You are very correct patreon is very hard to maneuver through, and it also does not go back all the way to listen to the first few broadcasts

Gosh, there's so much circumstantial evidence here. I couldn't convict though. Too many unanswered questions and lack of forensic evidence tying her to this. I would've liked the weapon, maybe an actual crime scene, maybe a video of her lugging what had to be heavy suitcases. After all, didn't the fisherman struggle with picking one up? I feel like she would've needed help. Perhaps her lover helped?

I feel like she did but someone helped her!!

As far as the animal hair in the suitcases... if she did kill him in a hotel room, it could've been on him from the room. Or if the doctor boyfriend had a pet, it could've transferred from her. Either way, I do think she did it, but under what the law is in this country as far as reasonable doubt & such, I couldn't have convicted her. Just not enough evidence.

But did she have the strength to saw his body up?! What was used? I feel like that’s a huge missing piece. You think there’s be enough elevator cameras that it’s worth looking through all of the tapes in Atlantic City to catch her with the luggage. Ugh. This is why I should have been an investigator… although I’d never sleep until I turned every rock.

Guilty AF!

I feel that while there’s a strong likelihood that there’s too much reasonable doubt to find her guilty by the standards of our system. As for the truth of what happened, I don’t know 😔 There’s too many questions left unanswered.

I think that yes it’s possible she did it even probable that she did however I thought you had to find her guilty beyond a shadow of doubt and that I couldn’t do. I would not have been able to say yes she did it without any physical evidence proving it.

I don’t think I’ve ever been more torn in thinking guilty or not guilty. If I was in the jury I don’t know if there’s enough physical evidence for me to have said guilty?? Ughhhhh I can’t decide lol

Nvm found it lol

I think there is reasonable doubt and I would not have convicted her. Too many questions. Too much circumstantial. I think you have to take your “heart” out of it wanting to say “oh she was having this affair. She needed him out of her life. She totally did it,” and use your mind to say.. but what if it was a gambling problem? I know us women are strong but how did she cut up a grown mans body and then haul it down to her car? Where are the hotel cameras (pulling a Garrett here🤣)? I wouldn’t have given her a guilty verdict.
