Florida Mom, Rachiel Moore Gets Life Without Parole for Hiring Ex-Stepdad to Take Out Father In Custody Battle A 27-year-old Florida mother will die in prison for orchestrating the murder of her 4-year-old daughter's father—an ambush carried out in front of the child only hours after a judge granted the victim shared custody. On Thursday, Santa Rosa Circuit Judge Clifton Drake sentenced Rachiel Moore to life without the possibility of parole for the March 2023 slaying of 24-year-old Colby Vinson. A jury had convicted Moore of first-degree murder and evidence tampering, finding she enlisted her former stepfather, 55-year-old Jason Curtis, to pull the trigger. Curtis was convicted of the same murder in May and also received life without parole. Prosecutors said phone and social-media records showed Moore and Curtis traded messages “all week” plotting the hit. Moore wired gas money and provided Vinson's home and work addresses, physical description, and daily routine so Curtis—nicknamed “Booger”—could identify and kill him. Deputies were dispatched just after 10 p.m. on March 19 to an apartment complex on Navarre Parkway, about 170 miles west of Tallahassee. They found Vinson on his back outside his doorway, shot once in the face, as his preschool-aged daughter stood beside his body unharmed. Moore's godmother told detectives the shooting came the very night Vinson first exercised overnight visitation in nearly a year. Hours earlier, a family-court judge had awarded him split custody after a contentious legal fight with Moore. When investigators questioned Moore, she admitted venting to Curtis about the ruling. She said Curtis responded by sending Facebook Messenger photos of guns and knives. Moore thanked him “for making her feel better” and then deleted the app, later claiming she had not believed Curtis would act on his threats. According to the probable-cause affidavit, Curtis phoned Moore around 10 p.m. on the night of the murder and told her, “You don't have to worry about it—everything is fine. I have to put my a-- in the wind.” Moore described his tone as “excited” and promised to reimburse him $50 for gas. License-plate readers and cellphone data placed Curtis's vehicle on a northbound route to Alabama, where state troopers arrested him the next day. Inside the car, officers recovered a handgun believed to be the murder weapon and a handwritten note listing Vinson's appearance and both residential and workplace addresses. During trial, jurors heard that Moore deleted messages, removed apps from her phone, and asked acquaintances to lie about her whereabouts in an effort to hide her involvement. The tampering conviction stems from those attempts to erase digital evidence. After Thursday's sentencing, State Attorney Ginger Bowden Madden praised local, state, and federal agencies that “worked seamlessly to secure justice for Colby Vinson and his daughter, who witnessed an unimaginable crime.” Moore showed little emotion as she was led from the courtroom in shackles. She offered no apology to Vinson's family, who filled several rows wearing blue ribbons in the victim's memory. Curtis remains in a Florida state prison; Moore will soon join him, both without any chance of release. Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Episode Notes S5E41 -- Join us as we dive into the mind of the longest-serving, first-time, non-violent offender in the Federal Bureau of Prisons at the time of his release George "Cowboy" Martorano.. He'll be telling us tales from his botched trial to his 32 years of a life sentence served and much much more. In 1984, on the advice of his attorney Robert Simone, Martorano pleaded guilty to 19 counts of drug possession and distribution. Martorano was subsequently advised by both the prosecution and the judge, John Berne Hannum, that this plea could result in a sentence of life without the possibility of parole. The prosecution, however, had only recommended a sentence of from 40 to 54 months. On September 20, 1984, Martorano was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole, the longest prison term ever imposed on a first-time non-violent offender in American history.

Louis Pichini, a prosecutor with the U.S. Organized Crime Task Force, pressured George Martorano for information on the Philadelphia Mafia. But Martorano has always denied having any detailed knowledge of his father's business dealings. Judge Hannum's excessive sentence was a part of this pressure. Prior to Martorano's sentencing, his trial counsel, Robert Simone, was indicted on tax evasion charges. Again, before sentence was imposed in the Martorano case, Judge Hannum testified as a character witness for Simone. An article appeared in the Philadelphia Daily News criticizing the judge and called his testimony "highly unusual". Martorano stated in subsequent appeals that Judge Hannum should have recused himself from his case prior to imposing sentence. Martorano holds the title of longest-serving, first-time, non-violent offender in federal custody.[1] He claims the sentencing judge gave the unprecedented term to pressure him to inform on his father and other mob bosses.[4] Martorano distinguished himself during his time in federal prison. In addition to being a "model" prisoner, Martorano: prevented the hijacking of an aircraft by prisoners while in transit from Philadelphia to Oklahoma following the loss of his 33rd appeal. This incident has been documented by the FBI and Federal Bureau of Prisons (FBOP) and was called "extraordinary" by D.C.

Owen Skyler Shover, 23, was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole on Friday, October 25, for the 2019 killing of his former classmate, 16-year-old Aranda Briones. Shover blamed Briones for getting him expelled from Moreno Valley High School, a grudge that led to her death. Briones' body has never been found, leaving lingering questions. “There are many questions left unanswered, none more than where is Aranda?” Riverside County Superior Court Judge Timothy J. Hollenhorst told Shover during sentencing. “You are the face of pure evil,” the judge said, adding that Shover appeared incapable of remorse. The events leading to the tragedy began on November 7, 2017, when Briones and Shover, along with friends, skipped class to hang out at a park. Shover, carrying a handgun, gave it to Briones to hide when a school resource officer approached. Panicked, she threw the weapon into a drainage canal, but the officer saw her dispose of it and detained her. Both students were expelled from school in February 2018 following the incident. Prosecutors revealed that Shover harbored resentment against Briones for the expulsion. Social media messages from November 2018 to January 2019 detailed Shover's attempts to obtain another handgun. On January 12, 2019, he invited Briones to join him on a so-called “adventure,” promising she could ride along on drug deliveries and robberies. The two met at Bayside Park the following day, with Briones posting photos of their reunion. However, by 6 p.m., Shover's intentions became clear when he messaged his brother, “Be ready for tonight. Get shovels and lighter fluid ready.” The pair drove into the San Bernardino Mountains, where the phone signals dropped between 8:30 p.m. and 10:15 p.m., leaving no trace of their location. Shover's phone reactivated later that night at his father's house. Briones was reported missing soon after. Investigators discovered her blood in the trunk of Shover's car and a Facebook message to his brother confirming plans for the crime. At sentencing, Briones' friend described her as “a kind spirit who was always joyful, even in bad moments.” Shover's brother, Gary, pleaded guilty in March to being an accessory after the fact and received 12 months' probation. Shover's attorney, Stephen Allen, expressed disappointment with the sentence, saying, “We are sad about the outcome and hopeful the appellate process will address any errors.” Shover will serve life in prison without parole, leaving the question of Briones' final resting place unanswered.

In this video, we dive into the details of the case and explore the possible outcomes. From the evidence presented to the prosecutor's strategy, we examine all the factors that will influence the verdict.
In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," former felony prosecutor and attorney Eric Faddis discusses the surprising verdict in the trial of Robert Telles, who was convicted of murdering Las Vegas reporter Jeff German. Faddis and Brueski express shock at the jury's decision to sentence Telles to life with the possibility of parole after 20 years, considering the overwhelming evidence against him. They delve into the peculiarities of jury deliberations, highlighting that two jurors were reportedly fixated on the fact that Telles wore a wig as part of a disguise, leading to a compromise verdict rather than a full life sentence. Faddis criticizes the implausibility of Telles' defense theory, which suggested a convoluted conspiracy involving a real estate company and a hitman. Both Faddis and Brueski underscore the unpredictability of jury decisions and question whether the jurors fully understood the absurdity of the defense's claims. The discussion reflects on the complexities of the legal system and the challenges in anticipating jury behavior. - Robert Telles was sentenced to life with the possibility of parole after 20 years for the murder of Jeff German. - Two jurors were reportedly focused on the wig disguise, leading to a compromised verdict. - The defense theory presented by Telles, involving a conspiracy by a real estate company, was criticized as implausible. - Faddis and Brueski discuss the unpredictability of jury decisions and the difficulty in understanding their reasoning. - The conversation underscores the challenges of the legal system, particularly in cases with seemingly clear evidence. - Faddis questions the rationality of jurors who may have bought into the bizarre defense narrative. - The podcast highlights the complexities and unpredictability of criminal trials. #RobertTelles #JeffGerman #JuryDeliberation #CriminalTrial #LegalAnalysis #CourtroomDrama #DefenseStrategy Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Another podcast we're running again because it means so much to us. From their website: "LifeLines is a media and cultural project conducted in extensive, long-term collaboration with people serving Life Death By Incarceration (also known as Life Without Parole) sentences in Pennsylvania. The project uses interviews, visual art, creative media interventions, and sound installations to support the statewide campaign to abolish Death By Incarceration. We use the term “LifeLines” to refer to the fact that this project highlights the stories and analysis of those serving life/death sentences and to point toward the many collective relationships and infrastructures of support (familial, community, activist, and beyond) that are forged in resistance to mass imprisonment."

In mid-January of this year, Massachusetts' highest court ruled that it's unconstitutional to use the sentencing of life without parole to punish people who committed their crimes when they are 18, 19, or 20 years old. Les Gosule, whose daughter was killed in 1999 by a felon out on parole despite 27 convictions, is strongly opposed to this new ruling. Gosule and Plymouth County DA Tim Cruz joined Dan to discuss it.
The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ruled that if you are under 21 and commit a crime, you cannot be sentenced to life without parole. The highest court raised the age from 18 to 21. The idea behind the ruling is that a person's brain is not fully developed by then, and they may act more impulsively than someone older. State Rep. Attorney Jeffrey Turco joined Dan to discuss.

In a crime that has sent shockwaves through the Brown County community, 25-year-old Taylor Schabusiness has been sentenced to life without the possibility of parole. The sentencing, passed down by Judge Thomas Walsh, comes after Schabusiness was found guilty of the brutal murder and dismemberment of her ex-boyfriend, 24-year-old Shad Thyrion. The Crime's Grisly Details Thyrion's dismembered remains were discovered in his mother's basement, sparking a horrifying investigation that quickly zeroed in on Schabusiness as the primary suspect. The most haunting discovery of the investigation was made by the victim's mother, Tara Pakanich, and her boyfriend, Steve Hendricks, who found Thyrion's severed head and other body parts in a bucket. Subsequent searches of the premises led to the discovery of additional body parts, evidence of drug use, and other incriminating items. Tense Moments in Court During her appearance in the Brown County Circuit Court, Schabusiness, clad in an orange prison jumpsuit, remained an enigmatic figure. While she chose not to address the court, her reactions varied from apparent smirks to shaking her head as the details of her crimes were read out. The courtroom was a cauldron of emotion. Kelly Thyrion, the victim's uncle, voiced his contempt for Schabusiness, using derogatory terms. On the other hand, Shad's father, Michael, expressed a more compassionate stance, asking for leniency and forgiveness. The Sentence and Judge's Remarks Judge Thomas Walsh's decision to sentence Schabusiness to life without parole underscored the severity of the crime. He stated, "This crime offends human decency, dignity, and the community." Despite the defense's attempts to cite Schabusiness's history of drug abuse and trauma as mitigating factors, the judge emphasized the need to prioritize public safety. Drugs and Their Role in the Crime Throughout the trial, there were constant reminders of the destructive role of drugs. Schabusiness confessed to both smoking methamphetamine and injecting herself and the victim with Trazodone, a strong sedative. This drug-fueled environment was presented as a backdrop to the tragic events that ensued. Despite this, Dr. Diane Lytton, who assessed Schabusiness's mental state, suggested that she was experiencing psychosis, complete with hallucinations. However, the jury was not swayed by this testimony, given the physical evidence at hand. The Aftermath The Brown County community now faces the grim task of coming to terms with this tragic event. As the details of this case reverberate through the area, many residents are hoping for a renewed focus on the dangers of drug addiction and its potentially catastrophic outcomes.

Ever wondered how a simple twist of faith could alter the course of life within the prison walls? This episode of our podcast series will take you on an emotional journey through the Alabama prison system, focusing on my personal experiences as an inmate. We unravel the reality of entering prison, the dread of a potential Life Without Parole sentence, and the profound moment that ignited my salvation. The episode reveals the startling contrast between the different inmate populations within the Alabama prison system, each having their unique challenges and an apparent lack of resources. Yet, amidst such despair, we explore the miraculous power of faith, which becomes a beacon of hope in the gloomy ambiance. My French pen pals, Patrick and Joanne Quillec, illustrate this beautifully through their unwavering faith and the biblical story of Joseph. In a remarkable stroke of grace, my former public defender's expertise dramatically reduced my sentence. It was like a curse lifting, showing that hope and freedom could be found even within the concrete confines of prison. We also ponder over the idea of how God can re-route us when we miss a turn, just like a GPS. Teasing our next episode, we will be discussing the prison chapel dorm, the fascinating people I met there, and intriguing insights on Christianity and religion.
