Podcasts about Reasonable doubt

Mark Geragos is joined by special guest co-host (and his daughter) Teny Geragos, a criminal defense attorney, for a wide-ranging legal breakdown that moves from the arrest of journalist Don Lemon and the First Amendment issues it raises to a major pre-trial victory removing the death penalty in the Luigi Mangione case. The episode also digs into federal charging tactics, prosecutorial discretion, and the latest Epstein file disclosures, including why heavy redactions have become routine in high-profile criminal cases.Watch Beyond A Reasonable Doubt and all Reasonable Doubt video content on YouTube exclusively at YouTube.com/ReasonableDoubtPodcast and subscribe while you're thereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

John Carroll, Defense Counsel for Brendan Banfield, presented closing arguments today in the Brendan Banfield murder trial. Banfield, a former IRS agent, is charged with four counts of aggravated murder in the February 2023 deaths of his wife Christine Banfield and Joseph Ryan at their Herndon, Virginia home.Prosecutors allege Banfield plotted the killings with the family's Brazilian au pair, Juliana Peres Magalhães, with whom he was having an affair. Magalhães has pleaded guilty to manslaughter and is expected to testify against Banfield. The defense maintains digital evidence does not support the state's catfishing theory.#BrendanBanfield #AuPairAffair #MurderTrial #TrueCrime #Testimony #ChristineBanfield #JosephRyan #FairfaxCounty #HiddenKillers #BreakingJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The prosecution laid out their case. Now the defense has to tear it apart. Michael McKee pleaded not guilty to the aggravated murders of Monique Tepe and Spencer Tepe. His attorneys are now preparing for the pretrial battles that could determine whether a jury ever hears the most damaging evidence against him.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis walks us through the defense's likely strategy. McKee waived his bail hearing—Eric explains why that's a calculated move, not a surrender. The real fight happens in motions.The affidavit includes allegations that McKee strangled Monique and forced unwanted sex on her during the marriage—abuse that was never reported to police or prosecuted. Eric breaks down the motion to exclude that testimony as prejudicial and unproven, and whether it has a realistic chance of succeeding.Then there's the hearsay problem. Witnesses say Monique told them McKee threatened to kill her, said he'd find her and buy the house next door, said she'd "always be his wife." But Monique is dead. The defense will argue those statements can't come in. Eric explains what exceptions might apply and how hard that fight will be.We also examine how the defense might reframe the cell phone going dark—the prosecution calls it consciousness of guilt, but what's the innocent explanation? How do you explain surveillance footage showing your client at the property three weeks before the murders? And if the vehicle evidence seems overwhelming, can the defense separate McKee from the car?If acquittal isn't on the table, what does a defense "win" look like?#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #DefensePlaybook #HearsayFight #ReasonableDoubt #CriminalDefense #HiddenKillers #MurderTrial #OhioMurderJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Mark and Gary dissect the explosive congressional testimony of Special Counsel Jack Smith. From his inability to recall who swore him into office, to questions surrounding a second oath, secret subpoenas, confidential informant payments, and nondisclosure orders involving the Speaker of the House, the hosts examine what these moments reveal about power, process, and accountability at the highest levels of the Justice Department. The conversation raises serious concerns about prosecutorial overreach and why these hearings are not getting more public attention.Watch Beyond A Reasonable Doubt and all Reasonable Doubt video content on YouTube exclusively at YouTube.com/ReasonableDoubtPodcast and subscribe while you're thereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The prosecution's case against Michael McKee looks overwhelming—until you examine it from the defense table. Yes, police say they found the murder weapon in his apartment. Yes, his alibi reportedly failed. Yes, family members describe an obsession with his ex-wife Monique Tepe that lasted eight years after their divorce. But McKee's defense team sees opportunities prosecutors don't want to acknowledge. Today on True Crime Today, criminal defense attorney Eric Faddis breaks down exactly how McKee's attorneys might attack the state's case in the Tepe double murder. Faddis is a former felony prosecutor who switched sides and has tried 45+ jury trials—he knows how to find the cracks that create reasonable doubt. We examine the chain of custody issues with a weapon recovered 300 miles from the crime scene, the search warrant challenges that could suppress key evidence, and the difficulty of securing a conviction when no eyewitness places the defendant at the scene. McKee reportedly talked to police before invoking his right to remain silent—can those statements be suppressed or recontextualized? How does defense counter the prosecution's "cold, calculating killer" narrative? Could diminished capacity reframe the entire case? And what happens if prosecutors seek the death penalty in Ohio? Eric Faddis maps out the defense playbook.#TepeMurders #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #RichardTepe #TrueCrimeToday #DefenseStrategy #EricFaddis #ReasonableDoubt #CriminalDefense #MurderTrialJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The defense came out swinging on Day 6 of the Brendan Banfield murder trial — and the prosecution is now playing defense.It started with a failed motion to throw out the au pair's testimony. Judge denied it. Then came the body camera footage: Brendan Banfield at the hospital the morning his wife died, breaking down when doctors delivered the news. He cried again today watching it. The defense wants the jury to see a grieving husband. The prosecution says it's an act.But the real battle today was forensic. Defense expert LeeAnn Singley challenged every conclusion the prosecution's blood spatter analyst made yesterday. She testified that the evidence doesn't definitively show staging — and added that murderers sometimes hurt themselves to support their story. That cuts multiple directions.Then came digital forensics. A Fairfax County detective confirmed he was "not voluntarily removed" from the case. A private investigator laid groundwork for the theory that Christine Banfield controlled the FetLife account — not Brendan. If the jury believes that, the entire prosecution narrative collapses.Child endangerment charges are proceeding. Snow may shorten the trial. And somewhere in that courtroom, reasonable doubt is either building or crumbling.Full breakdown of everything that happened in court today.#TrueCrimeToday #BrendanBanfield #AuPairTrial #ChristineBanfield #JosephRyan #FetLife #ForensicEvidence #DefenseCase #FairfaxCounty #MurderTrialJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Mark is joined this week by criminal defense attorney Alan Jackson. Coming off his headline-making victory in the Karen Read retrial, Jackson offers a candid look at the pressures and pitfalls of high-profile defense work, including the emotional impact of withdrawing from the Nick Reiner case. The conversation explores how media attention, prosecutorial conduct, gag orders, and judicial decision-making can shape the outcome of a trial long before a jury deliberates.

You saw them on ABC News; now meet them on this excting episode.The Reasonable Doubts is a "garage band" of  Minnesota judges, created to provide creativity and to relieve stress through making music together. The group has nine members, who come together to enjoy music and foster camaraderie outside of their judicial roles.    The Reasonable Doubts was formed about two years ago by Minnesota Supreme Court Justice Anne McKeig, who sent an email to judges across the state inviting them to join her in starting a band.  As you will hear, the name "Reasonable Doubts" refers to the legal standard of proof required in criminal cases. The band practices nearly every weekend in St. Cloud, Minnesota, and their repertoire covers genres from country to rock and pop. They perform covers of popular songs, including tracks by Elvis Presley, AC/DC, and Beyoncé. The Reasonable Doubts has participated in various events, including their first public booking at Law Law Palooza, (Get it?) a benefit concert for legal aid, highlighting their commitment to community engagement while also showcasing their musical talents.  The Reasonable Doubts band demonstrates how judges can come together to share their love for music, to support each other, and to find balance in their demanding careers. I know from my day job the stress under which judges work --- day and night.  The Reasonable Doubts goes a way to relive that stress.Enjoy this episode!

True Crime Today brings you the defense perspective on the Brendan Banfield murder trial. Defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down where the prosecution's case is weakest — and how reasonable doubt gets built from the wreckage of a flawed investigation.Officer Brendan Miller — the department's digital forensics expert — analyzed 60 devices and concluded Christine Banfield controlled the FetLife account. Not her husband. His findings were peer-reviewed by the University of Alabama and confirmed. Then he was transferred out of the unit. The lead detective who questioned the catfishing theory was reassigned. Prosecutor Eric Clingan was removed after being cited for drinking at 8 a.m.Clingan admitted on the record that 12 homicide detectives had 24 different theories before the au pair gave her proffer. Motta explains exactly how damaging that admission is — and how the defense exploits it in front of a jury.The prosecution treats the framed photo of Brendan and Juliana as a smoking gun. They're using Banfield's IRS background to argue he knew how to stage a crime scene. Motta explains how defense attorneys flip every piece of that narrative.It took 19 months to charge Brendan Banfield. Investigators were transferred. Evidence was excluded. Theories kept changing. Motta identifies where reasonable doubt lives in this case — and what the jury should be thinking about when they walk into deliberations.#BrendanBanfield #BobMotta #TrueCrimeToday #DefenseAttorney #ChristineBanfield #AuPairMurder #ReasonableDoubt #MurderTrial #CriminalDefense #TrueCrimeNewsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

We're going LIVE with defense attorney Bob Motta to examine the Brendan Banfield case from the perspective prosecutors don't want you to see. Where does this case bleed? Where does reasonable doubt get built? What should the defense be hammering in that courtroom?The prosecution's own digital forensics expert contradicted their catfishing theory — and was transferred out of the unit. The lead detective who questioned the theory was reassigned. The original prosecutor was removed. Twelve homicide detectives had 24 different theories until Juliana Peres Magalhaes gave her proffer after sitting in jail for a year.Motta explains how a skilled defense attorney weaves all of this into a narrative that makes jurors question everything the state is selling. He breaks down how to neutralize the framed photo evidence, how to flip Banfield's law enforcement background from liability to asset, and what it means that Judge Azcarate excluded the child's forensic interview.The prosecution needed 19 months to charge Brendan Banfield. They've had investigators transferred, experts silenced, and prosecutors removed. Motta tells you what reasonable doubt looks like in a case with this many problems.We're taking your questions live. Drop them in the chat.

  In this episode, we're joined by Oxford-trained philosopher and author Chris Carter to explore one of humanity's most enduring and controversial questions: Is there evidence of life after death? Drawing from his latest book, The Case for the Afterlife: Evidence of Life After Death, Carter argues that the survival of consciousness can be established beyond reasonable doubt through empirical evidence rather than faith alone. Our conversation ranges across research from the British and American Societies for Psychical Research, compelling cases of reincarnation involving children who remember previous lives, accounts of after-death communication, and examples of terminal lucidity. Along the way, we examine the philosophical distinction between reasonable and conceivable doubt, address the strongest skeptical objections, and consider the practical and existential implications of believing that consciousness continues beyond physical death.
