I’m so sick and tired of sob stories, from criminals, of abuse against them, while growing up, and into their adult lives! My siblings, and I suffered through every form of abuse, throughout our childhood, and early adult years, but the abuse didn’t cause any of us to become criminals, let alone murderers!!🤬🤬🤬 We are all hard-working, law-abiding citizens! It is NOT that hard!!🤷♀️🤬
Maybe you weren’t predisposed to becoming a sociopath or psychopath. It isn’t only environmental, it’s also biological (brain structure, if I remember correctly.). Be grateful you aren’t them.
@Vicki Mariette while it's true only a fraction of abused people become hardcore criminals, it's also true everyone reacts to trauma differently. What one person can survive relatively intact can fracture another's psyche and cause dissociative identity disorder. Like most things trauma reactions are a spectrum, with extremes at both ends.
So True!!...a rough childhood doesn't give anyone the excuse for becoming a criminal...My siblings and I are all hard working, law abiding people..we don't believe in the "victim mentality" either...
@@littlesthobo182 And if that was all the defense could offer, it clearly wasn't enough. Her callous and defiant attitude and then playing the victim role was not in her favor.
Being abused as a child doesn't automatically make you a murderer when you grow up. Accountability by the offenders is what is missing in these terrible tragedies.
@PatchaChef what's really missing is proper sentencing, and prisons that retain dangerous criminals rather than releasing them. A perpetrator taking responsibility is wonderful, but keeping those who don't behind bars is a much greater good imo.
She knew exactly what was going to happen. If she did not want them to be murdered, they would’ve broken in to find the letter when he was not at home.
This is absolutely tragic! These criminals killed 2 wonderful men that spent their time making other people get well. This makes me sick! These wonderful men died because of a letter. My heart goes out to the living daughter/sister.
It is very strange. She had already been found out and wasn’t fired, why did she need the letter so bad? Was she afraid that the doctor would sue her or something? This woman seems very entitled and narcissistic.
But if not for her actions the Dr and son would be alive.. What a despicable woman! greed , envy, not being content. He should have fired her for embezzlement. She could have taken small loans from her boss am sure he would have assisted here. Pure greed. .
Gleeful Me, she should have been convicted of the murders most definitely. I'm just glad that the Judge had enough insight to make her pay with 30 years of her life. I can't believe that she could have walked with probation! That would have added even more injustice to this case. May they rest in peace.
@@Donna-qt1ot you're right Donna. I thought she was guilty as sin. Didn't see a single real tear. Well rehearsed performance. You lovely Americans let us down here. You can deliver impressive sentences such as 8 life sentences plus 50 years to run consecutively and all you could manage here was thirty years. I hope she stays put for the whole term at least and forget the 'good behaviour' early release deal.
Maria looks like your typical problem person, always has their hand out, but pretends they don't. Trying to make people feel sorry for them; steals from u then helps u look for it.
I think she wanted to leave once she had been caught and couldn't steal anymore. Probably had another potential target/victim so she needed the letter! That was evidence which would've prevented employment elsewhere. That is the only plausible explanation for the overwhelming desire to get the letter. Also, no witnesses to the embezzlement. So sad that these generous gentlemen died because of these filthy thieves. She stole 9000 dollars! For 2 LIVES! She could've asked the doctor for a loan and paid it off with extra work! Cleaning his home, walking his dogs, cooking for him, anything... Lazy and evil is her core character. My prayers for everyone that loved these two men. They are at peace.❤🙏
What the hell 😳 what has childhood got to do with her having knowledge of a murder. She knew and failed to alert the police. She caused the death of 2 innocent people.
I got family members that were sexually abused by my great grandfather and then beaten by her husband . She didn't murder anyone . Trauma isn't an excuse to kill .
I don't really believe the story that they were only there to retrieve the letter. Maria & her boyfriend may have BEGUN by talking about just retrieving the letter, but I think eventually they decided they didn't want to pay back the debt at all...& their plan shifted to retrieving the letter and killing the doctor. Why else would experienced criminals break into a home at night, when the homeowner was guaranteed to be there (& in fact his car was in the driveway!). That's not an accident, that's intentional timing.
That's exactly what I was thinking... why go in when they know they are there? They both worked, would have been easy to do their break in while they were at work. Makes no sense at all. I know darkness hides them, but there are a lot of burglaries in the daytime.
daylight robberies in coral gables would hav been very hard to pull off..! if you live in S FL you know.. just your crappy or middling car driving down boca, palm beach or the gables, raises suspicion.. and for a Reason.. the taxes they pay, the jobs and services they do.. the 3 places l mentioned are all within 1OO miles of each other, but thus rendition would hav you think they are close. (they are not) but any area well protected.. try a daylight robbery! blahahahaha! gtfooh..
same goes for the defense attorney ruthless..I bet you the gutless jury and the defense attorney would be singing a different tune if it effected them family/love ones....women..when comiting crimes..always always blaming the men
First of all, the sister and defense attorney have aged beautifully. What strikes me about this is how all these people came together to “help” a woman protect herself from potential fallout from the letter. She was the only one who was going to gain by eliminating that letter. The judge was absolutely right, she had already gotten mercy from the doctor. None of this other stuff ever should have happened.
@@leanie5234 Defence lawyer looked very well to me. From the earlier footage of her in court, I imagine she decided to lose some weight. And black women in particular often choose wigs, and look very glamorous in them. I thought the wig was far more flattering than her own hair, as seen in court.
What a lovely daughter/sister of the victims. Gorgeous hair!!! I admire your commitment to your deceased family members during the trial. Very admirable. My condolences to you.
This is the first time I’ve ever came across these episodes, that was an awful thing to happen, but so glad they found the truth, she knew what the boyfriend was going to do, what else did she expect breaking into someone’s home, stealing all that money from her employer and he forgave her, says a lot about the heart of that man,,but she listened to the low life boyfriend, so sad
Very heartbreaking yet intriguing case. These are the faces of true evil. She wronged him and then punished him and his family for her lack of loyalty to a very forgiving man. What I find interesting is that the good Dr ended up keeping the most valuable piece of evidence, the letter, in his pocket. Guessing as a Dr he was probably a pretty detail oriented person. Seems like divine intervention. I personally think the jury got it wrong. If they believe she was guilty of the burglary she was guilty of the murders. I do respect the decision of the jury. It couldn't have been easy. Great video!
I don't know, I think a more detail oriented person would have filed the letter away somewhere. Having it in his pocket is more like what I would do (and I'm not very detail oriented)
@@royalmichaels1289 Ok, now I get you.. divine intervention for him to have it in his pocket, BECAUSE he was prob detail oriented.. As the poem begins about sunrise on a Massachusetts beach, "Light dawns on Marblehead" lol
I love Tamron Hall she has class and she is a professional I love her content and she's a very pretty woman keep up the good work Tamron Hall can't wait for your next show as always
Wth does her cildhood have anything to do with this heinous crime?? It`s ridiculous that stuff like this is even allowed to be discussed in connection with a crime like this. This "Lady" is so guilty, she caused it all.
Loved the judge in this case … with so many empathy from the jurors in the end the judge took it upon his own hands and gave her maximum. He obviously did t agree with the first 2 verdicts. Even the sister was shocked and impressed of the outcome. Thank you judge !!! With 39 years I’m sure she will be very well into her 70’s late 70’s before probation.
The public should not serve on juries anymore because they don’t follow the law. They go by their emotions and biases which they prove over and over again. Should all be bench trials now, which means a judge decides.
The jury system is expensive too, resulting in retrials because of one hold-out. We also need to examine the critical thinking capacity of the general public and its level of education. And finally, the jury selection process itself.
Similar to the ongoing FSU Law Professor, Dan Markel, murder case in Tallahassee. All involved slowly but surely being brought to justice - just the wife, brother-in-law and mother-in-law left to answer for their involvement.
She dried up those tears quick too...I am repulsed by this lady.... She thinks she is the smartest person in the room... She told the truth in that interrogation until she finds out about the law that will convict her even though she didn't pull the trigger....
I’m an emergency room nurse now retired, and when the daughter said “I’m a nurse, I’ve seen blood and I can handle it and I’m going in no matter what you say” despite the victim advocate saying not to go in… you may be able to handle it in a work or emergency situation but it’s completely different when it’s your family member or loved one. Don’t be so thick headed if this ever happens to you. (God forbid!)
I think gun violence is awful but let’s never forget criminals will never follow gun laws and will always be able to get them, law abiding citizens are the ones who loose.
@@LadyAngela678 whenever they invade the gun owners home and many masks shootings are stopped by CC but for some reason our media NEVER converts that story.
It didn't occur to any of them to look for the letter during the day while these men weren't home?!?!?. He had already let this incident pass so were they planning a burglary and were afraid this letter would connect them to another crime?!?!?
I understand why she wasn't convicted of murder, but I'm so glad the judge made up for it by giving her 30 years for robbery. Terrible way to spend your golden years, she totally deserves it.
Those crooks could have gone in when no one was home. Yet they knew the men were there. THEY meant to kill them! ALSO something is up with those checks: Who were they made out to?!? Follow that money trail. I think her and her boyfriend stole MUCH more and the Dr was going to go to the police. Soo her boyfriend was actually sneaking the letter INTO the house. And he needed the Dr dead. ,🤔
I really can't find it in myself to feel bad for her!! I usually am the first one to find empathy in just about any situation..But This woman absolutely knew what was GNA happen to those Men!!! I just can't with her!!!
This is tragic and grievous all around. I am so sorry for the loss of Dr. Jarrett and his son, Greg. I am normally very strict in favor of the harshest sentences in cases like this. However; I do believe Maria seemed remorseful and repentant by writing the letter to the Dr. I also believe she could have been manipulated by her boyfriend for whom she might have (partially) embezzled the money. For me that created reasonable doubt, as well as the possibility of the detectives coercing her. Men and women, please be careful and wise about whom you allow into your life. No one is worth this.
There are two systems of justice in the US, one for the poor and one for the rich. Maria was convicted of lesser charges while the murderers of Dan Markel, the Adelsons, (Who are wealthy) never got charged!
their own law states that if a murder is committed during a felony burglery, then all parties involved are guilty. so they convict her of the felony burglery, but ignore the murders. it's THEIR friggin law. why do they only apply it to certain citizens and not others?
Maria's lawyer has a twisted sense of justice. She said Maria "tried" to steal from her boss. She didn't "try", she DID steal from him. The lawyer also said Maria had already received redemption and forgiveness from her boss for stealing. The problem is: he didn't forgive her for GETTING HIM KILLED. Typical defense lawyer. Twist the truth at any cost. They believe the means justify the end. Well, look at the end for your client. If not for Maria, the men would never have been murdered.
I am SO confused! Over a letter??? Super Unhealthy levels of paranoia!!!! So father and son are dead because of a buried issue that involved a letter of confession??? Why didn’t she retrieve/ STEAL it back herself, safely???
The Defense Layer was Bad believing that her client was not Guilty. It does not get any more Clearer then this that she was Dangerous trying that other do her Dirty work
Did the defense attorney really believe it was OK to set Maria free on society? She showed no loyalty and was quick to lie about her interrogation. Her behavior did not need to be rewarded with freedom, especially since on the stand she showed no remorse and only made excuses for herself.
Wo cares about your past. You stole money from you employer, that is bad enough, then you gave a map of the mans house to your boyfriend. Yes you are guilty.
There is absolutely no evidence of the doctor requesting that she write him a letter. Anyway, even if he had asked her to admit, in writing, that she had stolen from him, she should only have seen it as the doctor being careful, surely not as a threat ! Had he wanted to prosecute her, he could have easily done so. More likely, the admission was a method of enforcing repayment of her theft. She didn't want to repay it.
It’s not sometimes, it’s always that things work out with a little bit of luck. Never trust or forgive anyone who was able to betray you once. They will do it again 100%.
What waste of two men lives who helped other people in that community. Why did the suspect even mention the letter in the first place? The Doctor & His son a Nurse would probably still be alive today! IMO
As a person whose husband was robbed and murdered, I can't feel sorry that woman. I hate that she was raped, but that still isn't justification for the evil that she commented! They tried that poor childhood drama mess at my husband's murder trial. Thank goodness they still found the murderer guilty and gave him life in prison.

You got it in one
She's no lady. A lady does not conduct her life in such a manner. She's a thief , and an accessory to murder that is female. That's all.
Killed for a letter. WTH. Why not go into the house when no one was there?
They wanted them dead , so that there were no witnesses to her crime . It was planned and deliberate.
That is what I didn't understand. I also do not know why they needed the letter. Why take people's lives over such a small amount of money.

DUMB!! They could have gone in the house when the men were at work....took the letter and got out.
Bingo!
Right?! Excellent point
She could have just asked for the letter back. He probably didn't care.

I really can't find it in myself to feel bad for her!! I usually am the first one to find empathy in just about any situation..But This woman absolutely knew what was GNA happen to those Men!!! I just can't with her!!!
Her lawyer got her off.. blood on her hands..
This production deserves an award 👏👏👏
All over a letter ridiculous.
This is tragic and grievous all around. I am so sorry for the loss of Dr. Jarrett and his son, Greg. I am normally very strict in favor of the harshest sentences in cases like this. However; I do believe Maria seemed remorseful and repentant by writing the letter to the Dr. I also believe she could have been manipulated by her boyfriend for whom she might have (partially) embezzled the money. For me that created reasonable doubt, as well as the possibility of the detectives coercing her. Men and women, please be careful and wise about whom you allow into your life. No one is worth this.
"Remorseful"..in other words, sad she got caught. Pure trash
Why are you acting like a grown woman had the mentality of a child? It's insulting.
I suffered and survived extreme abuse.
I would never steal from my employer.
Do not use that to justify criminal behavior.
She's not sorry she's just sorry for herself
Love Miss Tamron.✿
There are two systems of justice in the US, one for the poor and one for the rich. Maria was convicted of lesser charges while the murderers of Dan Markel, the Adelsons, (Who are wealthy) never got charged!
if not for Maria theses men would be alive today.
their own law states that if a murder is committed during a felony burglery, then all parties involved are guilty. so they convict her of the felony burglery, but ignore the murders. it's THEIR friggin law. why do they only apply it to certain citizens and not others?
Maria's lawyer has a twisted sense of justice. She said Maria "tried" to steal from her boss. She didn't "try", she DID steal from him. The lawyer also said Maria had already received redemption and forgiveness from her boss for stealing. The problem is: he didn't forgive her for GETTING HIM KILLED. Typical defense lawyer. Twist the truth at any cost. They believe the means justify the end. Well, look at the end for your client. If not for Maria, the men would never have been murdered.
Winning becomes the paramount goal for the defense in many cases. The fallout is setting criminals back out into society.
No clue why i watched this story until it ended!
Meeting some people in life is unfortunate they ruin your future
Her lawyer was excellent because I was sure she was done for!!
Thank you for another episode 🌹
I am SO confused! Over a letter??? Super Unhealthy levels of paranoia!!!! So father and son are dead because of a buried issue that involved a letter of confession???
Why didn’t she retrieve/ STEAL it back herself, safely???
Always waiting for an episode of Someone They Knew. ❤️❤️
To the Beautiful Jared Family, our prayers are with you 🙏🏼 🙏🏼 ❤❤️
Abuse doesn’t make you a murderer!! SHAMEFUL!! That doctor was good to her!! Punishment cannot be too harsh!!
The Defense Layer was Bad believing that her client was not Guilty. It does not get any more Clearer then this that she was Dangerous trying that other do her Dirty work
Did the defense attorney really believe it was OK to set Maria free on society? She showed no loyalty and was quick to lie about her interrogation. Her behavior did not need to be rewarded with freedom, especially since on the stand she showed no remorse and only made excuses for herself.
No good dead goes unpunished…. help people that make bad choices you end up, having to deal with their chaos and crimes..
Maria is as guilty as hell. She should've been convicted of all charges.
What does being sexually assaulted in the past have to do with killing 2 people?
Wo cares about your past. You stole money from you employer, that is bad enough, then you gave a map of the mans house to your boyfriend. Yes you are guilty.
The doctor probably told her she'll get fired unless she writes that letter. She comes across as the mastermind of everything that happened.
There is absolutely no evidence of the doctor requesting that she write him a letter. Anyway, even if he had asked her to admit, in writing, that she had stolen from him, she should only have seen it as the doctor being careful, surely not as a threat ! Had he wanted to prosecute her, he could have easily done so. More likely, the admission was a method of enforcing repayment of her theft. She didn't want to repay it.
She knew, she was part of the plan, and if she didn't know she would have told the police as soon as she found out they had been murdered.
I am sick and tired of the excuses that defendants come up - that does not give you the right to take someone’s life🤬
It’s not sometimes, it’s always that things work out with a little bit of luck. Never trust or forgive anyone who was able to betray you once. They will do it again 100%.
I am happy the judge had some sense even if the jury didn't. What she did and said led to their deaths, how the jury couldn't connect that is sad.
Yeah, it’s not luck. It’s moronic criminals making (stupid) mistakes.
Strange to think an apology letter, the same thing that would move you to forgive someone, could also be the thing that leads to your death.
Juries can make me so mad.
All this over a stupid letter are you kidding me?? Wow. All she had to do was keep her mouth shut about the letter. No need to murder anyone. Sad.
Why couldn't they have just got in when neither one was home?
What waste of two men lives who helped other people in that community.
Why did the suspect even mention the letter in the first place? The Doctor & His son a Nurse would probably still be alive today! IMO
Good point, a real loss to the community as well . The damage that stupid people can do

Thank you so much for your reply L'il Moe!
to much of the daughter show the evidence and a reporter
As a person whose husband was robbed and murdered, I can't feel sorry that woman. I hate that she was raped, but that still isn't justification for the evil that she commented! They tried that poor childhood drama mess at my husband's murder trial. Thank goodness they still found the murderer guilty and gave him life in prison.
Tamron, classy, and professional 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
