I decided - after verdict in first minutes - not to continue with the feature, reading from many that he's a liar. If he wasn't a liar the case would become so exciting.
The scratches on his body and neck, the fact that no truck went by as recorded by the horse ranch surveillance cameras, the three different stories and outright lies he told along with her unusual injuries made me believe she was ended by her husband and the scene was staged.
I take the recording of the truck driving by with a grain of salt because it could’ve turned off that road before the cameras, but I agree with everything else you said. He def looks guilty.
EXACTLY 💯 and where's the DNA from under her fingernails????? Did they not scrape underneath her nails in the autopsy since he had all those scratches?!?!? I've read and seen other cases where YES definitely that cricoid bone was shattered during strangulation!!!!! He beat her too all the bruises and scratches and the trauma to the back of her neck too!!!!!!! He did this and the jury got it right!!!!!!
The mere fact that they had zero interest in speaking up for her. Gives the impression that they were NOT ALLOWED to do so even while she was still alive. Domination of women controls the “whole” of the family.
It’s such a waste of time interviewing the accused’s family members. They are blinded by love and loyalty to the point where they don’t realize how irrational they sound
It can help us in dysfunctional upbringings to see this denial in others so we can have any hope of seeing through trauma bond in ourselves but no not helpful to a court inquiry
Yeah it does bring some more negativity their way but it’s also nice to hear the other side’s objections. I think their statements helped me solidify the fact that he did this and the kids never knew what was happening behind closed doors.
So let me get this straight. A windshield installer blames the death of his wife on a freak windshield accident on his way to (3 nonexistent) windshield installation appointments?
He hadn't thought out that part of his lie. Why were you on that road .. ummm well those stories will be verified ... He forgot about it. That poor woman.
The clincher here is that he was going to make her late, yet she didn't call to say she would be late. You could possibly imagine that he asked her to go with him so he could pick up a truck (then she could drive herself to work in their car) but why not just leave a half hour early so she wouldn't be late? And if for some reason they couldn't leave early, she would certainly call the school to say she would be late.
❌1) friend needing his services ❌2) other friend needing his services ❌3) his wife needing to go to work/different direction not giving her coworkers the heads up ❌4) THE SCRATCHES ON HIS NECK There were more but I don’t want to type all of it. I genuinely was and still am trying so hard to see things from their children’s perspective, but all of these things aren’t adding up. ❌5) He never gave a *solid* or *logical* reason as to why they were there in the first place. Either he is up there on the “Unluckiest People In The World” list, he was hiding something, or he is guilty. So sorry for his and Barbara’s kids. So sorry for Barbara and all of her loved ones.
And their father is so selfish, expecting his kids to sell their homes and everything of value to pay for his defense and new lawyers. Dear kids, open your eyes, your poor mom suffered and died at the hands of your father. 😢
Yup... How could the jury can see clearly that he is lying, but the children didn't even give a little suspicious? I mean forgetting where they wants to go that morning is already weird cause he remembers any other thing, but...lying 3 times?? How could they still believe him? Especially after there's a witness saying he didn't see any broken windshield?
My ex and I technically had no domestic violence/trouble issues anyone knew of. If I would have died they wouldn’t have known the truth of our relationship behind closed doors. I kept it from the kids, even my best friend till much later. They couldn’t believe he was two different personalities and would have thought I was wearing the pants (he would overly dote on me and act like I was the one in charge, in public). I started to secretly record the truth because I knew no one would believe me. So sad. I hope those kids find healing in the truth.
Oh wow. Your story has me thinking now. The one thing I could not reconcile is Todd had no motive. No infidelity and no financial issues and no record of abuse. But reading your story makes me wonder… was Barb being secretly abused and nobody knew it?
As a medical doctor myself I think he is guilty as sin. When I saw the medical examiner's report and the extent of injuries... that sealed the deal for me. Glad he's where he belongs.
Where were the skid marks going off the road? Looks like he parked it that way. If a pipe went thru the windshield, why did he remove it? It's that tampering with evidence? Did cops look for forensic evidence on the pipe?
He just happened to be going the wrong way taking his wife to work, AND just happened to Lie about the windshield getting replaced. "TWICE". Yet, the defense still wants us to believe this killer's story. 🙄 JUST STOP
Not only twice, but thrice. When Todd was called to testify he named a 3rd "customer" wanting his windshield replaced. He too was found to refute Todd's claim.
@@WatchTashi Understood, my friend. But Todd's defense never offered that explanation, only three different specific destinations. And if his memory was flawed, shouldn't we know by now where he was actually going to install a windshield? If there truly was a windshield to be installed, wouldn't by now his defense have found out where he was headed and called that person to the witness stand?
Hmmmm… a guy who makes his living with windshield replacement has a wife who dies from a pipe going through their windshield? Nah… nothing to see here 😎😎😎
Toad Pipehammer couldn't even get the pipe to strike the windshield one time to push his ridiculous story. How does a pipe from a speeding truck fly off and hit the windshield twice, the second time being the killer. Embarrassing.
Right. And the kids are wondering why he would go through such trouble if he wanted their mom dead. Because he is familiar with it. It's not the same trouble for them or anyone else who doesn't have their dad's work background 🤔
ofcourse they are,they dont believe that their father would do this, yet almost in all cases like this 90% of the times, the partner is to blame. most of these cases are made by partner to their wifes. sad reality that violence againt the women is out of control,its case after case after case... so many female victims.
@@terrorsquadlithcan you explain why he gave conflicting stories about where he was going? He still couldn't get his story straight a year later during trial, so you really can't blame brain fog.
the problem with what you said is that it is lacking motive to snap and no real investigation to the character of the person they suspect killed his wife...
Don't forget the accident conveniently occurred out in the sticks where no cameras were present and he had no response for where they were headed and changed his story THREE times.
Guilty. I was a nurse and the ME’s report basically told the truth…..that she was killed by her husband rather than a random pipe puncturing the windscreen and her. Couple that with the scratches on him and the fact a truck couldn’t be accounted for. Also, he was caught out in many, many lies. I feel bad for the children, but their loyalty is misplaced. Their mother was killed by their father.
Ok, I said this exact same thing outloud in the beginning of the video, right after that guy said it. (I included the same as you) which I was saying outloud to myself just as I'm scrolling through the comments and see your exact same addition. Too funny. My bad for the stupid long comment. I thought the Planets all aligned for a min there... 🤪
medical examiner: the injuries are consistent with strangulation family: but why would he go through all that trouble of getting a pipe? cameras: there was no truck family: but why would he go all the way out of his way up north? defendant: I was going to replace so and so's windshield 3 independent witness testimonies:: there were no plans for him to come replace my windshield family: but that makes no sense! Why would get go up north where there are few people likely to see him? I still don't get it 🤦🏻
As my grandpa would've said about the familys inability, or lack of comprehension on how daddy did all this. "The Apple don't fall to far from the tree." 😂
HE DID IT… its not complicated. No truck on video. His MANY lies. No explanation on why he was going away from her work, when she had NEVER been late without calling before.
If he killed her with a gun like kids suggest that would be to obvious he did it. So he takes a pipe and pretends it's an accident from the road. Glad the jury saw the truth
Yeah I thought the daughter’s comment about the killing with a gun was troublesome. It’s too obvious like you said. She goes on to make other troublesome comments like her father doesn’t lie which he blatantly did and acknowledged in the case.
@@4catmom14 I think it was planned. He takes her away from her job and claims he's going to get some wind shield from two to three other people.The people he was suppose to see said they never met or had plans to meet them. So why is he traveling in a distance that didn't make sense
There is literally NO truck seen coming or going during the timeframe their car went by…. That’s because there was no truck. If there is no truck, his entire story or recollection of events is now dismantled. It always amazes me how the children in these cases act as if their mother never existed in the way they stand firmly behind the dads… the evidence is clear. He killed your mother. They are in extreme denial and need therapy.
They really didn’t even talk about her or missing her or show emotion about her during the interviews. But when talking about HIM, the tears flowed. Very strange. My parents died years ago and I still tear up when talking about both of them.
@@mrsbluesky8415 at all! That was strange to me. I get that they have had a traumatic event occur and that is their only surging parent, but my God use your brain. And I am very sorry you are now without your parents. I will remember you tonight in my prayers ❤️
The scratches on his face, bloody knuckles, all the lies, different route to work, the strange injuries. Very . Plus the other truck would have happened to be going at an enormous speed for the pipe to enter the windshield like a spear
And the daughter brags about how many guns dear dad owned. Like if he shot her they wouldn't be able to trace it back to one of those guns. I think the daughter and son are a few bricks short of a load.
I hope sooner than later his daughter will realize her father isn’t who she thought. She didn’t even express her feelings about her mother . That’s sad .
the picture they showed during that.,,,I also didn't think the window was smashed..i was confused how they got a picture ahead of time, then i saw the smash...If i was in a car driving by, i may have never seen it, glare, overcast days with solid white sky...etc
I bet the wife was getting ready to leave him for whatever reason and he snapped. She had way too many injuries that he couldn’t explain. Also his hands and neck were very telling.
@@grandmaoldschool7011 And yet there was testimony that there were no bruises noted on her in the second trial.. and that her injuries could have been the result of a car accident.
@@Jkaye13it wasn't a second trial, it was an evidentiary hearing. And the Doctor Who testified in the evidentiary hearing did not conduct the autopsy, she was relying on photos.
He did it for sure. Taking a different route to replace a windshield (that no one needed) before dropping your wife off at work? That would've made her late. He's more than guilty...
The coffemug hit her in front of the throat and then flew around and hit her in the back of the head? And the pipe hit her in the front of the head AND the back of the head because she ducked? This truck with the pipe came TOWARDS them when the pipe fell off the side of the flatbed, hit the ground and accelerated towards the windshield of their car? This is confusing to me, because none of it makes sense. Nor does any aspect of his story. A lot of murders happen without an apparent motive. Maybe she wanted to divorce him? The wouldn't have been the first couple to put up a good show for the kids.
Exactly, the defence's argument to explain back of the head trauma - oh she ducked. But if she ducked then how did she sustain all the frontal face and neck injuries?
this guy is guilty as hell and for me it's" changing the road for no obvious reason + no evidence of a truck passing by + we have a witness and a cctv footage " the kids are in denial because they lost both of their parents at once hope they'll heal from this traumatic event sooner
When something is flying at my head, I do not, nor would I ever, lean forward in an attempt to dodge it. I would lean to the right, left or backward 100% of the time. Since she was in a car seat with a headrest, backward was not an option, so I'd expect for her to move her head to the right or left. There's no way she received an injury to the back of her head from leaning forward when the pipe is flying at her.
Daughter is asked about missing her mom and dad, and finally we see tears- over her father’s absence. When talking about her daughter, she says it’s sad “he’s not around”- not “they”. And she and her family can visit her dad, but her mother is dead….yet only the loss of her father elicits any emotion. That is really, really, really…..weird.
That did not sit very well with me either. Their mother is gone, really gone; they can at least still visit their father... yet they only recognize the father missing from their lives??
I’d love to give the guy the benefit of the doubt but why would she miss work when she never did? Why did the people he claimed to be doing work for deny that work needed to be done? The suspect was his own worst witness. I’d vote guilty if I was on that jury.
Geoffrey Loftus is the ex-husband of Elizabeth Loftus -- one of the world's foremost experts on memory. She has made a career of testifying for the defense by impugning the memory of eye witnesses. Here we have Geoff providing an opinion that helps the defense by saying that traumatic events interfere with the processing and storage of short term memory -- which is true. But knowing where you were going when a traumatic event happened isn't short term memory. If you were on a plane flying to see your new grandchild and something traumatic but non-physical happened (it was hijacked, it almost crashed into the ocean) you might be very confused (and even completely wrong) about a lot of the events surrounding the incident, but you wouldn't forget why you were on the plane. And you wouldn't change your story about it three times -- "I was going to see my grandchild...uh no I was going on vacation...uh no I was on a business trip."
@@dianecripps204 Right, that is the typical pattern of a serious head injury. It's like turning off your computer without saving -- all the unsaved memory (that is, the short term memory that has not been transferred to long-term storage) is going to be lost. However, here we're not even talking about a head injury -- just the panic surrounding a traumatic event. That's going to keep you from noticing and/or remembering things during and after the event, but it shouldn't keep you from remembering what happened before, especially well before, which is when he would have decided not to take his wife directly to her school.
If I was on that jury I would have also found him guilty. He lied three times about where they were going that day. That to me would have sealed his fate as a liar. Second, why is there no trace of this mysterious truck? If a video shows their car going down the road then it should have shown the truck in question also. He is guilty.
If it wasn’t for the scratches over his body, his bleeding knuckles and the 3 different lies he told about where he was going, I’d be inclined to believe his story. However, those bits of evidence are pretty damning. He looked like he’d been in a fight with someone who fought back. Therefore I think he’s guilty. He pulled over, beat her, and possibly strangled her, dragged her back in the car and staged the scene. The kids ask “why would he go to all that trouble when he has 28 guns and could’ve shot her?” Because he wanted to get away with it is why.
Family never really wants to know the truth. Because all this evidence and some family members still don’t believe this man killed his wife. Guess it’s like when women are abused in relationships and think they are being loved. Nomatter how many people tell them it’s not right, 😢
@FredPorllock-1892 TOTALLY AGRE WITH YOU FRED.BOTH OF THEM KNOWS WHAT HAPPENS, THE GIRL TO. WATCH WHEN SHE TALK AND LOOKS HIS BROTHER SIDE, JUST LIKE SAYING, DON'T GHANGE MY WORDS.
@@redacted2275the deciding factor is the photos of the car in the ditch WITHOUT a broken windshield like 5 minutes before he called 911…he absolutely killed her and punched the window to further push his narrative
@@redacted2275we didn’t see it but there’s evidence he killed his wife. You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to understand evidence and putting the pieces together.
It always makes me incredibly sad for the deceased Mothers in these cases when the kids are die-hard believers in their dads, who are found guilty. I understand not wanting to believe your father is capable of such a thing and not wanting to lose both parents, but.. Where's the same love, care, and justice for their Mom?! It's like these murderous dads are idolized in their kids' eyes, and the mother falls to the wayside. I do, however, feel sad for the terrible position they are in. So sad
Yes, the Morphew case in Colorado is a perfect example of this. He's still free as they don't have enough evidence, and his two grown daughters idolise him.
@Mary.Quantum426 Yes ma'am, it is. I am always sickened by footage of them hanging on him and idolizing him. I think of Suzanne often and continue to pray that they do not stop pursuing justice for her. 🕊
@@sandrabentley8111I still wouldn't lie even if I were in shock. When he knew he was the prime suspect, he should have spoken the truth cos the truth always sounds the most believable!
A father who loved his kids would not continue to have them use every dime to keep trying to get him out prison. He would want them to live their lives and have a good future.
Guilty! One day the daughter will see it . The son seems like he’s already there . May she rest in peace. Hope he rots in jail . His hands show the whole story .
It is horrible to see their children in such denial, especially the daughter. It is like her mother's life meant nothing to her. It is obvious that Todd made up the story about why he drove there that morning and what happened. To me their marriage doesn't sound happy, nor perfect. Happy couples I've seen who are in good marriages have shared interests and friends and also have individual interests and friends, It is not healthy to be living in each other's pockets 24/7. It seemed like Todd was extremely possessive, who phones their wife every morning on her break at work? Poor Barbara never got the chance to relax and spend time with her workmates. From when she was 16. he was right there, every minute of every day apart from when she escaped to work and even then he dropped her off, phoned her and picked her up. She had probably finally decided she wanted to do something without him and I'd say that is what enraged him.
There's a lot of codependent people out there. I've worked with so many people that have to spend every single break either talking to or face timing their partner. 😑
I appreciate your comment. So often in the true crime scene, these cases just become entertainment and armchair detective work (and I am guilty of that)
The daughter and son didn’t even cry a little talking about their mom. Only when the dad was mentioned, and she didn’t even say what she missed about mom.
@ He would have had to explain why his wife suddenly decided to pick up a gun and, for example, clean it and accidentally discharge it. Also, gunshot residue and bullet trajectory are much harder to create convoluted narratives for, because the science is clear on both.
@@xxNinjaclanxx-id9rs And when the interviewer asked how she missed her mother, the daughter kept defaulting back to talking about her father. Something is hinky here.
He was literally texting her all day everyday. During her work breaks she would have to call/text him. Literally every break she had at work. He drove her to work everyday too. She literally was always with him. That sounds suffocating. Perhaps she was done with decades+ of that and wanted something different for herself.
Wow, you're probably right, that didn't even occur to me (or get mentioned as a possibility). Would make sense as to how he staged it so quick. She was already dead, he knew where he would drive to and try to stage the accident..also explained why she never made the calls she needed to make if running late.
With the son there..? Their son was grown, not a child.. he testified that they didn't even have words with each other, that it was a normal morning. It's pretty hard to imagine two people in a drag out fight for your life, and there not being any noise, or things broken and moved around the house.
I think he did it at the farm, they checked on right after they left their home that morning. He had to of done it in steps, he just couldn't of done it all in 5 minutes.
I think it would be so hard to comprehend a family member could do something so horrible. The evidence speaks for itself in most cases though and I couldn’t look past it.
Guy does windshield repair for living and this happened through windshield...and his t-shirt says " I don't give a rat's ass".. can't be a coincidence I guess
@@bonnielarson4160well the fact he didn't have the glass with him to do the job isn't that concerning to me because according to him, he was going to take the guys truck to his house and do it. So you wouldn't bring it all with you if that was the case, you'd leave it at the place you're doing the repair. But the fact they asked the guy who Todd claimed was the one he was doing the windshield for and the guy said he didn't need a repair, never booked one, Todd was never coming to get the truck... THAT is the problematic part.
@missmicheleeexo2269 he didn’t have it at his house either, why make someone late to work to pick up a truck, to repair when you didn’t have what was needed, take her to work, get the glass, then get the truck, there isn't an urgent need to get the truck, so why go out of your way to make her late. He supposedly did everything for her, why would he make her late, why didn't they ask the kids about that, "was it normal for your mom to be late, would your mom normally go along with your dad to pick up vehicles?", my guess is no to either question.
@@missmicheleeexo2269 Todd changed the windscreen story that many times. He probably killed her with the pole thing then staged the windscreen smash. His daughter did not seem too concerned that the grandchildren would miss her mother. More vocal about Todd. The police seemed pretty certain he killed his wife. And he did have a motive we just don't know it. Could be Jekyll and Hyde personality. Guilty as...
Gorgeous property, gorgeous wife. So...this dude is so homely! I'm sorry, but he had what most men would love to have, yet, he didn't deserve her. What is wrong with this dude? What a lying scumbag!
In my opinion, the fact that the pipe made 2 impressions in the windshield- impossible, if the pipe had penetrated the glass and somehow come back out then rotated and penetrated the glass again, the best I can come up with is the pipe would have hit horizontally the second hit, also Barbara would have asked hubby to take her to work then go to pick up the other vehicle, which there’s no substantial evidence the other vehicle existed. Then man is lying!
the defense lawyers are so cringe...now they saying the pipe hit her in the back of the neck while the mug hit her in the front while Todd punched the windshield....lol
Things that might cause a person to say .. hmmm. #1 - Why is he taking her with him to pick up a truck for windshield repair (for three different men who say they did not request the repair)? Why is he taking her with him and making her late to work .. when she is known for never being late? Deep Cuts on his knuckles, especially left hand (is he left-hand dominant?) Scratches on his neck and face How could he break the windshield by striking it with his hand from the driver’s seat? Why did he not try to flag down the person who drove by his car at 8:00 that morning? Did the person who drove by that morning see that the windshield was broken? Why would he take time away from rendering aid to his wife to pull the pipe out of the windshield? Did the pipe have Barbara’s blood on it? His fingerprints on it? Did the water jug have her blood or tissue on it to support the theory that her cricoid bone was broken by her striking the jug when she ducked to avoid being struck by the pipe?
I've been a court reporter for 37 years, so I've heard *a* *lot* of experts testify on just about every subject imaginable, and I have two things to say about experts: Number 1, no matter what opinion an expert has, you can *always* find another expert with the exact *opposite* opinion, and Number 2, if you ask ten different experts (who are experts in the exact same field) their opinions, you'll get ten different answers. Therefore, I don't put much stock in expert witness testimony.
Just because the fractured bone in the throat wasn’t the result of strangulation doesn’t mean he didn’t strike her in the throat. Biggest evidence to his guilt is there was no truck on video going the opposite way. He planned it, he had that pipe in his trunk.
Why did she have bruises all over her body? Are they trying to say the coffee mug did that too? That's some powerful drink container to crush her throat and bounce around all over her entire body. Sounds like it was more dangerous than the pipe.
@@Yusuavea little bit rude, you know, Zimbabwe is a huge thriving city. Well, I don't know about thriving. I think they've had some political issues. But people live like in homes and apartments there as well. Geez l o l.
And fyi, a young woman just went thru this,she was on a rd, behind a truck and a pipe went thru the windshield into her chest, she was able to call 911 and pull the car to the side of the rd.
@@btrueethI'm sorry but I laughed at your comment. 😂 It's just so ridiculous - the hoops they're jumping through to try and explain it away. The coffee mug hit her in the throat then wrapped around the seat and hit her in the back of the head? The pipe hit her in the front of the head and the back cause she ducked? Come on.
Things are not adding up! He lied several times as to why he was on that road. The passerby saw the car on the side of the road but no pipe. The accident was at 8am, assuming she had to be to work earlier than 8am, she didn’t call her job.,She also didn’t call her Mom (assuming she called prior to work) He is definitely guilty

I mean forgetting where they wants to go that morning is already weird cause he remembers any other thing, but...lying 3 times?? How could they still believe him? Especially after there's a witness saying he didn't see any broken windshield?
Only parent they have left
@@FindpepperbridgeI agree I think they are so afraid of losing the only parent they have left that they have convinced themselves of his innocence.
blind affection for their killer father!
My ex and I technically had no domestic violence/trouble issues anyone knew of. If I would have died they wouldn’t have known the truth of our relationship behind closed doors. I kept it from the kids, even my best friend till much later. They couldn’t believe he was two different personalities and would have thought I was wearing the pants (he would overly dote on me and act like I was the one in charge, in public). I started to secretly record the truth because I knew no one would believe me.
So sad. I hope those kids find healing in the truth.
Oh wow. Your story has me thinking now. The one thing I could not reconcile is Todd had no motive. No infidelity and no financial issues and no record of abuse. But reading your story makes me wonder… was Barb being secretly abused and nobody knew it?
I'm so sorry. I believe you.
This is what I believe was going on.
That’s the life living with a narcissist.
You’re so right! For 24 yrs everyone thought that I had the perfect marriage. On our 30th year I got free.

Traumatic events can create false memories according to the defense. Yes, like a pipe falling off a truck lol
Not only twice, but thrice. When Todd was called to testify he named a 3rd "customer" wanting his windshield replaced. He too was found to refute Todd's claim.
My husband takes me to work. We take different routes, one of which would be considered going the wrong way.
@@WatchTashi Understood, my friend. But Todd's defense never offered that explanation, only three different specific destinations. And if his memory was flawed, shouldn't we know by now where he was actually going to install a windshield? If there truly was a windshield to be installed, wouldn't by now his defense have found out where he was headed and called that person to the witness stand?
Hmmmm… a guy who makes his living with windshield replacement has a wife who dies from a pipe going through their windshield? Nah… nothing to see here 😎😎😎
Toad Pipehammer couldn't even get the pipe to strike the windshield one time to push his ridiculous story.
How does a pipe from a speeding truck fly off and hit the windshield twice, the second time being the killer.
Embarrassing.
😂😂😂 nothing to see here 😂😂😂
Right. And the kids are wondering why he would go through such trouble if he wanted their mom dead. Because he is familiar with it. It's not the same trouble for them or anyone else who doesn't have their dad's work background 🤔
What are the odds right?
I was thinking the same
Justice was served
The kids are in denial, the evidence speaks for itself, sometimes people just snap
ofcourse they are,they dont believe that their father would do this, yet almost in all cases like this 90% of the times, the partner is to blame. most of these cases are made by partner to their wifes. sad reality that violence againt the women is out of control,its case after case after case... so many female victims.
how did he stage this ? Explain
@@terrorsquadlithcan you explain why he gave conflicting stories about where he was going? He still couldn't get his story straight a year later during trial, so you really can't blame brain fog.
the problem with what you said is that it is lacking motive to snap and no real investigation to the character of the person they suspect killed his wife...
Don't forget the accident conveniently occurred out in the sticks where no cameras were present and he had no response for where they were headed and changed his story THREE times.
Guilty. I was a nurse and the ME’s report basically told the truth…..that she was killed by her husband rather than a random pipe puncturing the windscreen and her. Couple that with the scratches on him and the fact a truck couldn’t be accounted for. Also, he was caught out in many, many lies. I feel bad for the children, but their loyalty is misplaced. Their mother was killed by their father.
Why did he keep lying about where he was going?
"If this could happen to Todd, it could happen to anybody...that murdered their wife"

If he killed her with a gun like kids suggest that would be to obvious he did it. So he takes a pipe and pretends it's an accident from the road. Glad the jury saw the truth
Yeah I thought the daughter’s comment about the killing with a gun was troublesome. It’s too obvious like you said. She goes on to make other troublesome comments like her father doesn’t lie which he blatantly did and acknowledged in the case.

There is literally NO truck seen coming or going during the timeframe their car went by…. That’s because there was no truck. If there is no truck, his entire story or recollection of events is now dismantled. It always amazes me how the children in these cases act as if their mother never existed in the way they stand firmly behind the dads… the evidence is clear. He killed your mother. They are in extreme denial and need therapy.

They actually said there wasn't a truck seen matching his description, so there were trucks. Just a detail.
The scratches on his face, bloody knuckles, all the lies, different route to work, the strange injuries. Very . Plus the other truck would have happened to be going at an enormous speed for the pipe to enter the windshield like a spear
A pipe can go thru a windshield going 55 mph
Why he would go thru this trouble?!?! So he wouldn't get caught! Duh. Wake up son!
And the daughter brags about how many guns dear dad owned. Like if he shot her they wouldn't be able to trace it back to one of those guns. I think the daughter and son are a few bricks short of a load.
@Janadu honestly it makes sense when you've dealt with a narcissist father, the fog is so thick

The coffemug hit her in front of the throat and then flew around and hit her in the back of the head? And the pipe hit her in the front of the head AND the back of the head because she ducked? This truck with the pipe came TOWARDS them when the pipe fell off the side of the flatbed, hit the ground and accelerated towards the windshield of their car? This is confusing to me, because none of it makes sense. Nor does any aspect of his story. A lot of murders happen without an apparent motive. Maybe she wanted to divorce him? The wouldn't have been the first couple to put up a good show for the kids.
Laws of physics outta the window!!
you nailed it
Just way to many injuries for a pipe going straight through the windshield i think.
Exactly, the defence's argument to explain back of the head trauma - oh she ducked. But if she ducked then how did she sustain all the frontal face and neck injuries?
Guilty
Todd is guilty. His kids are deluded. End of story.

When something is flying at my head, I do not, nor would I ever, lean forward in an attempt to dodge it. I would lean to the right, left or backward 100% of the time. Since she was in a car seat with a headrest, backward was not an option, so I'd expect for her to move her head to the right or left. There's no way she received an injury to the back of her head from leaning forward when the pipe is flying at her.
100 percent guilty.
He took a different road and then this incident happened. How come they didn't find the so called truck ?
Daughter is asked about missing her mom and dad, and finally we see tears- over her father’s absence.
When talking about her daughter, she says it’s sad “he’s not around”- not “they”. And she and her family can visit her dad, but her mother is dead….yet only the loss of her father elicits any emotion.
That is really, really, really…..weird.
That did not sit very well with me either. Their mother is gone, really gone; they can at least still visit their father... yet they only recognize the father missing from their lives??
They seem to favor their dad over their mum.
I’d love to give the guy the benefit of the doubt but why would she miss work when she never did? Why did the people he claimed to be doing work for deny that work needed to be done? The suspect was his own worst witness. I’d vote guilty if I was on that jury.

Geoffrey Loftus is the ex-husband of Elizabeth Loftus -- one of the world's foremost experts on memory. She has made a career of testifying for the defense by impugning the memory of eye witnesses. Here we have Geoff providing an opinion that helps the defense by saying that traumatic events interfere with the processing and storage of short term memory -- which is true. But knowing where you were going when a traumatic event happened isn't short term memory. If you were on a plane flying to see your new grandchild and something traumatic but non-physical happened (it was hijacked, it almost crashed into the ocean) you might be very confused (and even completely wrong) about a lot of the events surrounding the incident, but you wouldn't forget why you were on the plane. And you wouldn't change your story about it three times -- "I was going to see my grandchild...uh no I was going on vacation...uh no I was on a business trip."
lol so true
I had a brain injury from a motor vehicle accident. Can't remember anything around the accident but can remember where and why I was going.
@@dianecripps204 Right, that is the typical pattern of a serious head injury. It's like turning off your computer without saving -- all the unsaved memory (that is, the short term memory that has not been transferred to long-term storage) is going to be lost. However, here we're not even talking about a head injury -- just the panic surrounding a traumatic event. That's going to keep you from noticing and/or remembering things during and after the event, but it shouldn't keep you from remembering what happened before, especially well before, which is when he would have decided not to take his wife directly to her school.
If I was on that jury I would have also found him guilty. He lied three times about where they were going that day. That to me would have sealed his fate as a liar. Second, why is there no trace of this mysterious truck? If a video shows their car going down the road then it should have shown the truck in question also. He is guilty.
If it wasn’t for the scratches over his body, his bleeding knuckles and the 3 different lies he told about where he was going, I’d be inclined to believe his story.
However, those bits of evidence are pretty damning. He looked like he’d been in a fight with someone who fought back.
Therefore I think he’s guilty.
He pulled over, beat her, and possibly strangled her, dragged her back in the car and staged the scene.
The kids ask “why would he go to all that trouble when he has 28 guns and could’ve shot her?” Because he wanted to get away with it is why.
🥇
Plus, no evidence of a truck going by on the video camera.
Family never really wants to know the truth. Because all this evidence and some family members still don’t believe this man killed his wife. Guess it’s like when women are abused in relationships and think they are being loved. Nomatter how many people tell them it’s not right, 😢

To me their marriage doesn't sound happy, nor perfect. Happy couples I've seen who are in good marriages have shared interests and friends and also have individual interests and friends, It is not healthy to be living in each other's pockets 24/7.
It seemed like Todd was extremely possessive, who phones their wife every morning on her break at work? Poor Barbara never got the chance to relax and spend time with her workmates.
From when she was 16. he was right there, every minute of every day apart from when she escaped to work and even then he dropped her off, phoned her and picked her up. She had probably finally decided she wanted to do something without him and I'd say that is what enraged him.

He was literally texting her all day everyday. During her work breaks she would have to call/text him. Literally every break she had at work. He drove her to work everyday too. She literally was always with him. That sounds suffocating. Perhaps she was done with decades+ of that and wanted something different for herself.
He killed her at home. And put her in the car
Wow, you're probably right, that didn't even occur to me (or get mentioned as a possibility). Would make sense as to how he staged it so quick. She was already dead, he knew where he would drive to and try to stage the accident..also explained why she never made the calls she needed to make if running late.
With the son there..? Their son was grown, not a child.. he testified that they didn't even have words with each other, that it was a normal morning. It's pretty hard to imagine two people in a drag out fight for your life, and there not being any noise, or things broken and moved around the house.
I think he did it at the farm, they checked on right after they left their home that morning. He had to of done it in steps, he just couldn't of done it all in 5 minutes.

In my opinion, the fact that the pipe made 2 impressions in the windshield- impossible, if the pipe had penetrated the glass and somehow come back out then rotated and penetrated the glass again, the best I can come up with is the pipe would have hit horizontally the second hit, also Barbara would have asked hubby to take her to work then go to pick up the other vehicle, which there’s no substantial evidence the other vehicle existed.

#1 - Why is he taking her with him to pick up a truck for windshield repair (for three different men who say they did not request the repair)?
Why is he taking her with him and making her late to work .. when she is known for never being late?
Deep Cuts on his knuckles, especially left hand (is he left-hand dominant?)
Scratches on his neck and face
How could he break the windshield by striking it with his hand from the driver’s seat?
Why did he not try to flag down the person who drove by his car at 8:00 that morning?
Did the person who drove by that morning see that the windshield was broken?
Why would he take time away from rendering aid to his wife to pull the pipe out of the windshield?
Did the pipe have Barbara’s blood on it? His fingerprints on it?
Did the water jug have her blood or tissue on it to support the theory that her cricoid bone was broken by her striking the jug when she ducked to avoid being struck by the pipe?
I've been a court reporter for 37 years, so I've heard *a* *lot* of experts testify on just about every subject imaginable, and I have two things to say about experts: Number 1, no matter what opinion an expert has, you can *always* find another expert with the exact *opposite* opinion, and Number 2, if you ask ten different experts (who are experts in the exact same field) their opinions, you'll get ten different answers. Therefore, I don't put much stock in expert witness testimony.
It is self evident to Everyone else that he killed Barbara, except his children....so sad 😔. RIP Barbara
There is definitely enough reasonable doubt surrounding this case
@@barrymicockiner5773no there’s not, any doubt would be unreasonable.
@mamamia8284 Thats like, your opinion, man
Just because the fractured bone in the throat wasn’t the result of strangulation doesn’t mean he didn’t strike her in the throat. Biggest evidence to his guilt is there was no truck on video going the opposite way. He planned it, he had that pipe in his trunk.
As soon as I heard that he replaced broken windshields for extra income, I knew where the inspiration for his crime came from
I wonder why did they not dust the pipe to see if other finger prints would have been found. Maybe give origins of the pipe?
I honestly feel there is so much more they could’ve done. Small town investigators I guess
They might have done that & didn't get anything off of it so it was possibly inconclusive & irrelevant to the investigation.
His fingerprints would be on the pipe anyway, cause it stated in the video he had pulled it out of the windscreen.
His children are in denial .I don’t see a lot of tears for losing their beautiful mother .The husband is a liar.
Why did she have bruises all over her body? Are they trying to say the coffee mug did that too? That's some powerful drink container to crush her throat and bounce around all over her entire body. Sounds like it was more dangerous than the pipe.
Coffee cup thing is absurd.

Not all heroes wear capes 🙏🏼
wow impressive
Thank you!!!!
His leg was really shaking when being interviewed
it was an act trust me.
Yes, I noticed that too, he seemed extremely nervous to be interviewed about what happened
@@Ellewatch-y3jyes
He had not yet taken his anxiety medication that day.
He claimed ^
Barbara's kids are not too bright. Sad.
It's 2024 people, no reason not to get a dashcam
@@Yusuave money is one reason. Especially my case.
so true!
EXACTLY!…
Absolutely NO reason not to have a “dash-cam”… FWD & AFT facing… 👈🏽👉🏽
THE DAUGHTER/SISTER WON'T LET HER BROTHER SPEAK !!!!!!!!!!!!
SOOOOOOOOO ANNOYING !!!!!!!
I noticed this! The son/brother hardly spoke a word.
She annoyed me so bad 😖😖
Maybe that's how mom was, and Todd got tired of it?
He knows
Because she’s a narcissist like her dad!!
33:00 I understand losing short term memory but making up multiple versions up to a year later, even on the stand? How? Why?
Thank you. Watching from Bulawayo, Zimbabwe
Y'all get internet over there in the mud huts? 😂
That's cool!
@@Yusuavea little bit rude, you know, Zimbabwe is a huge thriving city. Well, I don't know about thriving. I think they've had some political issues. But people live like in homes and apartments there as well. Geez l o l.
@@Yusuave so unnecessary and rude
I haven't even watched this yet. 48 hours has NO IDEA how they literally MAKE my morning!
something about him having a side business of repairing car broken windshields feels off
children know but they prefer to ignore the truth, because they refuse to live and lose their father too
Yep, cognitive dissonance for sure
The prosecutor did a good job of bringing justice to this case.
And fyi, a young woman just went thru this,she was on a rd, behind a truck and a pipe went thru the windshield into her chest, she was able to call 911 and pull the car to the side of the rd.
She was lucky. People have died from it. Whether or not that happened in this case is anyone's guess.
Yeah! In this case, the pipe and the coffee mug been flying around in the car causing multiple injuries to just the woman's head and neck.
@@btrueethI'm sorry but I laughed at your comment. 😂 It's just so ridiculous - the hoops they're jumping through to try and explain it away. The coffee mug hit her in the throat then wrapped around the seat and hit her in the back of the head? The pipe hit her in the front of the head and the back cause she ducked? Come on.
@@btrueethno she had injuries and scratches on her body.
Starting with a wedding...perphaps ending with misery and gore...."the heart is desperately wicked, who can know it".

Things are not adding up! He lied several times as to why he was on that road. The passerby saw the car on the side of the road but no pipe. The accident was at 8am, assuming she had to be to work earlier than 8am, she didn’t call her job.,She also didn’t call her Mom (assuming she called prior to work) He is definitely guilty
school cafeteria lady and factory worker flip houses on the side??😮
I shouldn’t make fun but it reminds me of an hgtv meme please may the victim rest in peace
So, why was he driving in the wrong direction????
