I want to meet this prosecuting attorney...she is absolutely awesome listing to and observing how she maneuvers and navigates so solidly and securely cross examining witnesses!!! She is fabulous!!!
OMG!!! I can't do this anymore! This defense lawyer is missing brain cells! All his questions are useless and make no sense. Lots of repeating what the prosecution asked. I have found myself skipping through his questions. Time to retire this one!! I'd say Leon's family has pretty much helped send him away!! Strong prosecution...should get the max!! Egotistical freaking monster!! Bye bye Leon!!!!
Totally agreed lol....I am almost thinking this is a set up by having this lawyer be so incompetent that he will be granted a new trial or whoever hired him should demand half their money back
I don’t think they will get it thrown out or retrial because of the status of that attorney. The lawyer has a good reputation so they may have screwed up thinking they would get the judgement! That lawyer is very well known in the area with a very high rep. So I don’t think their manipulation game will work
This Leon guy is killing me sitting up here like he's some damn high profile lawyer when really he's just a common THUG just like the guys he looks down on when they go to jail! Arrogance at it's worse!
Hey commenters, the bad lawyering we see here is actually the legendary defense lawyer, George Parnham. He tried to drop his client (Leon Jacob) due to prior conflicts with Jacob and his mother. Parnham was the famous attorney who represented Andrea Yates, the depressed mom who drowned her 5 kids in the tub. Parnum is now 80 years old and may have dementia, OR ... he’s helping set up an appeal for Jacob for failure to represent him professionally and adequately in court. Take your pick.
George Parnham may need to recognize it is time for him to step down and realize the new young guns are highly intelligent, strategic, and tactically outrunning him!!! I am disappointed in how superficial and shallow his defense has been? I think he (Parnham) may know in this case he's just receiving a paycheck for services knowing this case is lost big time???
The recorded calls done all the exposing of this sociopathic mongrel and he was stripped bare with the jailhouse call with his mother who I believe set him up to fail right from the get go of this trial. Very smart woman being able to appear supportive whilst ensuring that she never has to suffer the indignation and humiliation of a son that brought nothing but failure and embarrassment to the Jacob name.
Tim McCartney and he doesn’t have an ounce of reality, sooo sick, doesn’t EVEN care !!! I have dealt with two people like this and it is sooo shocking, their no connection !!!
Mariann Pasquale Guantanamo bay is a prison where they baby the prisoners or at least now they do what you need to do is send him to the super max in Colorado 👌
Parnham is living off his one famous psychopath client, Andrea Yates. Who he didn't get off. And who he contacts weekly now she's a lifer 🙄 Pitiful excuse for professional and if he was cognitively tested, far too compromised to practice law.
Good call I mean who talks to their mother like he did on that collect call. “I think she wants to sleep with me” and you can see how his narcissism was nurtured by his enabling mother tell him about that women who said he was beautiful. Talking like that when your on a charge as grave as a solicitation to commit capital murder charge. You can see where his priorities are. I firmly believe that everyone and anyone who ever had any interaction with him we’re over joyed at the prospect of him getting a life sentence and never having to deal with any of his self absorbed dramas he created in his life.
I don’t know how she can stand talking to him. I could only listen to him about 60 seconds and I would be done. I have never heard someone so arrogant.
It's ironic that as controlling as he was, every woman he mooched off either kicked him out or ended the relationship. It sounds like he was angry he was losing his sugar mamas.
this leon is looking for fame and publicity " ohh how it would make a good book" he stated! Such an egotistic Narccisist Why he's so desperate for being caught HaHAHa!!
Leon Jacob is a very dangerous man and should stay in prison the rest of his life !!!!!! It's certainly not surprising that he wasn't even able to get a job wasn't even able to finish his residency because nobody wanted to hire him
His own attorneys are damaged him more than the prosecution. They were all, each one of them, the worst attorneys I have ever seen. I can only assume that they hated him too and were doing convert Ops to ensure a guilty verdict.
What does this comment have to do with anything? We didnt hear anything from her ex-husband. But we do know her ex-husband didnt hire anyone to kill her.
Because some inmates continue to harass their victims even after being incarcerated. There’s also drug dealing going on. They have lost ALL of their rights. Best thing is to live your life so as to NOT be incarcerated, it’s not difficult.
Nah I already decided that Jodi should be cellmates with Russell Williams. I realise they are opposite genders, but Russ is already half way there in transitioning what with his underwear modelling. He just somehow needs to get to prison in Arizona.
Same thoughts here. I remember seeing this case On dateline, but I was looking for more trials to watch , and found this one crazy, fascinating and crazy!
Normal people just break up and move on. He is a perfect example of a malignant narcissist. Zero insight, zero remorse, the list goes on and on. Shame he is/ was, superficially only, a good catch.
Man this has got to be the old man's final hoorah. Absolutely awful the way he questioned Meghan at the penalty phase. It was quite disturbing when he asked her if it was appropriate for Leon to contact her mother so he can find her and hurt her? WTF! The look on her face was complete astonishment.
Give the psycho your dog and then drive to his enabling mother's house... she clearly was so frightened she wasn't thinking except to try and survive. The first time anyone speaks to or treats their partner in the ways she describes... please get out ... I grew up in a situation like she's describing but the egg donor that was my mother was the antagonist. Very scary.
Having been in a DV/stalking relationship many years ago, I cannot imagine having my face covered in duct tape even in a controlled situation. I’m so impressed with her calm demeanor in trying to get this guy convicted and put away. I’ll bet he has a sweetheart scam going on from prison.
Why in the world is the defense attorney challenging what an 13 year old girl would have done? I know she's 19 now but she wasn't when Leon punched her brother.
If he got out with probation, his Mom and everyone else who stood up for him would again be “begging, begging, begging “ him to do what he should AND WOULD HAVE NO EFFECT ON HIM 😬
That old lawyer needs to be in a retirement home , reading Mills and Boon romantic novels: I mean, he didn't want to abuse, terrorise and kill these women he just wanted to love and look after them, living happily ever after........ he really id ga-ga.
When they'd ask Megan about his love for her, she did well. I wouldn't have been able to hold back saying "his behavior was obsessive, not love." Way more but love doesn't mean you're a possession to be punished for spending her own money, have rights to her own furniture w/o his conditions. This is far 2:13 beyond wanting to be in control but true pathos! What a pathos!
She committed suicide while out on bail. She was a lovely person by all appearances - smart, successful, beautiful, kind but not doing well mentally when she met LJ. She allowed herself to be manipulated with devastating consequences (supposedly to keep custody of her daughter but that seems unlikely in light of her suicide - more likely it was about the money).

Leon is a wrecking ball. He destroyed so many families.
Roberta Green I know !!! people over and over he manipulated and hurt, it is unbelievable !!!
Leon Jacob is a very scary person, it's good he can't hurt anyone else !!!!
@@slim7435 so true!!!
Typical borderline personality behavior. Contact with them spells doom.
He wasn’t even a real Doctor, never made it. What a loser!! Somebody in there will find him pretty, Bubba!!!
Thank God justice was served to Megan, Annie, and Valerie. Hopefully this monster never sees the light of day again. No parole.
OMG!!! I can't do this anymore! This defense lawyer is missing brain cells! All his questions are useless and make no sense. Lots of repeating what the prosecution asked.

I think his mom knew exactly what she did hiring this lawyer.. 🤭
Full on NARCISSIST!!!

Ha, Kelly we share a similar thinking process.
This Leon guy is killing me sitting up here like he's some damn high profile lawyer when really he's just a common THUG just like the guys he looks down on when they go to jail! Arrogance at it's worse!
at _it's_ worse ? wtf
True
somehow his arrogance remind me on Ted Bundy
He is/was an MD.
Parents can really screw up their children and Leon Jacob is a perfect example of that.
He’s not a very good sociopath. That prosecutor took him right down! Nice !
She was great 🎉
I love this girl, McKenzie. My God - what she went through.

ugh..i knew he looked familiar....yates...thats it
I am going with the Dementia. He is mixing up everything.
George Parnham may need to recognize it is time for him to step down and realize the new young guns are highly intelligent, strategic, and tactically outrunning him!!! I am disappointed in how superficial and shallow his defense has been? I think he (Parnham) may know in this case he's just receiving a paycheck for services knowing this case is lost big time???
The younger defense attorney did not look as bad, being more cogent, but he damaged his client far more in my opinion.
McKenzie handled herself well on the stand considering her age. Well done, young lady.
Vickie Lewis her age?
@@seka1986 She was a senior in high school during this video (either 17 or 18, I can't remember).
the defense is doing an awesome job to expose Leon as an absolute waste of life. may his karma visit him every minute for rest of his lousy life
The recorded calls done all the exposing of this sociopathic mongrel and he was stripped bare with the jailhouse call with his mother who I believe set him up to fail right from the get go of this trial.
Very smart woman being able to appear supportive whilst ensuring that she never has to suffer the indignation and humiliation of a son that brought nothing but failure and embarrassment to the Jacob name.
@@frank1903 🎯🎯🎯well said ,. Mama finally has peace.
Leon is now a pass around piece...as Big Bobby' s punk.
THATS REAL Justice ....MAMA STYLE ! 😂🤣🤣😂
Leon is a ruiner leaving a trail of victims.
Tim McCartney and he doesn’t have an ounce of reality, sooo sick, doesn’t EVEN care !!! I have dealt with two people like this and it is sooo shocking, their no connection !!!
Send him to Guantanamo bay !! 👍👍👍
Mariann Pasquale Guantanamo bay is a prison where they baby the prisoners or at least now they do what you need to do is send him to the super max in Colorado 👌
Mariann Pasquale Hahahaha, good one Mariann.
Jacob Gabany super max would be perfect for him and his ego.
His arrogance is not good for prison life, he will suffer greatly in general population.
Amy Ears he will request PC or the religious pod
l'enfante terrible he couldn't keep a job, I wouldn't trust him or his diagnosis
He won't go to general. Probably will be put in isolation. Too bad huh?
George Parhnam acts like each time he ask a question there's supposed to be some aah aah moment!
Parnham is living off his one famous psychopath client, Andrea Yates. Who he didn't get off. And who he contacts weekly now she's a lifer 🙄 Pitiful excuse for professional and if he was cognitively tested, far too compromised to practice law.
He's such an a$$. "20/20 wants to do a huge show about me."
Big Bubba wants to do a big show about him too! It's going to be called hiding the weenie .... this guy is going to get punked out like a bitc! 😁😁
My God, Leon and Patricia gaslighted Patricia's 12-y.o. daughter about their relationship. Horrific.
Leon was and probably still is so disrespectful to his mom!
Good call
I mean who talks to their mother like he did on that collect call.
“I think she wants to sleep with me” and you can see how his narcissism was nurtured by his enabling mother tell him about that women who said he was beautiful.
Talking like that when your on a charge as grave as a solicitation to commit capital murder charge.
You can see where his priorities are.
I firmly believe that everyone and anyone who ever had any interaction with him we’re over joyed at the prospect of him getting a life sentence and never having to deal with any of his self absorbed dramas he created in his life.
I don’t know how she can stand talking to him. I could only listen to him about 60 seconds and I would be done. I have never heard someone so arrogant.
Does he really believe he's beautiful?
Windsor Castle yes! Just listen to how arrogant he is during the cross exam a few days ago. Leon walks in water in Leon’s eyes. It’s sickening!
Ick
And he thinks he’s common law married to Valerie. They only lived together 2 1/2 months.
I'm sure inmates at the TDC will see him that way.
Windsor Castle right! He's not! 👃
This guy is gross🤢 you did a great job mom. You can’t let your children rule your life after they’re adults.
It's ironic that as controlling as he was, every woman he mooched off either kicked him out or ended the relationship. It sounds like he was angry he was losing his sugar mamas.
Totally.
this leon is looking for fame and publicity " ohh how it would make a good book" he stated! Such an egotistic Narccisist Why he's so desperate for being caught HaHAHa!!
Gee, he didn't steal her glasses and passport? What a guy. SET LEON FREE!
43:16 If Leon truly cared about Mehgan, then why was he living with Valerie during this same time "he wanted to get back together" with Mehgan ??
He was a sofa surfer.
He foesnt listen talks about himsrlf and talks over the girl whoever she is all signs of a narc
Abusive manaic
Megan speaks like she's scared to open her mouth
The Old lawyer is painful to listen to.
Ms Pea-Pin yes he has no business in court!
Does anyone hear Columbo when Leon's lawyer speaks. ?? He pretends to not hear to get the witnesses to repeat themselves. 🤣😂🤯
Leon Jacob is a very dangerous man and should stay in prison the rest of his life !!!!!! It's certainly not surprising that he wasn't even able to get a job wasn't even able to finish his residency because nobody wanted to hire him
That wascally wabbit was dwinking alcohol.
ha ha ha, pretty boy
Worse defense lawyer ever.
Leslie is a girl you can count on.
Leslie is definitely ride or die!
I feel like he could've got a better defense attorney. That was brutal to watch
His own attorneys are damaged him more than the prosecution. They were all, each one of them, the worst attorneys I have ever seen. I can only assume that they hated him too and were doing convert Ops to ensure a guilty verdict.
Did his mom provide food for you?
Good god.
How embarrassing
It's amazing how this chick testifying is so afraid of Leon but wasn't afraid to cheat on her husband!
Her ex-husband didn't solicit to have her killed.
What does this comment have to do with anything? We didnt hear anything from her ex-husband. But we do know her ex-husband didnt hire anyone to kill her.
whay right do they have to listen to peoples conversations once they're convicted etc?
@Majowh you could not have put that any better...this wanna be doctor should never walk free again
???
Because some inmates continue to harass their victims even after being incarcerated. There’s also drug dealing going on.
They have lost ALL of their rights. Best thing is to live your life so as to NOT be incarcerated, it’s not difficult.
Witness intimidation is not only a crime, it can derail prosecution and release the criminal back to his life unchastened.
Cuz they could be putting hits on judges, running illegal businesses. C'mon man!
They got it wrong. TX is a hard state for innoconce..he's guilty of stalking but not m4h.
I wonder what Leon's kids are like. They've certainly did not have a good example.
you're proud to be related to a pos i bet
Dawn N what trial did you watch? Lol
Leon and arias would make a great couple. They could take turns stalking each other.
Ahahaha, i agree
Lol, great!
Hahaha now that's funny!!!!
Nah I already decided that Jodi should be cellmates with Russell Williams. I realise they are opposite genders, but Russ is already half way there in transitioning what with his underwear modelling. He just somehow needs to get to prison in Arizona.
Jen Weller Leon and Jody sitting in jail. Thinking of ways to raise some hell. One has a knife the other one to. Up pops Williams yelling peek a boo.
Paging Dr. Leon--Paging Dr. Leon--Please report to Dr. Bendover's Office Immediatley.
David Pierce Hahahaha
Love it!!!
Lmfao
😂😂
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😁😁😁😆😆😅😅👣👣👣👣👍👍👍👍
Come on Elmer Fudd. Jail call questions..is that the best you got?!
Painful to watch Meghan revictimized. .
Leon was an out of control dangerous man that NO women should ever have to tolerate!!!
OH MY GOD! the defense lawyers are even worse than Elaine Bredehoft and Rotten-born.
And the prosecutor is sharp as a razor - like Camille Vasquez.
Same thoughts here. I remember seeing this case On dateline, but I was looking for more trials to watch , and found this one crazy, fascinating and crazy!
Normal people just break up and move on. He is a perfect example of a malignant narcissist. Zero insight, zero remorse, the list goes on and on. Shame he is/ was, superficially only, a good catch.
Run the other way he's a creep
"I've put two people in the hospital since I've been in here... I am fighting for my life". LJ is the very definition of incorrigible.
Man this has got to be the old man's final hoorah. Absolutely awful the way he questioned Meghan at the penalty phase. It was quite disturbing when he asked her if it was appropriate for Leon to contact her mother so he can find her and hurt her? WTF! The look on her face was complete astonishment.
My thoughts exactly- I am not a lawyer and clueless in court procedures, but I think I could have represented Leon better
My thoughts exactly. There was a stark contrast between the two legal teams
yeah either he has dementia orrrr he wants Leon to go to prison as bad as everyone else lol
Give the psycho your dog and then drive to his enabling mother's house... she clearly was so frightened she wasn't thinking except to try and survive. The first time anyone speaks to or treats their partner in the ways she describes... please get out ...

Me you ma’am. So brave
He wants to get ($ell) a book and movie deal.
Why in the world is the defense attorney challenging what an 13 year old girl would have done? I know she's 19 now but she wasn't when Leon punched her brother.
These prison phone calls are delightful.
The defense lawyer is really insulting her. And i'm pretty soure he is not noticing how odd his behaviour is.
How many families does this guy have to ruin?
Omg it’s painful to watch this defense attorney. Hasn’t this ground already been covered? The questions are irrelevant.
Leon is mean and very vindictive.
At this trial all has caught up with him. He was so spoiled as a child and as an adult.
She gave the poor dog to the psycho.. Nice😡. Hope that dog has a loving, peaceful home now.
How did this creep attract so many women? Maybe with his lies...talk about how great and smart he is I suppose.
Patricia Devine and smart beauty successful ladies too🙄
@Patricia Devine....As soon as he mentioned...DOCTOR...all the GOLD DIGGER'S came running and look what they got!...ha! ha! ha!
Seems like they never stay. None of them were running after him
This guy is a menace to society.
If he got out with probation, his Mom and everyone else who stood up for him would again be “begging, begging, begging “ him to do what he should AND WOULD HAVE NO EFFECT ON HIM 😬
That old lawyer needs to be in a retirement home , reading Mills and Boon romantic novels: I mean, he didn't want to abuse, terrorise and kill these women he just wanted to love and look after them, living happily ever after........ he really id ga-ga.
57:10 The two cops in the back just listening to the tea.
Narc
Leon was psycho. That isn't love
When they'd ask Megan about his love for her, she did well. I wouldn't have been able to hold back saying "his behavior was obsessive, not love." Way more but love doesn't mean you're a possession to be punished for spending her own money, have rights to her own furniture w/o his conditions. This is far 2:13 beyond wanting to be in control but true pathos! What a pathos!
Defense team is absolutely pitiful!
PUKE 🤮🤮🤮🤮
He is nauseating. One can only hope that he was immediately put in his place on day one in prison.
42:49. Oh my god. The old lawyer is arguing the guilt/innocence phase instead of punishment!!!! 🤪 ?
WOW awesome questioning from the defense :oO.....NOT!!!! :oD
The defense lawyer 🤦♀️
She Left the dog to that monster!!!
Anne Morrison! Girl is beautiful, intelligent, and classy!!! Love how she handles herself!!!
Who is the defense working for?? LOL!! This has to be for an appeal.
beautiful
Anyone know where Valerie is in all this?
Courtney McGivern, didn’t she commit suicide?
She committed suicide while out on bail. She was a lovely person by all appearances - smart, successful, beautiful, kind but not doing well mentally when she met LJ. She allowed herself to be manipulated with devastating consequences (supposedly to keep custody of her daughter but that seems unlikely in light of her suicide - more likely it was about the money).
