR movement, the cult-like behavior of Karen's die-hard supporters, and how social media has shaped the courtroom's atmosphere. Whether you believe Karen Read is guilty or not, this is the psychological and legal breakdown you don't want to miss. #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #PsychologicalAnalysis #TrueCrimeExperts #HiddenKillers #NarcissisticRage #TrialBreakdown #FBIBehaviorAnalysis #KarenReadTrial #ForensicPsychology Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?  Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

Big Breakdown: Karen Read on Trial: Psychologist, FBI & Defense Attorney Tear It All Down In this explosive episode of the Hidden Killers Podcast, host Tony Brueski is joined by a powerful expert panel to break down the psychological and legal layers of the Karen Read trial. Featuring licensed psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, and former prosecutor turned defense attorney Eric Faddis, this deep-dive explores what may really be going on behind Karen Read's statements, courtroom behavior, and post-incident interviews. This isn't just speculation. Shavaun Scott brings clinical insight into traits of narcissistic rage and borderline personality disorder, helping us understand how fear of abandonment, emotional volatility, and ego protection could explain some of Karen Read's erratic and contradictory reactions—especially after the death of John O'Keefe. Meanwhile, Dreeke and Faddis unpack how Read's public statements, contradictions, and refusal to accept accountability fit classic behavioral profiles. They also explore how her post-crash interviews and courtroom demeanor may reflect self-preservation above grief—often viewed by jurors as cold detachment. From the infamous “Did I hit him?” quote to her public targeting of alleged conspirators, the experts explain why her shifting narratives and finger-pointing may backfire legally—and signal deeper psychological distress. Is she collapsing under guilt, or masterfully manipulating perception? You decide. This video also unpacks the dwindling FKR movement, the cult-like behavior of Karen's die-hard supporters, and how social media has shaped the courtroom's atmosphere. Whether you believe Karen Read is guilty or not, this is the psychological and legal breakdown you don't want to miss. #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #PsychologicalAnalysis #TrueCrimeExperts #HiddenKillers #NarcissisticRage #TrialBreakdown #FBIBehaviorAnalysis #KarenReadTrial #ForensicPsychology Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?  Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

After a brief Direct Examination by Special Prosecutor, Hank Brennan, of their Accident Reconstructionist, Dr. Welcher, Cross Examination took up the whole day and will continue on Day 23. Defense Attorney, Robert Alessi, ross-examination was rigorous and focused on challenging the credibility, methodology, and conclusions of the Commonwealth's expert witness. Dr. Welcher was repeatedly admonished by the court for looking at his computer and searching for information during the cross-examination, rather than answering directly from memory.Alessi questioned Dr. Welchre about the significant amount his firm, Aperture, was being paid by the Norfolk County District Attorney's Office ($325,000), and the details surrounding the purchase and sale of a Lexus exemplar for testing. The defense sought to highlight potential bias due to financial incentives.Alessi challenged inconsistencies in Dr. Welchre's testimony, such as the distance the Lexus traveled in reverse during a test (initially said to be 53 feet, then 87 feet), and the explanation of the 8 mph threshold for tail light breakage.Alessi delved into Dr. Welcher's use of data and images from Trooper Paul's report, questioning the extent to which Dr. Welcher relied on that information in his analysis. There was a dispute about a drone image and other diagrams, leading to a "Voir dire" (examination outside the presence of the jury) to clarify the sources of these materials.The voir dire aimed to clarify the sources of Dr. Welcher's materials and to determine the extent to which he relied on Trooper Paul's report or other evidence. It highlighted the defense's effort to question the independence of Dr. Welcher's analysis and the Commonwealth's attempt to defend it. The voir dire concluded with plans to continue the cross-examination the following day, with the understanding that time was limited due to a juror's scheduling issue.RESOURCESWhat You Need to Know About the Retrial - https://youtu.be/89Jpa8vz1RQ Karen Read Retrial Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKOJlfL__9F027hlETVU-vo Karen Read Trial - 2024 - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKUeCUzApgsEuQRXu5IXeTSThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacy

What's Really Happening in the Kohberger Case? #kohberger #idaho4case #Continuence In this episode we question why Ann Taylor Kohberger's lead defense attorney is asking for a continuence. Is it because she has not prepared enough to be ready for the start of the Trial, or is she overwhelmed by the amount of evidence. In addition it maybe a strategy move, in any event the 40 page continuence document will be considered by Judge Hippler.

Involving court delays, individual jurors questioned at sidebar, and a shift in witness order. Judge Cannone addressed the jury when they came back from the inquiry and asked them if they refrained from doing research or independent investigations. She noted that she had already asked them about discussing the case with anyone or seeing, hearing or reading information about the case. Their seats were rearranged and the court day moved forward.Dr. Aizik Wolf, a neuro brain surgeon, testified about the injuries to John O'Keefe's head, stating they were consistent with a fall backward. The doctor also clarified that other facial lacerations would not have been caused by this type of fall.Scientific evidence from Christina Hanley, a Trace Analyst, a state crime lab, analyzed the glass and plastic fragments. She linked clear and red plastic pieces from John O'Keefe's clothing to the tail light housing. Defense Attorney, Alan Jackson, presented a demonstrative exhibit showing which evidence items matched and which didn't. The ones that didn't match were collected by Trooper Michael Proctor.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/IJgD247smlQDay 19 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on May 20, 2025. Defense Attorney, Robert Alessi, continued cross examining Shanon Burgess. Questions arose regarding the accuracy of dates and timeline in the expert's analysis, with errors of 24 hours. Burgess kept saying that the event happened the night of January 29-30th when in reality is it was January 28-29th. Shanon's analysis of call logs, text streams, and vehicle data was scrutinized. There were concerns about the use of approximate times and potential confirmation bias. The expert did not have the raw data for the techstream information, he instead got it from Welcher's report. During redirect examination, Special Prosecutor, Hank Brennan, attempted to clarify Burgess' credentials and data interpretation. Pointing out that he didn't need that degree to perform his job and that work life balance made it a challenge to complete his degree.On Re-Cross Examination, Alessi pointed out that in a federal court filing in Texas, Burgess' resume stated he was anticipating a BGS - Bachelor of General Science in 2024. There is no Bachelor of General Science degree in Alabama and he has been pursuing this degree since 2008. The use of the Commonwealths presenting video and audio clips, especially the voicemail, appears to be related to establishing a timeline of Karen Read's movements and actions around the time of John O'Keefe's death. The defense may use it to show her actions were consistent, while the prosecution may use it to point out inconsistencies. The 12:25/12:30 timeframe she gives for John's passing may be challenged given her audio from the voicemail at 12:41AM.Later in the day, Christina Hanley, a trace analyst expert witness from the lab testified about a mechanical match on glass. The court adjourned early after sidebar discussions. We'll get back to her on Day 20.RESOURCESRetrial Day 10 - Voicemails - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2vEF0vxG2wWhat You Need to Know About the Retrial - https://youtu.be/89Jpa8vz1RQ Karen Read Retrial Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKOJlfL__9F027hlETVU-vo Karen Read Trial - 2024 - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKUeCUzApgsEuQRXu5IXeTSThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacy

May 21, 2025 ~ The Justice Department has initiated a criminal investigation into UnitedHealth Group for potential Medicare fraud. Defense Attorney and Legal Analyst Jeremy Rosenthal talks with Lloyd, Jamie, and Chris about what criminal violations are included and the substantial penalties if found guilty.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/Hi_HNpRVySADay 18 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on May 19, 2025. Shanon Burgess, a Digital Forensic Examiner from Aperture, is witness number 35. His testimony revolves around correlating the timing of events from Karen Read's Lexus vehicle data and John O'Keefe's phone location data.Burgess provided detailed explanations of Lexus infotainment system data (Lexus clock and techstream data), key cycles, triggering events (like a three-point turn), and how this data was correlated with the data from John O'Keefe's iPhone. Time variances between the Lexus clock and the iPhone clock and the significance of these variances in relation to when O'Keefe's phone was locked.Defense Attorney, Robert Alessi, strongly challenged Burgess's credibility during cross examination by highlighting discrepancies and potential misrepresentations in his CV (resume), Aperture website information, and LinkedIn profile concerning his educational background and degrees. Questions were also raised about a report Burgess submitted on May 8th, at the request of the prosecution. Burgess stated he did it on his own initiative due to the report from the Defense's expert. It was thought that he did it at the request of the prosecutor but attributed the "per your request" statement to a copy-paste error.Alessi further challenged Burgess's understanding of data storage (megabits vs. megabytes) and the completeness of data extractions from the vehicle's chips. This could significantly impact the jury's perception of Shanon's testimony and the prosecution's case. The errors and inconsistencies in his statements, reports, and qualifications raise serious questions about the reliability of his expert opinions. There's more cross examination to come on Day 19.RESOURCESWhat You Need to Know About the Retrial - https://youtu.be/89Jpa8vz1RQ Karen Read Retrial Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKOJlfL__9F027hlETVU-vo Karen Read Trial - 2024 - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKUeCUzApgsEuQRXu5IXeTSThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacy

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/P_Lo2vXvHyMDay 17 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on May 16, 2025. The court addressed juror conduct issues, with a jurors making facial expressions and muttering. A stipulation was read regarding State Police troopers present at the autopsy, specifically noting Troopers Keefe and Watson were present, not Former Trooper Michael Proctor.Andre Porto, the Forensic Scientist, testimony revolved around DNA evidence found on a piece of glass and the tail light, with John O'Keefe's DNA and DNA from two unknown individuals being present. The defense strategy focused on questioning the thoroughness of the investigation and emphasizing that unknown DNA samples were not tested against other individuals of interest like Brian Higgins. Legal arguments arose regarding the chain of custody of evidence and delays in its submission. The judge ruled on objections and addressed issues related to rebuttal witnesses and ARCA expert testimony. There were discussions about new information and reports from experts causing potential time shifts and debates over whether this information was truly new or if it was previously disclosed.The day ended with testimony from Ash Vallier, a Forensic Scientist who pieced together the tail light, with discussions about which pieces fit and which did not. Some items from evidence bags were not fitting together mechanically and other items from different bags were fitting together. Defense Attorney, David Yannetti, crossed Vallier, highlighting potential issues with the chain of custody and who had access to evidence, particularly with Trooper Proctor. Trooper Michael Proctor was identified as submitting clothing evidence to the lab six weeks after the incident and the person who brought in the all of the pieces in the dash 7 series that fit together. Judge Cannone addressed concerns about new expert reports from Aperture, ruling that they were not grounds for undue surprise or prejudice but were ample ground for cross-examination by the defense. The Judge also addressed the ARCCA expert issue, allowing limited rebuttal testimony of Aperture only as to the new opinions by ARCCA from their May 7th report. The Judge stated the defense could recall witnesses under certain circumstances and addressed the long weekend break, stating it would give the defense the time they had requested.

Bryan Kohberger had a hearing on April 9th, 2025 to go over Motions in Limine. What was first thought to be a 2 day affair, was completed in 1 day because Judge Hippler runs a tight ship! The Defense and Prosecution were able to go over 25 Motions. Some were decided on the stand, others were taken under advisement. The most intense part of the hearing focused on a dispute over AT&T records.The Defense Attorney, Anne Taylor, made accusations about the Prosecution withholding evidence, leading to a strong rebuke from the judge. Judge Hipper reminded Anne Taylor that she is an "Officer of the Court" and that when he took on this case he doesn't want theatrics or accusations that aren't supported evidence about supposed bad conducts.He said that he respects all of the attorneys and the types of accusations made can get a person disbarred!

Defense Attorney, Bob Motta, Breaks Down The REAL Issues The Prosecution May Face In Convicting Lori Vallow Daybell Is Lori Vallow really about to try and out-lawyer seasoned attorneys with a jailhouse law degree and a few self-help legal guides? Defense Attorney Bob Motta returns to unpack the chaos unfolding in Lori Vallow Daybell's Arizona murder trial. The courtroom is off to a sluggish start, with first responders and early witnesses laying the foundation—while Lori awkwardly plays the role of self-represented legal eagle. Her cross-examinations? Less "courtroom drama," more "confused deposition cosplay." Despite fumbling through legal jargon like “the evidence will show” (ad nauseam), her opening wasn't a total trainwreck... until you remember she's promising to prove things that only ghosts could back up. The million-dollar question: will Lori testify? If she does, her whole rap sheet walks through the door with her—and jurors will get a front-row seat to her greatest hits. Motta breaks down the defense strategy, or lack thereof, and why Lori's “Alex was protecting Tylee from Charles” narrative might not hold water, especially with no history of abuse to back it up. Also discussed: the prosecution's decision to keep the religious zombie talk to a minimum this time around, and whether this version of the trial works better without diving into the apocalyptic fanfic that made headlines the first go-round. Is Lori just biding her time before she turns this into a full-on courtroom doomsday sermon? #LoriVallow #TrueCrimePodcast #DaybellTrial #HiddenKillers #DefenseDiaries #MurderTrial #CourtroomDrama Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
