I’ll never understand how a “human” can take another’s life ... especially now that I’m a mother. That life that you felt you had the right to take meant everything to their families, etc. .. it’s just so sad.
He also took himself away from his parents, and his mom can't wrap her mind around the fact that the little boy she reared could do such a thing as an adult. She and his father are his victims, too. Life is forever changed for them.
I don't know that law and crime actually sets up the audio and video. Maybe but I thought they just relied on whatever the court has set up. Some of the trials I've seen have awful coverage. You can't hear the audio and the video looks like it was recorded with a flip phone. The media is great for this trial it feels like you're right there in the courtroom.
It’s so terrifying how killers can just dump their victims anywhere , discarding them like trash for an innocent person to discover . I can’t imagine the horror of that sight ... That would not be something a normal person could ever forget !! I pray that Samantha’s killer is prosecuted accordingly... if not here , Then when he faces his maker on the FINAL JUDGEMENT DAY 😢😢 This poor girl ... it hurts my heart the fear she must have had facing demons in her final minutes of life 😢😢😢 RIP Sweet Angel 🕯 🕯 🕊 🕊
Unfortunately the only justice would be for this guy to get the same treatment but worse. But this country is toooooo soft on killers. Thats why we are breeding them at an increasingly abnormal rate these days. Its a shame justice isnt swift and quick. When you punish your child u dont wait 2 yrs before u spank him. You do it usually immediately. As soon as hes convicted he needs to die. I have a huge heart but when it comes to innocent people being killed i hae no empathy for the killer
I like how when death penalties were brought back (1979?), the man was given a choice to be executed or to die from a 5-man firing squad. Harsh? Inhuman? Maybe. To me, "simple" murder in itself is inhumane. Adding 100+ stab wounds should not afford the killer anything less than harsh and inhumane.
Because of this case Uber and Lyft made changes. Their cars have to have easily seen identifiers in more than one place. I occasionally use this service and I keep that name and vehicle information up the whole time.
They had the witnesses point out their houses on a map in front of an alleged murderer and national tv! Sure they were already nieghbors with the defendant, but why pinpoint their family homes?
I assume it's so he can look like he is doing something, instead of avoiding looking up and listening to the horror he caused. Looking down to scribble looks better than looking down in pure shame and avoidance.
In the Ahmaud Arbery trial Roddy Bryan never stopped writing on a legal pad - even though his own lawyer told us a million times he was uneducated! Probably giving himself tips on how to look even more sorry for himself - doesn’t work.

He was out on bail for doing this to another girl already. He didn't kill the first girl just attacked and robbed her. So he was out huntin these women.
In NYC you CANNOT drive for Uber or Lyft or the like if you do not have a TLC (Taxi Livery and Car) license plate. This regulation makes it easy for riders to identify the license plate number when riding in these car services. This process makes it less likely a rider will enter a car by mistake. I think that every state should have this rule. Just in case some readers will assume that I am blaming Samantha....I am starting that I am NOT! THIS WAS UNFORTUNATE!!!!!
It would be nice if he wore his mask correctly. If you don’t cover the nose as well it’s no point in wearing anything. Even if you are a mouth breather, cover your nose AND mouth or your mask won’t do anything to protect you.
I think his defence is that thinks he’s cleverer than the average sadistic murderer… I mean according to the defence he’s an absolutely wonderful human being 🤔
In addition, I think Rowland was going to be a serial killer in the making. But, he got caught on his first hunt!!! I have so much questions!! How did he know to seek Samantha out??!!! We will never know because he will continue to maintain his "innocence." I bet if you search the surveillance cameras 90 days before 3/1919 he may have been surveying the area in that car figuring out how to get his first kill. He's such a narcissist to have the family and loved ones go through this trial.
This doomed foul souled man is pathetic - with his fancy shirts and ties. Putting all these hard working good people through it in court to arrive at the obvious place of his permanent incarceration. It's always the worst criminals that don't want death and try until the last second to avoid responsibility. Great Job by all involved in the court process. Glad this man is not longer walking talking and driving around our communities.
Listen. The car was stolen. He figured he would give the thieves an opportunity to bring the car back before he “got the law”involved. They returned the car with blood in it. He thought that was so rude of them but hey, at least they brought it back. Annnnd, that’s why he was in the car when he was arrested. 🤣😹😹😹
Defense had a great opening.I’ll give them that. Zero DNA. Is that enough to raise doubts? We’ll see. It’s gonna be almost impossible to get around her blood in his vehicle. The one explanation for that is,he wasn’t the one driving his car. We’ve all let someone borrow our car. So that’s the only plausible explanation. We’ll se how the defense navigates this issue.
Ok. Take the car his car out of it… How is Defense gonna explain him trying to w/ drawl money from her account & trying or selling her cell phone??? They have him on Video of him doin both & trying account w/ drawls 9 times. What opening statement said.
@@snailbellonthetrail982 true. I hope someone explains sometime in this trial how his DNA wasn't anywhere. Makes no sense, but I'm no expert of course.
@@BurroGirl I wonder if he had a buddy in the car with him. Since the killing, however, happened in his car, and he didn’t “fess” up about anyone else, he should be held responsible. Perhaps he is the “mastermind” behind the murder.
It looks like his attorney gave him a talking to about looking like he was engaged in his own defense by pretending to take notes. He didn’t yesterday. I feel like slapping him upside the head every time they show his face.
He is working on details of his plea bargin after he tats out the other accomplices who's dna that forensic investigators were able to collect out of his chevy impala.
The two police officers hovering behind the defendant is terrible optics; unfair to the defense. It is a statement to the jury that he may lash out at any moment.
36:09 says it's kids in there. Like how old are these kids. Obviously driving age. Obviously possibly 18+ Kids drinking and smoking. And driving. They sound like young adults to me. Possibly little more older than that right?what kind of vehicles y'all go driving around down there in these neck of the woods? Is it usually just cars and minivans? What kind of vehicles do you mostly see these "kids" driving. You live so close near there.
I don’t like witnesses having to pinpoint on a map where they live in front of family members of the one that is up for murder.
It's a blessing she was found so quick didn't lay out in the woods for months. Good thing people knew not to get close and mess with the surroundings.
I’ll never understand how a “human” can take another’s life ... especially now that I’m a mother. That life that you felt you had the right to take meant everything to their families, etc. .. it’s just so sad.
@Tricia R. touché. I definitely agree. Other than that, I can’t even fathom.
People like him have no feelings and no humanity .
He also took himself away from his parents, and his mom can't wrap her mind around the fact that the little boy she reared could do such a thing as an adult. She and his father are his victims, too. Life is forever changed for them.
I'm always amazed at how patient most witnesses are with so many pointless questions from lawyers.
This question was asked of someone in the medical profession. Q: how did u know she was dead? A: her head was in a jar. Lmfao
Do we have a choice unless we choose to be in contempt of court?

He should’ve let that girl out of his car he didn’t have to kill her
He was out on bail for doing this to another girl already. He didn't kill the first girl just attacked and robbed her. So he was out huntin these women.
@Tootie Ramsey thanks for that...I was trying to figure out why he did it, what was his motive. So, robbery? SMH.
The fact he know he’s guilty is sick to even sit on trail thinking you would ever get away with it
Imagine finding a body, then to find out someone from your school is responsible, 😬 omg
According to the defense attorney if you don't like to drink beer in the middle of the day you don't like to have fun. Geez!!!

That shows how cocky he is.
Gotta be pretty hard to be A lawyer trying to "Defend" Someone you KNOW is Guilty...Does anyone know WHY he took this to Trial? What's his defense?
His defense is “I’m narcissistic “
Waste of money on a defense attorney. It was an insult to take this to trial
he wanted his face on tv. he believes himself to be very important.
He said he was innocent. His arrogance can be seen in the way he handles himself in his seat.
He probably just wanted as much time out of a cell as possible; selfish a**hole. Put her family and witnesses through more trauma.

So sorry for this young lady

Guilty. Period.
The defense attorney is lousy. Was he in the courtroom as the witness was questioned. This has to be a public defender by his stupid questions.
Yes 🙌 the other defend lawyers were the same thing!
Omg! Defence questioning Bubba is just regurgitating what the prosecutor said/asked
The man who discovered Samantha’s body went to HS with the killer? Thats insane.
I wish the defendant would put his mask over his nose.
I am Canadian and I'm flat out giggling at these accents LOL
I've heard some canadian accents. lol
A Canadian laughing at an accent? What’s that aboot? 😂
Why the Judge rushing the witnesses, this courtroom is starting to feel like the Roberson case , unorganised
I believe he has murdered before, he needs to put that mask up over his noise like everyone else. He is Guilty Guilty Guilty.
Why is this monster taking notes for ?
I was wondering the same about Derek chauvin
He is working on details of his plea bargin after he tats out the other accomplices who's dna that forensic investigators were able to collect out of his chevy impala.
I’ll bet he isn’t taking notes at all. He’s just doodling to keep busy. It’s a way to get them not to react to testimony.
someone said he's writing his will- har har
He's playing make - believe that he has some intelligence.
