@@LisaLisa-wy7pwI'm from the north as well & do not entirely agree. Honest people, liars, and sociopaths no matter where you live. We have our share of Melody, Rusty, and Karens. That's for sure.
Why don't they interview Melody Ferris's boyfriend with regards to him possibly helping her in the murder of her husband and placing the body in the burn field.
He was interviewed and took the stand. Either there is no evidence linking him, or they did a deal. But I haven't heard anything to show there was a deal. She could have rolled her husband onto a sheet and dragged him out?
@@pattyf33she may have shot him and chased him out into the burn pile or there was also blood on the tractor. I'm surprised there are not more forensics such as tractor wheel marks leading to the pit etc. There is a lot of questions that could be answered and narrow the speculation. Searches on her phone or home computer etc too. No mention one way or another. Evidence as it stands she did it. There is plenty of physical & circumstantial to put that sociopath in prison.
Who burns 🥵 a body and just leaves the remains sitting on there to be discovered by anyone or law enforcement?? Was she actually wanting to spend the rest of her days in jail?Mind boggling!? 🤯🤯
I think she planned for one of her kids to find him. In fact it was Melody who drew Scott’s attention to the burn pile. Asking him if he had put a goat on the pile!!
I understand Judge Ashley feels Scott Farris is talking too much but if he doesn’t answer the attorneys questions wouldn’t he be considered unresponsive?
I agree!! The attorney is responsible for the speed and fact giving of the clients! She keeps asking…what did that look like etc!! It seems to me he is being honest. However I am from the south and went to graduate school Not in the south and people go insane over how slow we are to get to the point 😂
Well, exactly! He's not just narrating a story and adding all kinds of unnecessary details. It's the attorney that's asking the questions, and he's answering. For a judge, she's kinda dense.
It would help if the lawyer tightened up her questions but Scott is narrating his answer as opposed to just give the 1 sentence or 2 and let the lawyer has a follow up to get a bit deeper details, if needed. The judge needs to chill on him and direct their issue to solely the lawyer.
He might ramble but that's just how he is. I had a fellow CO worker that would do the same. It took forever for her to get to the point. Very frustrating
And the mother was a greedy unfaithful insufferable old. Woman that believes she has a second chance at going back in the streets. Just a typical woman from America. Won't everything from a man. Want everyone to believe they are independent and strong while asking or taking from the previous man. And believing that they are still in their twenties. Even when they look as if they should be in a convalescent home... Just a modern American woman
I only watch this channel for the court coverage and never to listen to the presenters because I find them ridiculous. Just my opinion but they don't seem very professional.
Why don't they find Chris likeable? I thought his details were helpful. So he was close to his Dad, so what! I was close to my Dad, Mom not so much at all!
I would be gobsmacked if that woman at her stage of life and height, size, could lift that man and put him on a burn pile. I think it would be impossible without help. Strange the brother would go to the burn pile when they just thought the father may had have had a medical episode or just wandered off. Really strange.
Yes it was the Dad who didn't want to make a big deal of it. I do believe she probably did try to poison him on and off. This woman is 100% guilty along with her boyfriend
And the other son was just as bad. At 41 the only positive was he served in the military, but then came back to live off mom & dad. He had to get dad's atm card to get cash to play golf with his buddies. Sorry, lazy adult men.
He worked on the farm and I’m thinking that’s probably not the easiest job! These two aren’t the only ones who’ve used their rich parents’ money. At least they both had jobs! What about the two sisters? I’m sure they received/used just as much, I honestly think more, than the two men! The youngest got a brand new car The two guys didn’t. It’s not like this is unheard of or a crime!!! lol
Think about it.. No one said he died in the basement.. He was shot in the basement.. Stumbled up the steps leaving drops of blood.. Stumbled outside to get away from the wife.. Stumbled down by the burn pit to get away from the wife, and the wife comes up behind him.. Him being weak from being shot the wife pushes him to his death..
@lobo1368 I thought the same thing. Then I realized that it would be highly unlikely that whoever did it just happened to coerce him to stand right near the burn pile to complete the act right there in the most convenient location. Possible. But it's hard to believe for me.
One min, he said his parents didn't like each other. The next min, his father loved his mother very much. He just doesn't like his mother. I don't know if she's guilty or not. Because he could have killed himself by the fire pit for all we know. There's no real proof of anything. Mistrial or not guilty
If the father stated he thinks the wife is poisoning him you would think being a lawyer he would get some of his food tested? Or seeing he ate out continue to eat out? So to me someone else has done this not the wife
Yes, And He Poisoned his children against her. Why would a father reveal their sex lives to his children? Why would he bad mouth her? I don't like the dad
Everything is hearsay a lot of the time with this guys stating things he knew nothing about but stating i was told, bla bla bla. I would be asking if the condo was cancelled why pay for something you don’t need to. This woman is a strong on and talks logically under pressure.
I don’t know what’s going on w court TV. The parent-child relationship is complicated. I found this to be more true w monied families as an ICU RN for a few decades. His verbal pattern doesn’t seem dishonest to me. He got it out that his dtrs seemed to prefer being w grandparents. No surprise when $ isn’t an issue for grandparents. The son may have had issues w drinking or dependence on his dad for $ that helped him see his daughters after a divorce. Less fortune kids make a choice to either fall prey to weaknesses or realize they have to do it on own, trade, school or work like a horse to get ahead. She didn’t have access to money so felt controlled, trapped & for 15 yrs had some relationship w another man. I don’t find him unlikable… not for what he’s been through & how his dad enabled dependence.
The only time i notice tgis woman have emotion, in all these recordings and phone calls is when it directly is about her. No one elses life seems to matter emotionally, in my opinion!
Why is everyone so quick to assume that she was incapable of this? The son just stated his fathersais he was going to do the burn pile on the 4th. If he was standing out by the fire, tending to it, she could walk right up behind him, shoot him, and push him forward into the fire pit. I may be missing information. I don't know where he was shot (location, as in or out of the house). But if he was out there, and she wanted him gone, that would seem to be a pretty tidy way. I need more info.
I think this too but I've just started to watch this trial and began with his testimony first. I don't like to watch any thing pretrial or the opening statements. Regardless of how many commenters feel about Gary gave frequent sums of money to his kids, I feel that was his prerogative and has no bearing as far as I can so far see.
life is too short to act an evil like this woman did! They should've divorced long time ago civilly. Some people don't mind spending their rest of life just to torture others. It's diabolical obsession! She probably enjoyed her sadistic behaviors after all these years. pretty dark and sad.
I would be pissed if i was a wife and my husband was paying everything for these so called adult guys who should be paying for their own stuff. Talk about lazy entitled guys.
So what. It was entirely up to him not her. I'm sure he was exasperated with his children but was just used to it. After taking the $50,000 from their account before without asking and disappearing with her lover Ted for four months, then she forfeited her right to any money. I'm just sad that he didn't divorce her.
This gentleman and his brother Scott look like twins, I even thought it was Scott, anyway, about the wallet, he said he did not find it, which would mean, according to his theory that Gary would not be at home or nearby, if Melodie was the murder, she would have every interest in the wallet not being found so that they would not look for Gary in the house or nearby, however it was Melody who found the wallet... UPDATE: I just heard Scott testimony which contradicts his brother, he said that his father would never leave his wallet in the car (the mercedes). Well...
If Ms Farris had taken the divorce papers instead of hiding, this man would still be alive!! I believe she is a narcissist. It doesn’t matter if her husband died, the granddaughter was still spending the night. It’s what She wants and no one else! WOW!
I don't believe the mother did it....this son seems strange .he hardly makes good eye contact. Maybe the father cut him off ? I think the mother shows emotion ..she may feel broken hearted to think her son is testifying against her while she believes he did it ..this son has mental instability ... The father took care of him..he probably did have an alcohol problem. Something is very off. They need to investigate him more imo
Kind of funny he remembers everything as mother says, but he can’t remember a timeline when it has anything to do about his whereabouts or who he was talking to or you know any of those things.
Why didnt she just divorce him..... she would have received half the assets and money if thats why she did it. Son could be setting her up ...... he was one to receive all funds. Reasonable doubt
In Ga if the spouse is cheating it would affect the divorce settlement. Plus the fact that she left him for a boyfriend and took 50,000. Dollars to boot!!!
I’ve been binge watching this case. I’ll tell you right now, my husband never could find anything right in front of of him. It could have been dropped between the seats, or even under. My husband actually lost our oldest son who was 2 years old at the time in Sears. If I hadn’t come around with our other baby finished shopping who knows where he would have ended up at. My husband was the worst for paying attention.
He was intending to do some burning that day, according to his son. All she would have had to do was follow him to it and ambush him. She wouldn't have needed to move the body very far, if at all. She might have needed to add additional flammable things to the burn, but that wouldn't necessarily mean she wasn't strong enough to do that. She also had plenty of time to get rid of the weapon. 😕
Maybe she didn’t need to move the body to the burn pile if dad was already at the burn pile tending to it. Shoot, fall, burn. Just one of many possibilities. Definitely need to hear more testimony and evidence. Not trusting this witness to give a full 360 degree look at his parent’s dynamics. He definitely seems to lean to one side. Maybe justifiably maybe not.
That’s true but there is zero evidence tying her to his murder. This trial is a waste of time and money. She will surely walk. Can’t convict on conjecture.
Plus the lawyers in cases like this sometimes prep them to be prepared for questioning. Plus being nervous, upset. Their whole lives & family have been completely changed in the worst way for life! This is such a sad situation. I truly believe the wife did it. I believe they loved their dad.
I’m feeling the older brother is lazy, arrogant and only wants to have fun. How do these people not have jobs? Especially having kids to support. He acts like he’s a victim. I have lots of opinions 🙄
Umm is she being a little defensive? Or do you think Scott is being asked to disclose too much personal information without any objections from defense team?
I dont believe him at all . Who wouldn't be upset if your trying to drink while intoxicated with the grand kids in the car!! He had a lot to gain from Dad's death also. He also had the time opportunity and motive.... He's a thief and a liar. !!! Did anyone hear he had his dad's credit card "Number" and spent on it without the dad knowing... He didn't have the physical card he had credit card number he said..... Low down thief stealing from the man that supported you your whole life.. This guy is a spoiled brat and I understand why Mom was at odds with him because dad has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on this turd... Dad bought fiance's engagement ring yuck.!! He didn't care about his daddy only Daddy Bank of America... He's done so much shade on his mom it makes me want to vomit.. You know why he magnifies her wrongs so no one will focus on his lousy ass..BAM !!! He could have killed the dad. !!!
LOL! He was already investigated! He has a solid alibi when this happened! Now the other brother who lived on the farm may be guilty! They found .38 caliber ammunition in his loft apartment above the barn.!
He is trying to make out his mother was the worst, WHY because she was trying to stopped him from throwing out all this money to these adult siblings. Why would they not be angry at the father having an affair yet angry because the mother was. The reason is because the father had deep pockets and they wanted the money.
One of the boys was stealing from the father, taking his credit card and the father called him and told him he was going to get a new number. This guy is not credible he is a really good story teller.
Another case of she couldn't possibly have murdered her husband, because according to court tv anchors and pundits women are not capable of such crimes, so we will blames the sons instead, what about the boyfriend? She is guilty and should be punished.
The people who are commenting on court tv are experts. This is what they do day in, day out. She may have been involved, but her lifting a man of that weight and height is ridiculous. She would have needed help if she was involved. Maybe the son who worked for the dad loved the money more than his dad.
@@suzannelindsay2247 it's not a case of them being experts, it's a case of a court tv narrative, it is always the same, woman charged with murder has to be innocent. And have you thought the victim could have been shot in the house but managed to get out of the house under his own steam but was shot again outside.
@@suzannelindsay2247could have is not beyond a reasonable doubt. They should not have charged her. They don’t have the evidence to back up the murder besides her not liking him.
You guys need to stop getting on about the son Chris. He talks like how someone would speak if he were recalling, so yes a lot of details. None of his testimony sounds rehearsed. Melody looks evil just sitting there, mouth all tight.
I’m sorry but the son talks too much which to me makes me feel he is NOT credible. He doesn’t answer directly and rambles on about things changing his answer in mid-sentence!
Talk about embarrassment, what about his wife’s feelings, he was the first one to play up all the time, how come they did not know he was having an affair.
Sounds like the sons are plotting against their mom.They were used to the father that paid for everything although both had worked but then again using his fathers credit card without consent....noooo the mom looks cold I would to if I knew my husband was sharing everything that was going on in the house with our children.They are old spoiled brats
He got appointed by a family lawyer probably thru the dad’s law firm. If you have never been involved with an estate it can be a nightmare to try to explain to your siblings. You have a longer list of what you can’t then can. Then the internet lawyer in the family shows up and tries to force you
@ To have hope beyond Death, knowing the Heavenly Father has prepared a place no more pain or sorrow, FREE forevermore. Yes he is safe in the arms of God. Gary is here in spirit🦅 To have no hope that you will never see them again will get you just that👍 Believe and know that day will come God is Real he loves you
I can't decide if this guy is really shady or just a bad liar. He states he was never aware of any group texts, then later in his testimony he states there were group texts.
Dad dominated the family with his money and by confiding in his son (maybe others too) as to the problems with his wife. Nothing about dad's affairs and such - just his wife's. Dad encourages the respect or disrespect of their mom. Interesting case. Family. And here, a rich family.
Psycho Co-morbidity & Dependent Personality Disorder come to mind with this family, she’s manipulating & controlling & he is a mid 40s toddler throwing mini tantrums to get what he wants! Both have very high expectations that need to be managed & not through their ‘perceived & assumed’ entitlements!!
Why would he shout at her because she knew he disliked her so obviously she would shout at him this gut is a liar, he is really trying to prove his mother is a killer.
The father could have shot himself by the fire pit and fell in. Scott might have moved the gun, because without the gun, there is no proof of who does it belong to. So a look at the guns registered under each family member or relatives. This can sort out a few questions.or who has bought a new one.
The reason why there father stated accept your mother back is because he did not know his father was having an affair with his secretary. The father was spending more money on the adult children than his wife. I think he did a mans look. I have even look in a place umpteen times i swore blind it was there, but i never saw. When someone else help me it was there right where i left it? This should be struck out. He left the property? Did the officer search his vehicles before he left. I think a lot of the search and evidence by the police was botched up. Being an Attorney what can one say? If he was poisoned or felt he could have, he had the knowledge to go get his food tested, or get tested for poisoning. This woman would know he could get the food tested. So no she did not kill him one or two of the boys did it, or one with an accomplish, maybe one he owed money to and his father was not going to bail him out.
I have a so called best friend lacing my food with edible Marijuana. It took very long and finally one hospital did the test and found high Thc in my system. I felt like high like a, kite and couldn't function well. One hospital did give lorazapam to get my heart rate down.

The audacity ...of Gary spending Melody's and Rustys money - on his kids!! 😮🙄😬
WTH why would a middle aged man expect their dad to pay for an engagement ring, the whole family was just using this man
More so, the two sons, as grown men, were finically abusing Gary’s wealth.
Why don’t any of the commentators come to a conclusion that maybe he was killed at the burn pile???????????

A lot of people think that the suns actually killed the dad and they’re framing the Mom because of the money
It sons
I think it is very possible that one or both sons did it. The dad, seemed like they used him as a cash cow.
My opinion is obe or both sons are guilty and setting up the mum
Considering they weren't there, and SHE was, that's more than unlikely. This is the trail. The investigation has been done.
I would be pissed if i was a wife and my husband was paying everything for these so called adult guys who should be paying for their own stuff. Talk about lazy entitled guys.
What the hell has this got to do with her murdering her husband father of her children I assume
EXACTLY
So what. It was entirely up to him not her. I'm sure he was exasperated with his children but was just used to it. After taking the $50,000 from their account before without asking and disappearing with her lover Ted for four months, then she forfeited her right to any money.

I don’t think it matters. To me he doesn’t appear credible.
The lawyer got a lot of leeway.
Even the grands knew who to ask for a weekend at the beach.
DAD'S an ATM
He is VERY pro dad
No, she is asking questions in an orderly manner and so far any objectionable leading would only need rephrased so nothing major so far.
Why there is no mention of her cheating partner? They are grilling his and hers son. He has been thru enough.
I think he’s very credible. Come on you two, lighten up. 🤪
If Ms Farris had taken the divorce papers instead of hiding, this man would still be alive!! I believe she is a narcissist. It doesn’t matter if her husband died, the granddaughter was still spending the night. It’s what She wants and no one else! WOW!
I can understand how Melody feels when her children expect Daddy to pay for all their living conditions
I cant imagine having so much excess and arguing over it. What a bunch of nasty ass greedy people.
I don't believe the mother did it....this son seems strange .he hardly makes good eye contact.
Maybe the father cut him off ?
I think the mother shows emotion ..she may feel broken hearted to think her son is testifying against her while she believes he did it ..this son has
mental instability ... The father took care of him..he probably did have an alcohol problem.
Something is very off.
They need to investigate him more imo
Agree absolutely
I agree with you 100%
Kind of funny he remembers everything as mother says, but he can’t remember a timeline when it has anything to do about his whereabouts or who he was talking to or you know any of those things.
There’s no way she moved him to the burn pile.
Why didnt she just divorce him..... she would have received half the assets and money if thats why she did it. Son could be setting her up ...... he was one to receive all funds. Reasonable doubt
In Ga if the spouse is cheating it would affect the divorce settlement. Plus the fact that she left him for a boyfriend and took 50,000. Dollars to boot!!!
If she win this trial
Keep grandchildren away from
Glam Ma😅
I’ve been binge watching this case. I’ll tell you right now, my husband never could find anything right in front of of him. It could have been dropped between the seats, or even under. My husband actually lost our oldest son who was 2 years old at the time in Sears. If I hadn’t come around with our other baby finished shopping who knows where he would have ended up at. My husband was the worst for paying attention.
🥰 Lost in Sears made me smile. Awe…
Did she lure him to the burn pit then shoot him and he fell in??
He was intending to do some burning that day, according to his son. All she would have had to do was follow him to it and ambush him. She wouldn't have needed to move the body very far, if at all.
She might have needed to add additional flammable things to the burn, but that wouldn't necessarily mean she wasn't strong enough to do that.
She also had plenty of time to get rid of the weapon. 😕
It's such a shame. Divorce would be better. Feel sorry for the kids.
She looks like The Cat in the Hat😂😂and I can't stop seeing it
Imagine her green she is the grinches child
I wonder if that is years of filler. Thank God I don't mind a few wrinkles.
Maybe she didn’t need to move the body to the burn pile if dad was already at the burn pile tending to it. Shoot, fall, burn. Just one of many possibilities. Definitely need to hear more testimony and evidence. Not trusting this witness to give a full 360 degree look at his parent’s dynamics. He definitely seems to lean to one side. Maybe justifiably maybe not.
Despicable mother blaming her children of murder
That’s true but there is zero evidence tying her to his murder. This trial is a waste of time and money. She will surely walk. Can’t convict on conjecture.
The children are blaming their mum trying to set her up
I think the son is likeable and credible
me too! I'm born and raised in new orleans so the way he talks is normal to me lol.
@@marmalade0223 that's interesting, thanks
This son gives me a weird vibe with his seemingly ‘unsure’ yet rehearsed responses.
He started off not clear on dates. Then he becomes very clear on dates and mentions months, years without a problem.
@@suzannelindsay2247I’d imagine he was super nervous at first, but then relaxed and was better able to recall
Plus the lawyers in cases like this sometimes prep them to be prepared for questioning. Plus being nervous, upset. Their whole lives & family have been completely changed in the worst way for life! This is such a sad situation. I truly believe the wife did it. I believe they loved their dad.
I’m feeling the older brother is lazy, arrogant and only wants to have fun. How do these people not have jobs? Especially having kids to support. He acts like he’s a victim. I have lots of opinions 🙄
I dont trust either sons
Umm is she being a little defensive? Or do you think Scott is being asked to disclose too much personal information without any objections from defense team?
Objection, relevance! Ridiculous amount of irrelevant questions.
@@AussieTruthSeeker😂ok
Why do I get the creeps that this son is not being truthful? Gosh I hope I’m wrong
He seems VERY rehearsed and the sons of this hardworking man were not very ambitious
Agree
Chris Farris’ voice and inflection sounds like Tom Hanks to me.
He does seem very rehearsed
I dont believe him at all .
Who wouldn't be upset if your trying to drink while intoxicated with the grand kids in the car!! He had a lot to gain from Dad's death also. He also had the time opportunity and motive....
He's a thief and a liar. !!!
Did anyone hear he had his dad's credit card "Number" and spent on it without the dad knowing...
He didn't have the physical card he had credit card number he said..... Low down thief stealing from the man that supported you your whole life.. This guy is a spoiled brat and I understand why Mom was at odds with him because dad has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on this turd...
Dad bought fiance's engagement ring yuck.!!
He didn't care about his daddy only
Daddy Bank of America...
He's done so much shade on his mom it makes me want to vomit..
You know why he magnifies her wrongs so no one will focus on his lousy ass..BAM !!!
He could have killed the dad. !!!
LOL! He was already investigated! He has a solid alibi when this happened! Now the other brother who lived on the farm may be guilty! They found .38 caliber ammunition in his loft apartment above the barn.!
good thing you're not on the jury.
Oh my... where all these came from?😂
I think u mean drive.
She's got enough reasonable doubt imo and her attorney did well cross examining Scott. Yes, he rambled too much, but he was quite a dagger.
I don't know about you! But she strikes Me as a very Hateful B...... 😢
I swear I was thinking the same thing. She never smiles. Looks like a straight B.
I would be upset too if my adult children were constantly draining dad and mom’s bank accounts.
He is trying to make out his mother was the worst, WHY because she was trying to stopped him from throwing out all this money to these adult siblings. Why would they not be angry at the father having an affair yet angry because the mother was. The reason is because the father had deep pockets and they wanted the money.
Why does it matter when he met his first wife or kid’s born ⁉️
For timeline, clarity, and disclosure of personality, relationships and behaviours and to be frank ensuring that defence don't to try and malign him.
Curious: if mom gets life no parole, what happens to Daddy's estate??????
It would go to the next of kin living relative, maybe sons? like the menendez Bros had the estate until
They were found guilty of Murder to get it
That all depends on how the father’s Will was written and how the Deed to the property was written as well. It doesn’t just go to the next of kin.
The first son testified he would get it if the mother is convicted.
She would not be allowed to benefit financially from his murder so it would depend on what the rest of the will says.
One of the boys was stealing from the father, taking his credit card and the father called him and told him he was going to get a new number. This guy is not credible he is a really good story teller.
They're showing themselves as sincerely devoted to their father. The boys seem nice BUT they were heavily subsidized and yet criticizing their mother.
Another case of she couldn't possibly have murdered her husband, because according to court tv anchors and pundits women are not capable of such crimes, so we will blames the sons instead, what about the boyfriend? She is guilty and should be punished.
The people who are commenting on court tv are experts. This is what they do day in, day out. She may have been involved, but her lifting a man of that weight and height is ridiculous. She would have needed help if she was involved. Maybe the son who worked for the dad loved the money more than his dad.
@@suzannelindsay2247 it's not a case of them being experts, it's a case of a court tv narrative, it is always the same, woman charged with murder has to be innocent. And have you thought the victim could have been shot in the house but managed to get out of the house under his own steam but was shot again outside.
@@suzannelindsay2247could have is not beyond a reasonable doubt. They should not have charged her. They don’t have the evidence to back up the murder besides her not liking him.
My opinion she is innocent I beleive they should Investigate the sons
You guys need to stop getting on about the son Chris. He talks like how someone would speak if he were recalling, so yes a lot of details. None of his testimony sounds rehearsed. Melody looks evil just sitting there, mouth all tight.
I’m sorry but the son talks too much which to me makes me feel he is NOT credible. He doesn’t answer directly and rambles on about things changing his answer in mid-sentence!
He talks like someone with ADD. I know firsthand lol my stories are long winded and tangential
Talk about embarrassment, what about his wife’s feelings, he was the first one to play up all the time, how come they did not know he was having an affair.
Sounds like the sons are plotting against their mom.They were used to the father that paid for everything although both had worked but then again using his fathers credit card without consent....noooo the mom looks cold I would to if I knew my husband was sharing everything that was going on in the house with our children.They are old spoiled brats
These hosts are bonkers. I believe this witness. mom is nuts. bf might have helped move the body? She’s tough, could’ve drug him behind atv.
The more he talks, the more he seems to take ownership of the assets. Probably why the defense is not objecting.
He got appointed by a family lawyer probably thru the dad’s law firm. If you have never been involved with an estate it can be a nightmare to try to explain to your siblings. You have a longer list of what you can’t then can. Then the internet lawyer in the family shows up and tries to force you
Yes, something is fishy how he's so elaborate, it's like he loves storytelling
Sad where’s the love for your son
Gary is Free🦅
Gary is dead
@ To have hope beyond Death, knowing the Heavenly Father has prepared a place no more pain or sorrow, FREE forevermore. Yes he is safe in the arms of God. Gary is here in spirit🦅 To have no hope that you will never see them again will get you just that👍 Believe and know that day will come God is Real he loves you
I can't decide if this guy is really shady or just a bad liar. He states he was never aware of any group texts, then later in his testimony he states there were group texts.
2024 and court and interrogation audio is stuck in 1990
Dad dominated the family with his money and by confiding in his son (maybe others too) as to the problems with his wife. Nothing about dad's affairs and such - just his wife's. Dad encourages the respect or disrespect of their mom. Interesting case. Family. And here, a rich family.
I get bad vibes from this guy.
He seems genuine to me
Poor guy loves his father
Very
Sure you do. Anyone but the greedy, cheating, lying wife. Right? Smdh
I just left a comment that I don’t find him credible.
Scott really sus
Agree
Psycho Co-morbidity & Dependent Personality Disorder come to mind with this family, she’s manipulating & controlling & he is a mid 40s toddler throwing mini tantrums to get what he wants! Both have very high expectations that need to be managed & not through their ‘perceived & assumed’ entitlements!!
He didn't want to fo work on the farm but he got that allowance
Son did it!
Yep.
Nope
Weird that the Son knows exactly where the Father keeps his wallet. ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING....
Why would he shout at her because she knew he disliked her so obviously she would shout at him this gut is a liar, he is really trying to prove his mother is a killer.
Boy he drys up his fake tears quick don’t he
those are real tears
That's how it works when you spent so long crying on and off. Clearly you've never lost someone
The father could have shot himself by the fire pit and fell in. Scott might have moved the gun, because without the gun, there is no proof of who does it belong to. So a look at the guns registered under each family member or relatives. This can sort out a few questions.or who has bought a new one.
The reason why there father stated accept your mother back is because he did not know his father was having an affair with his secretary. The father was spending more money on the adult children than his wife. I think he did a mans look. I have even look in a place umpteen times i swore blind it was there, but i never saw. When someone else help me it was there right where i left it? This should be struck out. He left the property? Did the officer search his vehicles before he left. I think a lot of the search and evidence by the police was botched up. Being an Attorney what can one say? If he was poisoned or felt he could have, he had the knowledge to go get his food tested, or get tested for poisoning. This woman would know he could get the food tested. So no she did not kill him one or two of the boys did it, or one with an accomplish, maybe one he owed money to and his father was not going to bail him out.
She looks like a very mad mama to me. She didnt do this is how i feel.
I agree my opinion is she is innocent
These boys did not want their dad dead. They live off of him. They need him to be alive and continue working.
I have a so called best friend lacing my food with edible Marijuana. It took very long and finally one hospital did the test and found high Thc in my system.
I felt like high like a, kite and couldn't function well. One hospital did give lorazapam to get my heart rate down.
He really enabled this spoiled son!! Wonder how he will make it now that his dad is not there paying for everything for him?!!?
Poor Dad!!! Spoiled his son and then he used his credit card with out permission!! Feel so sorry for the dad!!
Dad had the ability to put a stop to it, so maybe that’s exactly what he did, and the two sons retaliated.
