I feel like she may have forgot how to actually cry. Real crying is ugly. Your face gets blotchy and red and you get all snotty. You see this all the time, people going through the motions of crying without any of the actual physical manifestations… you’ll never win an Oscar that way.

So many people in the US are very lucky you‘re not sitting on a jurors chair! so many times, i‘m shell shocked what happens with innocent people. they only want to see somebody in jail!
As a psychologist, i can tell you that abused women do not track down their abusers with their car, and scream and yell at them out the window, and rage at them in front of their friends. They dont send 30 texts or 30 voicemails one right after the other trying to find them or accuse them of things. Abused women enjoy every quiet moment away from their abuser.
It's really interesting that you point this out. I am wondering if she even felt abused. I think she may have been so fixated on her 'pleaser' mindset that she didn't even see herself as a victim. She also has a fight response when afraid, rather than trying to escape or hide, suggesting that in trying to please him and not succeeding, she is frustrated. Yes I think she is abusive too Yes I think at least she should have been found guilty of manslaughter Are there more people out there like her that do not see themselves as victims and are therefore not seeking help?
@thielemegan this..cuz I know some abused ppl and they go toe to toe until they get smacked and they pipe down. I don't know whose telling the truth, I just wish ppl would leave at the first sign of emotional, or physical abuse!
People actually killing someone by accident DO go to prison for involuntary manslaughter. The fact that they let this woman go is insane. This justice system disappoints me sometimes.
I have never been as shocked and disgusted with a verdict since the Casey Anthony case. The jury got this WRONG. They let a murderer go free. She was a psycho and dangerous... and a future risk to society. I feel so sorry for his mother! Justice was NOT served. SHAME ON THAT JURY!!
Nope.. casey Anthony case was another level... This won't come near that... I have never seen a case like casey Anthony where I wish I wanted to put that jury in prison... In this case mistakes r done by police... moving the gun and fkced up with confession video which made jurors to have reasonable doubt... Even they agree she killed her and she is guilty but not in prison..and here the victim also toxic towards her....and she was also...But in casey Anthony case... Innocent child died..and the beach got away and roaming free and giving interviews and shows for money
Yes and once again they dressed Casey in ugly clothes for the jury.... I wouldn't wear her court clothes and Casey usually in something like the blue dress in the bar contest would not either
This right here! A victim of abuse and someone scared of another wouldn’t call/text repeatedly and chase him down hollering at him. She is guilty as sin and this was a terrible injustice to him and his family. I have never seen two men more stupid in my life than those two jurors.
yes ppl bond with their abusers and the abuser counts on that.. see ?? shes the problem, etc.. he gaslit her on purpose.. not making excuses.tho.. because she should/could hav walked away.. so could he tho.. and its not the first time he said he was leaving.. bottom line : the state didn't prove their case.
I guarantee you she has borderline personality disorder. Everything they said about her reminds me of my ex-girlfriend. Just look up the symptoms of BPD and it fits her to a T. I 100% believe she did it in a fit of rage. Shame on the jury.
If you are definitively leaving a toxic relationship. LEAVE. IMMEDIATELY! Never "pick a future date" because you are setting a "deadline" and that word is very instructional to someone who is mentally unstable.
And the cops did nothing wrong except for moving the gun. It wasn't their fault that the technology failed. I think there should be improvements in interview rooms, but that's not up to them.
Never tell an abusive unstable person you’re leaving the relationship. Make a plan… keep it secret… and go quietly. Telling an abuser you’re leaving is why people get killed.
So true. Had to do that once--called a domestic abuse hotline. They were stellar. Had a young daughter and two dogs with me. I was able to relocate rather than go into a shelter, thankfully, but would have done what I needed to do. Then he tracked me down and had a couple years of stalking. Was told by abuse expert that it would be safer in my case to not get a PFA. Long stupid story. This was over a decade ago. Haven't dated since. Check about every 6-12 months to see if his address changes and for an obituary. (When he dies I can open my first-floor blinds again.) Daughter was affected but is living a successful mostly happy adult life despite my mistakes. Sure did learn a lot.
@@PianoGesang: Easy to be found in the US. Trackers find hiders in all kinds of ways. Driver license, car registration, insurance, utilities, real estate transactions, vehicle tickets, warrants, court records, rental information, class reunions, hobbies, clubs, common friends, family gatherings, and mentions by others online.
I just pray every single man in America will memorize her face so she never, ever, EVER lures and abuses another man again, may she never find love and rot alone. This is heartbreaking.
It’s because of the terrible police job. He clearly not an angel so me too i would feel guilty sending the woman to jail not knowing what he did right before he was killed 🤷🏽♀️. But anyway i think a little bit of jail time could have her think twice next time.
@@1992pv Ofc not, luckily guns are banned in my country. But you know what I own? A brain. She literally threatened him with a gun before SEVERAL TIMES. The evidence suggests that it was on purpose.

They are right. Go actually learn how juries work according to the law, and until you do I hope you never serve on a jury. You might very well be 99% sure a person is guilty with 1% reasonable doubt, but on the basis of that 1% of reasonable doubt you must acquit! And the degree of doubt must be based on actual evidence presented in court (for example, the botched confession was likely not made admissible, even via the testimony of the cops who received it, so the jurors would never have heard that info, or if they did they would have been instructed to disregard it)m
@@abhinavpatil759 that’s the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. No one can ever be completely 100 percent sure of anything unless they were there themselves.
You have got to be kidding me. I'm just stunned. She got lucky with that jury. 10 spineless jurors let 2 big mouth jurors with 0 common sense bully them into changing their vote. Disgusting
What i don't understand is how 2 men were able to then sway 10 others of a "not guilty"if nothing else it should have been a "hung"jury.And a retrial ...right?
@@susanedrington4878did you also hunted down your abuser whenever he’s not home? Did you keep on calling him to find where he is so he will come home? -asking you these questions as a victim of DM myself
This is scary to watch if you compare her recounting the story to Amber Heard’s testimony on the stand. I’ve never seen someone who is being honest saying “I’m sorry” the way they do when they are trying to cry while telling their story.
If advocate check once again the criminal status of jurors and will find some hidden conviction, there is still chance for repeating trial and putting this girl in the prison finally where she supposed to be for killing a boyfriend.
They did what they were legally bound to do…I agree that there was not sufficient evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that she did it. Beyond a reasonable doubt is key here…and she got lucky
Those jurors don’t make sense. To not even charge her for the minor charges but say that they think she killed him but the lawyers didn’t prove it 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Folks, this isn't how juries work. The prosecution takes a case to a Grand Jury, who decide the charges. Then, the prosecution chooses which of those to bring to court. The jury at trial only gets to decide guilty or not guilty on THOSE charges. If a charge wasn't given to them, they can't find her guilty on it.
It said in the story there were lesser charges, the jury found her not guilty on all of them. Then the one idiot said "I'm not saying she's not guilty", no, that's exactly what you said.
Every responsible gun operator, which she was supposed to be, knows you NEVER toss a gun, not even if it's unloaded. Treat EVERY weapon as though it were loaded!
Nope.. that's a true narcissist right there, she's the abuser who couldn't let go.. this was a bad case, the prosecutor thought it was a slam dunk and didn't do enough to show her narcissistic abusive behavior.. his friends should have been testifying against her as to what they knew and witnessed, the fact that they witnessed HER hitting him! And that they had evidence of her pointing a gun at him.. she was allowed to accuse Steven of rape and abuse with no evidence but Steven had no one to defend him in that trial. It was a very poor case, and not enough evidence was brought out to show her guilt.
Unless it’s a Narcissists. Not taking her side caz I think, she’s guilty. Narc’s are very manipulative and covert. Get away from them fast or this could happen.
She never cried. Not ONCE!! Never shed an actual tear. Never wiped her eyes cuz there was no tears to cry. She played victim from the beginning with her fake frantic hysteria. She changed her story multiple times, which is a sure sign of deception. She never said anything about self defense because she wasn’t attacked. She made up stories to paint Steven as a monster when she was the real monster. And most damaging is that she actually admitted to killing the poor guy. Those jurors let a monster walk free, and she has NO remorse. When I look at her I see an insecure and jealous woman afraid of a man leaving her, and she acted out in anger when she realized he was done. He looked kind and sweet and like he put up with a lot from this woman. Unfortunately he didn’t get out soon enough. I’m so sorry for him and his family… I really hope they push for a retrial. Moral of the story don’t stay with someone because you feel sorry for them, or feel guilty because they guilt trip you into staying. Just leave and don’t look back.
She admitted that she shot him in her 911 call and she never mentioned anything about self-defense or being afraid of Steven when the police arrived. What more evidence do you need?
That doesn't make sense. So, then did the other ten jurors get bought also, in order to get all ten to change their minds about their guilty verdicts? @@derpestarzt
She NEVER acted like a victim who was afraid of him. She drove down him and his friend then screamed at him in public that he come home. The incessant phone calls That's aggressor behavior.
What a colossal miscarriage of justice. Unbelievable verdict. This was a slam dunk imo. How those two jurors made up their minds despite her constant lies about what went down is truly baffling.
ALL of the Jury must agree whether you are guilty or Not guilty. If there are any hold-outs, then it's a mistrial because guilt or innocence has not been determined by every member of the Jury. So for a Guilty/Not Guilty verdict, the entire jury is in agreement. If a single member of the jury does not agree with the other members of the jury and there can be no resolve, then it's declared a mistrial. If the jury verdict is Not Guilty they can not have another trial aka double jeopardy.... but if there is a mistrial then another trial can happen if the prosecution decides they want to go out it again. The Double Jeopardy Clause in the Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution prohibits anyone from being prosecuted twice for substantially the same crime.
It is not believable that he was so violent that she was afraid of him yet constantly blows up his phone and physical tracks him down to insist he comes home. Her story doesn't make sense. Also his friends had seen her hit him on many occasions yet nobody ever saw him hit her. P.S. I'm so glad that the two idiotic yet persuasive jurors were not female.
She’s lying. She’s so psycho. Like a stalker. Fake crying. Stephen isn’t around to defend himself. But I don’t need his testimony. Her lies say enough. She is an abusive, narcissistic, jealous , control freak, that acts up when she can’t have her way, and feels like she owns Stephen like he’s property. She shot him in cold blood.
She came to court with her Aunt Bee act ready. Hair brushed back, a conservative dress, sweater, and lies to attack a dead man. Those jurors should be ashamed of themselves.
The fact that the parents said that as a child she was basically an entertainer, someone who loved being the center of attention, to me, screams someone who was good at acting. Enough to convince the jury, anyway.
She was a horrible actress. I’m not sure if I could have cringed any more. Having an interest in something or a passion for it does not mean you’re good at it.
Chris and Victor failed that mans gamily by introducing such ridiculous doubts to the other jurors. The other jurors are absolutely pathetic for going along with it.
They should be investigated to see what ties they have to her, and to any instances of abuse against someone. Those two men had an agenda. The other jurors? They needed to be investigated too. And whoever had access to the audio of her interview? Find out who tampered with that. Maybe she had a lover on the force.
Now I’ve seen everything. The jury says that she killed him, but they don’t even find her guilty of manslaughter? That woman literally made fools of that entire community.
Exactly, the 2 men said they were just following the law but even by her own admission it’s manslaughter, which still is jail time. So they didn’t follow anything. They are liars too. They just thought she was an angel is what it comes down too.
@@NoPoliticalAffiliationThat’s not how criminal trials and convictions occur. The jury doesn’t get to decide on different charges if they’re unconvinced
When his friend said, "As soon as I heard what happened to him, I knew she did it," that's when I knew she did it. Those closest to victims often know the truth
The red flags were all around this guy! Why would he allow this woman in his home or why didn't he remain with a friend. This is domestic abuse, and he helped dig his own grave, by staying with her!🤔🤔🤔
Her saying he abused her and it was self defense of the absolute cruelest thing to do when the other person isn’t there to defend themselves. Shame on her. She can’t even fake cry good. Pure evil and cold blooded killer
I agree. She is psychopath. She's fake crying with no tears. She is a horrible actress. He probably tried to push her away while she was in his face or hitting him, and that is most likely how she received the bruises.
Not saying that she is innocent but I just want to point out that abusive people won't admit to abuse. My daughters dad abused me for years and he still lies about it I confronted him face to face in the court room and he lied
Taking the self-defense angle after the officers on the scene moved the gun was smart. Where it may have been when they arrived can't be proven, so it makes it more difficult for the prosecution to dispute the claim of self-defense.
Why are they idiots? The evidence was tempered. You are supposed to check the evidence and not your emotions when deciding a case. And as others said: how is it that they convinced the rest of the jurors? This case was truly butchered by many people.
@@sarahdeshay1394 Although this young woman was not likable and laid the whining and tears on way too thick, there was reasonable doubt. There are two predominant emotions that abuse victims carry around with them: fear and rage. That would explain much of her behavior during the course of her relationship with Steven. His text messages showed his intention to harm her if she didn't obey She was not necessarily innocent but was found Not Guilty because her guilt was not proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Plus, this Steven guy was far from an innocent lamb. Far, far from it.
This case makes me lose faith in the legal system . I'm absolutely horrified that this cold blooded, controlling woman got to end the life of someone else's son AND gets to walk away completely free. I'm truly repulsed !!!!
The one juror.. “I didn’t say she’s not guilty. But she’s not in prison.” I think he meant to say.. “I didn’t say she’s innocent. But I found her not guilty.”
Exactly. My 26 year old son has a child with a girl that constantly cried domestic violence. He would have marks but nothing on her. He admits to breaking their TV out of anger from her constantly with holding their son and coming at him. I don't condone him breaking anything but humans lose their temper. It's been a constant battle for the past two years with her. She doesn't allow any of the family to see the baby. No one has been nasty to her, as much as we'd like to. Men often are seen as monsters and not believed that they were abused simply because they are men. My kids were all taught to not strike a partner. Fights happen but violence is not the answer on either part. It just stinks that my son is in jail and the ex is the one that did the abusing. She's 4'8 and he's 6'3. He'd honestly hurt her had he ever struck her. He'd also catch the wrath from us for doing so. This trial was a mess. Yes the confession was messed up but she changed her story so many times. She cried crocodile tears. Why get up on the stand and accuse your deceased husband of rape and abuse when you have never told anyone about it before.
@@dontwakethedeadp.jankey9592 omg I’m so so sorry to hear this. Heartbreaking. I hope things turn around for the better. Using a child as a pawn is disgusting. My son’s father completely disowned him, but we still visit that side of the family. I just tell myself one day he’ll be able to visit on his own. They’re good people who happen to have a bad apple in the family.
@@user-lq9es6wm9s thank you. We're really hoping to now see past her games and focus only on himself and his son. She will get a restraining order and then beg him to visit only to them turn him in. He wanted so desperately to rectify their relationship so the baby didn't have to grow up in a broken home. Good intentions with poor judgement.
@@user-lq9es6wm9s95% of murders are committed by men. If this is one of your worst fears for your son, the actual stats should very much reassure you.
Poor Steven. The definition of a battered boyfriend. Kudos to 48 hours for talking about a case like this. People need to get out of these toxic relationships sooner than later. It’s not endearing that a person is clingy like this. It’s a red flag!
2 utterly dumb jurors. What about the grease on both parts of the gun? Why no food on her face when the cops arrived, if Steven had thrown it? What happened to mess up the interview. I believe Steven's friends and the gun demonstrater. Hey, guys...run for your life if you ever meet someone like her.😢
Because they actually LISTENED TO THE EVIDENCE?????? They based their verdict on what they were supposed to. You, and all agreeing with you, are the dumb ones. You don’t make decisions on someone’s life in your hands, based on your emotions. I hope y’all are never on a jury. You’re not believing in justice. You believe in revenge.
The prosecition created much resonable doubt....based on the evidence, there lack of and the ACTUAL charges, I understand why she got not guilty. She definately did it and I do believe she should have gotten SOME time b/c she was full of it on some things. Not to say that Steven deserved what he got, but his family made him out to be a saint and he clearly wasnt
Do you have “ guilty beyond all reasonable doubt” in America? If so I fully understand the two jurors upholding the legal system, in spite of their “personal” opinions. They have put their faith in the legal system over their personal views.
World's dumbest jurors. Imagine if a man killed his girlfriend and gave the excuse that she was "abusive". He'd be serving life. Unreal double standard...
Amen but she still has to answer to the laws of karma And the expression "God works in mysterious ways"She's not home free yet in her future I'd be shocked if there wasn't any life retributions in store for this woman of many "fake" tears.
Those 2 jurors have it spot on, I think she did it no doubt but they followed the law, gun moved, confession botched, and why not pay to unlock his phone? Ridiculous. The police messed this whole thing up start to finish.
@@sophocles1198 this argument is insane. Just like the reported asked " so because the police messed up, she is not guilty?" And then the juror says, I didnt say she wasnt guilty, she is just not in jail? WTF are you all talking about? 2 dumb jurors just poisened the well. The dumb juror also said he would have probably lied too. Is he banging the defandant? or whats the deal, no one is that dumb.
@@RJ1234-d1sNegligent investigation doesn't erase her confession. At very least the jury could've found her guilty of the lesser charges. Disgusting, moronic people.
She can't be retried due to double jeopardy. This is something which has been abolished in other sensible countries. Although, even then significant new evidence has to surface. The only point now is to sue her for the death, with a civil law suit. There the burden of proof to prove culpability is lower.
@@cig35661 It's widely known that Muricans aren't always the sharpest tool in the box. For instance, the US is 146th in the World for literacy, just behind Zimbabwe and Zambia. However, trial by jury is something inherited from Britain under the system of Common Law. The right to be judged by your peers. The alternative is to be tried by a Judge or panel of Judges. Though trial by jury, isn't going away, any time soon. In the 12th century, Henry II took a major step in developing the jury system. Henry set up a system to resolve land disputes using juries. A jury of twelve free men were assigned to arbitrate in these disputes. And this is still what operates today.
Jurors don’t understand “beyond a REASONABLE doubt” not “beyond ANY doubt”. Why don’t lawyers explain this better?! These jurors are a prime example of not understanding this!!!
Right. They said their decision was based on the law but it wasn't and they weren't corrected. Not even by the other 10 jurors! They probably just wanted to go home. It's sad this guy didn't get justice and they let this crazy woman out to wreck some other poor man's life probably.
I agree. And there was lots of reasonable doubt in this case. Even convicting on a lower charge would have made sense if they were conflicted. Jury got it wrong this time.
You WERENT there! You are watching a 45 minute video. And you cannot lock someone up based on your own gut. You actually have no idea what evidence they heard in its entirety. Grow up. This is an ignorant, immature comment. You don’t know anything.
“ I didn’t say she wasn’t guilty. I said she wasn’t in jail” This is complete injustice. This juror voted for the wrong reasons. Such BS. Committed a crime on top of a crime. That’s all he did.
I think he probably meant that she might have indeed killed him intentionally or by accident, but that the prosecution didn't prove their case by beyond a reasonable doubt. Our criminal justice system is designed to minimize the possibility of wrongly sending an innocent man to jail. In so doing, it acknowledges that there will be cases where truly guilty men walk free. It's a trade off, the lower the hurdle rate to send someone to jail, the more innocent people will end up in jail. The higher the hurdle rate to prevent innocent people from going to jail, the more guilty men will walk free. Which kind of society would you rather live in.
I feel like the 2 jurors were taking out their own agendas against the judicial system instead of looking at the whole picture and using circumstantial evidence to convict. Clearly, she shot him. She admitted to shooting him. I bet these 2 would feel differently if one of their loved ones were shot.
Jurors in America are the worst. Big boy just wanted to date her. Absolute worst. There is a reason that jurors should be held accountable. The family needs to go after them!

@@Nagra007yes because people's emotions to not come into what decision the jury makes. And the judge always reminds the jury of this.
Never tell an abusive unstable person you’re leaving the relationship. Make a plan… keep it secret… and go quietly. Telling an abuser you’re leaving is why people get killed.
So true. Had to do that once--called a domestic abuse hotline. They were stellar. Had a young daughter and two dogs with me. I was able to relocate rather than go into a shelter, thankfully, but would have done what I needed to do. Then he tracked me down and had a couple years of stalking. Was told by abuse expert that it would be safer in my case to not get a PFA. Long stupid story. This was over a decade ago. Haven't dated since. Check about every 6-12 months to see if his address changes and for an obituary. (When he dies I can open my first-floor blinds again.) Daughter was affected but is living a successful mostly happy adult life despite my mistakes. Sure did learn a lot.
The problem is, you also have to move away. Here in my country it is not as easy as in the States but thanks for the advice.

They are right. Go actually learn how juries work according to the law, and until you do I hope you never serve on a jury. You might very well be 99% sure a person is guilty with 1% reasonable doubt, but on the basis of that 1% of reasonable doubt you must acquit! And the degree of doubt must be based on actual evidence presented in court (for example, the botched confession was likely not made admissible, even via the testimony of the cops who received it, so the jurors would never have heard that info, or if they did they would have been instructed to disregard it)m

@@Sedonalive13The defense chose a really dumb jury.
Folks, this isn't how juries work.
The prosecution takes a case to a Grand Jury, who decide the charges. Then, the prosecution chooses which of those to bring to court. The jury at trial only gets to decide guilty or not guilty on THOSE charges. If a charge wasn't given to them, they can't find her guilty on it.

As a victim of domestic abuse I would NOT chase down the abuser. I also would not be burning up the phone wire chasing down the abuser.
Nope.. that's a true narcissist right there, she's the abuser who couldn't let go.. this was a bad case, the prosecutor thought it was a slam dunk and didn't do enough to show her narcissistic abusive behavior.. his friends should have been testifying against her as to what they knew and witnessed, the fact that they witnessed HER hitting him! And that they had evidence of her pointing a gun at him.. she was allowed to accuse Steven of rape and abuse with no evidence but Steven had no one to defend him in that trial. It was a very poor case, and not enough evidence was brought out to show her guilt.
Unless it’s a Narcissists. Not taking her side caz I think, she’s guilty. Narc’s are very manipulative and covert. Get away from them fast or this could happen.
She's guilty as heLL!!!
No because she was abusive to him. But none of that matters to the jury
Exactly!! Thankyou!!! When my abuser didn’t call me for an hour I breathed a sigh of relief not blow up his phone!!
She never cried. Not ONCE!! Never shed an actual tear. Never wiped her eyes cuz there was no tears to cry. She played victim from the beginning with her fake frantic hysteria. She changed her story multiple times, which is a sure sign of deception. She never said anything about self defense because she wasn’t attacked. She made up stories to paint Steven as a monster when she was the real monster. And most damaging is that she actually admitted to killing the poor guy. Those jurors let a monster walk free, and she has NO remorse. When I look at her I see an insecure and jealous woman afraid of a man leaving her, and she acted out in anger when she realized he was done. He looked kind and sweet and like he put up with a lot from this woman. Unfortunately he didn’t get out soon enough. I’m so sorry for him and his family… I really hope they push for a retrial. Moral of the story don’t stay with someone because you feel sorry for them, or feel guilty because they guilt trip you into staying. Just leave and don’t look back.

One thing an abusive victim won't do is annoy her alleged abuser,track him down and provoke him.What were they thinking?
That's not true. Tell me you know nothing about abuse without telling me you know nothing about abuse.

What a colossal miscarriage of justice. Unbelievable verdict. This was a slam dunk imo. How those two jurors made up their minds despite her constant lies about what went down is truly baffling.
Wasn't just those 2 jurors. She was found not guilty. It wasn't a mistrial.
ALL of the Jury must agree whether you are guilty or Not guilty. If there are any hold-outs, then it's a mistrial because guilt or innocence has not been determined by every member of the Jury.
So for a Guilty/Not Guilty verdict, the entire jury is in agreement.
If a single member of the jury does not agree with the other members of the jury and there can be no resolve, then it's declared a mistrial.
If the jury verdict is Not Guilty they can not have another trial aka double jeopardy.... but if there is a mistrial then another trial can happen if the prosecution decides they want to go out it again.
The Double Jeopardy Clause in the Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution prohibits anyone from being prosecuted twice for substantially the same crime.
It is not believable that he was so violent that she was afraid of him yet constantly blows up his phone and physical tracks him down to insist he comes home. Her story doesn't make sense. Also his friends had seen her hit him on many occasions yet nobody ever saw him hit her.

Taking the self-defense angle after the officers on the scene moved the gun was smart. Where it may have been when they arrived can't be proven, so it makes it more difficult for the prosecution to dispute the claim of self-defense.

Exactly. My 26 year old son has a child with a girl that constantly cried domestic violence. He would have marks but nothing on her. He admits to breaking their TV out of anger from her constantly with holding their son and coming at him. I don't condone him breaking anything but humans lose their temper. It's been a constant battle for the past two years with her. She doesn't allow any of the family to see the baby. No one has been nasty to her, as much as we'd like to. Men often are seen as monsters and not believed that they were abused simply because they are men. My kids were all taught to not strike a partner. Fights happen but violence is not the answer on either part. It just stinks that my son is in jail and the ex is the one that did the abusing. She's 4'8 and he's 6'3. He'd honestly hurt her had he ever struck her. He'd also catch the wrath from us for doing so. This trial was a mess. Yes the confession was messed up but she changed her story so many times. She cried crocodile tears. Why get up on the stand and accuse your deceased husband of rape and abuse when you have never told anyone about it before.

@@RJ1234-d1sNegligent investigation doesn't erase her confession. At very least the jury could've found her guilty of the lesser charges. Disgusting, moronic people.
She should be retried with competent jurors. It is very clear she killed him.
Too bad they can't!!! That would be double jeopardy. It wasn't a mistrial or hung jury. She was found not guilty... of any thing!
@@marciayingling7983 Civil lawsuit?
She can't be retried due to double jeopardy. This is something which has been abolished in other sensible countries. Although, even then significant new evidence has to surface. The only point now is to sue her for the death, with a civil law suit. There the burden of proof to prove culpability is lower.
When you go looking for jurors in homeless shelters and mental institutions this is what you end up with....
@@cig35661 It's widely known that Muricans aren't always the sharpest tool in the box. For instance, the US is 146th in the World for literacy, just behind Zimbabwe and Zambia. However, trial by jury is something inherited from Britain under the system of Common Law. The right to be judged by your peers. The alternative is to be tried by a Judge or panel of Judges. Though trial by jury, isn't going away, any time soon. In the 12th century, Henry II took a major step in developing the jury system. Henry set up a system to resolve land disputes using juries. A jury of twelve free men were assigned to arbitrate in these disputes. And this is still what operates today.
Juries are nutty
She said she shot him
She said she did it out of anger
She said she just wanted to hurt him
She should be in prison
Some juries are convinced there's reasonable doubt if there's no video.
She is so faking this that it’s nauseating!
The smug smug look on the killers face and the face of these two jurors pricked my central nervous system---disgusting!!
I was yelling at the TV!
Me too!!!! Every nerve screaming!!!
Crying without tears is a skill a lot of murderers possess. 👏
😄right?!
Exactly! This was the first thing I noticed because it’s an act - there’s no emotions to product the tears. She’s 100% guilty
Jurors don’t understand “beyond a REASONABLE doubt” not “beyond ANY doubt”. Why don’t lawyers explain this better?! These jurors are a prime example of not understanding this!!!
Right. They said their decision was based on the law but it wasn't and they weren't corrected. Not even by the other 10 jurors! They probably just wanted to go home. It's sad this guy didn't get justice and they let this crazy woman out to wreck some other poor man's life probably.
I agree. And there was lots of reasonable doubt in this case. Even convicting on a lower charge would have made sense if they were conflicted. Jury got it wrong this time.
You WERENT there! You are watching a 45 minute video. And you cannot lock someone up based on your own gut. You actually have no idea what evidence they heard in its entirety. Grow up. This is an ignorant, immature comment. You don’t know anything.
It works both ways
On the contrary
I hope those 2 jurors never face what his mother is enduring… it is called PAIN…
😢😢😢😢
The jury got it so wrong. What a shame.
The system failed Steven!!!how can you convince me that she's not guilty smh 🙄🙄
She tried so hard to act cry and even the interviewer's face showed that he knew she lied, LOL
Why did you keep all those guns in the house if you're living with someone who's threatened to shoot you with them???
They both hunted.
He would never not have his guns. Clear you have never known a true hunter.
Better to know where they ate than not know. .th ere is always more to attain.
@@marivipalomino6975not with a .380 Glock
Good point.
I can’t BELIEVE those jurors!! They failed this man. I feel SO sorry for his mother. Wow. She murdered that man & got away with it.
And she can do it again, knowing she got away that easy!
Not at all .... They actually did what was right .... Blame the prosecution and sloppy police work instead ..
She could barely get out the statement that he abused her because she knew it was wrong to falsely accuse him!
Shameful display for the defendant, attorney and jury. Let an obvious murderer go free by victimizing the victim.
For all the scenes of this girl crying, you'd think we'd at least see an actual tear.
“ I didn’t say she wasn’t guilty. I said she wasn’t in jail”
This is complete injustice. This juror voted for the wrong reasons. Such BS. Committed a crime on top of a crime. That’s all he did.
White. Woman. Tears.
Yeah, that statement he made didn't even make sense. Those two jurors seem a bit dimwitted.
Horrible jurors. They literally changed the other jurors' minds.
They punished the cops, instead of the murderer. I can't even...
I think he probably meant that she might have indeed killed him intentionally or by accident, but that the prosecution didn't prove their case by beyond a reasonable doubt.
Our criminal justice system is designed to minimize the possibility of wrongly sending an innocent man to jail. In so doing, it acknowledges that there will be cases where truly guilty men walk free.
It's a trade off, the lower the hurdle rate to send someone to jail, the more innocent people will end up in jail. The higher the hurdle rate to prevent innocent people from going to jail, the more guilty men will walk free. Which kind of society would you rather live in.
I feel like the 2 jurors were taking out their own agendas against the judicial system instead of looking at the whole picture and using circumstantial evidence to convict. Clearly, she shot him. She admitted to shooting him. I bet these 2 would feel differently if one of their loved ones were shot.
Jurors in America are the worst. Big boy just wanted to date her. Absolute worst. There is a reason that jurors should be held accountable. The family needs to go after them!
